Traffic information and automatic route guidance

A traffic information system includes a traffic information server linked to a mobile terminal via a supporting wireless communications network. The traffic information system provides traffic information pertaining to a learned route of travel to a user of the mobile terminal when it is recognized that the user is likely traveling or is likely to travel on the learned route of travel. Routes of travel are learned based on tracking the location of the mobile terminal while traveling a specific route of travel, or over time to identify commonly traveled routes. Recognizing that the user is traveling on or is about to travel on a learned route may entail recognizing that a current time matches a customary travel time for the learned route. Alternatively, or in combination, such recognition may entail recognizing that a current location of the mobile terminal matches a location associated with the learned route.

Apparatus and method for improved recovery of latent fingerprints

Hydrating an object bearing a latent fingerprint and then selectively drying the object leaving the fingerprint hydrated. The hydrated fingerprint is then coated with cyanoacrylate ester, preferably in a heat accelerated cyanoacrylate ester vacuum chamber. Hydrating is preferably accomplished by chilling the object below a dew point and then exposing the object to humidified air to condense a thin uniform layer of water over the object and latent fingerprint. Drying is preferably done with a vacuum. After drying reaches the preferred state, the CE is heated and coats the condensation-hydrated latent fingerprint. Preferably, the method is implemented in an automated system using one computer-controlled chamber for chilling, condensing, vacuum drying, and CE coating the latent fingerprint. The operator simply puts the object in the chamber, initiates the process by computer, and is prompted by the computer to remove the recovered latent print. Prints unrecoverable by prior art means are recovered.

Nuclear cargo detector

Apparatus for the inspection of cargo containers for nuclear materials comprising one or more arrays of modules comprising grounded, closed conductive tubes filled with an ionizing gas mixture such as, but not limited to, Argon:CO2. A wire is suspended along each tube axis and electrically connected at both ends of the tube. A positive, dc high voltage is supplied to one end of the wire and an amplifier is attached to the other end through a capacitance to decouple the amplifier from the high voltage. X-rays, gamma rays or neutrons produced by nuclear material and passing through the tube ionize the gas. The electrons from the gas ionization process are accelerated toward the wire surface due to the wire's electrical potential. The acceleration of the electrons near the wire's surface is sufficient to ionize more gas and produce an amplification of electrons / ions that create a surge of current large enough to be detectable by the amplifier. Means are also provided for a warning device coupled to the amplifier.
