Abstract: A measuring device for triangulation measurement comprises a light transmitter for emitting illuminating light; a transmitting optical system, which directs the illuminating light in a plurality of light strips to an object; a light receiver for generating a measurement image of the object by measuring of light thrown back from illuminated object areas; and an evaluation unit for determining form or position information of the object based on the measurement image. According to the invention, for the assignment of which area in the measurement image belongs to which light strip, the transmitting optical system is designed so that it directs the illuminating light in differently formed light strips to the object. In addition a corresponding method for triangulation measurement is described.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for checking print products of the same kind, more particularly printed sheets of paper of the same kind, which are transported by a conveying device. For this purpose, during a teach-in phase, test images are recorded at a plurality of points on the print product by means of a digital camera. The test images recorded, or parts thereof, are analyzed with respect to their characteristic information, and the test image having the most distinct characteristic information is selected as the reference image. For the purpose of checking print products of the same kind, the subsequent print products of the same kind are checked by recording at least one image at a position corresponding to the reference image and by comparing it with the image data of the reference image.

Abstract: In a method and a device for positioning a patient in a medical diagnosis device or therapy device, an image-recording device records an image of the patient, which is displayed on a screen, and an image processor aids the positioning of the patient. At least one body region is automatically detected by the image processor, and a scan area is automatically suggested on the screen that covers the body region.

Abstract: In a method and a device for positioning a patient in a medical diagnosis device or therapy device having a position calculating device and a patient bed adjustable in at least one plane, at least one optical target marking is brought into conformity with a body region of the patient. At least one image recording device is used for obtaining an exterior image of the patient that is displayed on a screen. The target marking that is spatially coupled with the coordinate system of the diagnosis device or therapy device, is superimposed on the image of the patient on the screen such that a predetermined body region of the patient can be brought into a desired spatial correlation with the target marking by remote control movement of the patient bed.
