  • Patent number: 10983006
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an optical system including at least one objective lens (2) for receiving light from an object (1), an array of image forming elements (4) for generating multiple images of the object on an image sensor plane (SP) and a filter (F). The optical system is configured to form a real image of the filter on the array of image forming elements to filter the multiple images of the object, the filter being arranged with respect to the at least one objective lens so that a real image of the filter is formed on the array of image forming elements, and wherein the optical system is configured to be telecentric in the image plane of the filter.

  • Patent number: 10970978
    Abstract: A method for the broadcasting by a watch of an informative message relating to an evaluation of the quality of life of a wearer of the watch includes the following steps: recording, by the processing unit, of data describing at least one factual episode of at least one type of environmental event recorded during a given period; identifying at least one type of environmental event disturbing the quality of life of the wearer from processing of the descriptive data; estimating an evaluation index of the quality of life of the wearer according to an indicator of disturbance of the quality of life relating to each type of environmental event disturbing the quality of life identified, and design of the informative message including the estimated evaluation index in prediction of its broadcasting to the wearer.

  • Publication number: 20200129121
    Abstract: A method transmits by a watch an information message relating to an assessment of the sleep quality of a user of the watch. The method includes the following steps: recording by the processing unit of data describing at least one event-driven episode of at least one type of environmental event recorded during a sleep period of the user; identifying at least one type of environmental event that disturbs the user's sleep by processing the descriptive data; estimating a sleep quality assessment index for the user as a function of a sleep disturbance indicator for each identified type of sleep disturbing environmental event, and devising an information message including the estimated assessment index for the purpose of diffusion to the user.

  • Publication number: 20200096677
    Abstract: Optical system including at least one objective lens, an optical filter and an imaging lens or a first aperture array comprising a plurality of aperture elements. The at least one objective lens, the optical filter, and the imaging lens or first aperture array are arranged along an optical axis to form at least one projection of the optical filter on the imaging lens or on the first aperture array. The optical system further includes a filter selection means for selecting filtered electromagnetic radiation to be provided to the imaging lens or the first aperture array.
