摘要:
An apparatus used in fingerprint identification for extracting minutia data from fingerprint image data. An optical sensor unit optically produces a sequence of fingerprint image data during a single operation of pressing a fingerpad onto an inspection plate in a direction substantially transverse to the plate and with increasing pressure over a time interval. A data storing unit stores the produced fingerprint image data in the form of a sequence of fingerprint image data obtained during the single operation of pressing the fingerpad onto the inspection plate. The stored fingerprint image data is utilizable for identification of the fingerprint.

An uneven-surface data detection apparatus, includes a transparent plate having an uneven-surface contact portion against which an uneven surface to be detected is pressed. A light source illuminates the uneven-surface contact portion through the transparent plate. An uneven-surface image drawing out optical element draws out the light reflected on the uneven-surface contact portion of the transparent plate. A detector detects the light drawn out from the transparent plate by the optical element.Light reflected by a projection-facing portion of the uneven surface contact portion to be introduced into the detector diverges from a propagation direction of light reflected by a recess-facing portion of the uneven surface contact portion. The optical element is arranged to guide the light reflected by the projection-facing portion into the detector.

A biological detecting system comprising a light source; a condensing optical system for condensing a light beam from the light source and irradiating the surface of a sample to be detected with a spot of light, an imaging optical system for condensing light reflected or scattered by an irradiated portion of the sample and forming an image of the irradiated portion at a predetermined location, and a photodetector arranged at the predetermined location to detect the size of the image of the irradiated portion and output a detection signal indicating the detected size of the image.

An uneven surface data detection apparatus for detecting an uneven surface, such as a human finger, having projected portions and recessed portions. A transparent base having upper and lower surfaces and an upper surface defining an uneven surface contact portion is provided, and a light is incident on the uneven surface so that the light derived from the recess portions enters to the transparent base and comes out thereof. However, a part of the light derived from the projected portions is totally reflected at least one time by the lower opposite surface and focussing lens is integrally formed on the transparent base so that the totally reflected light is drawn out of transparent base and enters to an image sensor.

An optical scanner suitable for use with a bar code reader includes a light source for generating a laser beam, a laser beam scanning device, a scanning pattern generating optical system, and a signal light condensing optical system for deflecting scattered signal light scattered by an object to be read to introduce the light to a photo-detector. The scanning pattern generating optical system or signal light condensing optical system includes strips of planar reflective holograms disposed substantially in parallel with each other in one plane to produce a reflection beam having an angle of reflection which is different from an angle of incidence of the laser beam thereon. Another embodiment discloses a condenser integrated with one of plane mirrors for deflecting the scan beam to form a hologram module of the reflection type. The scanner is a miniaturized apparatus as a result of the reflection holograms.

A method for detecting a tracking error in a process of tracking a groove track on a recording medium includes the steps of: irradiating a first light spot onto a groove track on a recording medium as a focused light beam for carrying out recording, reproducing, or erasing of information on the groove track of the recording medium; and irradiating a second and a third light spots onto an area around the groove track on the recording medium as focused light beams simultaneously with the irradiation of the first light spot, the second and third light spots are irradiated onto an area around the groove track on one side of the first light spot in a manner such that each of the second and third light spots covers both an inside and outside of the groove track.

A light beam scanning apparatus includes a rotatable holographic disk having a hologram which is constructed by an interference of a reference wave and an objective wave, which is a coma wave, the coma wave having a focal length which decreases toward the outer periphery from the inner periphery of the holographic disk in a radial direction. The focal length has a different direction perpendicular to the radial direction, so that when the hologram of the holographic disk which rotates is reconstructed by a reconstruction wave, the scanning is effected by the beams diffracted by the hologram.

A holographic deflection device having a tunable laser, and at least one hologram for deflecting light incident thereupon from the tunable laser, so that the deflection of the light can be controlled by a change of the wavelength of the beam from the tunable laser.
摘要:
A method for constructing a hologram on a transparent disk which includes two steps. First, irradiating a reference wave light beam having a diverging spherical wave front from a first point light source located at a predetermined distance on a center axis of the transparent disk. Second, irradiating an object wave light beam having a diverging spherical wave front from a second point light source located at a predetermined distance on a normal line away from a predetermined distance from the center axis. The result is interference between the reference wave light beam irradiated by the first point light source and the object wave light beam irradiated by the second point light source on the transparent disk and the formation of interference fringes having an extreme value of a spatial frequency as a hologram in one embodiment, a reconstruction beam is irradiated to the position, or in the vicinity of the extreme value.
摘要:
A laser beam scanner comprising a scanning window through which scanning beams are emitted, a plurality of hologram layers constituting the scanning window, and an optical system for impinging a laser beam on the hologram layers in a manner such that the trace of the laser beam scanning each hologram layer intersets that of the other hologram layers on the scanning window.
