Patent CA-2795033-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BERRY MARK JOHN
IPC: A23L19/00
Filed: 2011-05-25
Abstract: Use of dried rehydratable food, such as in a dried soup, a dried beverage, a breakfast cereal, a yoghurt and a dried sauce, is widespread. However it has been observed that when the dried components are fruit and/or vegetable, the components, on rehydration, do not resemble the fruit and/or vegetable before desiccation. That is to say they no longer have a fresh appearance but are discoloured and lack firmness. This transformation is due to cellular damage which occurs during desiccation. In particular, it is thought that phospholipid membranes are destabilised by insertion of cellular amphiphiles, phase transition into the gel phase and membrane fusion. This invention seeks to solve the above-mentioned technical problem by providing, amongst other things, a dried rehydratable food which is a fruit, vegetable or part thereof which, on rehydration, has improved appearance, texture and rehydration properties. In particular, a dried rehydratable food is provided, the food comprising less than 10% w/w water and at least 0.02% w/w of a dehydrin protein and derivatives thereof, the dehydrin protein and derivatives thereof comprising an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of K,I,K,E,K,L,P,G; K,I,K,E/D,K,L/I,P,G; and K,I,K,E/D,K,L/I/TA/,P/H/S,G, and wherein the dried rehydratable food is unbroken tissue of a vegetable or part thereof and/or a fruit or part thereof, and not a seed, wherein the unbroken tissue has a shortest linear dimension of at least 0.5 millimetres, preferably a shortest linear dimension of 0.5 to 25, more preferably 0.5 to 10 millimetres. A food product comprising the dried rehydratable food and methods for manufacturing the dried rehydratable food are also provided.

Abstract: Un système de caméra de profondeur utilise un dispositif d'éclairage à lumière structurée et de multiples détecteurs tels que des détecteurs de lumière infrarouge, de la même façon que dans un système qui suit le mouvement d'un utilisateur dans un champ de vision. Un détecteur peut être optimisé pour une détection à courte distance tandis qu'un autre détecteur est optimisé pour une détection à longue distance. Les détecteurs peuvent présenter une distance de base différente à partir du dispositif d'éclairage, ainsi qu'une résolution spatiale, une durée d'exposition et une sensibilité différentes. Dans une approche, les valeurs de profondeur sont obtenues à partir de chaque détecteur grâce à une correspondance avec un motif de lumière structurée et les valeurs de profondeur sont fusionnées de façon à obtenir une carte de profondeur finale qui est fournie en tant qu'entrée à une application. La fusion peut impliquer une moyenne non pondérée, une moyenne pondérée, des mesures de précision et/ou des mesures de confiance. Dans une autre approche, des valeurs de profondeur supplémentaires qui sont incluses dans la fusion sont obtenues à l'aide d'une correspondance stéréoscopique parmi des données de pixel des détecteurs.
