20160052720 | Flow Restricted Positioner Control Apparatus and Methods - Particular embodiments of the inventive technology disclosed herein relate to the use of a dynamic valve to reduce motion caused by impulse force applied to a positioned component. Typically, the inventive technology finds application in an internally pressurized positioning system. At times, use of the inventive technology may lead to cost savings by, e.g., allowing for the use of smaller diameter positioner actuators and/or a reduced internal pressure. | 02-25-2016 |

20120168283 | Position Control Apparatus and Methods - Particular embodiments of the inventive technology may be described as a position control apparatus that comprises a fluidic drive system configured to drive, with a single fluidic displacement, each of a plurality of positioners in a first relative direction; and a bias system that includes a plurality of biasers that bias the positioners in a direction that is opposite the first relative direction. In particular embodiments, and as but a few of the many possible design features, positioner actuators may be fluidicly linked in parallel and with the fluid compressor, the positioner actuators may each include a piston; and a plurality of positioners may each be responsive to at least one of the pistons. | 07-05-2012 |
20120168284 | Position Control Apparatus - Particular embodiments of the inventive technology may be described as a position control apparatus capable of moving at least one side guide component of an item conveyance system to any of a plurality of component positions, as desired, within a component position range. The apparatus may comprise a fluidic drive system configured to drive, with a single fluidic displacement, a plurality of positioners in a first relative direction; and a bias system that includes a plurality of biasers that bias the positioners in a direction that is opposite the first relative direction. The bias system may include at least one biaser for every positioner, and the apparatus may enable adjustment of the positioners to a plurality of positions within a positioner range. The positioners may effect positioning, as desired, of the at least one component to a desired component position within the component position range. | 07-05-2012 |

20140218477 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CREATING A THREE DIMENSIONAL REPRESENTATION OF AN OBJECT - A method and a system for creating three dimensional representation of an object are provided. The method includes projecting a pattern image comprising one or more pattern elements and capturing an image of the object with the pattern image projected onto the object. The method includes extracting intensity values corresponding to at least two color components of each pixel of the captured image. For each color component, a probability map is generated using the corresponding intensity values. The probability map for a color component represents a probability that a pixel of the captured image is representing a part of a pattern element. A joint probability distribution is determined by combining the probability maps. Using the joint probability distribution, specific pattern elements are located in the captured image. The method includes determining three dimensional coordinates representing points on surface of the object based on the location of the specific pattern elements. | 08-07-2014 |

20100158313 | COUPLING ALIGNMENT APPARATUS AND METHOD - An apparatus for axially aligning a first coupling member and a second coupling member that can be connected so as to form a rotating assembly. The apparatus includes a measurement arrangement configured to be mounted onto the first coupling member and to be rotated therewith. The measurement arrangement includes an emitter arrangement configured to emit first and second signals in the direction of the second coupling member so as to cause at least a portion of said first and second signals to be reflected by the second coupling member. The measurement apparatus further has a capture arrangement configured to capture at least a portion of the first and second reflected signals. The apparatus includes a control arrangement configured to determine an offset in axial alignment between the first and second coupling member based on at least the first and second reflected signals. | 06-24-2010 |
20140177108 | POWER SYSTEM HAVING SHORT CIRCUIT PROTECTION CONTROLLER - A power system that supplies electrical power to at least one load is disclosed. The power system may include an electrical power generator, current sensors configured to provide current signals representative of currents output from the electrical power generator to the load, and voltage sensors configured to provide voltage signals representative of voltages output from the electrical power generator to the load. The power system may also include a controller configured to receive the current signals and the voltage signals, compare the current signals and the voltage signals to a predetermined map, determine whether a short circuit exists inside the electrical power generator based on the comparison, and send a command to turn off the electrical power generator when the short circuit exists inside the electrical power generator. | 06-26-2014 |
