Abstract:
The calibrating system 100 includes a conveyance system 102 for carrying work products 104 arranged in multiple lanes extending along the conveyor to be trimmed and/or cut into portions P. A scanner 110 scans the work product and a cutter system 120 consisting of one or more cutters are arranged in an array or series of cutter assemblies for cutting the work products into end pieces P of desired sizes or other physical parameters. A processor/computer 150, using a scanning program or portioning program, determines how the work product may be portioned into one or more end piece product sets. The processor/computer using the portioning software then functions as a controller to control the cutter system 120 to portion the workpiece 104 according to the selected end product/pieces P.
Abstract:
A tilt adjusting image including a captured image that is obtained by capturing a wearer wearing a spectacle-type electronic device, and a horizontal line image indicating a horizontal direction identified by a tilt identification part, is displayed. The wearer adjusts a position of the spectacle-type electronic device by a wearer's hand or the like while viewing the tilt adjusting image so that the spectacle-type electronic device becomes horizontal. When the wearer judges that the spectacle-type electronic device has become horizontal, the wearer operates an operation part and inputs a calibration instruction. When the calibration instruction is input, the calibration instruction is transmitted to the spectacle-type electronic device.
Abstract:
Methods for matching semiconductor processing chambers using a calibrated spectrometer are disclosed. In one embodiment, plasma attributes are measured for a process in a reference chamber and a process in an aged chamber. Using a calibrated light source, an optical path equivalent to an optical path in a reference chamber and an optical path in an aged chamber can be compared by determining a correction factor. The correction factor is applied to adjust a measured intensity of plasma radiation through the optical path in the aged chamber. Comparing a measured intensity of plasma radiation in the reference chamber and the adjusted measured intensity in the aged chamber provide an indication of changed chamber conditions. A magnitude of change between the two intensities can be used to adjust the process parameters to yield a processed substrate from the aged chamber which matches that of the reference chamber.
Abstract:
A method of generating view-dependent compensated images is disclosed. A uniform image is projected on a reflective screen, resulting in a first captured image. The distribution of specular highlight is predicted according to the first captured image, thereby obtaining model parameters. Calibration images are estimated according to the model parameters and a viewing angle, and a compensated image is generated according to the calibration images at the viewing angle.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for making it possible to easily and simply measure approximate concentration of substitutional carbon impurities in a desired position in a polycrystalline silicon rod. A polycrystalline silicon plate is sliced out from a polycrystalline silicon rod and both surfaces of the polycrystalline silicon plate are mirror-polished to reduce the polycrystalline silicon plate to thickness of 2.12±0.01 mm. A calibration curve is created according to an infrared absorption spectroscopy and on the basis of a standard measurement method using a single crystal silicon standard sample having known substitutional carbon concentration and thickness of 2.00±0.01 mm, an infrared absorption spectrum in a frequency domain including an absorption zone peak of substitutional carbon of the polycrystalline silicon plate after the mirror polishing is calculated under conditions same as conditions during the calibration curve creation, and substitutional carbon concentration is calculated without performing thickness correction.
Abstract:
In a gyroscopic system comprising at least four vibratory gyroscopes, a first measurement is provided by said vibratory gyroscope to be calibrated, and a second measurement is provided by a combination of the measurements from the other vibratory gyroscopes of the system. At the level of the vibratory gyroscope to be calibrated, an initial command is applied in order to command a change in position from a first vibration position (θ1) to a second vibration position (θ2). A calibrated scale factor value of the vibratory gyroscope to be calibrated is then determined on the basis of a calculated value in relation to the change in position, based on the period of time during which the initial command is applied, the initial command, an angular difference between the first and second vibration positions measured according to the first measurement and an angular difference between the first and second vibration positions measured according to the second measurement.

An antenna in a radar sensor is vibrated at a known frequency and velocity in a direction generally normal to the antenna surface. A response received by the antenna is used to scale or calibrate sensor responses at frequencies of interest.
Abstract:
A method is disclosed for homogenization of threshold values of a multichannel, quanta-counting radiation detector. In an embodiment of the method empty measurements are carried out with the detector at different spectral compositions of the radiation with different settings of threshold values of the comparators. For each channel of which the comparators is to be set to the same energy threshold, an adapted threshold value is determined for this energy threshold from the empty measurement, at which a variation of the normalized count rate of the channel is minimized over the different spectral compositions of the radiation. This avoids problems in the further processing of the measurement data of the detector, which can occur during alterations of the spectrum.
