    摘要: A microprocessor based electronic teaching aid which enables a student viewing a display containing text material being studied to designate any word or portion of text for definition or for vocalization by synthesized speech techniques wherein the reading material being studied is supplied in the form of a programmed Source ROM which contains pointers to the start addresses for the words of the reading material with reference to an internally provided dictionary. A program causes the creation of the text display responsive to the Source ROM data, and includes techniques for being able to define and vocalize any selected word. This combination of hardware and software permits a significant reduction in the cost of this teaching aid by elimination of disk drives or tape drives.

    摘要: A phased array ultrasonic imaging system is disclosed which combines aspects of both dynamic and pseudo-dynamic focusing. The system includes a linearly arranged array of side-by-side transducers adapted for propagating ultrasonic energy into a body to be ultrasonically examined and for receiving reradiated sonic energy from points within the body. A signal channel is connected to each of the transducers for activating same to propagate the sonic energy and for receiving electrical signals from the transducers (which correspond to the reradiated energy). Controllable delay means are provided in each of the channels for introducing linear phase shifts in the electrical signals proceeding in the channels during both transmission and reception to thereby azimuthally steer the transducer array. Means are further provided for processing the received signals proceeding through the channels and for combining same to effect a visual display of the bodily portion being examined. Means synchronized with the activating of the transmitters periodically reduce the gain of one or more symmetric outer transducer pairs of the array, thereby effecting reducing the aperture of the array to enable improved response to reflected acoustic information reaching the array from the near field thereof. The outer elements are similarly restored to enlarge the effective array aperture for improved response to reflected acoustic information arising from the far field of the array. Pursuant to the improvement of the invention, means are provided for adjusting the focal length of the array coincident with the aforementioned change in gain of the one or more outer transducer pairs, i.e., coincident with a change in effective aperture of the array in order to thereby maintain or achieve a desired resolution within a specified focal range.

    摘要: An object surrounded by media of differing acoustical impedances (e.g., an anatomical organ surrounded by other kinds of tissue within the human body) is acoustically imaged by an array of ultrasonic transducers affixed to the outer surface of an ultrasonic lens. In a preferred embodiment, the lens is homocentric, with the common center of curvature of the inner and outer surfaces of the lens being located at a relatively small acoustic aperture in the body so that object points distributed over a relatively large solid angle from the aperture can be imaged with minimum lens aberations. Where the object to be imaged is a human heart, the acoustic aperture is most conveniently located at an intercostal space between adjacent ribs.

    摘要: Short bursts of ultrasonic energy are directed through a three-dimensional specimen to determine the spatial distribution of those structures within the specimen capable of affecting the waveform of the energy. Transducers are placed in spaced positions about the periphery of the specimen to measure the affected parameters (such as attenuation and delay time) of the energy as a result of passing through the specimen along paths between the spaced transducers. The output signals containing this transit time and energy absorption information are retained in a data storage device. Through conventional programming techniques, a computer processes the data and calculates a velocity or absorption profile for each path. The profiles are collectively used to reconstruct two-dimensional or three-dimensional images of the specimen.

    摘要: A multimode resonator resonating at two or more frequencies is operated at cryogenic temperatures and composed of a superconducting material or a normal metal with a superconducting section serving as a RF superconducting switch. The multimode resonator is coupled to a NMR spectrometer and a RF switch power source, wherein its one frequency is selected to correspond to the operating frequency of the NMR spectrometer and at least a second frequency is tuned to a frequency of RF switch power source, unrelated to the spectrometer frequency, therefore power at this frequency does not perturb the operation of the spectrometer. When activated, the RF switch power source induces a current sufficient to approach or exceeds the critical current in one or more sections of the superconducting material of the multimode resonator, thereby increasing its resistance and reducing the Q factor of the multimode resonator.

    摘要: RF electric fields produced by electric potential differences in NMR probe coil windings may penetrate the NMR sample and sample tube causing sensitivity loss and noise in NMR spectroscopy. Counter-wound spiral coils placed on the opposite surfaces of a planar substrate or on two adjacent planar substrates produce electric potentials that minimize the electric field over the sample region, thereby increasing the sensitivity of the NMR probe. Alternatively counter-wound spiral coils placed adjacent to each other on the outer surface of two concentric cylindrical surfaces that surround the NMR sample minimize the electric field over the sample region. The electric potential of the spiral coils is reduced by adjusting a length of at least one coil.
