  • Patent number: 10397474
    Abstract: System and method for remote monitoring of at least one observation area, including at least one first camera 110 arranged on a rotating platform 120, the first camera 110 is a line scanning camera for providing high definition panorama pictures of the observation area; at least one second camera 130 arranged on a stationary platform 140, the second camera 130 is a video camera with Pan/Tilt/Zoom functionality for providing real time video from a selected scene within the observation area; an angular position sensor device for triggering the read-out of each line in the first line scanning camera for providing each pixel in the panorama image with a corresponding azimuth and elevation angle; a processing device 150 connected to the first and second cameras 110, 130 for capturing, processing and coordinating azimuth and elevation signals received from the first and second cameras 110, 130.

  • Patent number: 6337741
    Abstract: A sensor system for measuring the light absorption in a target, e.g. a gas, comprising a first and a second optical transducer, one of which being a light source and the other being a light receiver, adapted to emit and detect, respectively, light within a chosen range of wavelengths, a partially reflective beam splitter adapted to reflect light to or from said first transducer, and to transmit light to or from said second transducer, and a lens or a group of lenses with a chosen focal length transmitting light to or from said transducers. The beam splitter comprises a first reflecting part and a second transmitting part being different from said first part, and a shield being positioned between said transmitting part and said first transducer.
