Hand-Held Distance-Measurement Apparatus And System

US Patent:

5933224, Aug 3, 1999

Filed:

Sep 3, 1996

Appl. No.:

8/706904

Inventors:

Robin H. Hines - Tullahoma TN
Patrick J. Murphy - Tullahoma TN
Michael R. Glasscock - Tullahoma TN
William L. Goodman - Winchester TN
Anthony R. Korba - Irvine CA
Steven E. Harris - Newport Beach CA

International Classification:

G01C 308, F41G 132, G02F 103

US Classification:

356 401

Abstract:

The present invention relates to a portable, hand-held distance-measurement apparatus utilizing a laser range finder. The distance-measurement apparatus executes a number of distance-measurement cycles. In each cycle, a capacitor begins charging at approximately the same time that a light pulse is generated. An analog-to-digital converter generates a digital representation of the capacitor voltage at approximately the same time that a reflected light pulse is received. The lowest and the highest digital values are discarded and the remaining digital values are averaged and scaled to produce a distance measurement. A reflective target may be used at a remote location to reflect the light beam back to the distance-measurement apparatus. The distance-measurement apparatus has several power saving features that facilitate convenient battery operation. The distance-measurement apparatus may also have a view finder.

Method Of Controlling The Operation Of An Automated Postage Meter

US Patent:

7792765, Sep 7, 2010

Filed:

Mar 16, 2007

Appl. No.:

11/724673

Inventors:

Steven E. Harris - Newport Beach CA, US
Lawrence G. Marinelli - Lake Forest CA, US

Assignee:

Neopost Technologies - Bagneux

International Classification:

G06F 17/00, G06F 12/14, G07B 17/02

US Classification:

705408, 705401, 705404, 358 118

Abstract:

Disclosed is an improved work-ahead method for efficiently operating a software-controlled, automated postage meter of the type used to print postage and other digital data on batches of mail that are run through the meter during successive jobs which originate from different accounts. The operator enters data relating to the parameters for a first job to be completed. After the meter is initialized and the meter overhead is encountered, the first batch of mail for the first job is run through the postage meter. As the first job is being executed and the first batch of mail is being imprinted with postage, the operator enters the data relating to the parameters for the next job. The operator then loads a second batch of mail for the next job into the postage meter. Provided that the first job has been completed, but without having to once again initialize the postage meter and encounter all of the meter overhead, the second batch of letters for the next job is now run through the meter. The postage meter is continuously readied to receive another batch of mail for a new job at the same time that the preceding job is being completed.

Hand-Held Distance-Measurement Device With An Enhanced Viewfinder

US Patent:

5898484, Apr 27, 1999

Filed:

May 30, 1997

Appl. No.:

8/865958

Inventors:

Steven E. Harris - Newport Beach CA

International Classification:

G01C 308, G01C 106

US Classification:

356 401

Abstract:

The present invention relates to a portable, hand-held distance-measurement apparatus comprising a laser range finder which is aimed by an active viewfinder. The active viewfinder improves the accuracy of the range finder by giving the user more visual feedback and thus allowing the user better control over the ranging operation. Under user command, the viewfinder enters a targeting mode wherein the user is presented with a illuminated targeting indicator inside the viewfinder. The indicator is superimposed upon the field-of-view seen through the viewfinder. In the targeting mode, the user aims the range finder by placing the targeting indicator on the object to be ranged. Once the device is aimed, the user commands the distance-measurement device to execute a distance measurement cycle. In one embodiment, targeting indicator flashes in various ways to indicate the quality of the data being obtained during the distance measurement cycle. When enough data has been obtained to compute the distance, then the targeting indicator turns off, letting the user know that the display has been updated.
