20090318771 | SURGICAL LAMP FIELD SHAPE - A surgical lamp includes a lamp body with illuminants emitting bundled light beams with axes intersect a central axis of the lamp body, and illuminants emitting bundled light beams with axes that do not intersect the central axis. The shape of the light field and the distribution of the light intensity can be modified by driving different illuminants. | 12-24-2009 |
20090318772 | Surgical Lamp Beam Arrangement - A surgical lamp includes a lamp body with illuminants. Axes of bundled light beams emitted by the illuminants intersect a central axis at different positions along the central axis. | 12-24-2009 |
20100081887 | COLOR TEMPERATURE CORRECTION - A surgical lighting system includes a control device operable to adjust a color temperature of the surgical lamp, a camera, an image processing device, and means for transmitting color temperature information, corresponding to a set color temperature of the surgical lamp, to the image processing device. | 04-01-2010 |
20110118879 | Transmitting Instructions in a Medical Supply Unit - A medical supply unit includes a bus system for transmitting instructions of control elements to actuators. The bus system is provided with transmitters and receivers being connected to each other by a transmission system. Via the transmission system, commands of the transmitters are transmitted, which are controlled by the control elements, and the responsive receiver transfers the command to a switching instruction at an output of the responsive receiver so as to control an actuator. | 05-19-2011 |
20120075832 | Surgical Lamps and Related Systems and Methods - A surgical lamp includes a lamp body having at least one light source, wherein at least one bundle of light is emitted from the lamp body, a focusing device disposed in the lamp body for focusing the at least one bundle of light, and an operating device that is directly or indirectly connected to the focusing device and is configured to be covered by a sterilizable cover, where the operating device is configured to detect a predetermined motion sequence of an operator in a contactless manner and control the focusing device as a result of the predetermined motion sequence. | 03-29-2012 |
20140066722 | Surgical Lamps and Methods for Illuminating Operating Sites - A surgical lamp for illuminating an operating site includes a lamp body that includes first and second light sources that respectively generate first and second light fields of different diameter on the operating site. When a change in a distance between the lamp body and the operating site is detected, the first and second light intensities of the first and second light sources, respectively, can be controlled such that the predetermined diameter (dx) at which the preset relative central illuminance (Ecx) of the resultant light field is generated is maintained at a substantially constant value as the distance changes. | 03-06-2014 |

20120032096 | Optical Barrier to Pests - A device generates a light barrier that can be used for different purposes. The barrier consists of one or more surfaces (or volume) exhibiting an abrupt change in light intensity. In some embodiments the change in intensity affects animals, including insects, approaching or crossing it. In some embodiments, the light generates thermal or density variations in the air that cause air movements that perturb particles, such as pollen, or other pests to human activity. In some embodiments, an approach includes an optical barrier generator configured to emit light of an optical waveform above a threshold power in a portion of space positioned relative to the generator. The optical waveform above the threshold power is effective at perturbing a pest to human activity. | 02-09-2012 |
20130299591 | Systems and Methods for Fraud Prevention, Supply Chain Tracking, Secure Material Tracing and Information Encoding Using Isotopes and Other Markers - Encoding information in a material using a material tracing system includes storing information to be encoded in the material, generating a number based on the information, determining an amount of at least one tracer to be incorporated into the material corresponding to the number, and incorporating the determined amount of the at least one tracer into the material. Decoding information encoded in the material includes measuring an amount of the at least one tracer, in some embodiments after tracer activation, determining a number corresponding to the measured at least one tracer, and decoding the number to obtain information associated with the material. A material tracing system is also provided. | 11-14-2013 |
20140202961 | System for Cleansing Organisms from Water - Techniques for depleting target organisms in water include a waterproof transducer configured for ensonifying a container of water with low intensity sound at one or more ultrasound frequencies for a duration sufficient to prevent maturation of at least 90% of the target organism. In some cases the target organism is mosquito larvae. For example, a portable system for depleting target organisms in water includes a control system and a plurality of waterproof transducers. The system is configured for ensonifying a surface layer of water in an acoustic frequency range from about 40 kilohertz to about 100 kilohertz and in a power concentration range from about 35 milliwatts per milliliter to 100 milliwatts per milliliter for a duration in a range from about 1 to about 100 seconds. | 07-24-2014 |
