Modified testing equipment for adjusting the back focal length of a compact camera module (CCM) is proposed. The advantages of this modified testing equipment which includes a conversion lens are that it saves on testing space, offers a smaller sized testing chart, as well as high speed chart changing, and variable object distances. The modified testing equipment can produce a test chart of 38....

This paper reports the first of several tests of new auditory alarms originally proposed by Block et al. [1] and formalized in IEC 60601-1-8 for use in medical electrical equipment. We test whether participants who are supplied with the IEC-recommended mnemonics while learning label-alarm associations can more accurately identify the alarms after short periods of learning. Results for 18 partic...

In this article we discuss the suitability of various equipment types used to capture the user’s subjective perceptual quality evaluation for video streams with time-variant quality. We present four basic types of testing equipment (mouse, joystick, throttle and sliding bar). Since method and equipment used for testing must not influence the test results, we analyzed the requirements for the te...

creep phenomenon in rock engineering plays a key role in development of underground spaces as they must be stable enough for a long period of time. current research involved designing and manufacturing of a new creep testing machine. the equipment is capable to perform simultaneous light-duty creep tests on more than one cylindrical rock samples at a very low cost.to evaluate the equipment’s pe...
