Abstract: A touch system includes a reference frame, and at least two cameras
having fields of view that overlap within the reference frame. The position of an
object relative to the reference frame is determined from captured images of the
object based on triangulation. The fields of view of the at least two cameras are
rotated with respect to the coordinate system of the reference frame to define offset
angles. The touch system is calibrated by:
   capturing an image of the object using each the at least two cameras at
at least one location within the reference frame; and   for each location:
   determining the position of the object within each image, the
position of the object within each image being represented by an angle , the angle
being equal to the angle formed between an extremity of the field of view extending
beyond the reference frame and a line extending from the camera that intersects the
object within the image; and   mathematically calculating the offset angles of the at least two
cameras based on the angle determined for each image and the positions of the at least
two cameras relative to the coordinate system assigned to the reference frame.

Abstract: To provide a movement-detecting altimeter designed so as
to be capable of avoiding excessive accumulation of errors.
The movement-detecting altimeter has a movement dependent
altitude updating unit which updates an indicated altitude
when a moving condition is maintained, and which avoids
updating of the indicated altitude when the moving condition
is not maintained. The movement dependent altitude updating
unit has an estimated altitude computation section which
obtains an estimated altitude by regarding as a change in
altitude a variation in reference altitude obtained from the
latest detected pressure value and the preceding detected
pressure value obtained by a pressure detection unit when the
moving condition is maintained, an abnormality determination
section which makes a determination as to whether or not the
estimated altitude is an abnormal value, and an altitude
indication setting section which sets, as an altitude to be
indicated, a designated altitude based on the reference
altitude when the abnormality determination section determines
that the estimated altitude is an abnormal value, and which
sets the estimated altitude as an altitude to be indicated
when the abnormality determination section determines that the
estimated altitude is not an abnormal value.

Abstract: In a method of calibrating a quadrature transmitter (1), a first calibration signal (DS1) is injected into an in-phase transmit branch (7,8,9) of the quadrature transmitter, and a second calibration signal (DS2) is injected into a quadrature transmit branch (11,12,13) of the quadrature transmitter. The first and second calibration signals are injected before performing up-conversion (10,14) in the transmitter and are produced by first and second digital signals. A detector (17) detects an up-converted signal. The detected up-converted signal is digitized (18). The in-phase and quadrature transmit branches are calibrated by alternately determining the first and second calibration signals while at least varying respective most significant bits of the first and second digital signals, upon said varying the at least most significant bits keeping calibration bit values that correspond to minimum values of the digitized detected up-converted signal.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un résonateur optique conçu pour altérer sa tendance à élaborer des modes spatiaux transversaux d'ordre supérieur. Le résonateur optique selon l'invention contraint des modes transversaux d'ordre supérieur à être fondamentalement instables, permettant ainsi d'obtenir à la fin un fonctionnement de résonateur en mode transversal unique. Plus précisément, la forme du miroir de déflexion de phase liée ou le profil de lentille d'intracavité est adapté de manière à confiner le mode fondamental tout en rendant les modes d'ordre supérieur instables. Le résonateur selon l'invention peut être mis en oeuvre dans des dispositifs à résonateur optique MEMS/MOEMS par suppression des modes latéraux et par accroissement du rapport de suppression de mode latéral (SMSR), ainsi que par amélioration de la tolérance au SMSR par rapport à un alignement externe du dispositif, par exemple. Le résonateur selon l'invention peut également être mis en oeuvre pour obtenir un fonctionnement en mode transversal unique dans des résonateurs lasers, tels que dans des lasers à émission de surface à cavité verticale semi-conducteurs.

Abstract: A power converter for controlling power flow between first and second voltages has the following structure. A common connection links a first polarity of the first and second voltages, and a first electrode of a capacitance is coupled to the common connection. First and second switches are connected in series between the common connection and the second electrode of the capacitance, and the second polarity of the first voltage is coupled through a first inductance to the connection between the first and second switches. Third and fourth switches are also connected in series between the common connection and the second electrode if the capacitance, but the second polarity of the second voltage is coupled through a second polarity of the second voltage is coupled through a second inductance to the connection between the third and fourth switches. A controller controls the operation of all the switches in order to control the power flow between the first and second voltages. The circuit can be controlled in a variety of ways. For example, if the first switch is opened and the second closed while the third and fourth switches operate alternately, the second voltage is less than the first voltage. In general, however, controlling the alternating switching of the first and second or the third and fourth switches determines the ratio between the first and second voltages.

Abstract: Methods are provided for overwriting data in a probe-based data storage device (1)
wherein data is represented by the presence and absence of pits formed in a storage surface
(4) by a probe of the device. Input data is first coded such that successive bits of a first value
in the coded input data are separated by at least one bit of the other value. Overwrite data bits
ν 0 ,ν 1 ,ν 2 ,..., are generated from the coded input data bits  b   0 , b   1 , b   2 , ..., and the overwrite data
bits ν 0 ,  ν   1 , ν 2 ,..., are then used to overwrite data on the storage surface (4). According to a
first method, the overwrite data bits are generated such that, if a pit represents a bit of said
first value in the data storage device (1) then ν   i    =    b   i     -1  for i ≥ 1 and ν 0  has said first value,
and if a pit represents a bit of said other value in the data storage device (1) then  ν i    =  b i-     1  for  i 
≥ 1 and ν 0  has said other value. According to a second method, the overwrite data bits are
generated such that, if a pit represents a bit of said first value in the data storage device (1)
then ν i  =    b   i-     1  (   b   i     -2  +  b i   ) for  i  ≥ 2, ν 0  has said first value and ν 1  =    b     0 , and if a pit represents a
bit of said other value in the data storage device (1) then ν i =(   b   i     -1 (   b   i     -2   + b i   )) for  i  ≥ 2, ν 0 
has said other value and ν 1  =  b   0 . With both methods, the result of the overwrite operation is
to record either the coded input data  b   0 , b   1 , b   2 ,..., or its complement    b     0 ,   b     1 ,   b     2 ,..., depending
on whether a pit represents a bit having the first value or a bit having the other value. This
result is independent of the bit values of the data which is overwritten.≥
