    摘要: An automatic system and method for non-invasive imaging and identification of specific ocular structures of the eye and adnexa tissues by synchronous segmentation of visual and infrared images; that can produce spatial temperature profiles within each segmented area of the eye and adnexa; that can track eye and head movement and eye-blinks during the period of measurement to remove artefacts and maintain synchronicity; that can track ocular surface and eye adnexa temperature profiles over time; that can assist in diagnosis of eye disease; that can produce diagnostic indicators for ocular disease diagnosis and study of the eye. The system comprises infrared and visible light cameras for imaging the ocular structures, and a digital signal processing unit for processing the acquired infrared and visible images to output segmentations of the images for identification of different areas of the eye surface, including pupil, cornea, conjunctiva, and eyelids. The system further captures synchronous infrared and visible images from each segmented area of the ocular surface over the time of measurement. A digital signal processing unit processes and analyzes the infrared and visible images to generate descriptive outputs on temporal and spatial changes in the infrared and visible images over the time of measurement, as well as produce diagnostic indicators for ocular disease diagnosis and study of the eye.

    摘要: Several embodiments of a novel technique for limiting transmission of fault current are disclosed. Current power distribution systems typically have an impedance, or reactor, on the output of the network equipment to limit current in the case of a fault condition. A low resistance switch, which changes its resistance in the presence of high current, is connected in parallel with this reactor. Thus, in normal operation, the current from the power generator bypasses the reactor, thereby minimizing power loss. However, in the presence of a fault, the resistance of the switch increases, forcing the current to pass through the reactor, thereby limiting the fault current.
