Abstract: A cylindrical or flat far ultraviolet-C (UVC) 222 nm excimer lamp and a method for its manufacture are provided. The cylindrical or flat far UVC 222 nm excimer lamp can be used for safely sterilizing microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, or viruses) from the human body or otherwise, which can be used periodically or continuously. It comprises an anode inside of the lamp, a first insulator on the top of the anode, a second insulator above the first insulator with a height or distance, a connecting cover connecting the sides of the insulator the first with a second insulator for closing the gap or chamber, a valve on one side of the connecting cover for gas injection into the gap or chamber, and a cathode on the outside of the second insulator which is the same length and/or width as the anode.

Abstract: A method includes sampling a first intensity of light with a first array of photo detectors of a digital camera. A second intensity of light is sampled with a second array of photo detectors of the digital camera. A first channel processor coupled to the first array of photo detectors generates a first image using first array data which is representative of the first intensity of light sampled by the first array of photo detectors. A second channel processor coupled to the second array of photo detectors generates a second image using second array data which is representative of the second intensity of light sampled by the second array of photo detectors. The first array of photo detectors, the second array of photo detectors, the first channel processor, and the second channel processor are integrated on or in a semiconductor substrate.

Abstract: The present invention provides a combined camera, camera stand, audio hub, and audio headset charger. The audio headset is wireless, with a wireless connection to the stand/hub. The stand/hub then connects over a bus to a personal computer. The camera can be both tilted and adjusted in height on the stand. Seamless switching from one audio path (e.g., external speakers and microphone in webcam) to another (e.g., wireless headset) occurs, providing the user with a regular telephone like experience. In addition, it is easily possible to mute audio as well as video for the entire system.
