Mathematically optimized family of ultra low distortion bellow fold patterns
An improved mathematically modeled family of bellow fold patterns, useful for making bellows from stiff but foldable materials, which forms a corner of a bellow consisting of a series of several single inversion fold patterns, each having a characteristic design angle which is mathematically computed to provide a desired initial wall angle for the bellow and to minimize wall tilting over a predetermined extension angle range, thereby allowing low cost bellows to be made which can extend long distances while using a minimal amount of stiff but foldable material. In addition, each characteristic design angle can be computed to provide exactly zero tilting of the bellow walls at one or more non-zero extension lengths specified by a designer, thus allowing, unlike all other prior art folds, a structurally stiff, long extending bellow to be formed in an extended state using fast production techniques such as vacuum forming, blow molding or injection molding, while also allowing the bellow to be free of distortion in the compressed state.

ActiveUS20050206753A1Correct distortionDistortion freeImage enhancementTelevision system detailsDistortion correctionDigital camera
A digital camera acquires the image of an original including an original from a shot image acquired by shooting. The digital camera reduces the image of the original and corrects distortion of the reduced image which is originated from the characteristic of a lens. As the digital camera performs distortion correction on the reduced image, the number of arithmetic operations in distortion correction is reduced, making distortion correction simpler. The digital camera acquires a rectangle defined by the contour of the original, extracts the image of the original to acquire an original image before reduction, and acquires an associated projection-transformed image by affine transformation. The digital camera acquires pixel positions of the original image using an affine parameter, and acquires pixel positions of the image before distortion correction using a relational expression of distortion correction performed on the reduced image.

A lattice strain measuring method comprising the steps of: using a scanning transmission electron microscope 12 to apply convergent electron beams 34 to a sample 32 and obtain a convergent-beam electron diffraction image 36 of the sample 32; computing a lattice strain magnitude of the sample 32, based on the obtained convergent-beam electron diffraction image; and displaying the computed lattice strain magnitude, associated with an electron microscope image of the sample 32. A scanning transmission electron microscope 12 is used, whereby electron beams 34 are caused to scan to thereby suitably set an incidence position. Accordingly, the incidence position of the electron beams can be displaced at a nanometer-order pitch accurately in a short period of time. The use of a scanning transmission electron microscope 12 requires no image forming lens below the sample 32, and the convergent-beam electron diffraction image is free from the distortion due to the influence of an image forming lens. Thus, a distribution of lattice strains in an electronic device having, e.g., a micronized structure can be displayed in an image with high resolving power and with high accuracy and furthermore in a short period of time.
