    Abstract: An illumination system for photography comprises at least a normally unlit pulsed light source (PLS) (112) with first and second electrical conduits (108, 110), a normally lit continuous light source (CLS) (300) with first and second electrical conduits (308, 310), and a hot shoe (104) with first and second electrical conduits, that is connected to a camera (100). The first conduits of all three components (112, 300, 100) are electrically connected together and the second conduits of all three components (112, 300, 100) are separately electrically connected together. When camera (100) is actuated, a switch closure from camera (100) actuates continuous light source (300), causing it to cease emitting light, and also actuates pulsed light source (112), causing it to briefly emit light, whereby both sources emit light at different times, thereby providing focus lighting while preventing light interference by CLS (300) during exposure of a subject by PLS (112).

    Abstract: A digital telemetry system having improved data rate and robustness. The telemetry system has a data transmission cable having a first end and a second end, and is capable of transmitting data between the first and second end on at least two propagation modes. A data source connected at the first end has data transmission circuitry to generate data signals on these propagation modes. A receiver connected to the second end of the wireline cable has a first receive circuitry to receive signals on a first of the at least two propagation modes and a second receive circuitry to receive signals on a second of the at least two propagation modes. An adaptive far-end cross-talk cancellation circuitry connected to the first receive circuitry and to the second receive circuitry cancels out far-end cross-talk between the at least two propagation modes.

    Abstract: An earring watch comprises an enclosure 4 with a friction clip or pierced-earlobe hook for attachment to the ear. The enclosure contains an energy cell 18, a timekeeping circuit 42-46-48 and an audio transducer 40 for announcing the time in a series of groups of tones, the number of tones in each group equal to a respective digit of the time. The time is announced when the wearer touches one part of the surface of the enclosure twice, another part 6 of the enclosure is electrically connected to the body via the ear, so that the touch completes a circuit between the two parts of the enclosure. Preferably, and to avoid false readouts due to an inadvertent touch, the watch contains circuitry for providing a time readout only if it is touched twice within a predetermined interval.

    Abstract: A multiple-character-word indication system employs a humanly sensible output in which plural associated characters which constitute a word representing time, temperature, or other information are indicated sequentially through the use of sensible (audible, palpable, visible) indicia in coded form. The words are generated in electronic form by known means. Individual characters are sequentially selected and then supplied to electronic circuitry which generates a code of sequential signals corresponding to the character. This code is then applied to one or more transducers which convert the signals to the sensible indicia. The output indication can be initiated either periodically or upon demand. The readout transducer preferably produces plural types of sensible sensations, such as tones of different pitch, to distinguish the respective characters of the word. In a preferred embodiment the system is a clock which indicates different digits of the time of day by sequential coded tones.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for predicting the peak voltage at the load end of a power transmission cable having a power supply end and a load end, where direct measurement at the load end is not practical. The method samples the current and voltage waveforms at the power supply end of the cable. The current waveform is used to estimate a current function which includes a full width at half maximum and adjustments for cable reactive current, distortions, and load. The product of the current function and a peak voltage sample from the power supply end is an estimate of the peak voltage at the load end. The method and apparatus have been applied to oil well logging where one or more logging tools are lowered at the end of a transmission cable into an oil well and it is desirable to predict peak voltage at the tools to ensure proper tool performance. An important improvement is a more accurate current function which compensates for capacitive current flow in the cable and includes a quadratic term. Additional improvements are described, namely a method for predicting downhole current, adjustments for power supply distortions, and diagnostic metrics.

    Abstract: An hydraulic cylinder (100) driven by a reciprocating motive force operates in conjunction with two check valves (170) and (200) to pump liquid toner concentrate (150) around a loop from a reservoir bottle (180) and back into the bottle (180). A microprocessor circuit (230) analyzes commands and data bytes representative of the number and color of pixels transmitted from a computer (290) to an electrographic printer (280). When a predetermined pixel count has been reached, a microprocessor circuit (230), acting on positional information obtained from an optical sensor (240) and marks (250) and (260) on a wheel (160), causes a previously calculated volume of concentrate (150) to be added to a toner premix stream or reservoir in printer (280), thus replacing toner particles depleted from toner premix in the printer (280) during printing. The wheel (160) can run continuously to provide a stirring action for the concentrate (150).

    Abstract: Improvements are disclosed in an ultrasonic display and recording system of the type utilized in diagnostic medicine with particular applicability in cardiovascular diagnosis. The system includes a multi-element transducer for generating and receiving ultrasonic energy which is propagated into and reflected back from the cardiovascular region of the patient being examined, and also includes means for generating a two-dimensional real time display and/or image of the zone of examination. TM recording means are associated with the system and may be actuated to effect a TM recording corresponding to a preselected region of the real time image being observed. An ECG output signal is also displayed in real time with the two-dimensional image, and photographs of the displays may be produced at selected points in the ECG cycle in accordance with a setting made by the system operator. The system includes provision for generating video recordings; and means for imposing various identification and time data upon the displays.
