Abstract: A laser scanner for measuring the spatial properties of objects in a scene within a range less than a predetermined maximum object distance. A laser diode supplies a laser beam that is intensity-modulated by a reference waveform from a waveform generator. An optical scanning system scans the scene with the intensity-modulated laser beam, and receives reflected intensity-modulated light and supplies it to an optical processing system that includes an aperture that transmits a first percentage of light reflected from the maximum object distance and a second, lesser percentage of light reflected from objects closer than the maximum object distance. A photodetector receives the processed light and converts the energy into an amplitude-modulated range signal. A mixer down-converts the frequency into an IF frequency, and a first circuit converts the range signal to the form of a square wave. A phase comparator receives the processed range signal and the reference waveform and outputs a highly accurate signal indicative of the phase difference therebetween. In some embodiments a calibration target may be situated within the scene having a plurality of steps with predefined distances to use as a calibration for measurements of the spatial relationships within the scene.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un guichet (10) automatique de banque qui identifie et stocke des documents tels que des billets de banque déposés par un utilisateur et distribue de tels documents à l'utilisateur. Les guichets automatiques conventionnels utilisent des détecteurs d'épaisseur permettant de détecter la présence de doubles documents par la détection de la transmittivité de la lumière à travers une zone réduite du billet. Des défauts tels que le marquage, les taches ou la décoloration des notes peut rendre cette détection peu fiable. La présente invention résout ce problème grâce à l'utilisation d'un détecteur (810) d'épaisseur de feuille qui détecte la transmittivité de la lumière sur une largeur relativement importante du billet. Ce détecteur d'épaisseur comprend une source (822) de rayonnement. Le rayonnement émis par cette source est dirigé par un guide (824) de rayonnement vers d'une sortie (826) allongée sensiblement linéaire, transversale à la trajectoire de la feuille. Un récepteur (814) comprend un élément (830) sensible au rayonnement qui présente également un allongement transverse à la trajectoire des feuilles. Les feuilles passant entre l'émetteur et le récepteur induisent des variations dans la quantité de rayonnement atteignant le récepteur.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un dispositif permettant de tenir et plier une lentille intraoculaire, et conçu pour permettre au chirurgien de choisir entre la mise en place de la lentille intraoculaire dans un injecteur de lentille intraoculaire fixé amovible et un maintien de la lentille intraoculaire à l'état plié en vue de l'enlèvement au moyen d'un instrument séparé. Le dispositif de pliage comporte une paire de côtés opposés, présentant chacun une surface supérieure. Une pluralité de crochets de retenue prennent naissance verticalement sur surfaces supérieures de chaque côté. Les crochets sont conçus pour accueillir et retenir amovible l'injecteur de lentille intraoculaire. Une charnière qui réunit les côtés le long d'un axe de pliage, permet aux côtés de retenir entre eux la lentille intraoculaire. La charnière permet aux côtés de se replier l'un sur l'autre depuis une position plane selon un premier axe de pliage lorsqu'on utilise l'instrument séparé, et l'un vers l'autre selon un second axe de pliage lorsqu'on utilise un injecteur de lentille intraoculaire. Cela permet au chirurgien de choisir entre, d'une part fixer l'injecteur de lentille intraoculaire dans les crochets de retenue de façon que, lorsque les bords sont pliés selon le second axe de pliage, la lentille intraoculaire soit libérée des côtés, et vienne se charger dans la chambre de chargement, et d'autre part plier les côtés selon le premier axe de pliage de façon que la lentille intraoculaire soit pliée et maintenue à l'état plié.

Abstract: Détecteur de phase à correction automatique. La mise en application de deux détecteurs de phase identiques (21, 22) consistant à introduire un de ces détecteurs de phase et un déphaseur variable commandé (20) dans une boucle de rétroaction négative (23) déphase un signal d'horloge suffisamment pour que le signal déphasé corrige l'erreur de phase statique existante. Cette correction automatique permet d'améliorer la précision de la mesure de la différence de phase en limitant considérablement l'effet de l'erreur de phase statique. De plus, cette limitation reste réelle malgré les variations de processus, de température et de tension. Etant donné que l'invention présente un caractère inhérent d'insensibilité aux conditions de l'environnement, elle permet d'obtenir une diminution sensible des pièces défectueuses pendant la fabrication. Sa caractéristique d'adaptation automatique aux fluctuations de l'environnement permet, de plus, d'améliorer considérablement la facilité de sa conception.

Abstract: A digital interface microcomputer (DIFcon 7) sends/receives
an Audio Video/Control-Command Transaction Set (AV/C-CTS) between
it and other equipment connected by way of an IEEE-1394 serial bus (not
illustrated). DIFcon (7) also provides both way conversion between AV/C-CTS
and Local Application Control Bus System (LANC) signals. A mode
control microcomputer (Modecon, 8) sends/receives LANC signals between
it and the digital interface microcomputer (DIFcon, 7). A mechanism
control microcomputer (Mechacon 9) controls a mechanism (e.g. a Video
Tape Recorder) in accordance with commands sent from the mode control
microcomputer 8. Further, mechacon (9) informs the mode control
microcomputer 8 of the status of the mechanism. To enable the use by
other companies of every application developed originally by using IEEE-1394,
vendor unique, commands the DIFcon (7) when accepting a
target key code calculates an application key code based on a cipher
function and a target key code therefor. Then, it sends an opening
command for the application attached to the application key code. The
target, when accepting the opening command, decodes the target key code
in the command. Then if the decoded target key code matches a target key
code generated by the DIFcon 7, it allows execution of the command.
