  • Publication number: 20150217373
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing components using a powder that has been melt-atomised in an inert gas atmosphere from an aluminium or Al alloy with integrated hard materials, in particular from MMCs (metal matrix composites), reinforcing particles being added to the molten and atomised metal, in particular aluminium or an aluminium alloy, during or consecutive to the spraying process, and subsequently the powder particles being compressed by way of an SPS method in order to produce a component or a semi-finished product.

  • Patent number: 7787016
    Abstract: An imaging device (2) for the stabilized imaging of an object onto a detector (14) with a first optical unit (4) and a second optical unit (6) and an optical element that is arranged between the optical units (4, 6) and can be moved for the purpose of stabilizing the imaging on the detector (14). For image stabilization in order to compensate for an undesirable wobbling movement of the imaging over the detector (14), the optical element is constituted of a micro-optical lens array (10).

  • Publication number: 20080315072
    Abstract: An apparatus (2) and a method for producing a representation of an object scene, including a detector arrangement (12) with a plurality of detector units (20, 22) and an optical unit (4, 8) for producing the image of the object scene on the detector arrangement (12). To produce a high information content from representations of the object scene the apparatus (2) includes a filter unit (16, 26, 32, 72) arranged in an imaging beam path, with a first radiation filter raster with a first filter property and at least one second radiation filter raster with a second filter property different from the first filter property, wherein the radiation filter rasters penetrate each other, and a motion unit (100) for stepwise movement of an image of the radiation filter rasters relative to the detector arrangement (12).

  • Patent number: 7400347
    Abstract: A camera system (2, 40, 50) including a sensor (12, 58) and a first optical system which includes a convex mirror (4, 42) and through which the image of a solid angle region (14) is producible on the sensor (12, 58) by way of a first beam path (18). In order, in addition to producing an image of a large solid angle region (14), to permit scanning or detailed representation of a smaller partial region (20, 66, 82) of the solid angle region (14), the camera system (2, 40, 50) includes a second optical system through which a partial region (20, 66, 82) of the solid angle region (14) is detectable by way of a second beam path (34, 60) on a detail sensor (68), wherein the detail region (20, 66, 82) is selectable by an optical element (28) which is movable relative to the sensors (12, 58, 68).

  • Patent number: 7227705
    Abstract: A wide-angle optical system (2, 40) having an objective (4, 42) and a mirror system, including a curved mirror (6, 46) for projecting a wide-angle image through the objective (4, 42) onto a detector (10, 44). At least one mirror (8, 46) of the mirror system is arranged movably relative to the objective (4, 42). It is possible to achieve a zoom function, a large elevation range and a selection of an enlarged section from the wide-angle image.

  • Patent number: 7214916
    Abstract: An optical arrangement (2) for a homing head (16), for the purpose of imaging an object scene onto a detector unit (4), including a control unit (24), a first optical unit (10) having two at least partially transparent optical elements, in particular prisms (42, 44), a second optical unit (14) and a beam deflecting unit (18), the first optical unit (10) directing radiation from at least two sections of the object scene onto the beam deflecting unit (18) in a superimposed fashion, and the beam deflecting unit (18) selecting one of the sections and, in conjunction with the second optical unit (14), imaging the selected section on the detector unit (4).

  • Patent number: 6346697
    Abstract: In an image resolving detector arrangement, an image of an object scene is generated by an imaging optical system. Radiation from a respective one of several adjacent image elements of an image area associated with the detector element is directed consecutively onto each of the detector elements by an image element selection device. Herein the image element selection device is formed by a micro-light stop raster, which is arranged in an image plane and moveable step by step in this image plane, and which, in each position, allows only radiation from a part of an image area associated to a detector element to pass onto the detector element. Thereby, the resolution of the image resolving detector arrangement is improved.
