Abstract: A camera arrangement for image detection includes radiation-sensitive sensor elements arranged to record a common object plane in offset fields of view, a balancer and a shading corrector. The balancer is implemented, for balancing the sensor elements, to post-process for each sensor element a sensor signal of the respective sensor signal n by means of balancing information determined in balancing and stored, so that a variation of the intensity I of incoming radiation in the respective field of view leads to a change of the respective post-processed sensor signal according to a desired mapping function Fn(anI), the mapping functions Fn( ) of all factory-balanced sensor elements being identical, and an being a sensor-individual factor. The shading corrector is implemented on the basis of a recording generated by means of the camera arrangement with the sensor elements, to change the sensor element-individual factors an so that intensity differences of the recording are balanced across the common object plane.

Abstract: An apparatus provides an image on the basis of a plurality of input images. The apparatus includes a first stage having at least a first and a second combiner, each of the combiners including a first storer for storing image data of the input images, a first processor for processing the image data of the input images into an intermediate image, and a second storer for storing image data of the intermediate image. The apparatus further includes a second stage having at least one further combiner, the further combiner including a third storer for storing image data of those intermediate images which are stored in the second storer of the first stage, a second processor for processing the image data from the third storer, so as to combine the image data of the intermediate images into the image, and a fourth storer for storing image data of the image.

Abstract: In order to detect an image generated by an image source, a mirror arrangement is arranged between the image source and a detector. The mirror arrangement includes two spaced-apart deflection mirrors, which are parallel to each other or form an acute angle of less than 90° between them. In particular when the image source is a scintillator layer, shielding of X-rays from the detector with simultaneous compact dimensioning of the apparatus is achieved in this manner.

Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus and a method for reducing transition artifacts in an overall image composed of sub-images whose image areas have overlap areas. The apparatus includes a storer for storing image data of the pixels of the sub-images, and a generator for generating the overall image, on the basis of the image data of the sub-images by superposition of the image data of the pixels in the overlap area in accordance with a weighting, the weighting being configured such that any influence of a pixel of a sub-image which would cause an artifact in the overall image is reduced in the overall image.

Abstract: A motion controller for a motor-driven transportation truck or trolley with a steering pole that can be swivelled about a horizontal axis attached to a steering shaft or a steering frame and is provided with means for setting the direction of motion and the speed, characterized in that the steering pole is equipped with a sensor means providing an output signal that depends not only on the magnitude of the force applied to the steering pole, but also on whether this force is a push or a pull, and that the system also comprises a feed back controller unit that sets and/or regulates the speed and the direction of rotation of the driving motor according to this output signal.

Abstract: A follower industrial truck including a drive motor, a handle lever having a first end which is linked to a steering shaft of the industrial truck to pivot about a horizontal axis, a handle lever head which is movably mounted with respect to the handle lever in a pull and push manner, a spring arrangement between the handle lever and the head, which biases the head in opposite directions towards a neutral position produces a path signal (Sist), the magnitude of the path signal (Sist) being approximately proportional to the extent of the deflection, a first controller which produces a first nomimal value (Isoll) for the current of the drive motor, and a further controller adapted to receive a comparison current value which is achieved by the comparison of the actual current value (Iist) of the drive motor and of the first nomimal value (Isoll) from the first controller in order to produce a setting current value for the drive motor.
