Abstract: For each pixel in an array of pixels in a fingerprint
sensor, a fingerprint capacitor is defined by the
fingerprint-bearing skin of a user's finger proximate to the
top exposed surface of a sensing plate of the pixel. First
and second plates are embedded in dielectric material beneath
the sensing plate, and define therewith first and second
capacitors of a sensing element. The capacitance of the
fingerprint capacitor is coupled by the sensing element to
an amplifier. During a sensing operation, the amplifier
generates a pixel output signal that is a function of the
variable capacitance of the fingerprint capacitor, which
varies according to the presence of a fingerprint ridge or
valley appearing directly above the sensing plate when the
user's finger is in contact with the fingerprint sensor.

Abstract: A MEMS actuator 1 comprising an actuator member 2 operably engaged by at least
one actuator beam 4 and heating means 12 for heating the or each beam 4. The
heating may cause expansion of the or each beam 4, wherein the or each beam 4 has
two ends A, A' and the or each beam 4 is fixed at only one end A and wherein the
expansion effects movement of the actuator member 2. The heating may cause
thermal expansion of the beam 4 in one direction and longitudinal displacement of
the beam 4 in the direction of thermal expansion, which longitudinal displacement
effects movement of the actuator member 2. The beam 4 may act on the member 2 at
a position in relation to a pivot point P so as to produce a torque which effects
pivoting of the member 2 about the pivot point P. The actuator may have at least two
actuator beams 4 and heating the at least two beams 4 may cause simultaneous
expansion of the at least two beams 4, which simultaneous expansion effects
movement of the actuator member 2. Alternatively, heating one of the at least two
beams 4 may cause differential expansion of the at least two beams 4, which
differential expansion effects movement of the actuator member 2. The actuator may
have at least two actuator members 202 operably engaged by at least one actuator
beam 204 and heating the or each beam 204 may cause expansion of the or each
beam 204, which expansion effects differential movement of the at least two
members 202 or bending of the at least two members 202.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un dispositif et un procédé permettant l'analyse de l'état de santé d'un utilisateur. Le système et le procédé peuvent être utilisés pour la prédiction d'un état de santé futur anormal de l'utilisateur. Le système comporte un dispositif portable de réception d'informations, un dispositif de traitement d'informations et un dispositif de mémorisation et de traitement à distance. Les trois dispositifs peuvent être en communication entre eux via un système de communication. Le système peut comprendre un système GPS destiné à la localisation de l'utilisateur lorsque l'utilisateur présente un état de santé anormal. Le procédé consiste à recueillir le signal numérique provenant d'une pluralité de capteurs d'électrocardiographie sur le dispositif portable de réception d'informations et de former une onde QRS. On extrait un ou des points à partir de cette onde QRS afin de former une onde de complexe QRS. On utilise les ondes de complexe QRS pour l'analyse de l'état de santé de l'utilisateur. On calcule plusieurs paramètres à partir de ces points sur l'onde QRS. Si l'état de santé de l'utilisateur se trouve dans une plage anormale, alors une alarme sera déclenchée. Cependant si l'utilisateur ne se trouve pas dans une plage anormale, alors le système peut également prédire l'apparition future d'un état de santé anormal chez l'utilisateur.

Abstract: L'invention concerne la détection d'outils chirurgicaux utilisés au cours d'une intervention chirurgicale dans les tissus humains ou animaux. Des marqueurs rattachés aux outils chirurgicaux changent d'impédance à une fréquence présélectionnée en présence d'un champ électromagnétique. Chaque marqueur présente ainsi des caractéristiques d'identification de signal. Les caractéristiques d'identification de signal sont détectées par une unité de détection portable librement amovible à partir d'un premier emplacement proche du patient de manière précise et fiable. Les éventuelles interférences avec les instruments électroniques du bloc opératoire sont minimisées par blindage. Les exigences de coût et d'espace du système sont sensiblement réduits. Un outil chirurgical accidentellement oublié est détecté avant la fin de l'intervention chirurgicale et avant que le patient ne quitte le bloc opératoire. L'unité de détection portable est adaptée pour être transportée à un second emplacement à partir duquel les éventuelles interférences entre les champs électriques ou magnétiques au cours de l'utilisation du détecteur et des instruments électroniques utilisés pendant l'opération sont minimisées. Le patient est interrogé suite à la fermeture de la blessure en étant soumis à un champ d'interrogation généré par le détecteur d'outils chirurgicaux au niveau du second emplacement. Des signaux visibles et/ou sonores du détecteur indiquent un oubli accidentel d'un outil chirurgical avant que le patient ne se réveille.

Abstract: The invention concerns with connection of a lead from
an electrical component of an alternator (3; 4) for a
vehicle, and provides a terminal shape (24a; 21a; 23a)
suitable for TIG welding (arc welding using a gas shielded
non-consumable electrode) without being affected by
dimensional accuracy of terminals to be connected to each
other. Cross-shaped projections having a larger volume than
a welded region of the terminal is provided near the welded
region, and weld penetration (welding depth) is controlled
based on a difference in heat capacity resulting from the
volume difference, or melting is suppressed with promotion
of heat radiation. Thus, the welding depth is stabilized
without being affected by dimensional accuracy of the
terminals including relative positions between them, and an
alternator for a vehicle can be provided in which a lead
from an electrical component has high connection
reliability.
