Abstract: It comprises two systems mechanically supported by a mobile bar (3). The first system is an indirect measurement system and consists of a Lambertian target (1) diffusely reflecting the incident radiation thereon. A CCD camera (10) records in matrix form of illumination levels the thermal radiation reflected by the Lambertian target (1) when it is stopped in the area object of study. The second system is a direct measurement system and consists of a set of thermopile-type fast response calorimeters assembled in a calorimeter bar (2), without cooling by water and located adjacent to the Lambertian target (1). When these calorimeters pass in front of the area to be studied, they collect precise measurements of the incident power density thereon, without needing to stop. The incident power measurements obtained with both systems can thus be compared, improving the reliability of the measurement.

Abstract: The machine has a grouping device and a feeding arrangement (2). The containers (5) are successively fed to a work station (20) with pre-determined supplies. The containers are on the feeding arrangement. The grouping device has a sensor element (70) detecting the supply of the containers and a first stopper element (6a, 60a) which stops the movement of the first container. A second stopper element stops the movement of a following container. The detection time of the supply of a container and the speed of the feeding arrangement is determined while the feeding arrangement of the container is supplied. The feeding arrangement is a continuously running conveyor. The stopper elements are adjustable in such a manner, that the containers are at a predefinable distance to each other after grouping.

IPC: G06F11/36
Filed: 2005-09-15
Abstract: Various new and non-obvious apparatus and methods for ensuring a user interface element is visible within an automated user interface test environment are disclosed. One of the disclosed embodiments is a method for locating a parent element of the user interface element and then making the user interface object visible using top-down scrolling, bottom-up scrolling, expanding, or a combination of all three. Top-down scrolling scrolls the parent element until the user interface element becomes visible. Bottom-up scrolling first locates a grandparent element. The parent element then scrolls until the user interface element is within the parent object. The grandparent element is then scrolled until the parent element is visible within the grandparent element, the parent object is then scrolled until the user interface element is visible within the grandparent element. This exemplary embodiment further confirms that the user element interface made visible can be selected by ensuring that the window where the user interface element resides is ready for user input and is not covered by another object.

Preferred anionic groups are sulfonates and sulfates. Preferred carrier molecules include carbohydrates, polymers, peptides, peptide derivatives, aliphatic groups, alicyclic groups, heterocyclic groups, aromatic groups and combinations thereof.
Patent EP-1592227-A3 (EP)
Inventor: SHIRAIWA YOSHINOBU
IPC: H04N1/407
Filed: 1996-07-31
Abstract: In converting image sensing data into image data, a plurality of image sensing data meeting a predetermined condition are processed as a group of image sensing data. An image reproduction parameter is obtained from this image sensing data group, and each image sensing data of the image sensing data group is converted into image data by using the image reproduction parameter. Accordingly, an image reproduction parameter for obtaining an optimum reproduced image can be accurately set from the image sensing data group. Also, since a reproduction luminance level (range) is determined from the image sensing data group, the correlation between the luminances of image planes is not lost. This allows an easy comparison of reproduced images and prevents the boundaries of luminances from becoming unnatural when the reproduced images are synthesized.
