Abstract: The present invention relates to providing a designer with the tools for
the manipulation of differential gloss in halftoned images. A special mask layer
is provided for the rendering of desired glossmark image data. The desired
glossmark image data is used to select between two halftones with anisotropic
structure characteristics which are significantly different in orientation while
remaining identical in density. This selection is made for each corresponding
portion of primary image data. In this way, a halftone image of the primary
image is generated with glossmarks imbedded therein which will display
differential gloss without the need for special toners or paper.

Abstract: An optical fiber preform includes a core rod and an overclad
tube having an open, distal end dimensioned to enter the mouth of a vertical
fiber draw furnace. A plug is fixed in the region of the distal end of the tube,
and the core rod is disposed axially inside the overclad tube so that a distal
end of the rod is restrained from downward movement by the plug as the
tube enters and descends into a hot zone of the draw furnace. The distal
end of the tube is heated in the furnace hot zone until the tube and the plug
soften and fuse with one another. The tube then collapses onto the core
rod to produce a drop from which an optical fiber having desired properties
may be drawn. The claims are directed to the preform comprising rod, tube
and plug and to a method of drawing an optical fiber from such a preform
comprising the steps of assembling and fixing the plug to the rod-in-tube
combination.

Abstract: When emitted light from LED 31 is incident on photodiodes 32 and 33 with
luminance Pa and Pb, currents ia and ib are generated according to luminance Pa and Pb.
When outside light is incident through the finger tissues on photodiodes 32 and 33 with
luminance Pc, current ic is produced. The current il (= ia + ic) generated by photodiode
32, and the current i2 (= -ib-ic) generated by photodiode 33, are added at node X, and the
current ic corresponding to outside light is thus cancelled. In addition, photodiodes 32 and
33 are disposed at different distances from LED 31. As a result, the current flowing to
opamp 34 is current ia corresponding to luminance Pa because luminance Pb is extremely
low. The opamp 34 then applies a current voltage conversion to generate pulse wave signal
Vm.
