20110115157GAME TOWER - A game apparatus and a method using a light source, a convex mirror and an optical sensor, all disposed within a housing, are described. The housing is transparent to the range of wavelengths from the light source and is composed of a low distortion scratch-resistant material. A game board is also used along with retro-reflective elements, such as moveable playing markers or game tokens, cards or regions affixed to and integrated into the game board. A data store stores the locations of the reflective elements and other game-related data, such as data needed to measure a player's score or position in a game or data to provide guided play. The convex mirror is disposed inside the housing such that light reflects from the light source, off the convex mirror, through the housing, and onto the game board. The one or more retro-reflective elements, when placed on the game board, receive light emanated from the light source. The light received by the one or more retro-reflective elements reflects off of the convex mirror and along substantially the same path from which the light was received. The optical sensor receives light reflected from the one or more retro-reflective elements, senses increases and decreases in the intensity of the reflected light, and signals changes in the intensity of the reflected light greater than or equal to a predefined level. A processor, or computer, is responsive to signals from the sensor and the data in the data store.05-19-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090323989System and method for calibrating an audiometer signal - A system and method for providing a translated or calibrated signal to a bone conduction transducer. The frequency of an audiometer output signal is detected and attenuation and amplification calibration values may be determined from a lookup table as a function of this frequency. Characteristics of the output signal may then be varied as a function of the calibration values to provide a translated or calibrated signal. This signal may then be provided to an exemplary bone conduction transducer such as a piezoelectric, electrostrictive or other electroactive bone conduction transducer.12-31-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080288336METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MANAGING REAL PROPERTY TRANSACTIONS HAVING INTERNET ACCESS AND CONTROL - In general, the invention is directed to a system for managing real estate transactions that includes a data interface and an application server. The data interface is configured to access property data for a number of properties listed for sale. The application server operatively connected to the data interface and configured to monitor a first search activity of a first buyer, where the first search activity is associated with at least one of the number of properties and monitor a second search activity of a second buyer, where the second search activity is associated with the at least one of the number of properties. The application server is further configured to generate an activity alert providing notification of the first search activity and the second search activity to a seller, where the at least one of the number of properties is listed for sale for the seller.11-20-2008

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080225749Auto-configuration of a network device - Exemplary systems and methods for auto-configuring a network device are provided. In exemplary embodiments, the network device receives network data, which is used to determine identification data for a client. A version of the client identification data is then sent to an ISP by the network device. In response, a public IP address is returned from the ISP. The network device then translates the public IP address into an internal IP address for use with the client. In some embodiments, the network device is verified by a central data center. In some embodiments, the network device may be provisioned for PSTN and/or VoIP calls.09-18-2008
20080316946System and method for providing virtual multiple lines in a communications system - An exemplary system and method for providing virtual multiple lines in a communication system is provided. The exemplary system allows a plurality of simultaneous phone calls to be conducted via a single access identifier (e.g., phone number). In exemplary embodiments, the system comprises a hub configured to route calls via PSTN and VoIP. The determination as to how the call should be routed may be performed by the hub, a call services server, or a combination of both. At least one client device may be coupled in communication with the hub and configured to enable placement or receipt of a second or subsequent call when a first call is active. The client device is coupled to a communication device which places or receives the second or subsequent call.12-25-2008
