Abstract: A scale having first and second optical gratings on both surfaces of a transparent parallel portion or a scale having a common optical grating constituting the first and second optical gratings on one of the surfaces of the transparent parallel portion is prepared. A beam is radiated on the first optical grating of the scale to cause it to pass through the first optical grating, thereby two-dimensionally inverting an image of the first optical grating. The inverted image is projected on the second optical grating. The inverted image of the image of the first optical grating and the second optical grating are displaced in opposite directions upon travelling of the scale. A relative travelling between the inverted image and the second optical grating is larger than the travelling amount of the scale, thereby performing displacement detection with a high resolution.

Abstract: A method of generating an output video signal includes processing two or more input digital video signals so as to manipulate images that they represent and combining the processed signals to form the output video signal, which represents a composite image in which the manipulated images appear to fly through one another. In a first pass, a digital video effect generator (1) is supplied (4) with one of the input video signals and is responsive to data (5) representing at least the manipulation to which the image represented by that one input signal is to be subjected to process that one input signal to subject the image represented thereby to the manipulation intended for that image. The processed signal resulting from the first pass is recorded (VTR1). In at least one subsequent pass, the generator (1) is supplied with the other or another of the input video signals and is responsive to data representing the manipulations to which the images represented by all of the input signals are to be subjected to process the other input signal so as to subject the image represented thereby to the manipulation intended for that image so as to crop or remove from the manipulated image any one or more portions thereof to be hidden in the composite image. The processed signal resulting from the at least one subsequent pass is keyed (16) into the recorded signal resulting from the previous pass.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of making a high-temperature superconducting device in which a layer of an oxide which forms a high-temperature superconductor is deposited on a base and is then converted into a high-temperature superconducting ceramic. The invention also relates to a device of this type. It is envisaged that the oxide is deposited on the base in pre-oriented form, that the layer is rapidly fused and rapidly re-cooled, and that the layer is then annealed for the purpose of back reaction and directional recrystallisation. The high-temperature superconducting device according to the invention is distinguished by the fact that it contains YBa2Cu3O6.5+x and no Y2BaCuO5, which would result in the formation of microcracks. <IMAGE>
