20110300516 | Tactile Tile Vocalization - Braille symbols are automatically read aloud, to aid in learning or using Braille. More generally, a tile which bears a tactile symbol and a corresponding visual symbol is placed in a sensing area, automatically distinguished from other tiles, and vocalized. The tile is sensed and distinguished from other tiles based on various signal mechanisms, or by computer vision analysis of the tile's visual symbol. Metadata is associated with the tile. Additional placed tiles are similarly sensed, identified, and vocalized. When multiple tiles are placed in the sensing area, they are vocalized individually, and an audible phrase spelled by their arrangement of tactile symbols is also produced. A lattice is provided with locations for receiving tiles. Metadata are associated with lattice locations. Tile placement is used to control an application program which responds to tile identifications. | 12-08-2011 |

20140041961 | FLATBED LOADING SYSTEM WITH SELF-ALIGNING PLATFORMS - A mobile platform has a separate and independent linear actuator pivotally connected near each opposite end of the platform where there is a contact limit switch that when triggered by contact with the side of a flatbed, stops movement of the actuator, and thus stops movement of the platform, toward the side of the flatbed. Because each of the two actuators is pivotally connected to its respective end of the platform and moves independently of the other, each end of the platform can stop moving toward the flatbed before or after, depending on how the flatbed is misaligned, the other end of the platform stops moving toward the flatbed. In this way the platform self-aligns to the alignment of the flatbed and avoids the need to reposition a flatbed that is not precisely aligned parallel to the central axis of the loading bay. | 02-13-2014 |
