Patent EP-1340104-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MENIERE JEROME
IPC: G06T7/20
Filed: 2001-12-05
Abstract: A method and system for detecting an object in a zone located proximate to an interface between two liquid and/or gaseous media having different refractive indices, for example of the air/water type. The method and system produce at least a video image of the interface and the zone and produces electric signals representing each video image. Then, the electric signals are digitized and the data is processed by discriminating the data corresponding to the video image of the real object from those corresponding to the apparent video image generated by the interface.

Abstract: A light source initially emits a low-level pilot light and the light reflected from the filling generates a control signal from a sensor. The main polymerization light is only switched on when the exit window is at a defined distance from the filling. The short duration pilot light can alternate periodically with the polymerization light and the timer is switched off. <??>A light source (4) initially emits a low-level pilot light and the light reflected from the filling (2) generates a control signal from a sensor (8). The main polymerization light is only switched on when the exit window (6) is at a defined distance (a) from the filling (2). The short duration pilot light can alternate periodically with the polymerization light and the timer (15) is switched off till the correct distance (a) is reached again. The timer (15) activates an acoustic (16) or visual signal to indicate the end of the polymerization process. The pilot and polymerization light can be produced by the same light diodes focussed on a common light guide (5) with the lenses ground into the ends. The emitting and sensor diodes are controlled singly or in groups by a controller (13) and the sensitivity of the sensor (8) is restricted to the wavelength range of 400 to 500 nm.

Abstract: In a plate producing apparatus which consecutively produces
a set of four plates, a wait time is conventionally observed to
await the feeding of a plate in an image recording section in the
case where the set of plates is switched. In order to solve this
problem, a multi-cassette section 14 horizontally moves a
selected one of a plurality of cassettes 31 to an autoloading
section 15. The autoloading section 15 moves the cassette 31
after undergoing the horizontal movement to a plate feeding
position through up-and-down movements, retrieves a plate P from
that cassette 31, and feeds the plate P to an image recording
section 16. The image recording section 16 winds the plate thus
fed around a recording drum 36, records an image thereon by means
of a recording head 37, and releases the recorded plate from the
recording drum 36 so as to be ejected. While the image recording
section 16 is recording an image on the plate, a CPU 11 receives
control information C associated with a next plate, and causes
the multi-cassette section 14 and the autoloading section 15 to
sequentially operate by using the control information C.

Abstract: The present invention is intended to simplify the user's
initial setup operation when connecting a new network device
to a network built in his/her house/room and prevent connection
of a different network device unknown to said user. A network
connection management device, when receiving a network
connection request from a new network device, sends the request
to other network devices connected already to the network so
as to be displayed on their displaying means to prompt the user
to make an operation for confirming the request. The
confirmation data inputted by the user through the inputting
means of the network device is sent to the network connection
management device, which then determines whether to permit the
connection to said network. When the decision result is YES
(permit) , the new network device is connected to the network.

Abstract: A cartridge handling apparatus includes cartridge storage magazines which
define cartridge storage slots therein. A projecting element (36,38) positioned on a back
inside wall of each of the storage slots of the storage magazines fits into a recess (40) in
the cartridge when the cartridge is oriented in a proper orientation so as to permit the
cartridge to be fully inserted into the storage slot in the proper orientation. The
projection prevents full insertion of the cartridge in the cartridge storage slot when the
cartridge is not in the proper orientation. By changing the orientation of the
projection, the storage slot accepts cartridges in a different orientation as the proper
orientation. An apparatus (32) is mounted on the storage magazine to determine if the cartridge
is fully inserted. This apparatus can be a snap lock (32) on each of the storage slots to engage the
cartridge when fully inserted therein.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for creating a file for forming a 3-D print using
a 3-D printing system. The 3-D print may be a print master comprising a
plurality of 3-D structures formed on a substrate, each 3-D structure
having a height with respect to the substrate. A two-dimensional source
image is input comprising a plurality of image pixels. A filtered image
is obtained by applying a topographic operator to the source image to
generate for every image pixel a representation of a pixel height
profile, the pixel height profile corresponding to cross-sections
through a 3-D structure which is to be formed by 3-D printing. Thereby
definitions of a plurality of image layers are generated from the
filtered image for forming layers that are stacked using the 3-D
printing system. The file is output based on the plurality of image
layers. 
     The topographic operator has the following property: 
any cross-section through a solid section of a 3-D structure at a second
level in the 3-D structure which is closer to the substrate than a first
level has an area which is equal to or larger than the area of the
cross-section of the 3-D structure at the first level.

relationship between stator and translator of the planar motor is determined by:

sufficient to cause vibrations of said translator having an amplitude less than the period of
said periodic magnet structure;   measuring said vibrations of said translator; and   determining the phase relationship between said translator and said stator on the
basis of said measured vibrations.    
     Alternatively, the relationship between stator and translator is be determined by
detecting means detecting distinct optical marks on the periodic magnet array. Control
means determine the relationship between said translator and said stator on the basis of
detected distinct optical marks.

Abstract: A system and method for generating motion and trajectory data for
a multi-gimbaled rotating platform. The system includes a motion generating unit
for generating a set of motion equations for each degree of rotational freedom of
the multi-gimbaled rotating platform, where each set of motion equations defines
the rotational movement of the platform about a gimbal pivot axis between a
starting position and an ending position. The movement characteristics of the
gimbals are provided to the motion generating unit for generating a set of motion
equations which define the movement of the gimbals between the starting
position and the ending position of the rotating platform. The set of motion
equations simulating movement of the rotating platform may be further utilized to
generate trajectory data for the object being supported by the platform, so that the
effect of the motion of the rotating platform on the object can be simulated
without requiring the rotating platform to be actually moved in a field test.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a power management system and method for a
computer system. The current ACPI specification defines data that should be saved to
a non-volatile storage medium to recover from a sleeping state. However, the ACPI
specification does not support restoration of the system context following a power
failure during a sleeping state. The RAM image includes all applications and data that
are currently resident in RAM together with device register values that may be lost
during a reduced power consumption state of the computer system. It will be
appreciated that it takes a significant amount of time to collate and save the data
required to maintain the system context of the client machine. Suitably, the present
invention provides for saving, to a non-volatile storage medium, data representing
only a portion of the system memory context. Saving the only the useful portions of
the system memory context results in fewer bytes needing to be saved to the non-volatile
storage medium. This, in turn, saves power since the non-volatile storage
medium is operable for a shorter period of time. There are fewer read/write
operations and preferably fewer disk-head movements in the case of an HDD.
