A control device comprises: a movement control unit configured to control movement of an object; a detecting unit configured to optically detect, at a specific position, the object moving through control by the movement control unit, to thereby output a detection voltage; and a movement amount determining unit configured to determine a movement amount of the object to be moved through the control by the movement control unit, based on a tendency of a change in the detection voltage when the object is moved.

A signage system (10) including one or more visual display devices (11), each mounted for display behind the windshield (15) of one or more parked and ignition-off vehicles (16). Each sign (11) has a visual display surface (12) that is capable of forming an illuminated graphic display (13) on the visual display surface (12). The visual display surface (12) would be visible to observers in front of the vehicle (16). The system (10) includes wireless communication hardware (60) that allows the visual display (11) to be programmed by a remote programming device (41). Each of the display devices (11) can be programmed to have a separate message and each message would scroll from left to right across the display surface (12) in a time coordinated manner so that the message appears to scroll consistently from left to right across the visual field of the plurality of display surfaces (12).
摘要:
An optoelectronic module has multiple optical channels each of which includes a respective optical element at a different height within the module. The modules can include channels arranged side-by-side where each channel is covered by a respective cover that is optically transmissive to one or more wavelengths of light emitted by or detectable by the optoelectronic devices in the module. The transmissive covers, which respectively can include one or more passive optical elements on their surfaces, are disposed at different heights within the module.

To provide an optical sensor that can ensure accuracy of positions of a light projecting unit and a light receiving unit in a case. The optical sensor includes a case, an integrated light projecting module that includes a light emitting unit and a light projecting lens, a light receiving unit configured to receive reflected light of light projected from the light projecting module, and a light receiving lens unit configured to form an image of the reflected light on the light receiving unit. The light projecting module, the light receiving unit, and the light receiving lens unit are each independently and directly fixed to the case.

An apparatus is provided for RF signal discrimination. A master laser of the apparatus is connected to an optical input of an optical phase modulator. The optical phase modulator is configured to receive a plurality of RF signals at an RF input and further configured to receive an output from the master laser at an optical input. A slave laser operating below a lasing threshold is configured to receive a modulated output from the optical phase modulator. An optical filter is configured to receive a mixed signal generated inside the slave laser. A photodetector receives the filtered mixed signal and is configured to recover a RF signal from the plurality of RF signals, where a frequency of a sideband of the recovered RF signal corresponds to a mode of the slave laser.

In embodiments of translucent object presence and condition detection based on detected light intensity, a light is emitted and directed at a first edge of a translucent object along its thickness to pass through the translucent object, such as a lens. An intensity of the light is detected proximate an opposing, second edge of the translucent object. A presence and/or a condition of the translucent object can then be determined based on the detected intensity of the light that passes through the translucent object, where the detected intensity of the light that passes through the translucent object is relative and indicates one of: the presence of the translucent object based on a lower intensity of the light, or the translucent object is not present based on a higher intensity of the light.
摘要:
A novel standard light source with a more simplified construction, which is suitable for measurement of total luminous flux of a light source different in luminous intensity distribution characteristics from a conventional standard light source, and a measurement method with the use of that standard light source are provided. A standard light source includes a light emitting portion, a power feed portion electrically connected to the light emitting portion, and a restriction portion provided between the light emitting portion and the power feed portion, for restricting propagation of light radiated from the light emitting portion toward the power feed portion. A surface of the restriction portion on which light from the light emitting portion is incident is constructed for diffuse reflection.

The present invention concerns a method for the detection of sunlight with a detector arrangement that delivers an output signal as a function of incident sunlight. In the method a detector arrangement is deployed with an SiC-semiconductor detector, which is only sensitive to the UV-component of the incident sunlight. By the deployment of such a detector arrangement a disturbance of the sunlight detection by artificial light sources is to a large extent avoided, so that a more reliable detection of the sunlight is enabled.

There is provided an apparatus, a method and computer program product for improving a night vision. A pair of eyeglasses comprises: a sensor that detects an intensity of a light near a user; a comparator device that compares the detected light intensity near the user against a dimness threshold; and an onboard projector in the pair of eyeglasses projecting a red light simultaneously into each eye of the user if the detected light intensity near the user becomes lower than the threshold.
