| 20110287745 | ENHANCED COMMUNICATIONS LOG FOR A MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS DEVICE - A set of context incidents can be logged for a mobile communication device. Communication incidents to and from the mobile communication device can also be logged. The context data can be associated with the communication incidents. One or more of the context incidents can be associated with a set of different ones of the communication incidents. A call log window can be displayed upon a screen of the mobile communication device. The call log window can include a listing showing at least a portion of the communication incidents and an associated context incident. | 11-24-2011 |

| 20090041477 | ATTENUATION SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR USE WITH AN OPTICAL DETECTOR IN AN OPTICAL COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - Systems and methods for use with an optical communication beam are disclosed. The system allows the beam of light to operate at an adequate power level that provides a robust optical link while minimizing any safety risk to humans. The system calibrates and controls the gain for an avalanche photodiode detector (APD). A detector circuit is used to calibrate the APD. Once calibrated, the detector circuit further provides an electrical bias to the APD to process or condition the electrical signal to produce a detector output. The systems and methods disclosed herein attenuate the power level of an incoming communication beam to prevent oversaturation of an APD. The system further provides an alignment signal, which is effective over a wide dynamic range of incoming power levels. | 02-12-2009 |

| 20080275314 | System and Process for Non-Invasive Collection and Analysis of Physiological Signals - A system and method for detecting, monitoring and analyzing physiological characteristics. Signals from a subject are acquired from a suite of sensors, such as temperature, carbon dioxide, humidity, light, movement, electromagnetic and vibration sensors, in a passive, non-invasive manner. The signals are processed and physiological characteristics are isolated for analysis. The system and method are to analyze sleep patterns, as well as to prevent bed sores or detect conditions such as illness, restless leg syndrome, periodic leg movement, sleep walking, or sleep apnea. However, numerous other applications of the invention are also disclosed. | 11-06-2008 |

| 20110190667 | Method and System for the Derivation of Human Gait Characteristics and Detecting Falls Passively from Floor Vibrations - The gait monitor system and method provides various basic gait parameters including step count, cadence, and step duration, in addition to its ability to distinguish between normal, limping and shuffling gait modes, as well as determine falls. Moreover, this gait monitor may be provided with additional sensors, e.g. beam break at the beginning and end of a corridor to estimate average walking velocity (with the distance between the beams known or determined); this enables the calculation of additional gait characteristics such as average step length and average stride length. These parameters can additionally be used to detect various gait anomalies and other diagnostic information. | 08-04-2011 |

| 20090131132 | System and Method for the Processing, Display and Utilization of Wagering Data Concerning Parimutuel Evens - Described is a system and method for the capture, storage, processing, manipulation, utilization and display of data regarding pari-mutuel events. Wagering information data streams obtained from conventional sources are captured, stored, manipulated and processed to yield derivative data that can be displayed in alphanumeric and/or color-coded graphical representations and/or utilized in real-time. The displays and associated data generated by the system empower a user to create, display, store, and back-test wagering strategies and algorithms, including wagering algorithms that may be automatically effectuated by the system to generate actual bets and to calculate profit and loss for each bet, runner and event. | 05-21-2009 |
