摘要:
A method of facilitating focusing of a multi-function digital media drive, is such as to generate two or more error signals each indicative of a focus of an energy beam by an optical arrangement onto first and second different recording layers of a digital medium in the drive, the first recording layers being covered with a protective, energy beam transparent substrate. A selected on of the error signal is used to determine a focus correction.

An optical disk drive includes a spindle motor to turn an optical disk and an OPU configured to apply an image to a coating within a label region of the optical disk. An encoder is configured for tracking disk speed features on the optical disk in a region distinct from the label region defined on the disk. By tracking the disk speed features, the encoder obtains disk speed data for use in applying the image to the label region.

A projection screen is provided that includes a display surface having a plurality of elements. Each element has an optical property that is responsive to an appropriate applied voltage. The display surface may be configured so that the optical properties of each element may be coordinated with the projected image.

An apparatus includes an amplifier to provide a waveform to drive a print nozzle. The amplifier also provides a current proportional to a slew rate of the waveform. A pass gate to applies the waveform to the print nozzle in response to a drive signal. A level shifter adjusts the drive signal based on the current.
摘要:
A method controls an assembly using an oscillating wave, such that the assembly moves in an oscillated manner in relation to a surface of an optically writable medium in correspondence with oscillation of the oscillating wave. The assembly generates a beam towards the surface of the optically writable medium. A proximity signal is detected in response to the beam being generated towards the surface of the optical medium, and denotes closeness of the assembly to the surface. A number of peaks within the proximity signal are determined. The time at which each peak within the proximity signal occurs is correlated with a value of the oscillating wave at that time, yielding a number of time-value pairs. The topology of the surface of the optical medium is approximated from these time-value pairs.
