Abstract: The invention relates to an ultrasonic imaging system for diagnostic use or non-destructive testing. The system comprises a first array of ultrasonic transducers coupled to the object space wherein objects under examination are located or distributed; a second array of ultrasonic transducers coupled to a reconstitution space wherein the acoustic images of the objects are to be replicated; and time inversion means. The time inversion means has a set of waveform memories which first captures the ultrasonic signals from said objects, typically echos produced in response to suitable excitation, via said first array of ultrasonic transducers with suitable amplification and preconditioning as necessary. Then readouts of these signals are provided inversely in time which drive the second array of ultrasonic transducers with said time inverted signals to reproject inversely propagating ultrasonic wavetrains forming replicated acoustic images of the objects.

Abstract: An interactive graphic system is provided which introduces drawing data step by step in the form of interaction to describe figures, characters, numerical figures or the like with the aid of a microcomputer. The interactive graphic system consists of a keyboard for introducing drawing data, a plotter for recording the figures, a microcomputer, and a memory unit that are constructed as a unitary structure which features small size, reduced cost and enhanced operational performance. Further, the interactive graphic system is so constructed that application software packages can be freely exchanged to diversify the functions.

Abstract: Herein disclosed is a mechanical vibrating element which can be used as a resonator made operative to resonate in a predetermined frequency, a filter having a frequency selecting property or an optical deflector adapted to be mechanically dislocated in accordance with an input signal for deflecting an optical beam. The mechanical vibrating element according to the present invention is characterized in that a single insulating substrate constructs a frame and a moving portion supported by the frame, in that the moving portion is formed with a conductive pattern or a coil, and in that an electric current is fed to the conductor or the coil, while appling a magnetic field in the same direction as the plane direction of the insulating substrate, so that the moving portions may be mechanically vibrated.
