Abstract: Dashboard evaluation includes receiving a dashboard code defining a dashboard that includes visualizations in a layout, rendering, in a graphical user interface (GUI) of a dashboard editing tool, the dashboard based on the dashboard code, and extracting, using the dashboard code, a data attribute of a data object represented by a visualization of the multiple visualizations. Dashboard evaluation further includes evaluating, by the dashboard editing tool, the visualization based on the data attribute to obtain a score, presenting, in the GUI of the dashboard editing tool, a recommendation based on the score failing to satisfy a first threshold, receiving, through the GUI of the dashboard editing tool and after presenting the recommendation, an edit to the dashboard code that adjusts the visualization, and storing, by the dashboard editing tool, the edit to the dashboard code.

Abstract: An angle-sensitive pixel (ASP) device that uses the Talbot effect to detect the local intensity and incident angle of light includes a phase grating disposed above a photodiode assembly or a phase grating disposed above an analyzer grating that is disposed above a photodiode assembly. When illuminated by a plane wave, the upper grating generates a self-image at a selected Talbot depth. Several such structures, tuned to different incident angles, are sufficient to extract local incident angle and intensity. Arrays of such structures are sufficient to localize light sources in three dimensions without any additional optics.

Abstract: An image processing system includes at least two, complementary, angle sensitive pixel (ASP) structures, having a spatial frequency domain ASP output including a background output and a plurality of ASP response outputs, in response to an optical input; an ASP response output subtractor component, which functions to suppress the background output and perform a subtraction of at least two of the ASP response outputs; and a processing component that can process the subtracted spatial frequency domain ASP response outputs. An optical domain image processing method includes the steps of providing at least two, complementary, angle sensitive pixel (ASP) structures; obtaining a spatial frequency domain ASP output including a plurality of complementary ASP response outputs, in response to an optical input; performing a wavelet-like transform of the ASP response outputs in the optical domain prior to performing any operation in a digital domain; and obtaining a desired output of the optical input.

Abstract: A stabilized helium-neon laser emits radiation in the ranges of ultra-violet, infra-red and visible other than red in at least two modes. A stabilizing system consists of an alignment heater (19) which bends the laser tubes toward optimum alignment, a coil heater (20) which cyclically varies the tube length and permanent magnets (24,25) which reduce instability of mode polarizations and to optimize relative intensities of the modes. The transmitted output is stabilized in frequency by control of the laser tube length, with the stabilization signal derived from the steady or varying intensity of intensities of one or both of two orthogonally polarized optical outputs. There are many potential uses for non-red helium-neon lasers in applications where non-red light is required, for example, in multi-wavelength interferometry.
