Abstract: Weighing apparatus and method. A plurality of weigh members are moveable in sequence in a continuous path. Each weigh member receives an item to be weighed and includes a member which is moveable in response to the weight of the carried item. Preferably, the moveable member is elastically deformable. When an item to be weighed is deposited on a weigh member, the moveable member moves in response to the weight and then "springs" back and so on in an oscillating fashion. The weigh members, each carrying an item to be weighed, are rapidly moved in sequence along the continuous path to a weighing location and the time, while short, is sufficient to permit oscillating movement of the moveable member to substantially cease by the time that the weigh member arrives at the weighing location. At the weighing location, electromagnetic radiation is impinged upon a boundary edge of the moveable member and a pattern of electromagnetic radiation is produced which is characterized by the position to which it moved in response to the weight of an item carried by the weigh member. In a preferred embodiment, the electromagnetic radiation is impinged upon two boundary edges, one fixed and one moving with the moveable member. Diffraction waves emanating from the boundary edges interact to form an interference pattern and the interference pattern is characteristic of the position of the moveable boundary edge relative to the fixed boundary edge. The pattern is analyzed to determine the weight of an item borne by each respective weigh member.

Abstract: A method and devices for sensing changes in separation of a first member relative to a second member, as well as variables causing such changes is disclosed. Electromagnetic waves diffracted by means included in said first member interact with waves from means included in said second member to form a characteristic interference pattern. Measured changes in this pattern allow determination of changes in separation.

Abstract: The disclosed invention relates to methods and apparatus for obtaining the dimension, position or angle of an object using a point on the object boundary surface to create a diffraction wave when illuminated by a laser beam or other source of electro-magnetic radiation. This diffraction wave is then analyzed to obtain information as to the position point tangent to the laser beam or the angular orientation of the object boundary at said object point.

Abstract: A method for enhancing a well-being of a small child or baby utilizes at least one TV camera positioned to observe one or more points on the child or an object associated with the child. Signals from the TV camera are outputted to a computer, which analyzes the output signals to determine a position or movement of the child or child associated object. The determined position or movement is then compared to preprogrammed criteria in the computer to determine a correlation or importance, and thereby to provide data to the child.
