A fluid sensor for use within the gastro-intestinal tract of a human being is disclosed. The sensor includes a sensing coil which is immersible in the sample fluid of the gastro-intestinal tract; a signal generator in electrical with the sensing coil for applying an electrical current pulse to the sensing coil; a signal receiver in communication with the sensing coil for measuring an electrical reflection relative to said electrical current pulse; and a data processor for receiving the electrical reflection and for calculating data representative of at least one property, such as pH of the sample fluid based on the electrical reflection. The fluid sensor can also include a reference coil for calibrating the sensing coil. The sensor coil and reference coil can be encapsulated in a swallowable pill shell. The sensor coil can also function as an antenna for transmitting and receiving signals to/form a remote location.

A magnetic resonance examination system comprises an RF-system for inducing resonance in polarized dipoles and receiving magnetic resonance signals from an object to be examined. A thermometry module dervies a temperature distribution of the object to be examined from the magnetic resonance signals. The magnetic resonance examination system further comprises a photonic-based hyperpolarization device with a photonic source for emitting electromagnetic radiation, a moder converter, such as a phase hologram to impart orbital angular momentum to the electromagnetic radiation and via spatial filter to select from the phase hologram a diffracted photonic beam endowed with orbital angular momentum for polarizing the dipoles via transferred orbital angular momentum.

One or more light beam endowed with photonic orbital angular momentum generating devices are mounted at preselected locations on an insertable instrument to hyperpolarize nuclear magnetic dipoles in a region of interest. The hyperpolarized nuclear magnetic dipoles are caused to resonate, generating magnetic resonance signals. A controller controls gradient coils to induce a magnetic field gradient across the region of interest, such that the frequency of the resonance signals is indicative of spatial positions. A frequency-to-position decoder converts the resonance signal frequencies into spatial positions. A video processor combines the spatial positions and a portion of a diagnostic image from a diagnostic image memory into a combined image which depicts the location of the region of interest or a portion of the instrument marked on the diagnostic image and displays the combined image on a monitor.

In an electro-optic display device, such as a liquid crystal display device which serves as a modulator for projected light, a global ramp generator is used in conjunction with track and hold circuits to convert incoming digital display signals to analog signals, and to address the individual pixels of the display device with such analog signals. A plurality of column drivers, each coupled to the ramp generator and to the pixels in a column of the display device, track and hold the ramp voltage signal when it reaches a value corresponding to the desired brightness level of a particular pixel in the respective column. At least one current source is provided, coupled to the signal source output, for supplying current to the signal source output, as needed, to compensate for switching the capacitive load of the column drivers on and off. As a result, transient voltages in the ramp signal are avoided.

An electroholographic display system (800, 900) for displaying a holographic image, includes a coherent light source (830, 930) producing a coherent, collimated, light beam; a spatial light modulator (SLM) (820, 920) adapted to receive and spatially modulate the coherent, collimated, light beam to produce therefrom a spatially modulated light beam including first portions having a first polarization and second portions having a second polarization orthogonal to the first polarization; and a processor and driver unit (810, 910) adapted to generate hologram data representing a holographic image and to apply appropriate voltages to the pixels of the SLM to cause the SLM to modulate the coherent collimated light beam with the hologram data. The spatially modulated light beam is projected to an image plane to produce the holographic image including the first portions having the first polarization and the second portions having a second polarization orthogonal to the first polarization.
