Abstract: An automated three dimensional mapping method estimating three dimensional models taking advantage of a plurality of images. Positions and attitudes for at least one camera are recorded when images are taken. The at least one camera is geometrically calibrated to indicate the direction of each pixel of an image. A stereo disparity is calculated for a plurality of image pairs covering a same scene position setting a disparity and a certainty measure estimate for each stereo disparity. The different stereo disparity estimates are weighted together to form a 3D model. The stereo disparity estimates are reweighted automatically and adaptively based on the estimated 3D model.

Abstract: An air/fuel ratio controller (6) and a method that uses an upstream control loop to maintain a given optimum air/fuel ratio (?opt), whereas the optimum air/fuel ratio (?opt) is determined in the controller (6) in an downstream control loop by adding incremental offset (??) to the air/fuel ratio set-point (?SP) of an upstream control loop while monitoring a NOx sensor (10) output. The air/fuel ratio set-points (?SP) at two turning points (SP1, SP2) in the NOx sensor (10) output are used to calculate a new optimum air/fuel ratio set-point (?opt) as mean value of the air/fuel ratio set-points (?SP1, ?SP2) at the turning points (SP1, SP2).

Abstract: A three dimensional model method based on combination of ground based images and images taken from above. An existing 3D model based on images taken from above is matched with images taken from ground level. All images including information about position and attitudes of the camera when the images from ground level and the images taken from above were taken and direction of each pixel. The method offers an automatically carried out imaging solving or at least mitigating occlusion problems.

Abstract: Disclosed is a bovine milk derived phosphatidylserine source of natural composition having excellent dispersibility and organoleptic as well as physical stability. The source is useful in neutraceutical in powder, liquid or dispersion form. The source can be prepared from serum from butter oil production or from the retentate from microfiltration of whey for defatting purposes.

Abstract: A method of repairing a vehicle chassis and/or vehicle bodywork which requires the replacement of a damaged vehicle part with a new vehicle part. The vehicle is clamped to a working bench and the new vehicle part (4), which is to be welded in position for instance, is held firmly in a correct position in relation to the vehicle (1) with the aid of bench-coacting holding devices (5, 18). The bench-coacting holding devices (5, 18) include positionally adjustable means (10, 17) which are intended to coact with specific points of the new vehicle part, the positions of these points in space relative to the vehicle being known. In this regard, the positions in space of the positionally adjustable means are set with the aid of separate measuring equipment. The invention also relates to an arrangement for use when carrying out the method.

Abstract: An ink supply to a movable printing head in which the liquid reservoir follows the printing head in its movement along a recording medium and communicates with the liquid pumping chambers by means of at least one channel located in the printing head. In one embodiment, a filter is located in the flow path of the liquid reservoir to the pump chambers while in another embodiment the filter is disposed within the reservoir.

Abstract: A printing head for an ink jet printer in which a multiplicity of channels are formed, preferably in one plate of the head. Each of the channels communicates with a capillary tube that opens into a boundary surface of the plate. The arrangement of the channels is such that the head can be of a smaller size than other constructions, and the openings of the capillary tubes can be located closer to one another.

Abstract: An ink reservoir and supply arrangement associated with a printing head of an ink jet printer having means for filling the supply device automatically. The device is arranged to follow the movements of the printing head along an adjacent recording medium. A liquid filling member is adapted to transfer the liquid from the storing device to the supply device.

Abstract: A printing head for an ink jet printer in which a liquid reservoir is operatively associated therewith. The liquid reservoir is provided with an air inlet opening having a filter which permits the passage of air but prevents liquid flow thereby preventing the leakage of liquid out of the reservoir upon the agitation of the liquid within the reservoir.

Abstract: A packaging tray provided with a bottom, side walls, and an outwardly directed flange surrounding the periphery of the side walls of the tray, consists of outer and inner layers of a moldable and stretchable synthetic plastic material, and intermediate layers of liquid-absorbing material with no or but insignificant stretchability. At the molding of the tray, the side walls thereof are formed by stretching of the plastic material and in a softening operation, an adhesive bond is realized between the outer and inner layers in the stretched tray side walls which thus present an at least partially ruptured intermediate layer.
