20110095772DAMAGE SENSORS AND PROCESSING ARRANGEMENTS THEREFOR - A damage sensor, for example a crack gauge, a method of providing the same, and a method of sensing damage using the same, are described. The damage sensor comprises at least one direct write resistive element applied to an area of a substrate by a direct write process. Conductive tracks may be connected along two separated portions of the perimeter of the area of the direct write resistive element. The damage sensor may comprise plural direct write resistive elements, for example rectangular-shaped elements, each extending between and connected to two conducting tracks. In a further damage sensor, plural annular resistive elements are positioned in an annular arrangement with respect to each other. In all the damage sensors, the resistive elements may be applied around a hole in a substrate, or extending over a bonded edge between two substrates.04-28-2011

20090007688Damage Sensors - A damage sensor comprises a probe track, a sense track, and a signal generator operable to input a probe signal to the probe track. The probe track and the sense track are electromagnetically coupled by a structure on which they are provided, such that the probe signal induces, in dependence on the degree of electromagnetic coupling between the probe track and the sense track, a sensed signal in the sense track. The magnitude, phase and frequency of the sensed signal can be analysed in order to determine whether and where damage has occurred to the structure.01-08-2009
20090279323HEAT DISTRIBUTION IN A DISTRIBUTED LIGHTING APPARATUS - Described herein is an apparatus which is, under a range of atmospheric conditions, capable of maintaining the emission of light at a point remote from a light source. Notably, the apparatus is able to heat and distribute a fluid, and by doing so, prevents condensation and ice from forming which could hamper the emission of light. The apparatus comprises a light source and a light emitter, with a light conduit and a fluid conduit running between.11-12-2009

20120019676AUTOFOCUS APPARATUS AND METHOD - In automatically focusing on a subject in the field of view of a camera device, the camera device sets a focal length successively at one or more focal positions with an angle of the focus plane tilted so as not to be orthogonal to a normal optical path through the camera device. An image is taken at each of the focal positions. A comparison of data from each image is made so as to determine best focus. This comparison includes comparing data from at least two different locations along the tilted focus plane of at least one of the images.01-26-2012
