Abstract: A spot sub-pixel center positioning method based on pixel movement and cutting, the method includes driving the CCD image plane to move along the x direction and the y direction through a displacement platform, selecting target pixels to move and cut the spot, and recording the gray value change of the target pixels, constructing the mapping relationship between gray value and displacement, performing differential transformation on the gray value and displacement curve, and finally performing interpolation fitting to obtain the sub-pixel coordinate value of the center point of the light spot. The measurement accuracy can be maintained within ½ of the single-step displacement of cutting. The method is not only suitable for strong and weak distribution of light spots, but also for fully saturated light spots, and also for asymmetrically distributed and blurred edges. It also has a good measurement effect and can handle a variety of spot scenes.

Abstract: A device for measuring the Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) of an optical system, the device including a six-axis manipulator and an internal focusing collimator. The internal focusing collimator is fixedly installed on a flange of the manipulator. The manipulator is used to adjust the exit pupil of the internal focusing collimator and the posture of the internal focusing collimator. The tool control points of the manipulator are set at the exit pupil of the internal focusing collimator. The exit pupil of the focus collimator is located at the entrance pupil of the optical system to be measured so that the exit pupil of the inner focus collimator and the entrance pupil of the optical system to be measured are arranged in parallel. The device uses a manipulator to surround the tool point, only changing the posture and does not change the characteristics of the position transformation.

Abstract: The present application relates to a monopolar electrode and a bipolar electrode that are used for electrosurgical instruments. The monopolar electrode and the bipolar electrode each include a conductive non-stick coating which is made by doping graphene and/or metal particles in a PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) base material. The present application also relates to a preparation method of a composite material forming the conductive non-stick coating. Since PTFE itself can prevent adhesion, the conductivity of PTFE can be improved by doping various conductive materials. After the composite material coating formed thereby covers a metal electrode, it is ensured that the working region and work energy of an electrotome are not reduced, the electrical conductivity of the electrode can be guaranteed, not only the blood coagulation effect of the electrotome is not affected but also the adhesion of the electrode on a tissue can be reduced. Furthermore, the structure is simple, and manufacturing is easy.
