| 20100036455 | MEASUREMENT AND USE OF IN-SOCKET RESIDUAL LIMB VOLUME CHANGE DATA FOR PROSTHETIC FITTING - Changes in the volume of residual limbs on which prosthetic sockets are worn can be measured based on bioimpedance measurements along one or more segments of the limb. A current at an appropriate frequency (e.g., in the range from 1 kHz to 1 MHz) is injected at two current electrodes that contact the skin of the residual limb. The voltage at the voltage electrodes disposed between the current electrodes is measured and using an appropriate model, the change in the segmented volume of the limb can be determined during periods of different activity and at different times during the day. This information can be used for assessing the fit of the socket and can also provide a feedback signal for automatically controlling volume management devices, to ensure a more comfortable fit when the volume of the limb is changing. | 02-11-2010 |

| 20100259561 | VIRTUAL KEYPAD GENERATOR WITH LEARNING CAPABILITIES - Methods and systems enable defining customized virtual keyboards on a touch sensitive surface, such as a touchscreen. Using learning algorithms, a computing device may learn the typing patterns of a user and “morph” the keys of a virtual keyboard into locations, sizes, and orientations that are comfortable for the user and which may reduce typing errors. A user may create a custom keypad layout by performing a series of key strokes on a touch sensitive surface. The computing device may correlate the touch locations to particular keys and generate keypad layout data that can be used to display the virtual keyboard and interpret touches on the touch sensitive surface. The computing device may monitor user typing activity and refine the keypad layout data based on detected or corrected typing errors. Keypad layout data may be exported to other devices to enable users to take their virtual keyboards with them. | 10-14-2010 |
| 20100281400 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING PORTIONED WEB PAGES IN A GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE - Methods and devices enable displaying selected portions of one or more webpages in user defined view windows presented on a computing device display desktop. A selected webpage may be rendered into a full-sized render buffer in order for a rendering engine to render all the elements properly. One or more view windows are created on the display desktop that show user selected portions of the render buffer. In this manner users can select portions of one or more websites for presentation on their computing device desktop, position the selected portions at their preferred locations. | 11-04-2010 |
| 20110066971 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING APPLICATION INTERFACE PORTIONS ON PERIPHERAL COMPUTING DEVICES - The methods and devices enable displaying image portions generated on a first computing device on a second computing device. A master helper app on the first device receives user content selections and computes bounding boxes on each. The master helper app may expand the system frame buffer to hold the selected content and cause the windows manager to direct applications to draw contents into the expanded frame buffer. The master helper app may invoke a slave helper app on the second device to receive the frame buffer contents. The slave helper app stores the received display data in a frame buffer so the image is displayed. Resizing, blending and partitioning processing of display content can be accomplished on either the first or second devices or on a third proxy device. Keystrokes on the second device can be translated into commands executed on the first device. | 03-17-2011 |

| 20080198487 | Single step method for transferring digital motion pictures to movie theater systems - The disclosure is directed to techniques for transferring data files representing a digital motion picture to a motion picture system within a theater in a single step. More specifically, the techniques allow a user to press one button to initiate the transfer, or upload, of a plurality of data files stored on a data tape to a predetermined location within a data storage device within the theater. The single input from the user frees the user from completing the plurality of steps needed to manually select a desired data file from the data tape and find the location to transfer the data file. Instead, the data tape or user system may automatically identify the entire plurality of data files and the predetermined location at which to store the plurality of data files. The techniques facilitate the distribution of motion pictures from motion picture studios to theaters using magnetic tape media. | 08-21-2008 |
