20090247484 | Compounds - The present invention relates to compounds which are capable of exerting an inhibitory effect on the Na+ glucose cotransporter SGLT in order to hinder glucose and galactose absorption, as well as on lipase thus reducing dietary triglyceride metabolism, for use in the treatment of conditions which benefit therefrom (diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome, obesity, prevention of weight gain or aiding weight loss). These compounds comprise a non-absorbable, non-digestible polymer having a glucopyranosyl or galactopyranosyl or equivalent moiety stably and covalently linked thereto, said glucopyranosyl or galactopyranosyl moiety being able to occupy the glucose-binding pocket of a SGLT transporter. | 10-01-2009 |

20150242810 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR LOGISTICS NETWORK UTILIZING MOBILE DEVICE LOCATION INFORMATION - Technology is disclosed for enabling an efficient logistics network based on mobile device location data. The technology does not necessarily need the street house numbers as delivery or pickup addresses, which are not available in some areas of the world. The location data (e.g., GPS coordinates) of the customers' mobile devices are used to suggest the logistics delivery and pickup locations. Drivers of the logistics network are equipped with logistics driver devices connected to a logistics data server for retrieving the location data. Guided by the location data, the drivers reach the target locations for the delivery or pickup tasks. | 08-27-2015 |

20090248176 | Method and Apparatus for Adaptive Cascade Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller - An adaptive cascade proportional-integral-derivative controller produces a fixed controller output including a fixed proportional-integral-derivative and a fixed feedforward controller command, and an adaptive controller output including an adaptive cascade PID and an adaptive feedforward command all from a reference command. The fixed controller output and the adaptive controller output are added to produce a control command for a controlled system, which provides a measure of an output and a rate of change of the output as feedback for the controller. | 10-01-2009 |
20090248177 | Method and Apparatus for Adaptive Parallel Proportional-Integral-Derivative Controller - An adaptive parallel proportional-integral-derivative controller produces a fixed controller output including a fixed proportional-integral-derivative and a fixed feedforward controller command, and an adaptive controller output including an adaptive parallel PID and an adaptive feedforward command all from a reference command. The fixed controller output and the adaptive controller output are added to produce a control command for a controlled system, which provides a measure of an output and a rate of change of the output as feedback for the controller. | 10-01-2009 |

20100246899 | Method and Apparatus for Dynamic Estimation of Feature Depth Using Calibrated Moving Camera - A method apparatus estimates depths of features observed in a sequence of images acquired of a scene by a moving camera by first estimating coordinates of the features and generating a sequence of perspective feature image. A set of differential equations are applied to the sequence of perspective feature images to form a reduced order dynamic state estimator for the depths using only a vector of linear and angular velocities of the camera and the focal length of the camera. The camera can be mounted on a robot manipulator end effector. The velocity of the camera is determined by robot joint encoder measurements and known robot kinematics. | 09-30-2010 |

20120101182 | DENTAL COMPOSITE CURING SYSTEM, APPARATUS, AND METHOD - Dental curing systems, apparatuses, and methods may include a light source, a perforated plate, and a dental composite. The perforated plate may be positioned between the light source and the dental composite. The perforated plate may include a plurality of perforations that convert a first curing light beam from the light source into multiple curing light beams before reaching the dental composite. The multiple curing light beams come in contact with the dental composite to begin the curing process at certain locations on the dental composite. The perforated plate may then be removed, and a second curing light beam from the light source may be applied to the dental composite to complete the curing process. | 04-26-2012 |

20080316582 | ELECTRO-OPTIC DISPLAYS, AND MATERIALS AND METHODS FOR PRODUCTION THEREOF - A first sub-assembly useful in an electro-optic display is produced by: providing an electro-optic sub-assembly comprising a layer of electro-optic medium; providing an adhesive sub-assembly comprising an adhesive layer, the adhesive layer being larger than the layer of electro-optic medium and having one or more apertures; adhering the adhesive sub-assembly to the electro-optic sub-assembly so that a part of the adhesive layer adheres to the layer of electro-optic medium but the aperture(s) are spaced from the layer of electro-optic medium. A second sub-assembly comprises a conductive layer and a layer of electro-optic medium. The conductive layer has a main section covered by the electro-optic medium, an exposed section free from the electro-optic medium, and a weak section connecting the main section and the exposed section, so that the exposed section can be manipulated to rupture the weak section, thus separating the exposed section from the main section without substantial damage. | 12-25-2008 |
