Abstract: An optical detection device for use in a color sorting
apparatus for granular objects includes a CCD linear sensor
(7). The CCD linear sensor (7) comprises a plurality
of light receiving elements (7a) arranged in one row each
of which is capable of detecting red, green and blue wavelengths.
The CCD linear sensor (7) receives light from a
granular object and a background (12) which are irradiated
by a red light source (14), a green light source (15) and
a blue light source (16). The red, green and blue light
sources are switched over while the granular object is
passing within an optical detection area (X). The CCD linear
sensor receives light from the granular object in synchronization
with the above switching operation of the
light sources (14, 15, 16).

Abstract: A gas heater has a burner, a porous body including
two porous body blocks, an air supply/discharge fan,
and an exhaust pipe opening/closing valve for selectively
opening and closing an intermediary exhaust pipe which
provides communication between one of the two porous body
blocks, and an exhaust passage. When a capacity selector
switch is shifted to a "high capacity" position, a controller
opens the exhaust pipe opening/closing valve to heat
both the porous body blocks with combustion exhaust gases
from the burner, providing an effective heating area of a
larger diameter on the upper panel. When the capacity selector
switch is shifted to a "low capacity" position, the
controller closes the exhaust pipe opening/closing valve to
heat the other of the porous body blocks with combustion
exhaust gases from the burner, providing an effective heating
area of a smaller diameter on the upper panel.

Abstract: A light source unit capable of considerably reducing the size of a vehicular lamp
An LED is mounted on an optical axis extending in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle
with its light output directed upward, and a reflector is provided above the LED having a
first reflecting surface for collecting the light emitted by the LED and reflecting the light
generally in the direction of the optical axis Ax. The first reflecting surface is formed in
such a manner that a distance L in a vertical direction from the LED to the first reflecting
surface is approximately 10 mm in a preferred embodiment. Consequently, the size of the
reflector can be considerably reduced as compared with reflectors employed in conventional
vehicular lamps. Moreover, the LED used as a light source emits little heat, the reflector
can be designed without having to take into account the influence of heat generated by the
light source. Furthermore, the LED can be treated substantially as a point light source so
that proper reflection control can be carried out even if the size of the reflector is reduced.
By mounting the LED so that its light output is directed substantially orthogonal to the
optical axis Ax, moreover, it is possible to effectively utilize most of the light emitted by the
LED and reflected by the first reflecting surface.

unit oscillates the light projected by the light projector unit in two dimensions, so that the
projected light scans an incident surface in a raster pattern. At the same time, the frequency
generation and modulation unit modulates the light produced by the light projector unit in
synchronization with the scanning process and image data supplied so that the projected light
produces images corresponding to the image data over a scanned area.

Abstract: A curve's radius of a road on which a vehicle shall run is estimated based on actual speed, yaw rate, and steering angle of the vehicle. Accordingly, during a transition state of the vehicle, the curve's radius can be estimated with the actual yaw rate taking into account the actual steering angle that can reflect more accurately turning behaviour of the vehicle than the actual yaw rate. Therefore, errors in the estimation of the curve's radius due to response delay of the actual yaw rate can be easily reduced even though the yaw rate is used for such estimation.

Abstract: The present invention is a method and apparatus for testing random numbers generated by a random-number generator in real time. A stream of random bits generated by the random-number generator is segmented into a predefined block of bits, then these blocks undergo a gap-length-calculation operation in which it is determined for which specific range the gap belongs to, then these gap length values are applied to an exponential-counting operation to obtain and update gap-frequency values for different bit patterns and gap ranges. Thereafter, the updated gap-frequency values are compared to at least one predetermined acceptance range, so that if at least one of the gap-frequency values falls repeatedly outside the predetermined acceptance range more than a predetermined number of times, it is determined that the generated random bits are insufficiently random.
