20090033683 | Method, system and apparatus for intelligent resizing of images - A new approach contemplating a variety of improved methods and systems to perform intelligent image resizing on an image is proposed. The approach enables a user to interactively mark or select portions of the image to preserve and/or remove. An energy function can then be used to calculate values of an energy metric, for a non-limiting example, entropy, on every pixel over the entire image. Such calculated values can then be used to determine the optimal regions where new pixels are to be inserted or existing pixels are to be removed in order to minimize the amount of energy lost (for shrinking) or added (for growing) in the image. | 02-05-2009 |

20130336797 | Fan Blade Assembly - A fan blade assembly includes multiple blades sandwiched between a base and a cap. The base has a hollow shaft and has multiple mounting slots, positioning tubes and fixing holes. Each of the blades has a mounting seat having two lugs. The lugs of any two adjacent blades are inserted into the respective mounting slot. The mounting seat has at least one first through hole to allow insertion of the respective positioning tube, and has at least one second through hole. The cap has a mounting sleeve mounted on the shaft, multiple positioning posts each inserted into the respective first through hole and multiple threaded tubes each inserted into the respective second through hole. The fan blade assembly also includes multiple fastening screws each extended through the respective fixing hole and each screwed into the respective threaded tube. | 12-19-2013 |

20130123587 | SEM SCANNER SENSING APPARATUS, SYSTEM AND METHODOLOGY FOR EARLY DETECTION OF ULCERS - A handheld, conforming capacitive sensing apparatus configured to measure Sub-Epidermal Moisture (SEM) as a mean to detect and monitor the formation of pressure ulcers. The device incorporates an array of electrodes which are excited to measure and scan SEM in a programmable and multiplexed manner by a battery-less RF-powered chip. The scanning operation is initiated by an interrogator which excites a coil embedded in the apparatus and provides the needed energy burst to support the scanning/reading operation. Each electrode measures the equivalent sub-epidermal capacitance corresponding and representing the moisture content. | 05-16-2013 |
20140024905 | APPARATUS, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS FOR TISSUE OXIMETRY AND PERFUSION IMAGING - A compact perfusion scanner and method of characterizing tissue health status are disclosed that incorporate pressure sensing components in conjunction with the optical sensors to monitor the level of applied pressure on target tissue for precise skin/tissue blood perfusion measurements and oximetry. The systems and methods allow perfusion imaging and perfusion mapping (geometric and temporal), signal processing and pattern recognition, noise cancelling and data fusion of perfusion data, scanner position and pressure readings. | 01-23-2014 |

20150058752 | DAILY TASK TOOLS THAT INTERFACE WITH BACKEND SYSTEMS - In one embodiment, an improved computer based daily task tool is provided that interfaces with backend systems to leverage the stored information and/or processing capabilities of backend systems to provide better information and more effective task tool functionality. | 02-26-2015 |
20150142974 | Multiple Profiles on a Shared Computing Device - Techniques are described for activating multiple profiles on a shared mobile computing device. Each profile can be used to establish a connection with an instance of an application where the application instances can potentially be hosted on different servers. Due to the fact that the activation process to activate a profile on the shared device can be time consuming and require interacting with other devices or servers, the techniques described allow multiple profiles to be activated on a shared mobile computing device. Access to each of the profiles is controlled by a login process. During logging out of a profile, the cache of the shared mobile computing device can be cleared to improve security. | 05-21-2015 |
