  • Patent number: 5957570
    Abstract: A reflector discharge lamp in which a concave reflector has a front cover and in which a foil seal arrangement of hermetically sealed portions of a discharge lamp mounted therein can be advantageously prevented from reaching a high temperature. This is achieved by the discharge lamp being arranged such that a longitudinal axis of the discharge lamp coincides with the optical axis of the concave reflector by the end area of one of the hermetically sealed portions of the discharge lamp being located in an area of the concave reflector which is opposite the front cover. The end area of the other hermetically sealed portion projecting at least partially through and beyond an aperture in the front cover.

  • Patent number: 5523862
    Abstract: A reflector used for a light source material of a liquid crystal video projector provides a good projection image and causes no color shading to occur in the periphery of a screen. The reflector has a surface on which a dielectric multifilm coating is deposited. The reflector reflects only visible light beams and has a wavelength .lambda..sub.1, which has a spectral transmittance on a short wave side (with normal incidence) of 20% and is equal to or smaller than 440 nm and, at the same time, has a wavelength .lambda..sub.2, which has a spectral transmittance on a long wave side (with normal incidence) of 50% and is equal to or greater than 820 nm.

  • Patent number: 5374967
    Abstract: This invention provides an ophthalmological image processing system which can avoid data errors when processing images by appending data to identify a subject's left and right eyes, and other photographic condition data. The system comprises an ophthalmological camera for electronically obtaining an image of a subject's eyes, inputting means for inputting photographic condition data, and processing means for linking a fundus image obtained by the ophthalmological camera to the photographic condition data input by the inputting means.
