61 Apparatus for tracing infrared ray JP5240979 1979-04-27 JPS55144565A 1980-11-11 TANABE HIROHARU
PURPOSE:To provide an apparatus for tracing infrared rays which has high tracing accuracy and no complicated output adjustments by employing a light receiver placed with a rotary disk having an opening between an objective lens and a single infrared ray detector. CONSTITUTION:A light receiver 1 has an infrared ray detector 6 located at a focal point of an objective lens 2 at one end opened at the lens 2. A rotary disk 3 is provided at the position in the vicinity of the detector 6. The central axis 31 of the disk 3 is spaced at predetermined distance R in parallel with an optical axis 8. A light recieving position detector 5 is disposed at the position of a radius R at opposite side between the position of the detector 6 and the central axis 31 of the disk 3, and a light emitting element 51 and a photodetector 52 are oppositely faced at both sides of the disk 3. Since there is one detector 6 in the apparatus, the light receiving output is regularly proportional to the intensity of the incident light. It can judge whether the light source is displaced in either direction from the optical axis 8 by providing transmitting portions 33a, 33b... at the disk 3 so as to increase the tracing accuracy and necessitate no output adjustments enabling an easy handling operation.
62 Target detector JP2140479 1979-02-27 JPS55113970A 1980-09-02 OKADA MINORU
PURPOSE:To detect only a target signal by a target detector by separating a signal responsive to a target from noise intrinsic for a CCD. CONSTITUTION:A video signal from a CCD is applied to a binary encoder 6 which produces ''1'' when the signal is higher than predetermined level and ''0'' when the signal is lower than predetermined level. The output signal from the encoder 6 is applied through a delay circuit 7 having predetermined time delay to one input of an AND gate 8. The output of the encoder 6 is applied directly to the other input of the AND gate 8. The AND gate 8 thus produces a signal responsive to a target signal only.
63 Rotation change-over mechanism JP16085778 1978-12-22 JPS5585268A 1980-06-27 YAMANAKA CHIYAKI
PURPOSE:To carry out the accurate change-over of a support shaft and a driving shaft of a driven member whose angular position is to be changed by interposing therebetween a link mechanism defined by a guide groove. CONSTITUTION:A support shaft 87 and a drive shaft 81 of a condensing lens system holder 1 are separately provided, and both shafts are connected by means of a link mechanism 8. In this link mechanism 8, the back-lash of a retarding device 3 or the like is absorbed. In accordance with the rotation of a driving member 82, a sliding shaft 84 makes reciprocating motions within a guide groove. The movement of the sliding shaft 84 is further transmitted through a second movable member 85 to a driven member 86 thereby to rotate the support shaft 87 of a condensing lens system holder 1 at a predetermined angle and to carry out the change-over of the shafts.
64 Guiding device JP13694878 1978-11-07 JPS5563771A 1980-05-14 YASUDA KENTAROU
PURPOSE:To provide a signal for guiding an object to be guided by so constructing that, reflecting mirrors rotatable around the optical axis as the center are provided in the optical pass in an optical system so that an electric signal corresponding to a two dimensional image may be obtained when it is desired to change the optical axis direction while the detector is being fixed. CONSTITUTION:The optical system consists of the lens 6, the reflecting mirrors 7, 8 fixed to the gyro, and the movable mirror 9 supported by the movable controlled 10. The optical system thus forms on the scanning type sensor 11 an image which rotates corresponding to the rotation of the gyro center 1. The controller 10 has a capability for a definetely defined image to be focused on the sensor 11 even when the optical axis 3 is not perpendicular to the face of the sensor 11. To do so, the controller 10 permits the induced voltage by magnets N and S crossing the sensor coil B to be shifted by 90 deg. by the phase shifter 28 to cause the signal which controls the movable mirror 9 to be properly inclined. The scanning type sensor 11 outputs the image signal.
65 Travel locus measuring apparatus JP6524278 1978-05-30 JPS54156564A 1979-12-10 ONO HIROMI
PURPOSE:To display and record loci with high accuracy and in real time by operating the positions of a moving object continuously from the angle information obtainable with a plurality of angle tracers which are capable of automatically tracing the light source which is installed to the moving object and becomes a target thereby obtaining the travel loci. CONSTITUTION:A light source 2 mounted to a moving object 1 generates modulated light from a lamp 3 by its oscillator 4 and modulator 5. The modulated light from the light source 2 is automatically traced by the reflecting mirrors 7 of two units of angle tracers 6, 6' which are installed at the predetermined spacing. The abovementioned tracer 6 condenses the modulated light from the light source 2 in an optical system 8, converts this to an electric signal with a photoelectric transducer 9, sends this through a signal processor 10 and feeds the same back to the reflecting mirror 7 through servo amplifier 11 and servo mechanism 12, thereby letting the reflecting mirror 7 trace the light source 2. The output of the processor 10 is digitized by an A/D converter 13 and at the same time the both of this and the output of an angle detector 14 indicating the angle from the reference line of the reflecting mirror 7 are inputted to a code translator 15. A CPU 17 calculates the position of the moving body 1 from the spacing of two units of the tracers 6, 6' and the angle output of the detector 14 in real time and displayes and records the same.
66 Solar angle determining device for satellite JP4569678 1978-04-18 JPS54137372A 1979-10-25 INAGAWA YOSHIYUKI
PURPOSE:To obtain all the necessary information for positioning a satellite without any use of a solar sensor by using a special satellite sensor. CONSTITUTION:There is prepared a satellite sensor 5, in which a different is established between the sensor output levels from the day and night sides of a satellite and by which the reflected light from those sides by the action of the solar light is discriminated. The satellite sensor 5 is connected with an A/D converter 6 and a circuit 7 for determining the width of the earth and a spin rate. As a result, the output of the sensor 5 is differentiated by a determing circuit 7 into leading edge signals and into trailing edge signals. The pulse generation is accomplished in response to the former signals whereas the pulse interruption is accomplished in response to the latter signals. Thus, the width of the satellite and the pulse train are expressed to generate an output B. And, pulse output A for determining the width of the satellite at the day (and night) sides is generated. As a result, it is possible to determine the solar angle merely by attaching the two satellite sensors 5 in the reference directions of + and - sides to the normal plane of a spin stabilizing type satellite.

68 METHOD FOR DETERMINING POSITION ACCURACY OF A MODULAR SHELVING US16116623 2018-08-29 US20190064309A1 2019-02-28 Danika Goecke; Nicholaus A. Jones; Harika Valluripalli
A laser beam is transmitted from a laser system to a shelving system by pointing the laser beam towards at least one label attached to the shelving system, by a computer system, using angular information of the laser beam relative to a reference frame. An angle between the laser system on the ceiling of the store to the position of the shelving system is determined by the computer system using the position of the laser system and the position of the shelving system. The laser beam is then transmitted from the laser system to the shelving system and pointed using the determined angle between the laser system on the ceiling of the store to the position of the shelving system. The laser is aimed at the x, y location where a label should be displayed, for example, according to the planogram for the store layout. If the label is not detected at the specified location, the discrepancy may be noted, for example, with a visual or other notification.
