  • Patent number: 11825137
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a system for transmitting alternative image content of a physical display to different viewers, comprising: generating at least two different sets of image data, each set of image data comprising a sequence of individual images; displaying the images of said at least two sets of image data in a time-sliced multiplexed manner at a high frame rate on said physical display; generating at least one video stream of a scene which includes said physical display, said video stream consisting of video frames captured synchronously with the displaying of the images of one of said at least two sets of image data on said physical display, said captured video frames are transmitted to at least one video output at a standard frame rate, said video output being a physical video output of an intermediate processing unit or the physical video output of at least one camera unit; and transmitting said video stream to a sub-set of said viewers.

  • Patent number: 9041624
    Abstract: A method and device for three-dimensionally depicting images, in which a sequence of two-dimensional individual images are produced by means of a two-dimensional array, which consists of individually controllable light-emitting diodes (LED's) and which focuses light emitted by the LED's of the array onto a projection device. The light striking the projection device is focused onto a diffusing screen. While coupled to one another, the projection device and the diffusing screen are moved in a periodically reversing manner in a direction that is essentially perpendicular to the screen plane, and the sequence of two-dimensional individual images are synchronized with the spatial position of the diffusing screen.

  • Patent number: 6927402
    Abstract: Light sources are provided for generating rays of light of different excitation wavelengths, which can be directed toward the sample support by excitation optics. The fluorescent light emitted each time by the sample support can be directed toward a receiver, which generates corresponding fluorescence signals. A mirror assembly with reflective areas and transparent areas is connected between the different light sources and the sample support. The mirror assembly can be displaced in such a manner that the ray of light of a light source passes through a transparent area and reaches the sample support.

  • Patent number: 6656742
    Abstract: Fluorescing reference material is used for calibration purposes for improving the measurement accuracy of sensors, especially biosensors, which use fluorescence radiation for determination of signals, the sensors each comprising a waveguide having at least one wave propagation surface as assay, a reactant being supported on the surface, the reactant comprising a species of molecule and being bound to an analytical material within a test medium, the waveguide transmitting an output emission radiation signal when it receives a radiation access signal.

  • Publication number: 20030168610
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device for detecting different fluorescence signals of a sample support illuminated with different excitation wavelengths. Said sample support comprises a number of samples that can be exited by different light wave-lengths for emitting differing fluorescent light. To this end, light sources (1, 3) are provided for generating rays of light or different excitation wavelengths, which can be directed toward the sample support (9) by excitation optics (5, 11). The fluorescent light (23, 45) emitted each time by the sample support (9) can be directed toward a receiver (25), which generates corresponding fluorescence signals. A mirror assembly (19) with reflective areas (19′) and transparent areas (19″) is connected between the different light sources (1, 3) and the sample support (9).
