Abstract: The invention relates to a camera (130) for detecting objects (192), the camera (130) comprising (a) an illumination device (240) for illuminating an object (192) which is located in an object plane (230a) of the camera (130); and (b) a camera sensor (285) for capturing an image of the object (192) illuminated by the illumination device (240). The illumination device (240) has (a1) a first illumination structure (350) with a plurality of first light sources (351) for illuminating the object (192) with a first illumination light (352) at a first illumination angle; (a2) a second illumination structure (360) having a plurality of second light sources (361) for illuminating the object (192) with a second illumination light (362) at a second illumination angle that is different from the first illumination angle; and (a3) an optical lens array (354) with a plurality of individual lenses (355) for collimating the first illumination light (352) and for collimating the second illumination light (362).

Abstract: The invention relates to a building or security closure device (2), more particularly door (2), included a wing (3) powered by a motor assembly (23) and a monitoring or controller means (15) for controlling or monitoring travel of the door leaf (3), the monitoring or controller means (15) comprising a first, stationary electrotechnical unit (12, 13) and a second movable electrotechnical unit (5-10, 16) traveling with the wing (3) for communicating with the stationary unit (12, 13).

Abstract: Disclosed is a door (2) comprising a door leaf (1) and a door operator (10) for motorized operation of the door leaf (1) as well as an ID controlling and actuating means (12, 52) for mounting outside from the zone to be closed off, by means of which following or during implementation of an ID check an authorized user can enable the door operator (10) for the purpose of opening the door (2). Preferably to save, in an easy way time, material and money it is proposed in accordance with the invention to mount the ID controlling and actuating means (12, 52) on or in the door leaf (1) for movement therewith. In addition, the invention relates to a method of fabricating, furnishing and/or fitting such a door (2).

Abstract: A method for automatically setting illumination intensity of light sources used within either positional recognition devices or quality control devices that, in turn, are used in devices that automatically equip components on a printed circuit board or ceramic substrates. The individual light sources are successively varied and an image of a component to be placed on a printed circuit board or substrate is registered by a camera. The resulting picture elements are registered as grayscale values and stored in an image evaluation unit. The grayscale values are either represented as useful structures of the component or unwanted structures of the component dependent on the illumination intensity of the individual light sources. The stored grayscale values for all of the light sources are summed according to respective useful and unwanted structures of the component and then compared to one another.
