TL;DR: An interferometric method for assessing the stability of precorneal tear film in real time is presented and the favorable influence of artificial tears applied in patients with dry-eye syndrome or contact lenses is discussed.
Abstract: Tear film stability plays an important role in the quality of vision. We present an interferometric method for assessing the stability of precorneal tear film in real time. A lateral shearing technique is applied as a noninvasive and sensitive method for investigating tear film stability and the smoothness of the tear film surface by quantitative evaluation of the interference fringe pattern. The evaporation of tears and the appearance of tear film break-up between blinks cause changes in the fringe geometry. For quantitative assessment of the fringe smoothness and consequently of the tear film structure, the fast Fourier transform (FFT) is applied. Four parameters are used to quantitatively estimate dynamic changes in the tear film stability of the cornea 20 s after the eye blink. Examples of examined interferograms recorded in patients with healthy eyes, patients suffering from dry-eye syndrome, and patients wearing contact lenses are given. Significant differences between the stability of the tear film in the healthy eye and that in the dry eye and the eye with a contact lens are observed. The favorable influence of artificial tears applied in patients with dry-eye syndrome or contact lenses is also discussed.

TL;DR: In this paper, issues related to the design of a fuzzy Luenberger observer for a drive system with a flexible joint is presented and the proposed estimator ensures shifting observer closed-loop poles in accordance with the present condition of the plant.
Abstract: In this paper, issues related to the design of a fuzzy Luenberger observer for a drive system with a flexible joint is presented. The proposed estimator ensures shifting observer closed-loop poles in accordance with the present condition of the plant. The dynamic states are recognized on the basis of the error between the plant and estimator outputs (classical approach), as well as additional signal (difference between electromagnetic, and shaft torque and its derivative). Depending on these signals, the fuzzy systems determine the location of the observer poles. The proposed control structure is investigated through a number of experimental tests.

TL;DR: In this article, a new design for thick film gas sensors was investigated and the sensors were made by the low temperature cofiring ceramics (LTCC) technique with a platinum heater buried inside the multilayer structure.
Abstract: A new design for thick film gas sensors was investigated. The sensors were made by the low temperature cofiring ceramics (LTCC) technique with a platinum heater buried inside the multilayer structure. SnO2 or SnO2 with Pd as catalyst thick films were used as gas sensitive materials. The properties of the gas sensors were measured with methane and carbon monoxide. The results of our study show that LTCC can be successfully applied in sensor technology as well as confirming the correctness of the sensor design.

TL;DR: An optical refractometer based on a birefringent fiber Bragg grating written in a new H-shaped fiber structure is proposed, capable of simultaneous measurement of refractive index and temperature.
Abstract: An optical refractometer based on a birefringent (Hi-Bi) fiber Bragg grating (FBG) written in a new H-shaped fiber structure is proposed. This structure is formed by opening the two holes of a side-hole fiber using chemical etching. When the Hi-Bi FBG is immersed in different liquids, different responses of the slow and fast wavelengths are obtained. The refractometer is also capable of simultaneous measurement of refractive index and temperature.
