Image processing apparatus for correcting distortion of image and image shooting apparatus for correcting distortion of shot image

A digital camera acquires the image of an original including an original from a shot image acquired by shooting. The digital camera reduces the image of the original and corrects distortion of the reduced image which is originated from the characteristic of a lens. As the digital camera performs distortion correction on the reduced image, the number of arithmetic operations in distortion correction is reduced, making distortion correction simpler. The digital camera acquires a rectangle defined by the contour of the original, extracts the image of the original to acquire an original image before reduction, and acquires an associated projection-transformed image by affine transformation. The digital camera acquires pixel positions of the original image using an affine parameter, and acquires pixel positions of the image before distortion correction using a relational expression of distortion correction performed on the reduced image.

Inspection system with oblique viewing angle

Apparatus for imaging an area of a surface along a viewing angle that is oblique to the surface includes an afocal optical relay, which is adapted to form a tilted initial image of the area by collecting optical radiation from the area along an optical axis oriented at the viewing angle. A tilt correction unit is coupled to correct a tilt of the initial image so as to form a substantially undistorted intermediate image. A magnification module is coupled to focus the intermediate image onto an image detector.

Rotor assembly, information-recording/-reproducing device using the rotor assembly and method of assembling the rotor assembly

An information-recording / -reproducing device comprises a rotor assembly formed of a disc portion having information recording layer provided on the main surface and an axle portion, the disc portion being connected at the center of a surface opposite to the main surface with the rotating axle so that the rotating axis crosses at right angle with the main surface of disc portion at the center of rotation, a bearing for supporting the axle of disc portion freely rotatable, a rotating magnet fixed to a rotor yoke, a stator disposed opposing to the rotating magnet, and a motor for rotating the disc portion with the rotating axis of the axle as the center of rotation. Preferably, the disc portion with the rotating axle portion having a round column shape or a cylindrical shape, further may have a shallow hollow in the central part of the main surface which being a surface opposite to the surface having the rotating axle.

Lattice strain measuring system and method

A lattice strain measuring method comprising the steps of: using a scanning transmission electron microscope 12 to apply convergent electron beams 34 to a sample 32 and obtain a convergent-beam electron diffraction image 36 of the sample 32; computing a lattice strain magnitude of the sample 32, based on the obtained convergent-beam electron diffraction image; and displaying the computed lattice strain magnitude, associated with an electron microscope image of the sample 32. A scanning transmission electron microscope 12 is used, whereby electron beams 34 are caused to scan to thereby suitably set an incidence position. Accordingly, the incidence position of the electron beams can be displaced at a nanometer-order pitch accurately in a short period of time. The use of a scanning transmission electron microscope 12 requires no image forming lens below the sample 32, and the convergent-beam electron diffraction image is free from the distortion due to the influence of an image forming lens. Thus, a distribution of lattice strains in an electronic device having, e.g., a micronized structure can be displayed in an image with high resolving power and with high accuracy and furthermore in a short period of time.

Programmable electronic stethoscope devices, algorithms, systems, and methods

A digital electronic stethoscope includes an acoustic sensor assembly that includes a body sensor portion and an ambient sensor portion, the body sensor portion being configured to make acoustically coupled contact with a subject while the ambient sensor portion is configured to face away from the body sensor portion so as to capture environmental noise proximate the body sensor portion; a signal processor and data storage system configured to communicate with the acoustic sensor assembly so as to receive detection signals therefrom, the detection signals including an auscultation signal comprising body target sound and a noise signal; and an output device configured to communicate with the signal processor and data storage system to provide at least one of an output signal or information derived from the output signal. The signal processor and data storage system includes a noise reduction system that removes both stationary noise and non-stationary noise from the detection signal to provide a clean auscultation signal substantially free of distortions. The signal processor and data storage system further includes an auscultation sound classification system configured to receive the clean auscultation signal and provide a classification thereof as at least one of a normal breath sound or an abnormal breath sound.
