Abstract: The invention relates to a free space optical communications device (10) multiplexed in wavelengths of between 400 nm and 1600 nm, said device including demultiplexing means (11) that are designed so as to separately dissociate a number n1 of wavelengths from one another, the demultiplexing means (11) including one or more detectors (110) having a number n2 of optical filters (111) and active elements (112) which correspond to the number n1 of wavelengths, each active element (112) being arranged to selectively detect one wavelength from among said wavelengths (Id . . . Àn) via an optical filter (111) separate from the active element (112) which is included in a housing (113), the optical filter (111) being in contact with a protection means (114), inserted between the optical filter (111) and the active element (112), said protection means (114) closing said housing (113).

Abstract: The invention relates to an imaging device (E) comprising: at least one generator (1) of structured light; an emission first image guide (5, 5?) for uplinking the structured light from the generator (1) to an object to be observed; and a return second image guide (5?, 5) for downlinking the light reflected by said object to be observed to a system (2) for capturing said reflected light. Each of the two image guides (5, 5?) is able to uplink the structured light and downlink the reflected light, and the imaging device comprises an optical switch (3) configurable into three different operating modes.

Abstract: A method of modifying a steam turbine to change from a first maximum thermal power of the steam generator to a second maximum thermal power of the steam generator. The method can include replacing, in the high-pressure module, at least one set of fixed blades sized for the first maximum thermal power by at least one set of fixed blades sized for the second maximum thermal power. The at least one set of moving blades are sized to operate at the first and second maximum thermal powers. The rotor and the at least one set of moving blades of the high-pressure module remain unchanged on changing from the first maximum thermal power to the second maximum thermal power.

Abstract: The invention concerns a device for observation inside a body, such as the body of a living being, comprising means for illuminating (110, 115, 200, 300, 400) the body inside, means for displaying an image (600, 700, 800), and a flexible conduit (300) for travelling through an inside part of the body and conveying an image from inside the body to the displaying means (600, 700, 800), the illuminating means (110, 115, 200, 300, 400) being arranged to automatically scan a zone of the body forming the displayed image.

Abstract: An optical system for presenting an image to a user. The system includes an image source and an optical channel transmitting the image to the user's eye. It also includes an illumination of the ocular fundus and an imaging of the illuminated ocular fundus, both using part of the optical channel. The system enables an analysis of the eye retina observing an image. It also enables depending on the eye position, an adaptation of the visual image presented. If the system is partially mounted in a headset, it enables the presentation of the image to a mobile user.
