  • Patent number: 11651505
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for acquiring images of objects. Light of different types (e.g., different polarization orientations) can be directed onto an object from different respective directions (e.g., from different sides of the object). A single image acquisition can be executed in order to acquire different sub-images corresponding to the different light types. An image of a surface of the object, including representation of surface features of the surface, can be generated based on the sub-images.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10429224
    Abstract: Provided is a Coriolis flow sensor assembly that includes a flow tube configured to provide a flow path through the flow tube. Further, the Coriolis flow sensor assembly includes a mechanical drive assembly configured to drive an oscillation of the flow tube while fluid is flowing via an oscillation surface. The Coriolis flow sensor assembly includes an interface fixedly coupled to the oscillation surface of the mechanical drive assembly and configured to receive the flow tube.

  • Patent number: 10422678
    Abstract: Provided is a Coriolis flow sensor assembly that includes a fluid flow assembly, including a flow tube, wherein the fluid flow assembly is configured to provide a flow path through the flow tube. The flow tube has at least one region of increased stiffness, which may be a result of a structural support component coupled to the flow tube. In another embodiment, the increased stiffness is caused by integral properties of the flow tube.
