Compact-GC: MEMS-based gas-chromatographic platform

# Record card
61
Description

The compact-GC platform is a MEMS-based analytical module for the purge&trap pre-concentration and (gas)-chromatographic separation of a sample. The two analytical MEMS (pre-concentrator and GC column) are interconnected by means of a MEMS microfluidic manifold. The microfluidic manifold interconnects the analytical MEMS, but it also acts as injector through the integrated micro-valves.

TECHNOLOGY FOR THE SPACE-TIME MEASUREMENT OF SEA WAVES FROM MOVING PLATFORMS

# Record card
39
Description

The invention concerns an apparatus for measuring the three-dimensional (3-D) sea surface elevation from moving and floating platforms. In particular, the invention consists of two or more synchronized digital video-cameras that frame, from distinct and remote points of view, a common portion of the sea surface. A triangulation process makes it possible to obtain a three-dimensional reconstruction of the sea surface from these images. The invention is particularly suitable for measuring sea waves.
