InactiveUS7397363B2Facilitate monitoringFacilitate controlElectric signal transmission systemsAnti-theft devicesEngineeringWeb site
An apparatus including a first device which generates and / or transmits a first signal and which is associated with a web site and located remote from a premises or vehicle. The first signal is transmitted in response to a second signal transmitted from a second device located remote from the first device and remote from the premises or vehicle. The first device determines whether an action or an operation associated with the second signal is authorized or allowed and, if so, transmits the first signal to a third device located at the premises. The second signal is transmitted via the Internet and / or the World Wide Web. The third device generates and / or transmits a third signal for activating, de-activating, disabling, re-enabling, and / or controlling an operation of, a system, device, equipment, equipment system, component, and appliance, of the premises or vehicle.

Method and apparatus for delivery and detection of transmural cardiac ablation lesions
InactiveUS20090306643A1Improve control and performanceFacilitate controlDiagnosticsSurgical navigation systemsOhmCardiac cycle
During cardiac wall tissue ablation with an RF catheter, the observation of an 8 to 12 ohm drop in the tissue impedance is indicative of the production of a transmural lesion. Due to a magnetic catheter's ability to stay in the same position throughout the cardiac cycle and the consistency of forces applied throughout the cardiac cycle, the impedance measurement from the distal electrode of the magnetic catheter is uniquely useful in determining the achievement of a transmural lesion. The use of this impedance measurement during ablation with a magnetic catheter can thus be used as an indication of when the ablation has achieved a successful treatment endpoint. An RF generator's impedance measurement along with knowledge of the navigational state of a magnetic catheter can thus be used to control the delivery of energy for the purpose of delivering only as much RF energy as is necessary to achieve a clinically effective lesion and to stop RF energy delivery prior to the onset of an adverse event.

Electro-optical dimming system
An electronic dimming system for use in projection displays is provided. In a first embodiment, the dimming system comprises a first non-absorbing polarizer, a variable polarization rotator, a second non-absorbing polarizer and a heat absorber. The first non-absorbing polarizer receives light from a light source and passes the light of a selected polarization to the variable polarization rotator. The variable polarization rotator selectively rotates the polarization of the received light. The light passes from the variable polarization rotator to the second non-absorbing polarizer. The second non-absorbing polarizer passes only light of a second selected polarization. The light that passes the second non-absorbing polarizer is passed to the display, where it is used to illuminate the display. The system provides the ability to control the amount of light passed to the display by selectively rotating the polarization of the light with the variable polarization rotator.

A networked configuration of structural health monitoring elements. Monitoring elements such as sensors and actuators are configured as a network, with groups of monitoring elements each controlled by a local controller, or cluster controller. A data bus interconnects each cluster controller with a router, forming a networked group of “monitoring clusters” connected to a router. In some embodiments, the router identifies particular clusters, and sends commands to the appropriate cluster controllers, instructing them to carry out the appropriate monitoring operations. In turn, the cluster controllers identify certain ones of their monitoring elements, and direct them to monitor the structure as necessary. Data returned from the monitoring elements is sent to the cluster controllers, which then pass the information to the router.

InactiveUS20050144582A1Facilitate controlConveniently changedCAD circuit designSpecial data processing applicationsDesign technologyIntegrated circuit
Techniques which allow a bit value stored / generated by integrated circuits to be changed by changing potentially only one of several masks used to fabricate the circuits. For example, when a single mask is to be re-designed to implement a design change (e.g., to fix minor bugs) and a version identifier is to be changed, the same mask can be used to implement the change in the version identifier as well. An embodiment allows the bit value to be changed any number of times by changing only one mask. As a result, the invention minimizes the number of masks that may need to be changed when implementing design changes.
