United States Patent 4,506,914 Gobeli March 26, 1985 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Security seal
Abstract Security for a package or verifying seal in plastic material is provided by a print seal with unique thermally produced imprints in the plastic. If tampering is attempted, the material is irreparably damaged and thus detectable. The pattern of the imprints, similar to "fingerprints" are recorded as a positive identification for the seal, and corresponding recordings made to allow comparison. The integrity of the seal is proved by the comparison of imprint identification records made by laser beam projection.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Transducer for converting three dimensional mechanical input displacements into a corresponding electrical output signal
Abstract The present invention can be used either as a joystick controller having three dimensions of control or as a three dimensional pressure sensor for signature verification or other purposes. The invention comprises a flexible web including a first deflection zone which extends between first and second spaced apart points on the web. A second deflection zone extends between third and fourth spaced apart points on the web. The first and second deflection zones intersect to divide each of the zones into first and second sections. A first fixed yoke includes first and second arms which are coupled to the first and second points on the web. A second floating yoke includes first and second arms which are coupled to the third and fourth points on the web. A web deflection device is coupled to the second yoke to transmit the mechanical input deflections to the web. Sensor means is coupled to the first and second deflection zones of the web for generating an electrical output signal representative of the mechanical input displacements.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aspheric mirror produced by the elastic deformation of a spherical mirror
Abstract An aspheric mirror in the form of a toric mirror includes a first element having a front surface which defines a spherical reflector and a spaced apart rear surface. The spherical reflector includes a constant radius of curvature, an X-axis with an X-axis radius of curvature and a Y-axis with a Y-axis radius of curvature. The first element possesses a first rigidity factor. A second element includes a front surface sized to mate with the rear surface of the first element along an interface zone. The second element possesses a second rigidity factor. An interface contour device produces a differential cylindrical contour within the interface zone between the first and second elements. The interface contour device is aligned to modify the X-axis radius of curvature of the spherical reflector without significantly modifying the Y-axis radius of curvature. A compression device compresses the first and second elements together to deflect the first element relative to the second element to modify the X-axis radius of curvature without substantially modifying its Y-axis radius of curvature to produce a toric mirror.

Abstract An aspheric mirror, for example in the form of an off-axis parabolic mirror or a toric mirror, that includes a first element having a front surface which defines a spherical reflector and a spaced apart rear surface. The spherical reflector includes a constant radius of curvature, an X-axis with an X-axis radius of curvature and a Y-axis with a Y-axis radius of curvature. The first element possesses a first rigidity factor. A second element includes a front surface sized to mate with the rear surface of the first element along an interface zone. The second element possesses a second rigidity factor. An interface contour device produces a differential contour within the interface zone between the first and second elements. The interface contour device is aligned to modify the X-axis radius of curvature of the shperical reflector without significantly modifying the Y-axis radius of curvature. A compression device compresses the first and second elements together to deflect the first element relative to the second element to modify the X-axis radius of curvature without substantially modifying its Y-axis radius of curvature to produce an aspheric mirror.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Transverse pixel format electro-optic spatial light modulator
Abstract A spatial light modulator comprising a solid state light valve comprising a high density two-dimensional array of "Kerr-cell" like pixels formed in a solid state electro-optical composition such as lanthanum modified lead zirconium titanate (PLZT). Transverse electrodes are deposited on a layer of PLZT the composition of which may provide for memory mode or non-memory mode operation. Pixels are defined in the electro-optic materials in regions between adjacent electrodes deposited on the electro-optic material. The array may be addressed optically or electronically to generate an electric field in the electro-optic material, and thus activate pixels.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Device and method for optical scanning of text
Abstract A small hand-held optical scanning device for the accurate and precise scanning of lines of text characters is described. The scanner does not require any mechanical means of providing tachometer-like or encoder-like scanning signals in order to establish an accurate reproduction of the scanned text. An auxiliary single element detector samples the scanned text at an advanced (retarded) position relative to the main one dimensional scanner of the device. This advanced detector sensor, together with appropriate and disclosed software algorithms, permits the accurate correction of baseline imperfections as well as corrections for scan-speed non-uniformities and basic scan-speed errors. The processed scanner output is sufficiently faithful to the scanned text that optical character recognition (OCR) software can precisely interpret the scanned images and subsequently provide an accurate ASCII representation of the scanned text. Arbitrary characters, such as Kanji symbols, can be scanned accurately, which also permits the application of optical character recognition (OCR) software which is dedicated to such text characters.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Electro-optic light valve array
Abstract A two-dimensional light valve array comprising a pattern of reduced electrode spacing solid state light valves formed using semiconductor processing techniques, and a method of making same. The electrodes are recessed into channels in an electro-optic substrate, such as lanthanum modified lead zirconate-titanate (PLZT). A first set of electrodes are deposited in a comb-shaped configuration into parallel and orthogonal channels etched into the PLZT substrate. A second set of deposited electrodes are bands running in alternating channels between the teeth of the first set of electrodes. An insulating material isolates the two sets of electrodes. An applied voltage between the electrodes induces bi-refringence in the PLZT and affects light transmissivity through the light valve at that location. The array is activated electronically by means of matrix addressing and controlled by means of a microcomputer and appropriate software. Reduced electrode spacing within the PLZT material offers benefits of reduced activation voltage, reduced pixel size, higher image resolution, and increased brightness.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Method and device for glucose concentration measurement with special attention to blood glucose determinations
Abstract The concentration of glucose in the anterior chamber of an eye is non-invasively measured by guiding a beam through a polarizer (4), a quarter wave plate (6), a polarization modulator (20), and an analyzer (7). After initializing the polarizer and the analyzer to extinguish the beam, it is guided parallel to the iris (56) of the eye (50) and introduced into the anterior chamber (57), wherein it is refracted, impinges on and is reflected from the iris, and exits the anterior chamber approximately collinear with the portion (55A) of the beam incident on the anterior chamber. The beam then is guided onto a detector (10), and a sufficient signal is applied to the polarization modulator to extinguish the beam. The signal represents the glucose concentration in the patient's blood.
