Abstract: A radio-controlled timepiece with an internal antenna
improves affords an improved design and appearance in the case
member, reduces manufacturing cost, and affords a smaller
timepiece. The radio-controlled watch 1 has an case member 9,
and an antenna 21 rendered inside the case member 9. The antenna
21 has a core 211 and a coil 212 wound to the core 211. At least
both end portions 211A of the core 211 are disposed along the
inside surface 91A of the case member 9. Because the ends 211B
of the core 211 are not opposite the inside surface 91A, the
antenna 21 can be located close to the case member 9 without a
drop in antenna performance. A metal case member 9 can therefore
be used for an improved design and appearance, production cost
can be reduced because notches need not be formed in the case,
and the radio-controlled watch 1 can be made smaller.

Abstract: A robot control system 2 for controlling a position and an attitude of a robot head 1a is provided with an operating head 3 held by an operator and a sensor 4 for detecting a position and an attitude of the operating head. 
     An attitude recognition portion 24 of the control means recognizes an initial attitude of the operating head when a control switch 12 provided at the operating head is turned on, and acquires a displacement vector from the initial attitude by a change in the attitude of the operating head. 
     An attitude conversion portion 25 converts the displacement vector from the initial attitude to a displacement vector from the reference attitude corresponding to a predetermined reference attitude, and the control means makes the attitude of the robot head follow the displacement vector from the reference attitude. 
     In whatever attitude the operator holds the operating head, the position and the attitude of the robot head can follow the change in the position and the attitude of the operating head.

Abstract: Provided are methods for accurately measuring nozzle 50 flow areas of new or refurbished gas turbine engine vanes 14. A first vane 114 is suitably fixtured in a laser scanning system 60 comprising a laser spot projector 82 a laser spot sensor 84, a multi-axis controller 68 and a computer 78. According to a nozzle flow area measurement method, a convex surface 38 and a concave surface 40 of a first vane 114 are scanned and stored as point clouds 196, 296 with the system. The point clouds 196, 296 are combined into a point cloud 396 and translated to a reference coordinate system 98. A point cloud 496 representing a nominally sized, second vane 214 is positioned adjacent to one surface of the combined point cloud 396. An inlet profile 56 is extracted from the intersection of an inlet plane 58, perpendicular to a combustion gas flow vector 18 direction, and each point cloud 396, 496. A nozzle 50 flow area is then accurately calculated using integration techniques from the inlet profile 56. The process is repeated for the second surface of the first vane 114. In another method, a combined point cloud 396 of a second vane 214, which is also scanned using the scanning system, replaces the nominal point cloud 496. The nozzle 50 flow area between the first 114 and second 214 vanes is then measured using the earlier described method steps.
