  • Publication number: 20150378451
    Abstract: A portable sheath is introduced. The portable sheath includes a sheath body and a cord. The sheath body includes an insertion portion. The cord is connected to the sheath body and adapted to fasten the sheath body to a data-related device. A penlike device can be inserted into the insertion portion and thus attached to the data-related device. Hence, users can carry the data-related device together with the penlike device, thereby minimizing the chance that the penlike device gets lost.

  • Patent number: 9182315
    Abstract: Lens module testing device for testing a lens module includes a testing platform, a light source, a testing board, a sensing element, a processor, a driving element, and a position feedback unit. The light source, the testing board, and the sensing element are arranged in order on the testing platform along an optical axis of the lens module. The lens module is positioned between the testing board and the sensing element. The light source emits testing light to the testing board, and the sensing element senses an image of the testing board and sends the image to the processor. The processor determines whether the testing board is in a focal plane of the lens module, controls the driving element to adjust a position of the testing board relative to the lens module, and obtains position information from the position feedback unit to generate a focal length of the lens module.

  • Publication number: 20150280830
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a device and a method for conversion from optical double-sideband modulation signals to optical single-sideband modulation signals. Period-one nonlinear dynamics of semiconductor lasers is utilized to achieve such optical signal conversion. Only a typical semiconductor laser is required as the key conversion unit. The microwave and data quality are maintained or even improved after conversion, increasing detection sensitivity, transmission distance, and link gain of the communication networks. The device is relatively less sensitive to ambient variations, can be self-adapted to changes in operating conditions, and can be applied for a broad range of operating microwave frequency up to at least 80 GHz and a high data rate up to at least 2.5 Gbits/s. The device can therefore be dynamically reconfigured for different communication networks adopting different operating microwave frequencies and different data rates.
