20100144375 | Method for Determining the Path of a Person Equipped With a Mobile Phone Device - The invention relates to a method, which can be used to determine the local itinerary of a user of a variety of public means of transportation. Based on said determined itinerary then the travel cost can be equitably distributed among the individual operators of the means of transportation. The basis of the method is a comparison of the coordinates of stops of the public means of transportation with the coordinates of base stations for sending and receiving operations in mobile phone communication (GSM). Said coordinates must be determined only once and can be stored in a memory. If the coordinates of a base station into which a mobile phone is logged are close to the coordinates of a stop, it is assumed that the user of the mobile phone is located at said stop. During the travel of the user of the public means of transportation, it is detected at regular intervals—for example in intervals of 30 seconds—into what base station the mobile phone is logged. Then it is determined again which stop is the shortest distance from the base station just activated, and a conclusion is drawn about a line that the user is traveling on. Since the base method is still prone to inaccuracies, additional measures may be taken in order to make the route of the user of the mobile phone more precise. Such a measure is, for example, the comparison of the official schedule with the measured time and location information. By utilizing certain steps of the method it can also be checked whether the owner of the mobile phone is in possession of a properly purchased electronic ticket. | 06-10-2010 |

20130301101 | MICROMECHANICAL DEVICE - The force on the electrodes of an electrostatic field is used so that lateral tensile or compressive forces result which can deform a deformable element or can strongly deflect a deflectable structure. For this, a micromechanical device includes, apart from an electrode and a deformable element, an insulating spacer layer via which the electrode is fixed to the deformable element, wherein the insulating spacer layer is structured into several spaced-apart segments along a lateral direction, so that by applying an electric voltage between the electrode and the deformable element lateral tensile or compressive forces bending the deformable element along the lateral direction result. Thereby, the problem that normally accompanies electrostatic drives, namely the problem of the pull-in effect, is overcome. The deflection of the deformable element can be much larger than the gaps of the two electrodes, i.e. the above-mentioned electrode and the deformable element. A usage as a sensor is also possible. | 11-14-2013 |

20120029882 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GENERATING QUADRANGULATIONS - A system and method for quadrangulating a triangle mesh is taught herein. After constructing an as smooth as possible symmetric cross field satisfying a sparse set of directional constraints (t) capture the geometric structure of the surface), the mesh is cut open in order to enable a low distortion unfolding. Then, a seamless globally smooth parametrization is computed whose iso-parameter lines follow the cross field directions. Notably, sparsely distributed directional constraints are sufficient to automatically determine the appropriate number, type and position of singularities in the quadrangulation. Both steps of the algorithm (cross field and parametrization) can be formulated as a mixed-integer problem which is solved very efficiently by an adaptive greedy solver, in order to generate high quality quad meshes in a fully automatic manner. | 02-02-2012 |
