Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100285874METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETECTING AN IMAGE OF A REFLECTIVE OBJECT - A method of detecting an image of a reflective object includes the steps of: capturing an exposure image by an image sensor while an LED is ON; down-sampling an exposure image signal from the image sensor to a first digital signal by comparing the level of the first image signal with a first reference level; capturing a dark image by the image sensor while the LED is OFF; down-sampling a second image signal from the image sensor to a second digital signal by comparing the level of the second image signal with a second reference level; computing an image of difference between the exposure image and the dark image by subtracting the second digital signal from the first digital signal; and specifying the image of the reflective object by locating a bright point remaining in the image of difference.11-11-2010

Chun-Hsiung Hing, Hsinchu TW

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100007377METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR A SERIAL PERIPHERAL INTERFACE - An integrated circuit device includes a serial peripheral interface adapted for receiving a first command supporting an address of a first configuration, wherein the serial peripheral interface supports an address of a second configuration upon receipt of a second command, the second configuration being different from the first configuration. In a specific embodiment, the first and the second configurations are different in address length. In another embodiment, a second address cooperated with the second command has a first part and a second part, the second part comprising a plurality of byte addresses, each of the byte addresses being associated with a corresponding byte of data. In another embodiment, integrated circuit device also includes a mode logic circuit for controlling operations of the first command and the second command. Various other embodiments are also described.01-14-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080228793SYSTEM AND PROGRAM FOR APPEND MODE INSERTION OF ROWS INTO TABLES IN DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS - Implementation of append mode concurrent insert operations in tables in a page-based concurrent relational database management system is carried out by defining a set of last pages as a current cache into which rows may be inserted by appenders. Append mode insert operations for each page in the current cache are serialized. Appenders seek to access the pages in the current cache using a two-pass process in which latches are sought to be acquired conditionally in the first pass and unconditionally in the second pass. A shared data structure is provided to define a current cache and a next cache for a table supporting append mode inserts in the relational database. The shared data structure includes information reflecting the unused space for each page in the current cache.09-18-2008

20090310213Microscope - The invention is based on a microscope (12-17-2009
20100302631MICROSCOPE - The invention is based on a microscope, in particular a fluorescence analysis microscope, comprising an illumination carrier and illumination units arranged thereon for a reflected-light illumination of a sample region. In order to be able to illuminate a sample region uniformly in a simple manner by means of a compact device, it is proposed that at least three illumination units for the simultaneous reflected-light illumination of the sample region from different directions are arranged on the illumination carrier.12-02-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110017902METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR AUTOFOCUS - An autofocus apparatus and a method achieve a higher level of speed and robustness, and are particularly suited for fluorescence microscopy of biological samples, automated microscopy and scanning microscopy. A high speed is achieved via a light pattern in the sample, detected spatially resolved by a detector generating at least two signals corresponding to a reflex pattern of the light pattern. The two signals are subtracted generating a positioning signal and the focus of the objective in the sample is adjusted depending on the positioning signal.01-27-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110090332Image sensor device, apparatus and method for optical measurement - The invention relates to an apparatus and processes for optical measurement and detection with real-time closed-loop controls, which enable higher levels of performance. The invention is especially suitable for applications such as spectroscopy; microscopy; biochemical assays; processes and reactions on miniaturized formats (such as those involving micro-/nano-plates, micro-formats & micro-arrays, chemistry-on-chip, lab-on-chip, micro-channels and micro-fluidics, where dimensions are on micron scale and volumes are in the sub-nanoliter range). Such “intelligent sensing” allows higher data quality and reliability, higher measurement and analysis throughput and lower cost.04-21-2011
