Abstract: A method detects a proportion of a common mode magnetic field transmitted together with a signal magnetic field each emitted by one of at least two magnetic field sensors (S1; S2), wherein the magnetic field sensors (S1; S2) are connected in at least one electric circuit, and at least two differential drive clocks (A; B) reverse the current flowing in the electric circuit.

Abstract: A magnetic field device determines external magnetic influence. The device has a component with ferromagnetic material. The component has one or more magnetizable tracks arranged adjacent to each other having opposing directions of magnetization and arranged axially in relation to the component. A first magnetic field sensor is arranged radially in relation to the component and is assigned to the two tracks. A second magnetic field sensor is arranged radially in relation to the component and is assignable to two magnetisable tracks. The signal of each of the magnetic field sensors is set in relation to the signal of the at least one another magnetic field sensor. The signals produced by the magnetic field sensors form at least one individual signal channel. The first and second magnetic field sensors are combined with each other axially along the direction of magnetization of the assigned magnetic track to form the signal channel.

Abstract: A torque sensing device for measuring the torque applied to a rotatable shaft, and also measuring the magnetic field noise affecting the device. The device incorporates a switching function thereby enabling the device to operate in a common signal detection mode and a differential noise detection mode. The device is capable of determining the torque applied to the rotatable shaft based upon output signals obtained from magnetic field sensors operating in both the common signal detection mode and the differential noise detection mode. The device is capable of accurately measuring a torque induced magnetic field and is capable of canceling measurement error resulting from noise induced magnetic fields.

Abstract: Test equipment, for testing that an image processing apparatus is operating correctly, is coupled to the output port of the image processing apparatus. A predetermined group of signals corresponding to a portion of an image from the image processing apparatus is stored in a memory in the test equipment. The signals are then analysed either by an operator using a monitor or by electronic comparison of the signals with reference signals corresponding to the portion of the image, from a reference store.

Abstract: A digital image processing system comprises a processor at a central, first site; and digital image processing equipment such as an analyze scanner and an expose scanner at a second site remote from the first site. The processor and the digital image processing equipment are connectable and are adapted to pass signals therebetween corresponding to signals generated by the digital image processing equipment. These signals may be representative of operator commands or digital data generated at the second site which can be monitored at the first site.

Abstract: Apparatus for enhancing an image represented by picture signals corresponding to respective color components of successive elements of the image comprises signal generators for generating sharp and unsharp signals from the picture signals. Fringe signal generators derive a plurality of fringe signals by combining the sharp and unsharp signals in a predetermined manner; a correction circuit applies connected in parallel with the fringe signal generators modifying functions to the sharp or unsharp signals or other premodified picture signals to derive modified picture signals; and an adding circuit sums the fringe signals with the modified picture signals to derive a plurality of output signals.
