20080243509 | Speech module - A speech module ( | 10-02-2008 |
20090147821 | Temperature management - A method and device are described for controlling and/or attenuating aiming laser beam brightness in a hand held radiometer. The beam from the laser is directed at a target measurement surface and a transversely movable element member is interposed between the laser and the target to change the beam brightness on the target. In a preferred device a slidable or rotatable element intercepts the beam between the laser and target and a calibrated opening in the element of selected size and/or shape allows part of the beam to pass through the element to provide a safe brightness at the target. | 06-11-2009 |
20090238237 | Sighting system and method - This invention relates to optical sighting apparatus systems, and to methods for visualization and for identifying remote target surface areas without physical contact for the purpose of measurement and/or of treatment of the remote surface. An arrangement of projected light beams indicates the position and size of the target surface in relation to a measurement detector or treatment device, so that the device is accurately directed to the target. In a preferred arrangement separate laser beams form a light distribution indication or brightness pattern at the target and the device is sighted toward the pattern on the target surface area. | 09-24-2009 |
20090238238 | Interfacing devices and systems - A system combining the output of a thermal detection and imaging device with a capture and display device, such as a cordless or portable telephone/camera, is used to manage thermal information and displays. | 09-24-2009 |
20100039516 | Video thermometery - System and method are described for display of remote surface measurement areas by capture of both a visible and an infrared view of an identified surfaced measurement area and the mutual display of the visible and infrared views of the thermal image zones with temperature indication across a panoramic view of the measured area by video. | 02-18-2010 |
20100141456 | Data logger - Multiple identical data loggers are produced on sheet material and then separated to produce individual products for distribution to separate locations. A continuous roll of tape sheet material comprises a contiguous series of data loggers which each include a cover sheet, a transponder, a sensor, a power source (such as a battery), an antenna, a microprocessor, an adhesive layer and means to separate individual data logger elements from one another. | 06-10-2010 |
20100195697 | Measurement sighting device and method - Method and apparatus are provided for visibly outlining the energy zone to be measured by a radiometer. The method comprises the steps of providing a laser sighting device on the radiometer adapted to emit more than two laser beams against a surface whose temperature is to be measured and positioning said laser beams about the energy zone to outline said energy zone. The apparatus comprises a laser sighting device adapted to emit more than two laser beams against the surface and means to position said laser beams about the energy zone to outline said energy zone. The laser beams may be rotated about the periphery of the energy zone. The laser beams may be rotated about the periphery of the energy zone. In another embodiment, a pair of laser beams are projected on opposite sides of the energy zone. The laser beams may be further pulsed on and off in a synchronized manner so as to cause a series of intermittent lines to outline the energy zone. Such an embodiment improves the efficiency of the laser and results in brighter laser beams being projected. In yet another embodiment, a primary laser beam is passed through or over a beam splitter or a diffraction grating so as to be formed into a plurality of secondary beams which form, where they strike the target, a pattern which defines an energy zone area of the target to be investigated with the radiometer. Two or more embodiments may be used together. A diffraction device such as a grating may be used to form multiple beams. In a further embodiment, additionally laser beams are directed axially so as to illuminate the center or a central area of the energy zone. | 08-05-2010 |
20110032326 | Video scanner system and method - System and method are described for visualization and for display of remote surface measurement areas by capture of both visible and invisible views of image zones of an identified surface measurement area and the mutual display of visible and infrared views of thermal image zones with temperature indication across a panoramic view of the measured area by video. | 02-10-2011 |
20120187296 | Interfacing devices and systems - A system combining the output of a thermal detection and imaging device with a capture and display device, such as a cordless or portable telephone/camera, is used to manage thermal information and displays. | 07-26-2012 |
