Abstract: Media is transported to an imaging region using a vacuum feeder. A vacuum head is positioned onto the media and a vacuum is applied to the vacuum head to hold the media against the vacuum head. The vacuum head is then relocated to the imaging region carrying with it the media. In one embodiment, the vacuum head holds the media slightly above the surface of the imaging region. After the media is imaged, the vacuum head moves the media to an output region. In the output region the vacuum is removed from the vacuum head allowing the media to detach from the vacuum head and remain in the output region. In another embodiment, the vacuum is removed from the vacuum head allowing the media to detach from the vacuum head and remain in the imaging region. A second vacuum head is positioned in the imaging region onto the media and a vacuum is applied to the second vacuum head to hold the media against the second vacuum head. The second vacuum head is then relocated to the output region carrying with it the media. The second vacuum head moves the media to an output region. In the output region the vacuum is removed from the second vacuum head allowing the media to detach from the second vacuum head and remain in the output region.

Abstract: An electronic device and method of manufacturing the electronic device are disclosed herein. The electronic device comprises a substrate with at least a first and a second linear optical component mounted thereto. Each of the linear optical components includes a photodetecting portion and an interface portion, wherein the photodetecting portions are electrically connected to the interface portions. The photodetecting portions of the linear optical components are aligned along a first axis. The interface portion of the at least one first linear optical component is offset from the first axis in a first direction. The interface portion of the at least one second linear optical component is offset from the first axis in a second direction, which is different from the first direction. This arrangement of optical components reduces the size of the electronic device, which in turn, reduces the size of any device that incorporates the electronic device.

Abstract: An electronically controlled anti-dive suspension apparatus for a two-wheeled vehicle includes a suspension system, a sensor, an electronics module, and an actuator. The sensor mounted to the vehicle senses deceleration of the vehicle due to a braking action and produces an input representative thereof. The electronics module mounted to the vehicle and connected to the sensor receives and processes the input from the sensor and produces an output corresponding to a desired predetermined response to the deceleration of the vehicle. The actuator mounted to the vehicle and coupled to the suspension system receives the output from the electronics module and in response thereto causes the suspension system to reduce its amount of contraction and thereby prevent any resulting dive of the front end of the vehicle downward toward the ground.

Abstract: Expandable scanner apparatus may comprise a main body with a detector mounted therein. A contact head mounted to the main body can be moved toward and away from the main body between a retracted position and an extended position. An optical system operatively associated with the main body and the contact head focuses on the detector image light from an object being scanned when the contact head is in the extended position.

Abstract: An electronically controlled bicycle suspension apparatus includes a suspension system, a sensor such as a biaxial accelerometer, an electronics module, at least one actuator and at least one battery for powering the sensor, electronics module and actuator. The suspension system mounted to and between first and second parts of a bicycle movable relative to one another in response to a shock applied to the bicycle, includes a cylinder having telescoping members defining an interior cavity and respectively connected to the first and second relative movable bicycle parts and movable toward and away from one another between predetermined limits, an extendable and contractible spring disposed within the interior cavity being biased to force the telescoping members away from one another, a fluid contained in the interior cavity and a partition fixed across the interior cavity inside of a telescoping members to divide the interior cavity into separate chambers. The partition defines at least one orifice having a predetermined size for controlling a rate of flow of the fluid between the chambers so as to control contraction of the spring and thereby control movement of the telescoping members toward one another. The actuator is coupled to the cylinder and movable relative thereto to change the size of the orifice in the partition of the suspension system. The sensor is mounted to either one the first and second relative movable parts of the bicycle.

Abstract: A hand-held scanning device is disclosed in which the scanning device housing window has a recessed optical portion of the window formed such that the recessed optical portion of the window does not come into contact with the object being scanned while a scan is being performed. This recessed optical portion of the window eliminates damage caused by contact with the object being scanned to the optical portion of the window. The recessed portion of the window is formed without corners in such a manner that it may easily be wiped clean by the end user without dirt, dust and the like building up in corners of the recess. The recessed portion of the window is also formed in such a manner as to maintain the object in a relatively flat position under the scan window throughout the scanning process.

Abstract: A hand-held scanner apparatus may comprise a body having a three axis body coordinate system. An image head is mounted to said body so that the image head may move with respect to at least two axes of the three axis body coordinate system. A bias member connected between the body and the image head biases the image head to a home position and urges the face of the image head against the object during a sweep operation.

Abstract: A binocular head mounted display includes a first binocular eye piece including a first torsional brace and a second binocular eye piece including a second torsional brace configured to engage the first torsional brace. The binocular head mounted also includes a frame assembly holding the first binocular eye piece and the second binocular eye piece at an adjustable interpupillary distance. The frame assembly includes a torsional support to directly or indirectly engage the first torsional brace and the second torsional brace. Such engagement resists rotational movement of the first binocular eye piece relative to the second binocular eye piece.
