20130242110 | WEARABLE APPARATUS WITH INTEGRATED INFRARED IMAGING MODULE - Various techniques are disclosed for providing a wearable apparatus having an integrated infrared imaging module. In one example, a wearable apparatus implemented as a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) may include a shield to protect a user from an external environment, one or more infrared imaging modules, a projector, a processor, and a communication module for projecting a user-viewable thermal image onto a surface of the shield. Such infrared imaging modules may be positioned internal to the SCBA for protection from a hazardous external environment. In another example, a wearable apparatus implemented as a welding mask may include one or more infrared imaging modules, a projector, a processor, and a communication module, so as to project a user-viewable thermal image onto a surface of a shield of the welding mask, while at the same time protecting these components and the welder's face from a harsh welding environment. | 09-19-2013 |

20100077320 | SGML/XML to HTML conversion system and method for frame-based viewer - A system and method provides conversion of SGML or XML files to HTML files by component conversion techniques. In one embodiment, the system addresses the conversion of an SGML formatted document, with associated graphic and multimedia for viewing in a plurality of frames produced in a web browser, such as with Java or JavaScript. A parser allows for multi-layered HTML documents comprised of dynamically sizing framesets which combines transformed SGML and external components such as graphics multimedia with executable mini-applications that enable external (to the SGML document domain) referencing of add-on interactive features such as local and global search, bookmarks, and annotation. In a preferred embodiment, a Java or JavaScript executable produces a collapsible/expandable table of contents in one of the frames. | 03-25-2010 |

20120072358 | CUSTOMER CARE REPLIES ON SOCIAL MEDIA - In one implementation, customer service is managed by a contact center. The contact center includes a contact center server and an agent device. The contact center server monitors external social media to identify a social media post by a customer. The social media post may be filtered by the customer names, product identities, and/or the nature of the post. The contact center server accesses a database storing a plurality of agent identities and searches the social media for a reply to the customer's social media post. Replies may be identified using subject line or a reply indicator. The contact center server stores the reply to the social media post. | 03-22-2012 |

20080221347 | Nucleophile Leaving Groups - Sulfonate leaving groups include a cation chelating moiety, e.g. a polyether or crown ether. The chelating moiety stabilizes the sulfonate leaving group by forming a complex with a cation of a cation-nucleophile combination. The stabilized leaving group is more easily displaced under many conditions than are standard arylsulfonate leaving groups such as the toxyl group. The chelating moiety also favors certain cations depending on the identity of the moiety thereby enhancing the reaction rate with nucleophilic salts containing the preferred cation. Use of the inventive leaving groups results in improved yields, decreased reaction times and improved product purity. | 09-11-2008 |
