Inventor: MACFARLANE DARBY S
IPC: G01J3/46
Filed: 1998-12-18
Abstract: La présente invention concerne des procédés et des systèmes permettant de mesurer, grâce à un système de mesure de la couleur de caractéristiques prédéterminées comprenant un indice des couleurs, la couleur de la peau, des dents, des cheveux et de substances matérielles. La présente invention concerne également des techniques permettant d'utiliser ledit système de mesure de la couleur à indice des couleurs dans des applications médicales telles que la détection de maladies chromogènes y compris l'ictère du nouveau-né, dans des applications cosmétiques, dans l'évaluation de la couleur des cheveux ou des dents, et dans d'autres applications. On mesure et on calcule l'indice des couleurs à partir du spectre de réflectance de la peau (ou des dents, des cheveux ou d'autres substances matérielles) en deux étapes. Dans la première étape, on pondère les spectres visibles avec un ensemble unique de facteurs de pondération qui permettent de calculer la contribution du spectre de réflectance d'un échantillon à l'apparence de quatre composantes de couleur indépendamment des conditions d'éclairage. Dans la deuxième étape, on place chaque contribution du spectre de réflectance à l'apparence de chacune des quatre composantes de couleur en opposition avec les autres et on calcule l'indice des couleurs dont les attributs représentent les corrélations clair-obscur (L, luminosité), rouge-vert (M) et jaune-bleu (N).

Inventor: LUDWIG REINER
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1999-01-08
Abstract: A device and a method for controlling a data unit oriented
communication between a sender and a receiver are proposed. A
protocol is used according to which the sender divides an
amount of data to be sent into one or more data units having a
structure determined by said protocol, and the receiver
acknowledges the correct receipt of data units by returning
acknowledgment data units to said sender. The data units are
sent by said sender in accordance with a flow control procedure
that involves one or more adaptive parameters and said
acknowledgment data units. After a given data unit is sent, the
sender performs a data loss detection routine, and if a
triggering event occurs, a corresponding response procedure is
conducted, where this response procedure comprises at least two
different modes for adapting said one or more adaptive
parameters. In this way, the present invention is capable of
flexibly responding to a potential data loss event. Preferably,
there is a first and a second mode, where the first mode is
associated with the actual loss of a data unit, so that this
first mode comprises the conventional data loss procedures, and
where the second mode is associated with the recognition that
an excessive delay has taken place and not a loss of a unit, so
that specific measures adapted to this situation can be taken,
and the application of wrong measures that would make the
situation worse can be avoided.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method and an apparatus for registering, measuring, calculating,
and controlling a flow of fluid in a pipeline. The apparatus is primarily intended
for a flow of water for consumption in a pipeline from a water purification plant to a
household or to a number of households. The method and the apparatus are capable of
interrupting the flow of fluid in the pipeline when the amount of fluid through the
pipeline at a single tapping has exceeded a given maximum value, e.g. at the bursting
of the pipeline or at an unnecessary high consumption of water, e.g. by sprinkling of
gardens. The method and apparatus are, however, also capable of interrupting the flow
of fluid in the pipeline when the flow speed of the fluid through the pipeline falls below
a given minimum value while at the same time the flow amount exceeds
a given value for the flow amount, e.g. by dripping taps.

Abstract: Apparatus for inspecting a container (12) that includes a first light source
(14) for generating light energy of a first character and directing the light energy onto a
predetermined portion (20) of a container under inspection, and a second light source
(22) for generating light energy of a second character different from the first character
and directing such light energy onto the same predetermined portion of the container
under inspection. An area array light sensor (26) is disposed to receive a two-dimensional
image of the portion of the container illuminated by the first and second
light sources. The first and second light sources are sequentially and alternately strobed,
and first and second two-dimensional images of the container portion under inspection
are downloaded from the sensor. Commercial variations that affect optical properties of
the containers are identified by comparing the first and second two-dimensional images
from the respective light sources scanned from the sensor. The sensor preferably
includes facility (44,46,48) for scanning two-dimensional images in sequential frames,
and the first and second images are obtained by scanning sequential frames from the
sensor during which the first and second light sources are alternately strobed.

Abstract: An x-ray emitting window is formed at a front end face,
and a taper surface tilted with respect to the x-ray emitting
direction is formed near the emitting window, whereby an
object to be inspected can be prevented from abutting against
the front end face even if the object is pivoted about an
axis intersecting the emitting direction while the object
is disposed closer to the x-ray emitting window. As a
consequence, while the object is disposed closer to the x-ray
emitting position, the orientation of the object can be
changed. Therefore, when inspecting the internal structure
of the object and the like by irradiating the object with
x-rays and detecting the x-rays transmitted through the
object, not only a magnified penetration image of the object
with a high magnification rate is obtained, but also the
internal structure of the object and the like can be verified
in detail by changing the orientation of the object.

Abstract: En gravure par faisceau d'électrons, un système de gravure utilise plusieurs microcolonnes d'un groupement de microcolonnes pour augmenter la vitesse de gravure de plaquettes en semiconducteur. Le défaut d'appariement entre ledit groupement de microcolonnes et l'implantation des puces de semiconducteur peut être corrigé à l'aide d'une seule colonne, utilisée pour balayer chaque puce. Pour effectuer ce balayage, on doit s'assurer que l'étage portant ladite plaquette en semiconducteur se déplace dans la direction des x et dans la direction des y sur une distance supérieure à la distance séparant des puces adjacentes. Chaque puce est donc balayée à l'aide d'une seule microcolonne, et ce éventuellement à plusieurs reprises, au cours du déplacement sur l'étage.
