Publication number: 20230327390Abstract: A composite all optical-fibre based tapered photonic waveguide (110) including a single or multiple secondary waveguides (120) within or around a primary waveguide (118) is described. The composite optical fibre may also be termed a beam tailoring optical fibre (BT Fibre) (110). In use, at thelarger secondary end (114) both the primary waveguide (118) and the secondary waveguide/s (120) may guide modes at a particular wavelength. However, at the same wavelength, adiabatically tapering down the waveguides (118, 120) reduces the dimensions of the secondary waveguide/s (120) such that all the secondary waveguide/s (120) become effectively non-guiding at the smaller primary end (112), whilst the primary waveguide (118) still guides. In other words, the composite optical fibre is a spatially modulating optical fibre (110).Type: ApplicationFiled: October 28, 2021Publication date: October 12, 2023Inventors: Deepak JAIN, Simon FLEMING

Patent number: 8344335Abstract: A dosimeter for radiation fields is described. The dosimeter includes a scintillator a light pipe having a first end in optical communication with the scintillator and a light detector. The light pipe may have a hollow core with a light reflective material about the periphery of the hollow core. The dosimeter may further include a light source that generates light for use as a calibrating signal for a measurement signal and/or for use to check the light pipe.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2011Date of Patent: January 1, 2013Assignee: The University of SydneyInventors: Simon Fleming, Justin Elsey, Susan Law, Natalka Suchowerska, Jamil Lambert, David Robert McKenzie

Patent number: 8223262Abstract: One embodiment sets forth a method for modifying video content stored on a hand-held digital video camera (DVC). The method includes transmitting video data to a computer system to which the hand-held DVC is coupled via a data connector, receiving a request for a set of instructions related to a processing operation being performed on the computer system and involving the video data, transmitting the set of instructions to the computer system via the data connector. The method also includes drawing power from the computer system via the data connector and charging at least in part a battery associated with the hand-held DVC with the power drawn from the computer system, where the hand-held DVC remains coupled to the computer system via the data connector for the steps of transmitting, receiving, drawing and charging.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2008Date of Patent: July 17, 2012Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: Jonathan Kaplan, John Louis Warpakowski Furlan, Ariel Braunstein, Simon Fleming-Wood, Greg Allen Cummings, Eric Allan MacIntosh, Maarten Dinger

Publication number: 20110242002Abstract: A computing device that includes a display configured to display a first video and a touch strip configured to receive user input. The computing device further includes a processor and a memory storing instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to determine that the user input comprises a drag input defined by sliding at least one finger along the touch strip, and, in response to the drag input, cause a second video to be displayed on the display.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 30, 2010Publication date: October 6, 2011Inventors: Jonathan KAPLAN, John Furlan, Ariel Braunstein, Simon Fleming-Wood, Richard Tobias Inman, Greg Allen Cummings, Elizabeth A. Cleary, Ryan Devenish, Michael Jones, Matthew John Barthelemy

Patent number: 8014428Abstract: The present disclosure provides in a first aspect a mode-locked laser for generating laser pulses. The mode-locked laser comprises an optical coupler and a first optical path capable of carrying optical signals from and to the optical coupler. The first optical path includes an optical amplifier that is arranged so that saturation of optical amplification causes amplitude modulation of the light. The optical amplifier has a saturation time that is shorter than a pulse transition period of the mode-locked laser and is arranged for recovery of amplifying properties after the saturation within a period of time that is shorter than the pulse transition period of the mode-locked laser. The laser further comprises a second optical path capable of carrying optical signals from and to the optical coupler. The second optical path includes an optical isolator.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2008Date of Patent: September 6, 2011Assignee: University of SydneyInventors: Simon Fleming, Seong-Sik Min, Yucheng Zhao
