The present invention provides a subharmonic mixer for mixing a wanted signal in the submil-limeter or terahertz frequency range with a local oscillator signal. There the frequency of the lo-cal oscillator signal is an integer fraction of the wanted signal fre- quency. The new harmonic mixer is used to generate a mixing signal from frequencies in the submilli-me- ter and the terahertz wavelength and is suit-able for the use in power measurements, dis-tance sensors, 2D-, 3D-cameras, tomography devices as well as in the high frequency com-munication technology. Possible applications can thus be found in medical, security and food technology.

Electro-optical Camera with Demodulating Detector Array
Hand Prosthesis Which Encloses Several Fingers
Abstract: This technology, describes a hand prosthesis which encloses several fingers and a thumb and allows a huge number of different movements of the hand and grasp types.
Present easier solutions assume from the fact that all fingers travel the same finger ways with the grasp.
Abstract: The new electro-optical camera provides a 2-dimen- sional detection of high-frequency radiation with a plurality of pixels. The cameras basis is build by an electro-optic crystal, an analyzer and a novel demo- dulating detector array.

This disadvantage is compensated with the present prosthesis via elastic rubber elements which are inte- grated in the driving roll. Highly complex and myoe- lectric prosthesis are also able to do this, but never- theless, are compared with the presented technology very complex and expensive.
