20080312772 | MOTION CONTROL SYSTEM, MOTION CONTROL METHOD, AND MOTION CONTROL PROGRAM - The present invention provides a motion control system control a motion of a second motion body by considering an environment which a human contacts and a motion mode appropriate to the environment, and an environment which a robot actually contacts. The motion mode is learned based on an idea that it is sufficient to learn only a feature part of the motion mode of the human without a necessity to learn the others. Moreover, based on an idea that it is sufficient to reproduce only the feature part of the motion mode of the human without a necessity to reproduce the others, the motion mode of the robot is controlled by using the model obtained from the learning result. Thereby, the motion mode of the robot is controlled by using the motion mode of the human as a prototype without restricting the motion mode thereof more than necessary. | 12-18-2008 |

20100272242 | Voice over internet protocol (VolP) location based 911 conferencing - Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) emergency calls to an Emergency Response Center (ERC) are handled through a VoIP conference bridge on a VoIP service provider's soft switch. The soft switch works with a VoIP positioning center (VPC) to obtain location information, which is compared against a PSAP database to find an initial best-appropriate PSAP for the location of the emergency caller. The PSAP is issued an Invite message to join the conference, establishing an emergency call. Third parties such as police, ambulance may be issued Invite messages to join the conference. Cold transfers are avoided by Inviting participants to join a single emergency conference rather than passing an emergency call from party to party (e.g., from PSAP to police to ambulance, etc.) The PSAP, other emergency responders, and even the initial VoIP emergency caller may leave and rejoin the VoIP conference without dropping the conference between the others. | 10-28-2010 |

20080249796 | Voice over internet protocol (VoIP) location based commercial prospect conferencing - An automated system for matching a calling potential buyer on a VoIP phone with a prospective commercial business within their current area. The buyer may accept or reject connection with a best available prospective business to be automatically presented with the next prospective business as ranked by the presenting business locating service. The location of the potential buyer is provided or obtained, and the best available business selected from the database based on proximity to the buyers current location. A secondary prioritization may be applied to highest bidding businesses. The business finding module establishes a VoIP conference bridge, and invites the buyer and best available business. A pre-recorded message may be played into the conference bridge or directly to the buyer or business. The businesses may be ranked based on how much they pay or bid to be presented first to potential buyers. | 10-09-2008 |

20160036647 | Diagnostics of Deployed Devices Based on Network Traffic - This disclosure is directed to performing diagnostics on deployed devices that use network connectivity to transmit data in response to at least partially automated processes. In some embodiments, a diagnostic entity may monitor network traffic from deployed devices. The diagnostic entity may aggregate at least some of the network traffic to create profiles for at least some of the deployed devices and/or for some activities. The diagnostic entity may then identify outlier devices/activities from observed network behavior of deployed devices and/or activities based on the accessed network traffic and the profiles. The diagnostic entity may generate reports and/or perform or cause some corrective operations in response to identification of the outliers. In various embodiments, the diagnostic entity may predict network usage information for a group of devices and may possibly suggest revisions to service plans and/or usage of the deployed devices based at least partly on the predicted usage. | 02-04-2016 |

20080285892 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR IN-BROWSER PHOTO EDITING - An in-browser photo-editing application method and system. The method may typically include retrieving an image for manipulation along with a set of image manipulation instructions at a client computer and engaging a manipulation to the image from the client computer. Then, the client computer records image manipulation instructions simultaneous to displaying user edits. The set of image manipulation instructions are transmitted to the server when a mirror of the user's manipulated image is desired on the server. The server performs the manipulation instructions on its own copy of the original image to produce the mirror image. Copies of the pre-manipulated and post-manipulated image as well as the manipulation instructions may be stored at several locations including the client computer, the server computer or even a remote storage computer. | 11-20-2008 |
20100086234 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PRESERVING EDITING HISTORY IN AN IN-BROWSER PHOTO-EDITING APPLICATION - A system and method for preserving and retrieving editing history of a digital image. One method includes identifying a user of an in-browser photo-editing application, retrieving a plurality of digital photographs from a data store, the plurality of digital photographs associated with at least one previous photo-editing session of the identified user, and presenting selectable images of the retrieved digital photographs on a display, each image having an associated editing history. Such a system and method provides several advantages over the prior art. First, as a user may manipulate images over the course of time in various manners with various editing programs, the entire history of such edits may be preserved. Having the editing history known and retrievable allows the user to undo any or all editing manipulations to return to an original digital image as it was originally stored in the system. | 04-08-2010 |

20100160092 | Hockey Shooting Training Device - A hockey shooting training device comprises an elongate track and a carriage having a puck shaped an engaging member supported thereon for engagement by a hockey stick to be displaced along the track with the carriage from a starting end to a target end. Wheels on the carriage have a resilient peripheral surface for rolling along the track. A tether coupled to the carriage is wound onto a spool at the starting end of the track. Constant frictional resistance is applied to the spool during displacement of the carriage towards the target end as the tether unwinds from the spool. A winding mechanism on the spool returns the carriage to the starting end. An illuminated indicator extends along the track to provide visual guidance of the path of the carriage. A further indicator may indicate an angular offset of the engaging member from a central position about an upright axis. | 06-24-2010 |
