| 20120031120 | Defrosting a Freezing Unit and Liquid Purification - A method and system for liquid purification and defrosting a freezing unit harvests energy released as heat from a condenser. Liquid received from a source into a first liquid storage container is heated using heat collected from the condenser using at least one heat conducting rod. A second liquid storage container connected to the first liquid storage container is maintained at a lower temperature than the first liquid storage container. As a first portion of heated liquid is transferred from the first liquid storage container to the second liquid storage container, bacteria in the first portion of heated liquid is denatured as a result of the temperature change, and the liquid is purified. Filters may also be used to improve purification. A second portion of heated liquid is transferred between the first liquid storage container and a freezing unit via at least one heat conducting pipe causing defrosting of the freezing unit. | 02-09-2012 |
| 20110149844 | MULTI-SERVICE ADAPTABLE ROUTING PROTOCOL FOR WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS - In accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure, an apparatus is disclosed that includes a sensor node configured to operate in a wireless sensor network, wherein the sensor node is configured to receive a data packet that comprises a quality of service field, examine the quality of service field, and invoke one of a plurality of pre-stored algorithms depending on the value of the quality of service field. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20110064269 | OBJECT POSITION TRACKING SYSTEM AND METHOD - A method of tracking an object is provided. The method includes obtaining sensed positions of the object at a plurality of time instants and predicting a future position of the object by applying fuzzy predictive rules to the sensed positions of the object obtained from at least two previous time instants. | 03-17-2011 |
| 20110051814 | IMAGE PROCESSING SYSTEM AND METHOD - A system and method for processing an image is provided. The system includes an encoder configured to subdivide the image into N subregions. The value of N is computed based upon a spatial resolution of the image, a granularity value and a level of wavelet decomposition. The encoder is configured to perform wavelet decomposition on each of the N subregions. The system includes memory circuitry configured to store image data resulting from the decomposition for later transmission. | 03-03-2011 |
