A demodulator for wobble signals or other phase-modulated signals that can reduce demodulation errors due to superimposition of noise, as well as a data recording / reproduction device that contains said demodulator. In the signal range of the bit signal obtained by insertion synchronously with detected bit synchronization signal Bsync, prescribed sign operations are performed on integration values S2 of the wobble signals during periods where phase changes of bit signals should take place, respectively, and the results are summed so as to compute characteristic quantities S13 and S16 of the bit signals “1” and “0,” respectively. On the basis of the result of the comparison of the characteristic quantities, the value of the bit signal corresponding to bit synchronization signal Bsync is determined.

A method and apparatus is employed in determining the green-speed of a golf putting green. The method is achieved by selecting a site on a putting green having a relatively flat surface and determining the extent of putting surface available for measurements, setting a green-speed reading apparatus including a ramp, which includes a raised start end and a ground contacting release end with at least one golf ball rolling track thereon, in a first direction whereby the release end of the ramp contacts the putting green surface at the selected site, selecting one of two predetermined start positions for a golf ball based upon the extent of putting surface available for measurements and retaining the golf ball at the selected start position in the track, the start position being at the raised start end of the track, releasing the golf ball from the start position, allowing the golf ball to roll down the track by gravity onto the putting green surface, measuring the distance the golf ball rolls across the putting green from the release end of the ramp, repeating the test with the apparatus facing in the opposite direction at the selected site and measuring the distance the golf ball rolls across the putting green from the release end of the ramp, and calculating the average distance of all the golf balls rolled to determine a value in terms of green-speed.

A system for receiving of disposable items in an operating room, where the objects that are to be disposed of and which are equipped with a data carrier are automatically acquired and electronically registered in databases. The data carrier on the objects can be RFID tags or a barcode. The data read out are used in particular to individually recognize the type, quantity, and value of an object and to be able to document and display the type, quantity, and value of an object by using an electronic inventory and value determination process.

A switch operating device (100) configured to operate a switch (103) with four possible types (111 to 114) of non-tactile translational gestures performed with a heat emitting part (115). A gesture sensor (1) is adapted to detect heat emitted by the part while performing one of the translational gesture types. Four pixels (21 to 24) are arranged next to each other and output a signal (51 to 54) per pixel, wherein the signal has a signal deflection (58) corresponding to the temporal intensity curve of the heat detected by the thin film of the corresponding pixel. A signal processing unit (101) determines the performance of the translational gesture types from the temporal succession of the signal deflections (58). An actuator (104) is controlled by the signal processing unit and operates the switch when one of the translational gesture types is determined.
