摘要:
Apparatus for detecting ionizing radiation includes a mobile telephone, including an imaging assembly, which includes a solid-state image sensor. A radiation converter is mounted in proximity to the image sensor and is configured to emit, in response to the ionizing radiation, lower-energy radiation for detection by the image sensor. A processor, contained in the mobile telephone, is configured to process images captured by the image sensor so as to assess an intensity of the ionizing radiation.
摘要:
A method for detection of an object, the method including irradiating a target with two electromagnetic wave energy beams, a first beam at a first frequency and a second beam at a second frequency, the first frequency being lower than the second frequency, both beams being polarized in a first direction, and determining a presence of an object by analyzing reflections of the first and second beams, wherein if there is a dominant reflection polarization in the first direction for both the first and second frequencies, then the target is considered not to have the object, and if there is a dominant reflection polarization in the first direction for only one of the first and second frequencies and a depolarized reflection at the other of the first and second frequencies, then the target is considered to have the object.

摘要:
A system (2) for non-invasive measurement of the osmolality of biological tissue fluid in a living specimen (3) includes an RF generator for generating RF signals and transmitting these via an appropriate antenna towards tissue of a living specimen. An RF receiver (8) is coupled to another antenna, for receiving and measuring the intensity the RF signals reflected from aforementioned tissue, and for feeding said intensity to a processor (10) for comparison of relative reflection intensities of at least two RF frequencies impinging on the tissue with a reference reflection ratio signal.
摘要:
A system for the production of localized audible sound, including a source of voltage oscillations in the ultrasonic frequency range, at a reference frequency. The voltage source is connected to a first ultrasonic transducer, emitting a first beam of ultrasonic waves (the reference beam) in a relatively narrow beam, in a desired direction. The same voltage source is connected to a phase shifter, feeding a second ultrasonic transducer from which an ultrasonic wave is emitted, of the same frequency and intensity as the reference beam, but phase shifted relative to it.
