Abstract: In a video conference system, participants are provided with a greater sense of presence. A pair of monitors are positioned at each location and provide a presence view image and a shared space image of the other location. With this system, participants can overlap their finger pointing at a shared image while maintaining eye-to-eye contact.

Abstract: A portable, self-contained, electronic radioscopic imaging system uses a pulsed X-ray source, a remote X-ray sensor, and a self-contained, display and controller unit to produce, store, and/or display digital radioscopic images of an object under investigation. The pulsed X-ray source transmits a burst of narrow pulses of X-rays at the object being investigated at a low repetition rate. The X-ray sensor utilizes an X-ray scintillating screen in combination with either an integrating CCD camera, or an active matrix of thin film transistors and sample-and-hold photodiodes, to produce an integrated signal representative of the accumulated number of flashes of radiation (X-ray pulses that pass through the object) that are sensed in a given pixel area of the scintillating screen.
