20140195023 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FEEDBACK ON RUNNING STYLE FIELD AND BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION - The invention relates to a system and method for providing feedback to a user on his or her running style or running technique. The system employs a pressure sensitive surface to record a gait line of the center of pressure exerted by the user's foot on an underlying surface during a footstep period. In case of a fore or mid-foot landing the gait line may be observed to move backwards with respect to the sagittal plane. From a backwards-going gait line two time stamps are determined. The first timestamp T1 is the time that the foot strikes the ground. The second timestamp T2 is the time that the gait line reaches the most backward position. From the time difference between these two timestamps a loading time dT is determined. The reactivity of the running style describes the viscoelastic behavior of the muscle-tendon unit and may be calculated as a function of this loading time and/or the distance moved by the centre of pressure backwards towards the heel. Correspondingly, a feedback signal may be provided to the user about his running reactivity. | 07-10-2014 |

20160093468 | METHOD OF REDUCING THE THICKNESS OF A TARGET SAMPLE - A method is provided of reducing the thickness of a region of a target sample. Reference data is obtained that is representative of x-rays generated by a particle beam being directed upon part of a reference sample under a first set of beam conditions. Under a second set of beam conditions the particle beam is directed upon the region of the target sample. The resultant x-rays are monitored as monitored data. Output data are then calculated based upon the reference and the monitored data. Material is then removed from the region, so as to reduce its thickness, in accordance with the output data. | 03-31-2016 |

20140035943 | MATERIAL IDENTIFICATION USING MULTIPLE IMAGES - A computer-implemented method of image processing for materials analysis is provided. At least three image datasets are obtained, these representing intensity values of image pixels and being in common spatial registration. The image datasets are processed so as to assign a comparison measure to each pair of image datasets, the comparison measure for a given pair of image datasets being representative of the difference between the spatial intensity information within the pair. A number of image datasets are then selected using the comparison measures. A colour difference measure is defined which represents the difference between pairs of colours of a colour set. Colours are assigned to the selected image datasets such that pairs of the selected image datasets which have substantially different spatial intensity information are assigned respective colours which have a substantially different colour difference measure. A number of the selected image datasets are then combined together to form an output colour image dataset for the formation of a colour image. The combination is such that each pixel of the colour image takes on a colour according to the relative intensities and colours of the selected image datasets so that if the pixel intensity of one dataset is substantially greater than the sum of the pixel intensities for all the other selected datasets, then the output colour in the respective part of the image will substantially match the colour assigned to that image dataset. | 02-06-2014 |
