Abstract: The invention comprises a composition and method for controlling the gloss of surface covering products through curing of the composition to create a wearlayer surface, and preferably on a floor covering product. The surface covering product preferably is prepared by application of an aromatic polyester acrylate composition including a flatting agent and/or hard particles, and at least one free-radical generating compound to a substrate, and then the coating is partially cured by exposure to low peak irradiance UV light in either ambient or inert air, followed by fully curing the coating with high peak irradiance UV light in preferably an inert atmosphere to form a low gloss abrasion resistant wearlayer surface. Alternatively, a high gloss wearlayer surface is obtained by solely exposing the preferred composition to high peak irradiance UV light in ambient atmosphere. Furthermore, a differential gloss flooring product is obtained by using the present inventive method described herein.  <IMAGE>

Abstract: A holder for an array of bundles containing multiple fiber optic strands provides a pattern of openings into which one each of each bundle is fit. The openings may (but need not) penetrate the full holder thickness to permit working with bundles from either bundle end. In one embodiment the holder thickness equals the bundle length, and the holder is sized similarly to a microscope slide. An alternative embodiment temporarily retains bundles in a desired registration and subjects the retained bundles to molten material such as wax that is allowed to harden around the bundles and become the holder. A modular holder comprises laminates that each contain parallel grooves sized to receive a bundle. A holder for a single bundle includes cooperating grip-like members, one of which is pivotably attached and biased toward the other member. A common form factor may be used for each holder type to facilitate retaining holders in a common docking station.

Abstract: A method of non-linear and linear scale-up or scale-down image resolution conversion of digital images. The method is based on using non-linear or linear pixel position control functions relating an output image pixel grid to an input image pixel grid, where resolution of each grid is different. The pixel position control functions enable calculation of real pixel position coordinates of output image pixels, embedded within the input image grid. A connection grid is set up as a graphical representation of using the pixel position control functions. Delta functional differences between real valued position coordinates of output pixels located in the connection grid, and neighbor pixel position coordinates located in the input image grid are defined and calculated. Linear combinations of known values of neighbor pixels in the input image grid, surrounding real valued pixel positions of output image pixels located in the connection grid, are used for calculating a new set of local coefficients for each output image pixel. A new value for each output pixel located in the output image grid is calculated by following a differential prescription for a two dimensional image using n neighbors, featuring an inner multiplication between a vector of the delta functional differences between pixel position coordinates, and a vector of the local coefficients. The method of this invention is applicable to cases of non-linear or linear, scale-up, scale-down, or mixed mode scale-up/scale-down image resolution conversion, and is extendable to a u dimensional image using v neighbors. Moreover, the method of this invention is applicable to interlaced or non-interlaced displays, featuring real time or still, digital color, grayscale, or black and white video images.

Abstract: Arrays of pyroelectric elements are used in surveillance systems by focusing the radiation from a scene on to them and examining the output from the array. If an object is moved into the scene and left stationary, it will hinder the subsequent operation of the system by masking part of the scene from the field of view of the array; this fault condition may be detected by the following procedure. At intervals arrangements are made to move the image of the scene to and fro across the array using a suitable transducer and the outputs from the array are examined. The outputs from the array when the scene is in its normal condition and the image is moved across the array comprise a set of signals corresponding to a reference image, which may be compared with the corresponding outputs from the array when the image is moved across the array on a subsequent occasion. Change between the reference image signals and subsequent image signals are interpreted in terms of the introduction to, or removal of, objects from the scene. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A transducer for measuring the relative velocity of movement of a body in a liquid or gaseous medium employs no reciprocating parts and functions by sensing the force applied to a diaphragm (6) die to its movement through the medium or the movement of the medium towards the diaphragm. The speed transducer makes use of a Hall effect solid state device (7) that produces an output when a magnetic field is applied to either of its surfaces. The level of the output voltage is proportional to the velocity of movement in the positive direction, i.e. when the force acts on diaphragm (6) in (FIG. 1). Since the transducer takes into account differential forces, an unwanted common force acting on both diaphragms simultaneously will have no effect on the measured speed. The tubular body (1) in which the Hall effect device is located may be made from any non-magnetic material suitable for the environment in which the transducer will be used.
