Title: Multiple copy note pad
Inventor: GREIG WALTER G
IPC: B41L1/24
Filed: 1988-03-04
Abstract: By combining a pad having a repositionable adhesive with a carbonless imaging system, multiple copies of a writing on the top sheet of the pad are provided. These features have application in pads for memos, interoffice correspondence, and notes. A user may select the desired set of copies by removing the required number of sheets from the pad. If a divider is provided with each pad, e.g. a cardboard or a hard insert sheet, the multiple pages are imaged before they are removed from the pad by inserting the divider into the pad after counting the appropriate number of sheets to be copied. Thus, the divider prevents copying and imaging throughout the entire pad.

Title: System for altering the position of sailboat masts
Inventor: HAIGIS ERICH
IPC: B63B15/02
Filed: 1988-07-05
Abstract: Construction system with which the mast of sailing vessels can be changed in its position relative to the hull in accordance with the wind strength. The foot of the mast rests in a joint which permits the inclination of the mast both to either side and towards the stem and stern. The position of the mast is influenced via a weight displaceable laterally and forwards and backwards in the hull. The advantage of the present invention lies in the fact that the torques acting on the mast are compensated for by pendulum weights and are not transmitted to the hull. Due to the pendulum weight, the mast can be set in any position in which the wind force can be utilised to the maximum. <IMAGE>

Title: Control, calibration, and operation of a microbolometer array at ambient temperature
Inventor: WAND MARTIN A
IPC: G01J5/20
Filed: 2000-03-06
Abstract: A method for measuring the temperature of a scene using a detector having at least one reference pixel, with an integratable sampling circuit associated with each pixel. Initially, an ambient reference temperature is observed with the reference pixel(s) to provide a parameter, generally voltage, indicative of that temperature to provide a constant voltage output indicating that temperature by varying the sampling circuit integration time. Each non-reference pixel is exposed to different scene and ambient temperatures and the integration time for each set of data for each pixel is recorded. For each pixel, an equation is provided relating integration time to pixel voltage when the ambient temperature and the scene temperature are the same to correct for offsets and an equation is provided relating integration time and offset corrected pixel value to the difference between the ambient temperature and the scene temperature when the ambient temperature and scene temperature differ for correction of responsivity. An equation is provided relating integration time to ambient temperature for calculating ambient temperature. The voltage level for each of the pixels and the integration is determined, the offset correction for each pixel is calculated based upon the integration time and the offset correction is applied to the pixel value for each pixel. The responsivity corrected value is calculated for each pixel based upon the integration time and the offset corrected pixel value. The ambient temperature is calculated based upon the integration time and the temperature difference between the ambient temperature and the scene temperature for each pixel which is calculated based upon the responsivity corrected pixel value using a scale factor determined during calibration. The ambient temperature and the difference between the ambient and the scene temperatures are added to obtain the actual scene temperature.
