Patents Assigned to INSTITUT NATIONAL DES SCIENCES APPLIQUEES DE RENNES (INSA DE RENNES)
  • Patent number: 11637614
    Abstract: Some embodiments are directed to a method of transmission from at least one transmit antenna to all or some of n reception antennas including at least one transmission step suitable for transmitting a first binary information item by using the absence of focusing from the transmit antenna to any one of the n reception antennas, during a predetermined integer number k of symbol times and/or a modulation of the power transmitted by at least one transmit antenna, participating in a coding of a second binary information item. Some other embodiments are directed to a receiver-decoder suitable for reception according to the method.

  • Patent number: 10241517
    Abstract: Some embodiments are directed to a method for correcting a movement trajectory in a movement assistance device of a person equipped with at least one sensor device and a control unit, the method including the steps of measuring a distance between said at least one sensor and an obstacle, a separation of a coordinate system representing pairs of values of translational speeds and rotational speeds into two half-planes, by at least one separating limit of the coordinate system, into a travel exclusion zone and a permissible travel space, a definition of a second rotational speed and a second translational speed by the projection of a command point into the delimited permissible space.

  • Patent number: 9464344
    Abstract: According to a thermomechanical treatment process for a titanium alloy including between 23 and 27% niobium in atomic proportion, between 0 and 10% zirconium, and between 0 and 1% oxygen, nitrogen and/or silicon, the following steps are performed: a) an increase of a sample of the alloy to a temperature higher than 900° C., b) a fast quench, c) a severe cold strain, d) an ageing treatment at a temperature included between 200 and 600° C., the time of the ageing treatment being included between 10 seconds and 10 minutes. Alloy obtained by this process and prostheses made from such an alloy.
