摘要： An amplifier-based system having pulsed output includes an amplifier for amplifying a time varying voltage signal to produce an output voltage signal. A voltage-to-current (V-I) converter converts the output voltage signal into a current signal. An output stage including a current integrator integrates the current signal to generate an integrated voltage. An amplitude to time converter generates a pulse train from the integrated voltage, wherein a timing of the pulses in the pulse train represents the original time varying voltage signal. The pulse train representation permits transmission and accurate remote reconstruction of the original time varying voltage signal, such as signals generated by electrodes implanted inside a subject, including neural signals.

摘要： A time domain sampling technique for a CMOS imager enables a wide dynamic range and flexibility by employing up to two-degrees of freedom during such sampling. Two degrees of freedom can be achieved by making one or both of an integration time and a reference (e.g., voltage or current) variable during sampling. The sampling (or image capture) is implemented by associating a time with when a pixel has a desired value relative to the reference in response to the pixel receiving incident light. The reference can be fixed or variable during different portions of the sampling, and further can be programmable to implement a desired sampling pattern for a given application.

摘要： This invention is primarily a "resistive fuse" circuit, being a hardware circuit that explicitly implements either analog or binary line processes in a controlled fashion. In a machine vision system for viewing an area and providing individual voltages representing the light intensity of a plurality of pixel positions within the area, this invention permits the method of operation for smoothing the individual voltages and simultaneously recognizing and preserving discontinuities in the area comprising the steps of, connecting respective ones of the individual voltages to respective ones of a plurality of intersections of a balanced network of indentical smoothing elements interconnected at intersections; allowing currents from the individual voltages to pass through the smoothing elements between the intersections and settle; within each element, providing a fixed resistance to voltages thereacross which are below a pre-established threshold amount and providing an infinite resistance to voltages thereacross which are above the pre-established threshold amount whereby as the currents flow the individual voltages are smoothed and discontinuities in the area reflected in the individual voltages are simultaneously recognized and preserved rather than being smoothed over; and, taking individual smoothed voltages from the intersections as data from the machine vision system for further processing. In a dynamically reconfigurable embodiment, the method further includes the steps of analyzing the individual smoothed voltages from the intersections to determine pixels associated with possible discontinuities and dynamically lowering said threshold amount in ones of the elements associated with pixels having possible discontinuities associated therewith whereby sensitivity to recognition of discontinuities is increased.

摘要： An object movement estimator (400) predicts optical flow by estimating changes in sensed images using one-dimensional correlations. Sensed image portions are stored at a first instant of time and compared with sensed image portions at a second instant of time. An optimal flow is estimated by performing a one-dimensional correlation of the sensed image portions at the first and second instants of time, and a time-to-contact is estimated based on the predicted optical flow thus obtained.
