摘要： A motion monitor which produces audible sound representative of motions of a subject or object being monitored, including a carrier, an optical fiber carried by the carrier, a laser source for injecting a laser beam in the optical fiber to produce a speckle light pattern at the output of the optical fiber, a photodetector for producing an output signal representative of modal noise developed in the optical fiber due to physical movement of the fiber, an amplifier for amplifying the output of the photodetector, and a loudspeaker which converts the amplified signals to audible sound representative of the modal noise at the fiber output. Optionally, the signals produced by the photodetector are shifted to a higher frequency range, e.g., the 500-700 Hz range, thereby to enable use of conventional inexpensive electronics and efficient loudspeakers. In one embodiment involving monitoring of a person, the frequency shifted output of the photodetector is transmitted to a remote location for remote monitoring of movements of the person. In another embodiment, the loudspeaker is mounted on the carrier and produces sound mimicking movement of the subject or object to which the carrier is attached.

摘要： Acoustic radiators which are focused diffractively by multi-discrete-phase binary Fresnel lenses are provided for applications, such as acoustic ink printing. Standard semiconductor integrated circuit techniques are available for fabricating such lenses in compliance with design specifications having relatively tight tolerances, including specifications for integrated lens arrays demanding substantial precision in the relative spatial positioning of several lenses. The diffractive performance of these lenses simulate concave refractive lenses, even though the lenses preferably have generally flat geometries. To that end, the lenses advantageously are defined by patterning acoustically flat surfaces, such as an acoustically flat face of a substrate or, better yet, an acoustically flat face of a layer of etchable material which is grown or otherwise deposited on an acoustically flat surface of an etch resistant substrate.

摘要： An optical scanning system in which a focused light beam is scanned across an image plane by a rotating or reciprocating scan mirror and wherein the field curvature of the focused light beam is substantially reduced by moving the point of intersection between the optic axis of the scanning light beam and the scan mirror as a function of the rotation or reciprocation of the scan mirror and wherein movement of that point of intersection is controlled by having the distance R between the mirror and its point of rotation or reciprocation and the distance h between the image plane and the point of intersection of the optic axis of the scanning beam and the scan mirror approximate the relationship R=2.sqroot.2h. In the case of the scan mirror having a reciprocating movement, the optical scanning system compensates for non-linearity in the sweep of the scanning light beam across the image plane by utilizing a non-linear lever system to reciprocate the scan mirror.

摘要： Techniques for improving droplet uniformity in acoustic ink printing. Row to row variations in an average droplet characteristic are reduced by controlling the electric power applied to the droplet ejectors of the individual rows. By applying the proper power to each row, the average droplet characteristic from the individual rows are made substantially. Another technique varies the efficiency of the individual droplet ejectors by physically trimming (such as with a laser) one or more of its components. Trimming may be performed on a droplet ejector's transducer, varactor, one or more associated resistors, or one or more capacitors. Yet another technique controls droplet ejector efficiency by electrically controlling the capacitance of a varactor associated with each droplet ejector, and thus each droplet ejector's efficiency. The voltage applied to each varactor may be controlled as a function of its column (to improve column to column uniformity), row (to improve row to row uniformity) or as a function of its column and row (to control the efficiency of the individual droplet ejector).

摘要： A multi-emitter extended source solid state laser designed to omit light beams at multiple wavelengths within a narrow total spectral bandwidth, that is, a relatively incoherent composite output beam of narrow total spectral bandwidth, is used as the input to a multimode optical fiber of an optic communications link or network. By providing an incoherent composite laser input beam to the fiber, modal noise due to coherence effects are virtually eliminated so that such effects no longer affect network performance. In addition, because the source is extended, a more uniform illumination of the fiber face is achieved. An exemplary multi-emitter laser would consist of an array of simultaneously driven emitting regions or cavities which operate in multiple longitudinal modes.

摘要： An active T-coupler for fiber optic local networks which permits collision detection wherein two input 36, 44 optical fibers are coupled to photodetectors 360, 440, respectively. Two output 34, 46 optical fibers are coupled to receive light from light sources 340, 460. Driving sources 340, 460 are gate circuits 342, 462, which function in a manner similar to an OR gate, via driver circuits 341, 461. These OR gates receive electrical signals from the host station or an input light fiber detector. Further, the input detectors 360, 440 provide electrical signals to the driving OR gates 342, 462 to pass the signal on, i.e. repeat, or drive OR gate 370 to transmit the signal to the host station. Thus the coupler can act as an optical repeater or transmit originally generated light signals in either the forward or reverse directions. Further, the host station can monitor the electrical signals from the input detectors to detect the occurrence of a data collision while transmitting and thereby react appropriately.

摘要： A disk drive system is described for forming and reading precise optically detectable patterns on rotating members of a disk and spindle assembly used in data storage system. In particular the invention describes a magnetic disk drive employing a laser system to form and sense optical clock patterns placed on the rotating members of the disk drive. These optically detectable patterns are used to create an accurate clock track. The clock may be used to create multiple accurate magnetic patterns on one or more disks attached to a disk and spindle assembly in a magnetic data storage system. By successively changing the radius at which the magnetic patterns are created it is then possible to create multiple magnetic patterns at successive radii with all such magnetic patterns having a precise geometric relationship to each other. Alternatively, the accurate clock pattern may stand alone as an encoder. Additionally, the laser system may also be used to form textured surfaces on a disk to control the flying characteristics of a magnetic head slider assembly. These textured surfaces may also serve as a resting area for the magnetic head slider assembly when the disk is not spinning.

摘要： A motion monitor using coherent or partially coherent light passing through an optical fiber which is in contact or close to an object whose motion is to be monitored. An optical speckle pattern is formed near the output of the optical fiber which pattern changes as the fiber moves in response to the motion of the object being monitored. An optical detector monitors all or a part of the speckle pattern and electronically processes the optical detector's electrical output signals to derive information on the status of the object being monitored.

摘要： To improve the tolerance of acoustic ink printers to changes in their free ink surface levels, provision is made for significantly reducing the effect of half wave resonances on the acoustic power density of the acoustic beam or beams that are incident on the free ink surface of such a printer, thereby reducing its focusing sensitivity. Some of the approaches that are taken to accomplish this rely upon acoustic losses to damp out the halfwave resonances and anti-resonances, while others employ multi-frequency rf voltage pulses for driving the droplet ejector or ejectors so that the acoustic power perturbations caused by the half wave resonances and anti-resonances of the different frequencies tend to neutralize each other. Indeed, the use of an acoustically lossy ink to dampen the half wave resonances and anti-resonances is compatible with selecting the frequency content of the acoustic radiation to neutralize them, so a combination of those two techniques can be employed, if desired, to carry out this invention.
