    Abstract: A method and apparatus for photon, ion or particle counting described that provides seven orders of magnitude of linear dynamic range (LDR) for a single detector. By explicitly considering the log-normal probability distribution in voltage transients as a function of the number of photons, ions or particles present, the binomial distribution of observed counts for a given threshold, the mean number of photons, ions or particles can be determined well beyond the conventional limit.

    Abstract: A device for performing solar shade analysis combines a spherical reflective dome and a ball compass mounted on a platform, with a compass alignment mark and four dots in the corners of the platform. A user may place the device on a surface of a roof, or in another location where solar shading analysis is required. A user, while standing above the device can take a photo of the device. The photographs can then be used in order to evaluate solar capacity and perform shade analysis for potential sites for solar photovoltaic systems. By using the device in conjunction with a mobile device having a camera, photographs may be taken and uploaded, to be analyzed and processed to determine a shading percentage. For example, the solar shade analysis system may calculate the percentage of time that the solar photovoltaic system might be shaded for each month of the year. These measurements and data, or similar measurements and data, may be valuable when applying for solar rebates or solar installation permits.

    Abstract: A system may include determination of power delivered to an intended load by a solar collector and determination of a solar tracking error of the solar collector based on the determined power. Some aspects include determination of a servo feedback signal based on the determined power, wherein determination of the solar tracking error includes determination of the solar tracking error based on the servo feedback signal. Determination of the solar tracking error may further include determination of the solar tracking error based on the servo feedback signal and on a relationship between a response of the solar collector and tracking error.

    Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft Verfahren zur Ermittlung der Erkenn- und Lesbarkeitsweiten von Lichtsignalen mit mehreren Lichtpunkten bei einer bestimmten Umfeldleuchtdichte. Die Berechnung der Erkennweite erfolgt erfindungsgemäss mit Hilfe der Annahme, dass die Gesamtleuchtdichte bzw. die Gesamtlichtstärke des Lichtsignals sich durch Multiplikation der Leuchtdichte bzw. Lichtstärke eines einzelnen Lichtpunktes mit der Anzahl der Lichtpunkte ergibt.
