| 121 | Method and device for signal period stretch and ultra-fast serial-to-parallel/parallel-to-serial conversion | US13515995 | 2011-11-02 | US10031998B2 | 2018-07-24 | Shi Dong |
| Disclosed are a method and a device for signal period stretch and ultra-fast serial-to-parallel/parallel-to-serial conversion, which relate to the technical field of analysis and measurement control. The method is to change a propagation velocity of a target signal or displacement-reflecting the target signal, so as to extend or compress the period of the signal. Displacement-reflection is to generate a Doppler shift through interaction of the displacement of a reflecting plate with the target signal, so as to achieve period stretch; for a signal transmitted through a medium, the propagation velocity of the target signal is changed by changing the property of the medium, so as to achieve period stretch; for a signal ascribed to an electron flow, the movement velocity of the electron beam is changed through a varying acceleration field, so as to achieve period stretch. A target signal condensing/diffusing and collimating lens, a synchronous signal controller and a plurality of period stretch devices are utilized to achieve ultra-fast serial-to-parallel/parallel-to-serial signal conversion. Thereby, a device that originally cannot work at the frequency spectrum of the target signal is enabled to observe, transmit and parse content of the original target signal. | ||||||

| 128 | Apparatus and method for pattern-based configuration of optical sensing systems | US12580469 | 2009-10-16 | US08300284B2 | 2012-10-30 | Adam Sowul; Alejandro Ruiz Sanchez |
| According to a method and apparatus taught herein, an optical sensor uses pattern recognition in its optical detection processing to “see” detection patterns that correspond to predefined configuration settings. In one embodiment, for example, an optical sensing system selects an operational configuration by detecting a pattern embodied in received light data and comparing the detected pattern to one or more internally stored patterns. Each stored pattern represents a different operational configuration of the optical sensing system. If the detected pattern matches one of the stored patterns, the optical sensing system adopts the operational configuration corresponding to the matched stored pattern. Further, in one or more embodiments, the optical sensing system enters a configuration mode by an external stimulus, e.g., responsive to a configuration mode input, and the aforementioned pattern detection-based configuration selection is enabled only while in the configuration mode. | ||||||

| 134 | Volumetric error compensation system with laser tracker and active target | US12654911 | 2010-01-08 | US20100176270A1 | 2010-07-15 | Kam C. Lau; Yuanqun Liu; Guixiu Qiao; Liangyun Xie |
| A volumetric error compensation measurement system and method are disclosed wherein a laser tracker tracks an active target as the reference point. The active target has an optical retroreflector mounted at the center of two motorized gimbals to provide full 360 degree azimuth rotation of the retroreflector. A position sensitive detector is placed behind an aperture provided at the apex of the retroreflector to detect the relative orientation between the tracker laser beam and the retroreflector by measuring a small portion of the laser beam transmitted through the aperture. The detector's output is used as the feedback for the servo motors to drive the gimbals to maintain the retroreflector facing the tracker laser beam at all times. The gimbals are designed and the position of the retroreflector controlled such that the laser tracker always tracks to a pre-defined single point in the active target, which does not move in space when the gimbals and/or the retroreflector makes pure rotations. Special mechanism and alignment algorithm are used in the gimbal design and retroreflector centering alignment to achieve accurate rotational axis alignment and repeatability. | ||||||
