Abstract: A device and method for aberration-free imaging of the fundus of the human eye includes a light source, an active mirror for directing light from the light source to and from the fundus and imaging units for viewing the fundus. A sensor compares the wavefront reflected from the eye with an aberration-free wavefront to establish an error signal, and the error signal is used to program the active mirror to remove aberrations from the reflected light. Importantly, all of this is done by focusing the light to a focal spot on the fundus which has three dimensional volumetric measurements, i.e. point spread function (PSF), of as small as approximately 2µm x 2µm x 20µm. The imaging units include an ellipsometer and a fluoroscope, and the light source can be a laser diode or an AP-diode.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for performing biometric identification or verification of identities using optical spectroscopy of tissue. Tissue optical spectra can be obtained by projecting optical radiation into skin and capturing the light transmitted or reflected back and out through the tissue. The tissue spectra collected preferably includes primarily light that has passed through skin tissue below the epidermis. Multiple tissue spectra and identities can be collected from one or more individuals. These tissue spectra can be analyzed on a computer, and the spectral features that are most important for classifying person-to-person differences can be established using principle component analysis, linear discriminant analysis, or a variety of other related techniques. One or more tissue spectra and identities can be collected from individuals for whom identification or verification may later be desired. A target individual seeking identification or verification can submit a suitable tissue site for spectroscopic measurement. In addition a target individual seeking identity verification can submit a purported identity using some means such as a typed user name, PIN code, magnetic card, transponder, etc. Similarity between the target spectrum and the spectrum or spectra in the enrolled spectral database with respect to the inter-person classification spectral features is determined and identification or verification is granted based on the degree of similarity.

Abstract: A control method for operating internal combustion engine electric hybrid vehicles with smaller battery packs, particularly in configurations where an electric motor (E/M) or electric motor/generator (E/MG), a battery, and associated controls are inserted between the engine and a continuously variable or automatic transmission. The interaction between the combustion engine and battery operated electric motor is controlled by taking energy into the batteries only if it is more efficient than throttling the engine and operating the engine at a lower efficiency. Additionally, the batteries are charged to a certain state or the batteries are maintained at a particular state of charge. A goal of the invention is to obtain the best possible fuel economy while maintaining good driveability.

Abstract: An equivalent to the spatial separation either side of a nominal median plane that is inherent in a bimorph (with one piezoelectric layer on one side, and the second on the other side of the plane) is attained by structurally shaping the cross-section of a simple, single piezoelectric layer ( 11 ) such that it has a multiplicity of piezoelectric portions arranged in two generally-planar groups one either side of a median plane, so that any dimension change undergone by a portion on one side of that plane will tend to bend the whole device in the opposite direction to the same sense dimension change undergone by a portion on the other side of that plane. The simple, single layer acts as though it were a bimorph if elongate and beam-like, bending along its length, one end moving up/down, or back/forth, relative to the other but with any need for an internal, electrode.

Abstract: The invention relates to the creation of a continuous, cost-effective and ecological method, in the embroidery industry, for separating a cellulosed constituent of a carrier layer from single-element or multi-element constituents of a textile wear layer, with low retention time and minimal stress on the wear layer. In order to achieve this, the textile product consisting of at least two constituents is treated over a plurality of stages with aqueous amino oxides, preferably N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (NMMO), until the carrier constituents consisting of polysaccharides, preferably cellulose, are fully separated from the wear layer by means of dissolution. The cellulosed constituents can partially contain starch and/or starch derivatives. Amine oxide adhering to the wear layer is removed by washing with water. Scouring baths are used for the precipitation of the dissolved cellulose. The precipitated cellulose is separated from the amine oxide, is used for another purpose, or is disposed of, by means of filtration, centrifuging or similar processes.
