  • Publication number: 20190149795
    Abstract: The present invention comprises a line scan camera and a variable focus optical element. With the line scan camera, the three dimensional imaging system of the present invention can overcome the speed problems of the area sensor and the variable focus optical element (Micromirror Array Lens) can change depth as fast as the line scan camera refreshes for the next scan so that the line scan camera and the variable focus optical element can be coupled to control optical depth and the linear scan. With help of the present invention scheme, three dimensional scan can be achieved with only one path scan of the line scan. Scheme, apparatus, and method are disclosed in the present invention.

  • Patent number: 9705401
    Abstract: A buck-boost converter includes: a converting circuit; a ripple injector; a hysteresis comparator; and a switching controller. The converting circuit is configured to generate an output voltage by adjusting an input voltage in a buck mode, a boost mode, and a buck-boost mode. The ripple injector is configured to generate a ripple based on switching signals corresponding to switching operations of the converting circuit. The hysteresis comparator outputs at least one switching control signal by comparing an output control voltage with a feedback voltage generated by adding the ripple to a divided voltage generated by performing a voltage division on the output voltage. The switching controller is configured to change a current flow path of the converting circuit based on the at least one switching control signal.
