  • HIGH PROTEIN POWDER MIX
    Publication number: 20240122198
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides for a high-protein, powdered food composition that can be reconstituted into a creamy, yogurt-like, or smoothie-style food having optional inclusions and that delivers the taste, organoleptic characteristics, mouthfeel, and nutritional benefits of conventional ready-to-eat cereal products. In one approach, the food composition or powdered food composition includes a synergistic combination of two or three distinct whey protein powders.

  • Real time optical information processing system
    Patent number: 6771422
    Abstract: The performance of all pattern recognition and tracking systems is limited by the depth of field of the optical imaging system used to acquire the images. Here an optical imaging system that produces images with a wide depth of field independent of f-number is provided, and includes a plurality of photo-detector elements, a way to measure the amount of defocus aberration for each photo-detector element, and a way to compensate for such aberration in order to produce an enhanced image with a large depth of field independent of f-number.

  • Active optical image enhancer for a microscope
    Patent number: 6215586
    Abstract: An active optical image enhancer for a microscope, and a method of enhancing an image for a microscope, are provided. The image enhancer has a tube for attachment to a microscope. Photo-detector elements are disposed on an end of the tube remote from an end thereof that is attachable to the microscope. Lens elements are disposed in or on the tube between the photo-detector elements and the end of the tube that is attachable to the microscope. The optical path length of the tube is adjustable via an appropriate device.

  • Spatially multiplexed optical signal processor
    Patent number: 5629802
    Abstract: A spatial light modulator has a plurality of pairs of input and reference images recorded upon a plurality of sub-areas thereof. Each sub-area is illuminated with an associated point source of light which is produced by illuminating a diffraction grating with coherent light. A Fourier transform lens produces a joint transform of each pair of input and reference images which can be detected by a CCD camera.

  • Spatial light modulator having amplitude coupled with binary phase mode
    Patent number: 5535029
    Abstract: An SLM rotates linearly polarized incident light, produced by a first polarizer, through a continuous range of angles up to a maximum angle, eg. seventy degrees. The second output polarizer is oriented orthogonally with respect to the angular thirty-five degrees bisector between the first polarization state at zero degrees rotation and the maximum possible angular rotation at seventy degrees and accordingly, a single SLM can be operated in an amplitude coupled binary phase mode.
