Abstract: The optical characteristics of an eye to be tested having a
large amount of aberration can be measured accurately. A
first illuminating optical system (10) illuminates an eye
to be tested (100) with a wide beam by using a light flux
from a light source (11). A first light receiving unit
(21A) receives reflection light fluxes from the eye to be
tested that have been converted into practically at least
17 beams by a first conversion member (22A). A first compensation
optical unit (60A), disposed in the first illuminating
optical system (10), compensates an illuminating
light flux to the eye to be tested (100) for aberration. A
second compensation optical unit (60B), disposed in a first
light receiving optical system (20A), compensates a reflection
light flux from the eye to be tested (100) for aberration.
An operation unit determines, based on an output from
the first light receiving unit (21A), a compensation amount
for canceling out aberration to deform the first and second
compensation optical units (60A, 60B) and hence compensate
for aberration. In addition, the operation unit determines
the optical characteristics of the eye (100), based on optical
characteristics based on an output from the first
light receiving unit (21A) after compensation, and on compensated
optical characteristics.

Abstract: A method and device for authenticating software stored in non-volatile memory in a data processing device. The processor comprises an internal immutable memory, preferably a read only memory (ROM), and during the boot up procedure the software in external memory is authenticated using code that is stored in the internal ROM. The on-chip ROM is physically integrated with the processor itself, so the code stored in ROM can neither be tampered with nor replaced, and can therefore be assumed at all times to be authentic. Thus, in the method and device of the invention known good code is used to authenticate the untrusted code in external memory, so the integrity of the system is significantly improved.
