Abstract: A LIDAR scanning system has a rotating multifaceted polygon mirror (44) for transmitting modulated light (32) from one of its facets (45) to a surface. Diffuse light (52) reflected off said surface is received by another facet (54) of the polygon mirror (44) and reflected to a photo detector (64). The phase difference between the transmitted and received light (32, 52) is then used to compute the range of the surface from the scanning system. The intensity of the returned light is used to create a gray scale image of the surface. The use of separate optical paths for the transmitted (32) and returned (52) light, and a small scanned field of view results in an improved signal-to-noise ratio.

Abstract: In spectacles having a bridge connecting the rims of the lenses, the nose pad includes a single-piece bow which is fastened via a spacer element to a retaining plate having recesses, and which essentially rests only on the dorsum of the nose. In particular, the bow, spacer element and retaining plate are formed as a section of a single-piece moulded part, thus easily providing a further range of possibilities for adaptation to the individual anatomical features in the region of the spectacle wearer's nose, on the one hand, and to the spectacle model used, on the other hand.

Abstract: For determining the laminar structure and other characteristics of a ground, oscillation sensors (1, 2a, 2b, 2c) for detecting the vertical component or vertical and horizontal components of oscillations are disposed at three or more points (A, B1, B2, B3) within a comparatively small area at ground level to measure microseisms simultaneously at the respective points. If necessary, the locations of said points are varied. Measurements are performed at the respective locations and the vertical, or vertical and horizontal, oscillation data thus generated are analyzed. This method not only permits an expedient, positive and accurate assessment of the laminar structure and other characteristics of the ground but also allows the ground structure to be measured even when the area available for measurement is small.

Abstract: Metering roller (3) in the electrophotographic developer cartridge (1) is unsymmetrical along its length. As the metering roller rotates it distributes toner (11) both ways between one chamber (13) and another (19) to maintain an equilibrium level (31) between the chambers. The unsymmetrical roller simultaneously reduces and increases the area of one chamber (13), and possibly also provides a significant open path to the other chamber (19) across its flat surfaces (35), to inherently eliminate significant pressure build-up in that chamber (13). The need for a vent between the chambers is eliminated.

Abstract: A parallel array processor for massively parallel applications is formed with low power CMOS with DRAM processing while incorporating processing elements on a single chip. Eight processors on a single chip have their own associated processing element, significant memory, and I/O and are interconnected with a hypercube based, but modified, topology. These nodes are then interconnected, either by a hypercube, modified hypercube, or ring, or ring within ring network topology. Conventional microprocessor MMPs consume pins and time going to memory. The new architecture merges processor and memory with multiple PMEs (eight 16 bit processors with 32K and I/O) in DRAM and has no memory access delays and uses all the pins for networking. The chip can be a single node of a fine-grained parallel processor. Each chip will have eight 16 bit processors, each processor providing 5 MIPs performance. I/O has three internal ports and one external port shared by the plural processors on the chip. Significant software flexibility is provided to enable quick implementation of existing programs written in common languages. It is a developable and expandable technology without need to develop new pinouts, new software, or new utilities as chip density increases and new hardware is provided for a chip function. The scalable chip PME has internal and external connections for broadcast and asynchronous SIMD, MIMD and SIMIMD (SIMD/MIMD) with dynamic switching of modes. The chip can be used in systems which employ 32, 64 or 128,000 processors, and can be used for lower, intermediate and higher ranges. Local and global memory functions can all be provided by the chips themselves, and the system can connect to and support other global memories and DASD. The chip can be used as a microprocessor accelerator, in personal computer applications, as a vision or avionics computer system, or as workstation or supercomputer. There is program compatibility for the fully scalable system.

Abstract: A transmission system for transmitting a data signal with an analog passband signal through a analog transmission line (300). The data signal is transformed (21) to a signal representing a descrete data signal point in a vector signal space. The analog passband signal is transformed (25) to a base band signal, and the base band signal is superimposed (22) on the signal representing a discrete data signal point. A signal representing the superimposed data signal point is modulated (23) and transmitted through the analog transmission line. In a receiver, the data signal point is decided (45) from the signal representing the superimposed data signal point, and the superimposed base band signal is extracted (49) by subtracting the decided result from the signal representing the superimposed data signal point. The base band signal is transformed (53) to the analog passband signal. A portion of information carried by the analog passband signal may be converted to a digital signal, and the digital signal is multiplexed (254) with the data signal. Further, a portion of information of each of a plurality of analog passband signals may be converted (310) to a digital signal, and the digital signal is multiplexed (254) with each other, and the other portion of the information is transformed (50-1, 50-2) to a base band signal, and the base band signal is superimposed (22) on a signal representing a data signal point generated from a signal generated by the multiplexing.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing a meat-based food product, in which lean beef and/or pork, in a first step, is preminced in a mincer and is then finely chopped in a cutter and the protein broken down, with cooling by addition of chopped ice or snow and in which, moreover, fatty pork is added to produce a fine meat emulsion. By the process according to the invention, the fine meat emulsion thus produced is charged into moulds, then scalded with steam in the cooking cabinet at approximately 70@ to 75@C and the mass obtained is then cut into small pieces after cooling, preferably into rod-like strips. These rod-like strips, in a following step, are deep-fried in boiling fat for a relatively short period. A meat-based food product is thus obtained which is dimensionally stable without use of a casing and at the same time can be kept for a relatively long period, this food product being produced without the use of preservatives and protein substitutes.
