Abstract: An optical displacement sensor is disclosed for use in robotic applications. The sensor can be used to examine the shape and surface texture of an object. In the embodiment which includes a compressible means of known spring constant, the sensor can be used to measure contract force. The position sensor uses an electro-optical displacement transducer to convert a displacement into an electrical output. The sensor utilizes a phototransistor to measure light emitted by an infrared light emitting diode. The amount of light received from by the phototransistor is varied by the displacement of the contact probe, or shadow rod. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A medical imaging system for communicating image information between a plurality of different input imaging devices having different input protocols and a plurality of different output imaging devices having different output protocols takes advantage of a reusable software architecture having a plurality of functionally independent components. The individual components can be configured in a communication pipeline to communicate image information between an input imaging device and an output imaging device according to desired protocols. Each component can be interchanged with a differently configured component to facilitate communication of image information according to a different protocol, thereby reconfiguring the pipeline to achieve significant flexibility. Moreover, the software architecture is scalable to produce a plurality of communication pipelines, each of which can be configured according to desired protocols. Thus, the system of the present invention can support a different protocol by either swapping components to reconfigure a single communication pipeline, or by simply selecting an alternative among a plurality of differently configured communication pipelines in the scalable architecture. Because each of the components is isolated and functionally independent, if redesign of a component is necessary, several programmers can be allocated to the effort with little added overhead, saving time and expense. The modularity of the architecture also enables necessary modifications or corrections to be made to a single component with little impact to the overall system.
