    摘要: An opthalmoscope and method for imaging a retina (R). A light pattern (Ri) of source light (Li) is projected onto a retinal focal plane (Pr) coinciding with the retina (R). Light is measured from the retinal focal plane (Pr) resulting from the source light (Li) of the respective light pattern (Ri) interacting with the retina (R). A first part of the light is received in a first detection channel (Cl) from a first area (Rc) on the retina (R) which first area (Rc) overlaps the respective light pattern (Ri) from which said first part of the light originates. A second part of the light received in a second detection channel (C2) from a second area (Ro) on the retina (R) which second area (Ro) is offset by a lateral distance (dR) with respect to the respective light pattern (Ri) from which said second part of the light originates.

    摘要: The present disclosure concerns a pressure sensor, comprising at least two adjacent electrically conductive leads disposed in a pattern on a face of a first elastomeric carrier; and an electrically resistive layer formed of a electrically resistive composite material for shunting the at least two adjacent electrically conductive leads, said electrically conducting layer disposed on a face of a second elastomeric carrier. The first and second carriers are stacked across a spacer such that the at least two adjacent electrically conductive leads faces the electrically resistive layer across a gap defined by the spacer. The gap is formed by a pocket between the carriers. The first carrier including the at least two adjacent electrically conductive leads and/or the second carrier including the electrically resistive layer are stretchable such as to upon receiving a force, exerted in a direction across the gap, reduce the gap between the electrically resistive layer and the at least two adjacent electrically conductive leads. Upon closing the gap the adjacent electrically conductive leads are shunted over a force dependent contact area and contact resistance. A gas in a gas confining structure between the carriers at least partly counteracts the exerted force.

    摘要: The present document relates to a method of synchronizing devices, wherein each device operates in sync with an internal clock signal which is periodic to thereby define time cycles, at least one of the internal clock signals being periodic at a first frequency. The devices are mutually synchronized via a party line. The method comprises providing a system clock signal periodic at a second frequency smaller than the first frequency defining sequential system clock cycles; and synchronizing the internal clock signal with the system clock signal. At least one device triggers, in sync with the system clock signal, a system synchronization event comprising changing a signal status of a common party line signal on the party line and monitoring the common party line signal. The changing and monitoring are performed in sync with the system clock signal.

    摘要: The present invention concerns an improved process for the wet torrefaction (Torwash) of biomass, wherein the liquid phase comprises vinasse which is typically considered a waste stream. The process according the invention comprises: (a) heating a mixture comprising biomass and vinasse at a temperature in the range of 100 - 400 °C, to obtain torrefied biomass and a liquor; and (b) washing the torrefied biomass with water, to obtain a washed material and an effluent. The inventors found that by applying a washing step after the wet torrefaction, the results are equally good as when fresh water would be used in combination with a conventional pre-washing step.
