Inventor: SHAMES GEORGE H
IPC: G09B21/00
Filed: 1986-11-12
Abstract: A vocal tactile feedback apparatus and method for use in the treatment of stuttering and other speech or hearing abnormalities are disclosed. A microphone (10) and amplifier (20) are utilised to produce and amplify an electronic signal responsive to vocal utterances spoken within a known range of the microphone (10). The amplified signal is then delayed by a suitable delaying circuit for a desired time interval and is then transmitted to an electro-­mechanical transducer (30) attached to the outer surface of the laryngeal or glottis region of the neck of a user. The transducer (30) then transforms the amplified delayed signal into a mechanical vibration to provide delayed vibrotactile feedback of the vocal utterances whether spoken by the user or by others. A unique transducer assembly (30) for use in the apparatus and method is disclosed.

Abstract: The method involves the airborne mapping of a zone (19) starting from recorded data acquired from an airborne apparatus for different points (15) on a path (17) of the apparatus. The recorded data are read. A predetermined number of energy windows are defined, each of which corresponds at most to the gamma energy of one radioelement. From the display of spectrometric data transferred to a video screen, the number of pulses contained in each predetermined energy window is counted, together with the total number of pulses for each data acquisition point. Some of the accessed data are recorded, as are values of the counts obtained. The data acquisition points are positioned on the video screen and a value is allocated to them which corresponds to the value of the count obtained for a given window or to the value of the total count, following a predetermined colour law. A linear interpolation is carried out between the points so as to obtain a continuous image. Various type of processing are carried out. Application to the location of radioactive sources, particularly in contaminated geographical areas. <IMAGE>

IPC: G01D5/244
Filed: 1984-07-20
Abstract: A transducer formed of one or more electrode arrays is positioned in confronting relation and parallel to the plane of rotation of one or more rotating members. A plurality of phase modulated, two-phase, square wave drive signals of the same amplitude and frequency are applied to each electrode. The signals are combined at a central node or electrode to form. as a result of the signal, the superposition of the algebraic sum of all drive signal pairs. Samples of the resultant signal taken at the same frequency and of a duration of less than one-half the duration of the drive signal period provide a multi-step, synchronously detected signal. The detected signal is a multi-step approximation to a sine wave, the phase angle thereof relative to a timing point being proportional to the angular position of the rotating member. The amplitudes and phase shifts of the multi-step detected signal are then reduced to a plurality of vectors, from which two orthogonal vectors are produced which may be mathematically reduced to the amplitude and phase angle of the aforesaid sine wave. The phase angle is transformed or converted into a binary representation of the hand position. The amplitude of the sine wave is utilized in conjunction with a stored look-up table to generate a binary compensation value for the aforesaid binary representation. which compensation is representative of a variance in the detected signal as a result of the distance between the transducer and the rotating member. A second binary inter- dial compensation value is generated to correct for errors in the mechanical misalignments of certain ones of the rotating members which would normally lead to ambiguities in the dial readings. The entire procedure is controlled by a unique program which incorporates a special numerical code which ultimately provides an output signal that is the BCD equivalent of the integer value representative of the position of the rotating member.

Abstract: A confocal optical imaging system includes a laser 10 for producing a linearly polarized beam (12) which is transmitted through the optical elements of the system, focused on a small spot on the target (T), and reflected back through the optical elements to a photodetector (38) where the reflectance from the spot is determined. The optical elements include a pinhole plate (24) for restricting the size of the transmitted and reflected beams which plate, along with other of the optical elements, can produce unwanted reflections adding optical noise to the reflected beam (R) from the target. A retardation plate (32) between the pinhole plate and the target alters the polarization of the transmitted beam relative to the reflected beam so that a polarizer (20, 40) will discriminate between the true reflected beam signal and the unwanted reflections to thereby improve the signal-to-noise ratio at the photodetector.

Abstract: Method of reconstituting instruction position in a numerical control system comprising an NC unit (11) having a path control function and a machine position correction function; a motor (15) which revolves according to an instruction from the NC unit to drive a mechanical moving part; a pulse coder (16a) which revolves in synchronism with the revolution of said motor and which generates a pulse every time, after a predetermined angle of revolution and a counter (16b) which counts said pulse in a direction of revolution to store the machine position, and which continues to store said machine position even when the power supply is disconnected. In this method of reconstituting the instruction position, a counted value C RA  of the counter (16b) at the time of returning to a reference point is set to a battery backed-up memory (11c), a counted value C A  of the counter (11c) is read out every time when the power supply is closed, the reference point is imaginarily set to be a present machine position, and the machine position when the power supply is closed is set to be a target position. Under the condition where the machine is locked, the interpolation operation is carried out internally to renew the data C RA  of the present machine position, the mechanical moving part is imaginarily moved from the reference point up to the present machine position when the power supply is closed (until C RA  =C A ), and the instruction position when the power source is closed is reconstituted using instruction data necessary for the movement
