摘要： A projection system includes first and second light sources which are disposed at an angle with respect to each other and are activated during respective different phases of an illumination cycle to illuminate a spot on different sides of a segmented rotary filter wheel. The filter wheel is alternately used to transmit light from one of the light sources, and to reflect light from the other light source, to a light valve, the output of which is projected onto a screen. The wheel segments may be alternately clear and mirrored or may alternately transmit and reflect colors to produce color sequential illumination of the light valve. In addition to filter wheels producing sequences of red, blue, green illumination, including the possibility of splitting a color phase into non-adjacent smaller phases to reduce color artifacts, a simple filter wheel which in two rotations produces a sequence of red, blue, green, cyan, magenta, yellow color illumination, resulting in an expanded color gamut, is also disclosed. Blanking intervals during which both lamps are turned off span each passage of a segment boundary through the spot.

摘要： A color correction system for a video projection system utilizing a single light valve for modulating light impinging thereon with a video signal and three projection lamps, one for each of the primary colors, which are activated sequentially. Positioned in the light path between two of the lamps and the light valve are occluders which block and unblock the light output from their associated lamp. The lamps which have the occluders are operated such that each lamp may be driven with a series of non-occluded pulses and occluded pulses. The occluded pulses occur when the occluder blocks the light output from the lamp. The more a desired reduction in light output in one of the colors is required, the non-occluded pulses are reduced and the corresponding occluded pulses are increased. This permits adjustment of the colorimetry of the system without adversely affecting the electrical properties of the lamp. As such, the electrical power input to each of the lamps remains within operational parameters but the light output of a particular color as seen by the light valve, and thus the viewer, may be reduced.

摘要： The present invention relates to a method of generating an image having a desired brightness, which image is generated by means of a device provided with at least one light source, at least one electro-optical light modulation panel and at least one light-control device. The light from the light source is converted into an image having a desired brightness via at least the electro-optical light modulation panel and the light-control device. The image to be projected is analyzed in a regulator, whereafter the electro-optical light modulation panel and the light-control device are driven, while a too bright image is generated by means of the electro-optical light modulation panel, which image is converted by means of the light-control device into an image having a desired brightness and a desired contrast.

摘要： A calibration/surgical tool (90, 160) includes an electromagnetic sensor array (30) of two or more electromagnetic sensors in a known geometrical configuration. Electromagnetic tracking errors are characterized by a mapping of pre-operative absolute and relative errors based on a movement of a calibrated calibration/surgical tool (90, 160) through a pre-operative electromagnetic field. Using statistical mapping, a desired absolute error field (46) is measured either in the clinic as the part of daily quality control checks, or before the patient comes in or in vivo. A resulting error field (46) may be displayed to the physician to provide clear visual feedback about measurement confidence or reliability of localization estimates of the absolute errors in electromagnetic tracking.

摘要： A method, system and apparatus for manufacturing anatomically and functionally accurate soft tissue phantoms with multimodality characteristics for imaging studies is disclosed. The organ/tissue phantom is constructed by filling a container containing an organ having inner vasculature therein with a molten elastomeric material; inserting a plurality of rods with bumps thereupon through the container and the organ; allowing the molten elastomeric material to harden and cure; removing the organ; replacing the organ with a plurality of elastomeric segments; and removing an elastomeric segment and replacing the void created thereupon with molten PVA to create a PVA segment; allowing the molten PVA segment to harden and cure; and repeating the creation of PVA segments until all the elastomeric segments have been removed, such that each successive molten PVA segment adheres to and fuses with the previous hardened PVA segment so as to form an approximately complete organ phantom cast. The organ/tissue phantom is completed by inserting the approximately complete organ phantom cast inserting upside-down into a fixture made from the bottom-most elastomeric segment, which contains molten PVA; and allowing the molten PVA to harden and cure.
