Inventor: RODRIGUES ALLAN BLASE JOSEPH
IPC: G06K9/00

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé informatisé amélioré et un programme qui permet de guider un utilisateur carrossier-peintre à travers le ou les ajustements d'une couleur de peinture de refinissage candidate formée à partir d'une combinaison d'un nombre prédéterminé de teintes de T1 à Tn, jusqu'à une couleur de peinture cible prédéterminée.  Le procédé de l'invention consiste à afficher un rendu d'une couleur de peinture cible prédéterminée et d'une couleur de peinture de refinissage candidate initiale dans un premier et un second champ respectif d'un moniteur vidéo.  La couleur de peinture cible prédéterminée correspond à un point de couleur cible prédéterminé dans un espace de couleurs multidimensionnel tandis que la couleur de peinture de refinissage candidate initiale correspond à un point de couleur candidate initiale dans l'espace de couleurs multidimensionnel.  Chaque teinte est également affichée dans un champ respectif du moniteur vidéo.  En réponse à la sélection de l'une des teintes, une analyse vectorielle est utilisée pour calculer un point de couleur candidate actualisée dans l'espace de couleurs multidimensionnel.  Un point de couleur candidate actualisée est défini par l'addition d'un vecteur d'ajustement des couleurs à un vecteur se terminant à la position de la couleur candidate dans l'espace de couleurs multidimensionnel.  Le vecteur d'ajustement des couleurs représente l'amplitude avec laquelle et la direction dans laquelle une quantité d'ajustement prédéterminée de la teinte choisie déplace le point de couleur candidate dans l'espace de couleurs multidimensionnel.  Lors de la sélection d'une teinte, un rendu d'une couleur de peinture de refinissage candidate actualisée correspondant au point de couleur candidate actualisée dans l'espace de couleurs multidimensionnel est affiché dans le second champ.

Abstract: La présente invention a trait à des systèmes et des procédés pour le multiplexage d'au moins deux canaux d'un système de distribution de clés quantiques (QKD). Le procédé comprend le formatage du signal optique de canal public (SP1) dans un format de remise à zéro (RZ) dans un émetteur (T) dans une station QKD (Alice) et l'amplification de ce signal (formant ainsi SP1*) juste avant la détection de ce signal avec un détecteur (30) dans un récepteur (R) à l'autre station QKD (Bob). Le procédé comprend également le déclenchement périodique précis du détecteur via un élément de déclenchement périodique (40) et un signal coïncident (PN1') avec des impulsions qui coïncident avec les instants d'arrivée prévus des impulsions dans le signal (électrique) de canal public détecté. Cela permet au canal public d'avoir une puissance nettement inférieure, le rendant plus apte pour un multiplexage avec les autres signaux QKD.

Abstract: A method of investigating the location and size of a light emitting source in a subject is disclosed. In practicing the method, one first obtains a light intensity profile by measuring, from a first perspective with a photodetector device, photons which (i) originate from the light-emitting source, (ii) travel through turbid biological tissue of the subject, and (iii) are emitted from a first surface region of interest of the subject. The light-intensity profile is matched against with a parameter-based biophotonic function, to estimate function parameters such as depth and size. The parameters so determined are refined using data other than the first measured light intensity profile, to obtain an approximate depth and size of the source in the subject. Also disclosed is an apparatus for carrying out the method.

Abstract: A vehicle has a vehicle body and a vehicle bonnet assembly. The vehicle bonnet assembly includes a bonnet (14) hinged at its front to the vehicle body (10) and latched at its rear by two latch devices. Each latch device comprises a latch assembly (17) mounted to the vehicle body (10) and a striker (21) mounted to the bonnet (14). Impact sensors are configured to detect a front collision with a pedestrian and two lift actuators (18) are arranged to raise the rear edge of the bonnet (14) into a deployed position in response to a pedestrian impact. Each latch assembly (17) includes a latch claw (26) moveable between a latch position in which the striker (21) is held by the latch claw (26) and a release position in which the striker (21) is releasable from the latch claw (26). Each latch assembly (17) also includes a release member (27) which is operable by a driver of the vehicle to allow the latch claw (26) to be moved towards its release position and allow the bonnet (14) to be lifted. A release actuator (32) is arranged to move the release member (27) and allow the latch claw (26) to be moved towards its release position and retain it in said position when the bonnet (14) is lifted by the lift actuators (18) in the event of a pedestrian impact. Each release actuators (32) is retained by a spring clip (37) which is attached to one end of a release tape (38) whose other end is connected to one of the lift actuators (18). The release tape (38) is normally hidden by the bodywork under the bonnet (14). However, when the bonnet (14) is moved to the deployed position by the lift actuators (18), the tape (38) is exposed and can be pulled to release the clip (37). The release actuator (32) can then pull away, allowing the latch assembly (17) to be re-set.
