Abstract: A rotary system and method for capturing images and displaying moving images of the surroundings by rotating a camera in high speed and capturing a plurality of still images per second. The still images are then processed in real time and displayed in one or more display units. Each display unit can display a moving images view of a region in the surroundings and/or still images. Any still or moving image can be zoomed in.

Abstract: The invention relates to a breathing-controlled inhalation device for dry powders, having an air guide unit consisting of an essentially cylindrical body, said air guide unit comprising a flow passage provided alternately with constrictions and in each instance following enlargements, said constrictions and enlargements passing continuously one into another, and the flow passage for the air flowing through the air guide unit being of three-dimensional meander-like conformation.

Abstract: An inhalation device for administering powdered forms of medication includes a housing with a rotatable dosing ball associated with an opening of a powdered reservoir located inside the housing. The dosing ball may be operated manually and includes a peripheral dosing cavity for receiving a dose of powder. The dosing ball is connected with a torsion spring and further includes a stop piece. In addition, the dosing ball is associated with a pivotable trip flap that has a movable limit stop. The dosing ball is preloaded by turning the dosing ball until the stop piece comes to rest on the movable limit stop of the trip flap. The dosing ball is then released as normal user breathing triggers a swaying of the trip flap.

Abstract: A breathing-controlled inhalation device for dry powder comprises a casing with a mouthpiece, a reservoir for dry powder in the casing, and an air guiding unit between a transfer area for the dry powder and the mouthpiece. A dosing conveyor accepts a predetermined amount of powder from the conveyor and upon manual depression of the conveyor, transfers the powder to the inlet of the air guiding unit. The air guiding unit has an air flow channel comprising a cylindrical component having semispherical indentations formed alternatively from opposite walls and extending into the channel to increase turbulence in the air flow and enhance distribution of the particles.
