Abstract:
An advertising element attachable to a product has a body attachable to a product for example by snapping in or in a different way, a display for displaying advertising information, an electronic unit operative for displaying the advertising information on the display, an audio unit for producing audio messages, and components for displaying preliminarily stored video messages and user-introduced video messages.
Abstract:
A seismic sensor, has a case, a pre-charged, non-conductive membrane located between two plates that form a capacitor and accommodated inside the case, with one of the plates being immovable relative to the case and the other of the plates being movable relative to the one plate under the action of seismic activity of a medium in which the sensor is located, so that the capacitor produces an electrical signal responsive to the seismic activity, and a mass increasing element associated with the movable plate so as to increase mass of the movable plate and therefore enhance oscillations of the movable plate under the action of the seismic activity.

Abstract:
A system for protection from intruders has at least two groups of sensors arranged so that the sensors in each of the groups are spaced from one another in a predetermined direction, while the groups of the sensors are spaced from one another in another direction which is substantially transverse to the one direction, the sensors being formed as seismic sensors, a single central control and processing unit arranged to receive unprocessed signals from the seismic sensors, at least one external alarm generating unit including a loudspeaker and a search light, at least one television camera associated with the alarm generating unit, and at least one phone line associated with the control and processing unit, the sensors, the alarm generating unit and the central control and processing unit being connected so that when an intruder is detected by at least one of the sensors of one of the groups of sensors, the alarm generating unit generates a loud voice warning by the loud speaker and generates a light by the search light, while the television camera records an image of the intruder in response to a command from the central control and processing unit which receives the signal from the at least one sensor, and when a sensor of the other of the groups of sensors additionally detects the intruder, the phone line is utilized to inform about a presence of the intruder.
Abstract:
A method of calibrating magnification of optical devices includes providing a mask with a predetermined pattern, projecting radiation through the mask so as to form a pattern image, and comparing a pattern of the image with a pattern of the mask to determine deviations of the image of the projected image from the image of the mask.
Abstract:
A method of automatically correcting magnification and/or non linearity of scanning electron microscope has the steps of loading a reference material in the microscope, inputting a pitch of the reference material and a nominal magnification of the microscope, obtaining an image of the reference material, determining a pitch and/or a linearity of the image of the reference material, comparing the pitch of the image with the inputted pitch of the reference material to obtain a ratio indicative of the magnification and/or comparing the magnification in different locations across an image field indicative of the linearity, comparing the thusly determined magnification with the nominal magnification, and if an error of magnification exceeds a predetermined value, adjusting the scanning electron microscope.

Abstract:
A container for alcoholic or non alcoholic beverages has a container body for accommodating a beverage, and a camera attached to the container body, for making pictures, as well as for storing, printing, and projecting the pictures.
Abstract:
A container for beverages has a container body, an electronic device provided with a display for displaying electronic images, and an additional element for holding the electronic device on the container body and including an element connected with the electronic device so as to form together a circumferentially extending unit which is fittable on a surface of the container body and tightly held on the latter.
