| 20080278455 | User-Defined Enablement Protocol - A user interface method is disclosed. For a particular interface, such as a touch input device, the method involves defining an enablement protocol for a function and recording and retaining the enablement protocol of said function, such that a user enables the function by substantially reproducing the enablement protocol in the absence of spatial or temporal indication of at least a portion of the enablement protocol. | 11-13-2008 |
| 20110012856 | Methods for Operation of a Touch Input Device - The invention provides a method for operation of a touch input device comprising a touch input area. The method comprises the steps of (i) detecting a touch or near-touch of an object on or near said touch input area; (ii) determining a parameter indicative of the size and/or shape of said object; (iii) comparing said parameter with at least one predetermined value; and (iv) enabling an operational state of said touch input device in response to said comparison. The parameter may be compared with one or more threshold values which delimit the operational state of the input device. Such operational states include a sleep mode or active mode, the use of a full QWERTY or reduced keyboard, translation or rotation of graphical elements, etc. The method is particularly suitable for differentiating between a touch by a stylus or touch by a finger. | 01-20-2011 |

| 20110069018 | Double Touch Inputs - In the methods of the present invention a function is initiated with a first set of touches, then applied with a second set of touches. The methods are advantageous for touch input devices with limited or no ability to detect two or more simultaneous touch events, but are not limited to being used on such input devices. | 03-24-2011 |

| 20110044937 | STAGED IMMUNE-RESPONSE MODULATION IN ONCOLYTIC THERAPY - The invention provides methods for treating tumours, such as solid tumours, in a host. The methods may involve infecting the tumour with an amount of one or more strains of oncolytic virus. The virus will generally be selected to be effective to cause a lytic infection of tumour cells within the tumour. In various embodiments, the host neutrophil response to the lytic infection may be modulated, so that during the course of the lytic infection, the host has an initial neutrophil response and a secondary neutrophil response, these two responses being different in some material respect. For example, the secondary neutrophil response may mediate a greater degree of apoptotic killing of tumour cells than does the initial neutrophil response. | 02-24-2011 |

| 20090322800 | METHOD AND APPARATUS IN VARIOUS EMBODIMENTS FOR HDR IMPLEMENTATION IN DISPLAY DEVICES - An HDR display is a combination of technologies including, for example, a dual modulation architecture incorporating algorithms for artifact reduction, selection of individual components, and a design process for the display and/or pipeline for preserving the visual dynamic range from capture to display of an image or images. In one embodiment, the dual modulation architecture includes a backlight with an array of RGB LEDs and a combination of a heat sink and thermally conductive vias for maintaining a desired operating temperature. | 12-31-2009 |
| 20100118057 | CHROMATICITY CONTROL FOR SOLID-STATE ILLUMINATION SOURCES - Chromaticity of light output by a light-emitting diode, such as a light-emitting diode (LED), is adjusted while maintaining a brightness of the illumination source substantially constant by adjusting a drive schema for the illumination source. A driver for LEDs or other light-emitting diodes provides for varying a drive schema to adjust chromaticity of driven LEDs. | 05-13-2010 |
| 20110032248 | RETENTION AND OTHER MECHANISMS OR PROCESSES FOR DISPLAY CALIBRATION - A “burn-in” is purposely performed on an LCD panel. The “burn-in” is calculated to compensate for an artifact or malfunction of a display using the LCD panel. The “burn-in” may be calculated, for example, to compensate for brightness levels in a light field emanating from the backlight of a dual modulation display. The burn in performed, for example, during periods of “power-off” of the display (e.g., when the backlight of an LCD is off). | 02-10-2011 |
| 20120026405 | System and Method of Creating or Approving Multiple Video Streams - In an embodiment, a system generates multiple video streams. The system includes a color grading device and an appearance mapping device. The appearance mapping device operates on the data generated by the color grading device, and both the output of the color grading device and the output of the appearance mapping device may be displayed (and edited) simultaneously. In this manner, the efficiency of the editing process is improved. | 02-02-2012 |
| 20120063121 | Multi-Die LED Package and Backlight Unit Using the Same - A multi-die LED package comprises a diode that works as a light-emitting diode for emitting light and as a sensing diode for detecting at least one physical quantity. The multi-die LED package is able to provide desired luminance and color independent of aging, temperature or other effects. | 03-15-2012 |
