ActiveUS20080130015A1Accurate informationReadily analyzeCharacter and pattern recognitionUsing optical meansPhysicsThree dimensional measurement
A three-dimensional measuring apparatus, method, and program for acquiring many pieces of information on a pattern of light by a single projection and highly accurate three-dimensional information at high speed. The three-dimensional measuring apparatus comprises a pattern projector (1) serving as projecting means for projecting a pattern of light onto a measurement object (A), a camera (2) serving as imaging means for capturing an image of the measurement object (A) illuminated with the pattern of light, and a computer (3) for processing data on the image captured by the camera (2). The computer (3) computes the direction angle of each individual pattern of light which forms the projected pattern of light from the intensity value of the projected pattern of light detected from the captured image, divides the intensity distribution, and computes the depth distance from the phase value at each measuring point of the divided pattern. Thus, highly accurate three-dimensional information is acquired.

ActiveUS20110176632A1Maximize differenceDiversity/multi-antenna systemsPilot signal allocationFrequency spectrumMimo transmission
Provided is a multi-layer transmission method of multiplexing and transmitting data and a demodulation reference signal (DM-RS) sequence in an uplink digital Fourier transform-spread-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (DFT-S-OFDM) transmission employing multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO). The method includes allocating one DM-RS sequence as a DM-RS sequence of a first transmission layer for uplink transmission; allocating a DM-RS sequence whose cyclic shift (CS) value having the same sequence as the DM-RS sequence of the first transmission layer is configured to differ from that of the DM-RS sequence as a DM-RS sequence of a second transmission layer; and multiplexing layer-specific data and the layer-specific DM-RS sequences according to each of the first and second transmission layers. Accordingly, an RS can be transmitted in more OFDM symbols of a slot or subframe without an increase in overhead. Consequently, it is possible to satisfy requirements of LTE-advanced that a high frequency spectrum and a high mobile velocity should be supported, and transmit and receive a DM-RS multiplexed with data while maintaining orthogonality.

A method is provided for evaluating a protected plant having a protection mechanism. A population of immature insects (i.e., larvae or nymphs) belonging to an insect species having a plurality of instars is first exposed to the protected plant such that the protected plant is at least contacted thereby. The insect exposure extends for a selected time period corresponding to a sublethal exposure of the insect population to the protected plant. The exposure of the insect population to the protected plant is then halted following the selected time period and insects collected. A physical characteristic of at least some collected insects is measured and the immature insects are then sorted into instars. The measured physical characteristics are then statistically analyzed across the instars so as to determine an efficacy of the protection mechanism of the protected plant with respect to the insect population.

Oligonucleotide building processes are monitored by means of an oligonucleotide probe which in one embodiment is labelled at one end with a chemiluminescent label and at the other end with a quencher molecule. The conformation of the oligonucleotide probe changes according to whether the probe hybridises with a substantially complementary nucleic acid sequence. In the non-hybridised state the chemiluminescent label is sufficiently close proximity to the quencher that the chemiluminescent emission is substantially attenuated, but in the hybridised state the separation is such that there is little or no attenuation. Particular probes and emitter / quencher pairs are disclosed.

The first component includes delivery in either a single event a library of different engineered vectors or a single engineered vector for a single target nucleotide sequence comprising sequences the function of which is desired to be known in plant cells. Surprisingly, applicants have discovered that, the introduction of multiple vectors to plant cells predominantly results in individual transgenic plants which contain only a single transformation event. The second feature of the invention involves a highly transformable, fast cycling and / or miniature size plant and the final step involves mass scale analysis of T0 plants for various phenotypes and plasmid rescue to identify the nucleotide sequence present in a particular phenotype.

An image processing method according to the present invention is contrived to change the gradation level (of the color component corresponding to the complementary color of yellow) for a pixel within a zone located on a corner of a rectangular image so as to maximize the difference between the gradation level of a pixel that is a processing target and the gradation level of a pixel in a background area in the surrounding area of the pixel that is the processing target, that is, lowering the gradation level. This means the pixel that is a result of applying the process for changing the gradation levels looks yellowish. The human eye has difficulty in recognizing yellow and therefore the change applied to the pixel is inconspicuous as compared to the case of placing a mark or frame on the outside of a rectangular zone.
