  • Upconversion system comprising a glow discharge device (GDD) for imaging and communication
    Patent number: 11099126
    Abstract: An upconversion system, including: a glow discharge device (GDD) configured to detect signal source radiation, wherein the signal source radiation is at least one of millimeter wave (MMW) radiation and Terahertz (THz) radiation; and a photodetector configured to measure intensity changes in visible light emitted by said GDD as a result of absorption of the signal source radiation. The upconversion system optionally includes a processor operatively coupled to the photodetector. The processor is configured to analyze imagery captured by the photodetector, and to compute at least one parameter of the signal source radiation based on the imagery.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 17, 2017
    Date of Patent: August 24, 2021
    Assignees: B. G. NEGEV TECHNOLOGIES AND APPLICATIONS LTD., AT BEN-GURION UNIVERSITY, ARIEL SCIENTIFIC INNOVATIONS LTD.

  • Blind restoration of images degraded by isotropic blur
    Patent number: 8249357
    Abstract: A system and a method for automatic restoration of isotropic degradations of a digital image, based on receiving a blurred image by an image capture assembly, automatically finding proper step edge, calculating the PSF from the step edge, and restoring the blurred image by means of a processor, and with the option to display the resorted image by means of an output assembly.
