Ce mode est encore utilisé de nos jours pour les applications cardiaques(étude des valves cardiaques et des parois du cœur). Dans ce mode, l'intensité du signal se traduit en échelle de brillance alors que les mouvements des structures réfléchissantes dans l'axe du faisceau se traduisent en temps réel sur l'échelle des ordonnées [...] 1, record 2, French, - mode%20mouvement

Qu'elle soit sous forme cristalline ou amorphe, sublimée ou colloïdale, poreuse ou gel, la silice se retrouve dans une très large gamme de produits traditionnels ou plus high tech : pneus, revêtements, pâte dentifrice, médicaments, batteries, microélectronique. Le milieu industriel classe ces différentes silices par leur mode d’élaboration dictant le type de matériau et donc le type d’application : la silice précipitée, la silice amorphe sublimée, le gel de silice, la silice colloïdale et le verre de silice :[...]-La silice amorphe sublimée donne des surfaces actives de 50 à 400 m²/g. En tant qu'additif elle améliore la résistance à la traction, la rigidité, la couleur, l'opacité ou la brillance. 3, record 3, French, - silice%20sublim%C3%A9e

SRA Communications showed this electronic display with optical magnification (EDOM) system in mock-up form at the Military Electronics Defence Expo late last year in Wiesbaden. It is intended to provide a head-down display of a range of different information and sensor pictures in the limited space of a military cockpit, using a high-brightness, 1-inch cathode ray tube with a lens to provide the pilot with a virtual image at a distance of between one and two metres from his eyes. 1, record 4, English, - electronic%20display%20with%20optical%20magnification

SRA Communications présentait à l'exposition MEDE la maquette d’un système d’affichage électronique à grossissement optique(Electronic Display with Optical Magnification, ou EDOM), conçu pour présenter en mode "tête basse", dans l'espace limité du poste de pilotage d’un avion militaire, une gamme d’informations et d’images en provenance des capteurs de bord. Mis au point par SRA pour le Service suédois des Matériels de défense et destiné aux futurs avions suédois comme le JAS, l'EDOM utilise un tube cathodique haute brillance, de 1 pouce, associé à une optique de grossissement pour présenter au pilote une image virtuelle à une distance de 1 à 2 mètres. 1, record 4, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20d%27affichage%20%C3%A9lectronique%20%C3%A0%20grossissement%20optique
