摘要： A portable system for non-destructively measuring amount of coating on a metallic substrate based upon infrared absorbance includes a portable, hand-held measurement unit housed in a pistol-gripped case and an optical sensing unit that has an infrared source and a detector. The infrared source is configured to transmit infrared energy toward a metallic substrate having a coating thereon. The infrared energy passes through the coating, reflects off a surface of the substrate, passes back through the coating, and is detected by the detector. A processor correlates amount of infrared absorbance in the coating to amount of the coating. A base unit holds the hand-held measurement when not in use and charges a battery of the hand-held measurement unit. The base unit includes connectors for uploading and downloading data from and to the hand-held measurement unit and for communicating with an optional host computer.

摘要： Methods of screening for a tumor or tumor progression to the metastatic state are disclosed. The screening methods are based on the characterization of DNA by principal components analysis of spectral data yielded by Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy of DNA samples. The methods are applicable to a wide variety of DNA samples and cancer types. A model developed using multivariate normal distribution equations and discriminant analysis is particularly well suited for distinguishing primary cancerous tissue from metastatic cancerous tissue.

摘要： The present invention provides for an improved electromagnetic radiation detector having a micromachined electrostatic chopper/shutter device. The MEMS flexible film chopper/shutter device provides reliability, efficiency, noise reduction and temperature fluctuation compensation capabilities to the associated electromagnetic radiation detector. An electromagnetic radiation detector having an electrostatic chopper/shutter device includes a detector material element and flexible film actuator overlying the detector material layer and moveable relative thereto. The flexible film actuator will typically include an electrode element and a biasing element such that the actuator remains in a fully curled, open state absent electrostatic voltage and moves to a fully uncurled, closed state upon the application of electrostatic voltage.

摘要： A night vision system for a vehicle is provided. The system includes an illumination subsystem for illuminating a region proximate the vehicle, a receiver for receiving light reflected off objects in the illuminated region and generating a signal responsive to the received light. A GPS unit is included in operative communication with a GPS network for generating a time signal and vehicle directional data. A controller is programmed to periodically pulse on the illuminating device and the receiver substantially simultaneously as a function of the time signal and the vehicle directional data. In particular, vehicles traveling in opposite directions will have their night vision system activated out-of-phase with each other so that neither night vision system is nullblindednull by illumination emitting from the other.
