Abstract: The present invention discloses a functional powder delivery device for precise locating and quantifying when delivering the functional powder to a site in need in a patient. Meanwhile, the device avoids negative pressure effect in the output catheter when airflow is switched, and thus prevents pollution or jam in the output catheter due to splash or back flow of body fluid. The device ensures tube clearance of the output catheter by maintaining continuous airflow, and a special design of airflow switch allows switching to airflow of large volume to carry the powder when required. Through continuous positive airflow in the tube system, the functional powder can be delivered to the site in need by a continuous powder flow, which overcomes drawbacks of the delivery devices in prior arts. In addition, the design of foot pedal can help endoscopist for a solo operation. The serial connecting parts can adapt for various size of bottles of various types of functional powder.

Abstract: A foot scanning system is provided. The foot shape scanning system includes a reference device, at least one depth camera and a processing device. The reference device is disposed beside a measurement area. Each depth camera is configured to capture the measurement area to obtain an image. The processing device is coupled with the depth camera. The processing device determines a foot object in the image based on the reference device, and analyzes the foot object to calculate foot shape parameters of the foot object. Accordingly, a measurement device capable of conveniently and accurately measuring foot shape parameters is provided.

Abstract: An iris image definition estimation system using the astigmatism of the corneal reflection of a non-coaxial light source to assess both the resolution of the iris patterns and the direction of focus adjustment. The corneal reflection results in two virtual images on the meridional and the sagittal planes. These virtual images are formed behind the cornea and close to the iris. Yet, both are projected onto the same location and result in a composite glint area. In addition, the shape of the glint area of a non-coaxial light source varies with different camera focus settings. Furthermore, due to the high intensity of the glint area, the shape can be easily observed, and the size and the shape of the glint area can be used to determine the resolution of the iris image and the direction of focus adjustment, respectively.
