  • COMPACT HOLOGRAHIC HUMAN-MACHINE INTERFACE
    Publication number: 20110249309
    Abstract: A method of recording an object image of a first hologram as a second hologram is provided. A first hologram is recorded at a first angle of reconstruction and a holographic recording medium is provided. An object beam is directed through the first hologram at the first angle of reconstruction to reconstruct the object image on the recording medium. The recording medium is struck with a reference beam at a second angle of reconstruction to form a wave interference pattern with the object beam. The second angle of reconstruction is between 45 and 90 degrees. The wave interference pattern is recorded. A switch is provided that includes a hologram that has an angle of reconstruction between 45 and 90 degrees. A reproducing light source is positioned to direct light through the hologram at the angle of reconstruction to form a holographic image at a predetermined distance from the hologram. The switch includes a detector that detects the presence of an object proximate to the holographic image.

  • Narrow angle hologram device and method of manufacturing same
    Publication number: 20070253041
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a master for producing a hologram device is provided. A first master is produced with a compensating angle. The second master is produced from the first master with an index matching material to reduce the interference pattern caused by internal reflections within the holographic plate of the master. The hologram device has a relatively narrow angle of reconstruction to provide visibility from a nearly perpendicular light source such as the headlight of an on-coming vehicle.

  • Hair treatment and conditioning agents
    Patent number: 5071441
    Abstract: Mercaptyl-containing quaternary nitrogen compounds, which may contain additional functional moieties such as dye, polysiloxane, or polyoxyalkylenes groups, are useful in the treatment of hair, used in hair-treating compositions, to impart properties such as conditioning, shape, color, sheen, and manageability.
