Abstract

A light control system for a television camera comprises an artificial light control system which is cooperative with an iris control system. This artificial light control system adjusts the power to lamps illuminating the camera viewing area to provide only sufficient artificial illumination necessary to provide a sufficient video signal when the camera iris is substantially open.

Energy-efficient lighting system for television

Patent Cawthorne, D.C.

This patent describes a television light intensity control system for a viewing area subjected to natural and controllable artificial light comprising: a television camera comprising: transducer means for converting light from the viewing area to a first signal representative of the intensity of the light; and an optical system for transmitting light from the viewing area into the camera, the system including optical control means for automatically controlling from a maximum value to a minimum value the ratio of light passing from the optical system to light incident upon the optical system; lamp means for providing the artificial light overmore »« less
Pupillary efficient lighting system

Patent Berman, Samuel M. (San Francisco, CA); Jewett, Don L. (Mill Valley, CA)

A lighting system having at least two independent lighting subsystems each with a different ratio of scotopic illumination to photopic illumination. The radiant energy in the visible region of the spectrum of the lighting subsystems can be adjusted relative to each other so that the total scotopic illumination of the combined system and the total photopic illumination of the combined system can be varied independently. The dilation or contraction of the pupil of an eye is controlled by the level of scotopic illumination and because the scotopic and photopic illumination can be separately controlled, the system allows the pupil sizemore »« less

Catalytic reactive separation system for energy-efficient production of cumene

Patent Buelna, Genoveva [Nuevo Laredo, MX]; Nenoff, Tina M [Albuquerque, NM]

The present invention relates to an atmospheric pressure, reactive separation column packed with a solid acid zeolite catalyst for producing cumene from the reaction of benzene with propylene. Use of this un-pressurized column, where simultaneous reaction and partial separation occur during cumene production, allow separation of un-reacted, excess benzene from other products as they form. This high-yielding, energy-efficient system allows for one-step processing of cumene, with reduced need for product purification. Reacting propylene and benzene in the presence of beta zeolite catalysts generated a selectivity greater than 85% for catalytic separation reactions at a reaction temperature of 115 degrees Cmore »« less
