IPC: G06T7/20
Filed: 2003-11-14
Abstract: The detection equipment includes detection matrices (8,9) acting in two different bands of infrared. To detect point sources, the system selects all the pixels of the matrix having a higher value than all their immediate neighbors, prior to a process of spatio-temporal filtering on successive images. This enables detection of point images forming a track.  The detection equipment may comprise for matrix detectors (1,2,3,4) situated at 90 degrees to each other in a horizontal plane, and a fifth detector arranged vertically and directed upwards. The detectors are fixed, and movement of the ship is compensated by a stabilization system acting on a platform (6). Each detector includes two detection matrices (8,9) acting in different bands of infrared. To detect point sources, the system selects all the pixels of the matrix having a locally extreme value - that is to say have a value much greater than all their immediate neighbors. This is followed by a process of spatio-temporal filtering on successive images in order to associate the selected pixels of one image with the other, but only if they are immediately neighboring in order to form a track.

Abstract: An analyzer for moisture or ash testing where a robotic arm retrieves
a crucible from a conveyor, inserts it into an opening in the upper
surface of a furnace chamber and deposits it in an aperture on a
carousel located within the furnace chamber. The carousel manipulates
the crucibles within the furnace chamber. The opening is positioned such
that when the carousel is ready for loading or unloading, an aperture in
the carousel is aligned with the opening. At appropriate points during
the testing cycle, individual crucibles are automatically deposited on a
weighing platform connected to an internal balance through vertical
motion of the carousel. Once final weighing in the test cycle is
performed, the crucible is removed through the opening on the upper
surface of the furnace chamber by the same robot arm which placed it in
the chamber.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device comprising a non-volatile memory with memory transistors and selection transistors. In this method a semiconductor body is provided with strip-shaped active regions ( 4 ) which are mutually isolated by field-oxide regions ( 3 of 4 ). On the surface ( 2 ) a first system of conductors 11 is then formed which are directed perpendicularly to the active regions and are covered by an insulating layer ( 12 ), charge storage regions ( 13 ) being formed below these conductors, at the location where these conductors and the active regions cross each other. These conductors form word lines of the memory and, at the location where said conductors and the active regions cross each other, they form control gates. Next, a conductive layer ( 16 ) is deposited and planarized. The planarized conductive layer ( 16 ) is then provided with an etch mask with strips directed perpendicularly to the active regions, which strips extend above and next to the conductors ( 11 ). Then a second system of conductors ( 19 ) is etched in the planarized conductive layer. The planarized layer here covers the conductors ( 11 ) with the insulating top layer ( 12 ) completely, so that the conductors ( 19 ) of the second system extend above the conductors ( 11 ) of the first system. Thus a very compact memory can be produced, enabling data written in the memory to be read out in very short times.

in which in feeding a hydrocarbon-containing gas to a
desulfurizing bed to remove sulfur compounds
contained in the above gas, used is the desulfurizing
bed constituted from a desulfurizing agent A
comprising zeolite and a desulfurizing agent B
comprising at least one selected from a metal element,
a metal oxide and a metal component-carried oxide,
and a production process of hydrogen for a fuel cell
in which a hydrocarbon-containing gas subjected to
desulfurization treatment by the above method is
brought into contact with a partial oxidation
reforming catalyst, an autothermal reforming catalyst
or a steam reforming catalyst. According to the
method of the present invention, combined use of two
kinds of the desulfurizing agents having different
desulfurizing performances and use of a raw material
gas having a low concentration of carbonyl sulfide
make it possible to efficiently remove all of sulfur
compounds contained in a hydrocarbon-containing gas
to a low concentration even at a room temperature.
Further, hydrogen for a fuel cell can economically
advantageously be produced by subjecting the 
desulfurization-treated hydrocarbon-containing gas
obtained by the method described above to reforming
treatment.
