Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an assembly for detecting multi-dimensional eye movements and a staining tincture therefor. The invention aims to improve a method and an assembly of the aforementioned type by allowing the measurement of horizontal, vertical and torsional movement components of the eye in the head, omitting the computationally intensive processing of grey values, with a high resolution and in real time, whilst providing an artificial staining tincture which can be washed out by lachrymal fluid without the additional use of water. According to the inventive method, the measured values are measured and processed in the following steps: a) application of at least two non-toxic tincture stains according to predetermined geometry to the conjunctiva of the eye outside the cornea, in order to produce a clear contrast marking under infra-red illumination; b) unique determination of the co-ordinates of a reference point of neutral rotation (centre of the pupil when looking straight ahead) as a reference position before commencing the measuring process; c) detection, conversion into digital form and saving of the image sequences, using the optoelectronic sensor d) conversion into binary form and division of each eye image into segments by separating the threshold values, based on the artificial contrast marking and determination of the co-ordinates of the stains in accordance with step b); assignment of the co-ordinates of the rotationally neutral reference point to the co-ordinates of the stains and drawing up of a surface over each segmented eye image; f) determination of the centroids of the stains applied at a distance from each other in accordance with step a) and determination of the deviation from the co-ordinates of the reconstructed reference point in accordance with step b) as a measurement for the horizontal, vertical and torsional position of the eye.

Abstract: A system for facilitating secure network communications includes a security computer system and corresponding software. The security system is utilized in conjunction with a voice browser residing on a server system. A user accesses the network by placing a call to the voice browser system. The voice browser includes a software module that creates a secure connection to the security system. The user provides an identification to the voice browser system that is transferred to and verified by the security system. Once the identification is verified, the user is prompted by the voice browser system to speak a phrase for voice verification. The verification speech signals are transferred from the voice browser system to the security system to verify those speech signals against speech signals of a particular authorized user associated with the identification and stored in a database. When the user is verified, the security system retrieves a user private key and certificate from the database. In response to the user subsequently accessing a web site residing on a secure server, the secure server and voice browser system initiate a secure key exchange. During the key exchange, data packets containing security information are transferred from the voice browser system to the security system for processing, while security information from the security system is transferred to the secure server via the voice browser system. The resulting session key is securely transferred to the voice browser system to facilitate secure communications between the voice browser system and secure server. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention is related to a method and apparatus for performing a surface analysis of a sample by mass spectrometry. According to the invention, the ions necessary for the spectrometry are produced by a probe beam, which is preferably an electron beam, in combination with a gas mixture comprising at least a reactive gas component. Due to the interaction of the probe beam with the reactive gas and the surface atoms, reactions take place between the surface atoms and the reactive gas molecules, resulting in volatile compounds being released from the surface. One or more laser beams cause the ionization of these compounds, after which the resulting ions are accelerated towards a mass spectrometer. The method and apparatus allow an accurate depth profiling of a test sample to be performed. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A self-supporting package of strand is disclosed. The disclosed method of manufacturing a package of strand is directed to the bulk collection of the strand. The disclosed strand collection system includes an attenuator that attenuates filaments from a bushing. The attenuator includes a pair of belts between which the strand is pinched to pull the filaments from the bushing. The attenuator directs the strand to a deflector assembly that slows down and imparts a degree of movement to the strand. The deflector assembly includes primary and secondary deflector surfaces which the strand engages. After the strand deflects off the secondary deflector surface, it is directed into a container assembly. The attenuator and deflector assembly traverse above the container assembly to deposit the strand. The container assembly is periodically vibrated by a vibrating mechanism as it collects strand. The vibrations settle and shift the strand in the container assembly for better strand distribution. The container assembly includes an outer container with perforations through which air and water can flow to remove moisture from the package. The container assembly also includes an inner container that provides support during the shipping of the package after the outer container is removed. After the strand has filled the container assembly, the container assembly and strand is dielectrically dried. The package may include intra-package splices of the strand if the strand breaks during the collection process. The strand collection system couples filaments or strands together to reduce or eliminate slippage of the strands when they are pulled from the package. The links are referred to as authentic links. When the strands have been coupled, the strands are easily and accurately run out of the package.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for thermal treatment and processing of waste materials of various types, consistency and composition, such as pollutant-loaded waste wood, old tyres, industrial/commercial waste, domestic waste and bulk waste and a shaft-melt gasifier for carrying out said method. The above is achieved, whereby the waste material is introduced into the high temperature zone (H), directly after burning in the shaft-melt gasifier. The organic components contained in the waste material react with oxygen here. The reaction products are sucked into the furnace along with the residual waste materials in a co-current flow. The incompletely combusted organic components of the waste materials undergo a pyrolytic decomposition. Pyrolytic coke is formed, which is burned with oxygen in the reducing/cracking zone (Z) and the raw gas sucked off between the zones (11) and (7).
