20120127360 | IMAGE-CAPTURE SYSTEM AND METHOD WITH TWO OPERATING MODES - The invention relates to a system for capturing at least one image of a scene. The system comprises: an optical system, a sensor, an autofocus module for adjusting the focus of the system, and a digital processing means. The system estimates at least one value representative of the sharpness in at least one area of at least one initial captured image of a scene. The autofocus module captures the initial image with a predefined focus. On the basis of at least the value representative of the estimated sharpness, the system selects a first operating mode or a second operating mode. In the first mode, the autofocus module controls the focus of the system to capture a sharper image of the scene. In the second mode, the initial captured image or another captured image is processed by the digital processing means, the other image being captured with the predefined focus. | 05-24-2012 |

20110026909 | OPTICAL SYSTEM FURNISHED WITH A DEVICE FOR INCREASING ITS DEPTH OF FIELD - To increase the depth of field of an optical system, an inversion of the chromatism is produced. This accommodates the fact that, in natural light, users prefer, for their photographs, taking long distance shots outdoors, where the illuminant is mostly composed of blue, and short-distance shots indoors, where the illuminant is mostly composed of red. While optical devices naturally focus the blue components at a shorter distance than the red components, which is unfavorable, with an inversion of the chromatism, a focus more in keeping with what is required is restored. | 02-03-2011 |
20110164323 | OPTICAL SYSTEM PROVIDED WITH A DEVICE FOR AUGMENTING ITS DEPTH OF FIELD - In order to increase the depth of field of an optical system, there is provision to add a phase object, interposed between an object (O) to be imaged and an image plane ( | 07-07-2011 |

20140290212 | REACTANTS SPRAYED INTO PLASMA FLOW FOR ROCKET PROPULSION - Specific impulse and rocket engine efficiency can be improved by injecting reactants, e.g., a propellant combination or a monopropellant and a catalyst, into a plasma flow of a rocket engine. In some aspects, a catalyst or a propellant is carried by plasma formed by passing a flow of a feed gas through an electrical arc. In some aspects, reactants are combusted in supersonic plasma flow to generate combustion ionization in the plasma flow. | 10-02-2014 |
