Disclosed herein are undersea optical cable connection assemblies and systems. In some embodiments, a retainer is operable to arrange a plurality of SCFs and a plurality of microsplints, the retainer including a main body having a first section and a second section. The retainer may further include a first channel and a second channel extending through the first section, wherein a first set of SCFs extend through the first channel, and wherein a second set of SCFs extend through the second channel. The retainer may further include a third channel and a fourth channel extending through the first section, wherein a first set of microsplints extends through the third channel, and wherein a second set of microsplints extends through the fourth channel. A third set of microsplints extends through the third channel, wherein the first and third sets of microsplints are separated from one another by a padding layer.

Dual tail shape compensation filter in submarine cable joint

Determining spatial information about a part includes positioning the part in a fixture having two reference surfaces, where the part is positioned between the two reference surfaces, imaging the two reference surfaces and opposing surfaces of the part to different locations of a multi-element detector, simultaneously acquiring images of the opposing sides of the part and the two reference surfaces using the multi-element detector, and determining spatial information about the part based on the simultaneously acquired images.

Object thickness and surface profile measurements

The present invention provides an optical transmission device, comprising a chamber having a light input into the chamber, and having a first port allowing light to pass out of the chamber, and comprising internal surfaces where at least a portion of the surfaces is diffusely reflecting, and where at least a portion of the one or more surfaces is specularly reflecting, and where the light input and the first port and the one or more surfaces are configured such that substantially all light entering the chamber via the light source within a first predetermined aperture must encounter the diffusely reflecting portion before exiting the chamber via the first port within a second predetermined aperture. The invention can provide substantially homogenous light transmission, both as a source of light for optical systems and as a collector of light from a sample.

Illumination source and non-invasive tissue sampling system

An apparatus and method for non-invasive determination of attributes of human tissue by quantitative infrared spectroscopy. The system includes subsystems optimized to contend with the complexities of the tissue spectrum, high signal-to-noise ratio and photometric accuracy requirements, tissue sampling errors, calibration maintenance problems, and calibration transfer problems. The subsystems include an illumination subsystem, a tissue sampling subsystem, a spectrometer subsystem, a data acquisition subsystem, and a processing subsystem. The invention is applicable, as examples, to determining the concentration or change of concentration of alcohol in human tissue.
