摘要： A biosensor comprises a scanner (3) for applying a scan angle to a light beam and also for applying a high frequency oscillation or dither centred on the scan angle. The scannable oscillating beam is directed to a surface plasmon resonance interface (8) whence light is reflected to a photodetector (10). If the scan angle departs from the resonance angle, the reflected light has a component at the dither frequency. The detector detects this component and derives from it an error signal (5) which is fed back to control the scanner (3) to cause the scan angle to track the resonance angle. A further embodiment applies a high frequency variation in wavelength, the scan angle being fixed.

摘要： A method and apparatus is described in which by differential illumination, two separate picture signals can be obtained of a subject in front of a background one of which corresponds to a silhouette of the subject and a gating signal is derived from the silhouette size and the other a normal picture signal of the subject and the background. By using the gating signal, signal content of the subject from the background signal content in the said other picture signal, so the background can be sublimated relative to the subject for example by substituting for a "busy background" a plain neutral background which contains no shadow. Differential illumination is achieved using visible light followed by infrared light or vice versa or by illuminating the subject and background from the front for one scan and back illuminating the subject during the other scan, to produce the silhouette signal by illuminating the subject and the background by an intense source of illumination so that the subject appears very bright against a less bright background. By synchronously switching the video signal which contains image content relating to both subject and background, the latter can be removed from the subject image content so the latter can be superimposed onto a different background. A second secondary image may be produced using side or top illumination to cast a shadow adjacent a particular feature. Image analysis may be used to detect the position of the shadow to enable the feature position to be determined. The technique is of particular application to the automatic production of passport photographs.

摘要： There is described an optical free-space signalling system for signalling between a distribution node and a plurality of remote terminals. Each of the remote terminals includes a light source, a lens system for directing light emitted by the light source to the distribution node, and a detector which detects a modulated light beam from the distribution node and generates an electrical signal which varies in dependence upon data conveyed by the modulated light beam. The distribution node comprises a main receiver for receiving data to be transmitted to the plurality of remote terminals, and a plurality of separate modulator units. Each modulator unit has a housing which supports a retro-reflector which reflects light received from a corresponding remote terminal back to the corresponding remote terminal, and a modulator which modulates the reflected light in accordance with received data to form the modulated light beam. By using plural modulator units, the functionality of each individual modulator unit can be simplified.

摘要： A free space point-to-point signaling system is described in which optical beams generated by two free space transceiver units are optically aligned with each other using beam steering techniques. Once aligned, each transceiver unit detects the received signal strength and transmits this information to the other transceiver unit. This information is used by the other transceiver unit to vary the signal strength of the beam that it transmits and to optimise the alignment between the light beams transmitted by the two transceiver units. The determined received signal strength measure is also used to detect if the two transceiver units have become misaligned or if the beams have been interrupted, so that the transmission power can be reduced if necessary or so that the alignment procedure can be restarted.

摘要： An optical communications system is provided compraising first and second signalling devices in which a duplex communication link between the signalling devices is establised. The first siganalling device includes a recto-reflector and the second signalling device includes at least one light source for directing light towards the recto-reflector. A full duplex communication link is described which uses small signal modulation techniques to differentiate the uplink modulation data transmitted from the second signalling device to the first signalling device from the downlink modulation data transmitted from the first signalling device to the second signalling device. The strength of the reflected signalis monitored and used as part of a control loop to control the power level of the transmitted light.
