Abstract: A removable camera lens attachment has at least two optical elements, wherein the at least two optical elements are aligned to share an optical axis with a prime lens of the camera. The lens attachment has at least two curved surfaces. The at least two optical elements have a first surface that is conditioned to reflect a first portion of the incident light away from the image plane as reflected stray light and a second surface that is conditioned to reflect a second portion of the reflected stray light back toward the image plane to form a ghost image on an image plane of the prime lens. The lens attachment alters the effective focal length of the prime lens by no more than 15%.

Abstract: Single or multiple jointed bit (1) with at least two mouthpieces (10), characterized by the fact that at least one mouthpiece (10) comprises at least one channel (100) which extends longitudinally with or without slope through this mouthpiece from one end to the other end, to enable the sending of a viscous and/or liquid substance (72) directly into the middle of the mouth of an animal (2) without changing the feeling in the animal's mouth or on its tongue (2).

Abstract: A series of circular loops, where each loop is capable of receiving a card; a wire between the circular loops where the wire coils in order to create each circular loop to create the card display; and a backside, where the backside support the card display. In the preferred embodiment, each circular loop is configured to receive a card. The backside may be split into two sides joined by a hinge.

Abstract: An apparatus for multimodal imaging of an object includes a support stage for receiving an object to be imaged; an object supported on the stage, a light source for producing a beam to illuminate the object; a filter positioned to receive and pass the beam toward the object; and a lens and camera system for capturing an image of the object. The apparatus may include a tiltable filter for filtering light from the source.

Abstract: An apparatus for multimodal imaging of an object includes a support stage for receiving an object to be imaged; an object supported on the stage, the object having been treated with a biocompatible imaging probe comprising nanoparticles carrying one or more targeting moieties and one or more diagnostic components for enabling capture of images of the object; a light source for producing a beam to illuminate the object; a filter positioned to receive and pass the beam toward the object; and a lens and camera system for capturing an image of the object. The apparatus may include a tiltable filter for filtering light from the source.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus (40) has an optical sensor (14) with sensing elements (18). Each sensing element (18) has an array of sensing components (28). Each sensing component (28) provides a signal corresponding to a pixel for forming an image as an array of pixels. A lens array (76) has a number of lens elements (66). Each lens element (66) directs light to a corresponding sensing element (18) in the optical sensor (14). A prism array (60) has a number of prism elements (62), each prism element (62) directing incident light from the image field toward a corresponding lens element (66) in the lens array (76).

Abstract: In a parallax correction method and system, corresponding regions of first and second digital images of the same subject are upsampled to provide a pair of upsampled regions. The corresponding regions have parallax. The upsampled regions are statistically compared at a plurality of relative subpixel offsets to provide a corresponding plurality of similarity values. The similarity values define a peak similarity value and a corresponding peak subpixel offset among the plurality of relative subpixel offsets. The second digital image is shifted relative to the first digital image by the peak subpixel offset.
