20130321758 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SIMULTANEOUSLY REDUCING GLARE AND VIEWING A LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY - Embodiments are described that simultaneously block glare arising from the reflection of polarized sunlight and can also allow a polarized liquid crystal display (LCD) to be clearly viewed. Embodiments may be useful for use as polarized sunglasses. Embodiments operate by using a unique property of a circular polarizer. One side of the circular polarizer substantially blocks the transmission of incident polarized light whereas the other side allows substantially complete transmission of incident polarized light. Using these opposite behaviors, polarizing sunglasses can be constructed in which the top portion uses a first side of the circular polarizer to block the polarized glare and the lower portion uses a second side of the circular polarizer, opposite from the first side, to view the LCD. Because two different polarizers are used, these sunglasses are called dual-polarization sunglasses to differentiate them from the traditional linear polarizer sunglasses | 12-05-2013 |

20140107990 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING FRICTION COEFFICIENT .mu. FOR AN AIRCRAFT LANDING EVENT - Method and system of determining ground-to-tyre friction coefficient for an aircraft landing event. The method uses an aircraft computational model to repeatedly model the landing event, varying one or more initial conditions of the aircraft model until a best match between a modelled value and a provided value of aircraft vertical acceleration is determined. The method uses initial conditions associated with the best match of modelled and provided vertical acceleration values and a strain value from a sensor on the aircraft landing gear, with the ground-to-tyre friction coefficient is a variable. The method models the landing gear to generate a modelled strain value and compares this with the measured strain value, and repeats the landing gear modelling step with a different value for the ground-to-tyre friction coefficient until a best match between the modelled strain value and the measured strain value is determined and outputting the respective friction coefficient value. | 04-17-2014 |

20110104481 | Automatic toilet flush blocker - A biodegradable paper cover that temporarily blocks the “eye” of a motion sensor on an automatic toilet providing complete flush control to the user: Motion sensor toilets often flush when it is not desirable, such as when a person is on it. This is especially true for young children because their stature does not block the sensor consistently. According to research, the unexpected flush is one of children's biggest fears. This can lead to refusal to use the toilet, high anxiety, or annoyance for any aged person. The blocker is placed over the “eye” to temporarily disable the automatic flush of the toilet. When the blocker is removed the toilet returns to normal functioning and flushes. The blocker is disposed of in the toilet where it dissolves. It eliminates the untimely flush, as well as the potential transfer of germs. The blocker provides complete flush control to the user. | 05-05-2011 |

20110136570 | CASHLESS GAMING - It is known for a gaining machine to issue a ticket or voucher having a value or an associated value as credit. It is a problem that such information carriers may become lost or stolen and subsequently redeemed by others. In the disclosed method, a player first registers and provides a first code to a gaming establishment and a value of credit available with which to play. A ticket is issued with a generated second code. On inserting the ticket in a gaming machine, prior to gaming being permitted, the gaming machine detects the second code and requires the player to enter the first code. The gaming machine validates the codes at the machine against corresponding codes stored elsewhere and permits gaming only when at least one of the codes matches. Thus, a ticket in accordance with the present invention will not be suitable for use other than by the player to whom the information carrier belongs since a third party will not have access to either the player provided code or the generated ticket code. | 06-09-2011 |
