  • Patent number: 11433494
    Abstract: A jig for mounting a component on a structure is disclosed. The jig includes a frame having a base defining an elongated channel and adapted to be disposed substantially parallel to a surface. The jig also includes a support assembly for supporting the component to facilitate the mounting of the component on the structure. The support assembly extends vertically through the elongated channel and adapted to slide relative to the base along a length of the elongated channel.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20050043970
    Abstract: A computerized electronic dental record management system that allows dentists to quickly and easily view and analyze patient's dental conditions and clearly explain and show their diagnosis to the patients. The dentist uses a flexible thin camera to take photographs or images of the teeth. These images are stored in a patient's electronic dental record. At any time, the dentist can use these images to analyze or diagnose the patient's condition and formulate a treatment plan. The dentist can also use these images to clearly show and explain the patient's condition and proposed treatment plan to the patient. Additionally, using a hand-held monitor, the patient can also view the images in real time as the dentist is inspecting the patient's teeth.

  • Publication number: 20030202098
    Abstract: The invention provides an electric multi-layered infrared filtered anti theft device. The camera is responsive to visible and near-infrared spectrum by using a double-layered Infrared Filter. The first layer is a near-infrared filter for a monitoring device. The filter can be switched to in front of or behind the camera lens, in order to block visible light and allow near-infrared light to pass through, otherwise, both lights could come through. As for the second layer, its method uses a filter partition that is penetrate-able by infrared. When there is more visible light than near-infrared light, the camera is only responsive to visible light; when there is more near-infrared than visible light, the camera is only responsive to near-infrared. Having the advantages mentioned above, this device can take different pictures according to multiple different environments, in order to achieve secret and disguised monitoring.

  • Patent number: 6604868
    Abstract: A microprocessor controlled servo device for carrying and driving a camera, comprises a microprocessor chip processing control circuit, an I/O port, and a servo set. A user operates a keyboard to input a control signal input command and a control signal input termination command. The microprocessor reads the related program and data stored in a memory then inputs a corresponding control pulse signal to a servo set after control processing, and drives a servo to rotate after comparison and amplification. The servo set comprises two driving circuit servos that control and move a camera horizontally and vertically. The servos carry and move the camera in order to perform functions of camera monitoring, such as location memorizing of a plurality of preset points, cruise scanning, alarm output, and automatic tracking. The user can see whether the input command is correct and to monitor system execution by means of an LCD.

  • Publication number: 20020181955
    Abstract: A microprocessor-controlled servo device carrying and driving camera, mainly comprises a microprocessor-chip-processed control circuit, an I/O port a servo set. A user operate a keyboard to input a control signal input command and control signal input termination command, microprocessor will read the relating program and data stored in a memory, then inputs a corresponding control pulse signal to a sever set after control process, and drives a servo to rotate after comparison, magnification and operation in the servo set. The servo set comprises two driving circuit two servos that carry and move a camera horizontally and vertically. Under the control of the present invention, the servos that carry and move the camera can do many functions of camera monitoring, such as the locating memorizing of a plurality of preset points, cruise scanning, alarm outputting and automatic tracking.
