  • Patent number: 10449394
    Abstract: A control system is described which provides a user interface that displays a clear graphical representation of relevant data for a particle radiation therapy system (such as a pencil-beam proton therapy system) for treating multiple beam fields as efficiently as possible. The user interface allows a user to visualize a treatment session, select one or multiple beam fields to include in one or more beam applications, and dissociate beam fields previously grouped if necessary. Further embodiments extend the ability to initiate the application of the generated proton therapy beam and the grouping of beam fields to be performed remotely from the treatment room itself, and even automatically, reducing the need for manual interventions to setup between fields.

  • Patent number: 7871552
    Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement and a method for providing a roof tile with at least one water stop. With the arrangement it becomes possible to press a water stop, comprised of a material differing from that of the roof tile, into a roof tile blank. After the water stop has been pressed in, it is partially disposed with its edge in the material of the roof tile blank in the proximity of the watercourse, of the central brim and of the lateral beading.

  • Patent number: 7154649
    Abstract: A device for deflecting optical beams is provided, the device having an array of mirror elements, and each mirror element being pivotable at any angle independently from another mirror element. This array may be manufactured micromechanically. The pivoting of the mirror element may be executed either capacitively or thermally. The array may be situated in a camera either as a deflecting mirror or as a lens. Scanning of a space element is also possible by using the array. Applications of the device include, e.g., use in a passive infrared detector, as well as use in a scattered-light smoke detector.
