20110258167XBRL SERVICE SYSTEM AND METHOD - Relationships between XBRL hypercubes, including implicit relationships, may be automatically determined based on shared dimensions. Once such relationships are understood, “generic” software (software that is not specific to a particular taxonomy) may be built to provide some or all of the following functionalities: determine, enforce, and/or encourage referential integrity; deduce (graph) ordered relationships between hypercubes; make inferences about those relationships; “join” or “split” hypercubes; create isomorphic and/or homomorphic views of a hypercube for user presentation; and/or assemble and order primary items (attached to hypercubes) in a logical (graph) order.10-20-2011

20090277092TELESCOPING SECURITY WINDOW - A removable security structure interposed between two window configurations is comprised of interconnecting horizontal and vertical members. One or more vertical members engages a gear junction of each horizontal member such that upon rotation of the vertical member, the horizontal member telescopically collapses. The reduction of length of each horizontal member disengages each horizontal member from a frame outlining the opening. The rotation of the vertical members also frees the upper portion of the vertical members of the security structure. With the upper and side portions of the security structure disengaged from the frame, the security structure can be rotated and removed from the opening allowing egress.11-12-2009

20080316212System and method for a user interface for text editing and menu selection - Methods and system to enable a user of an input action recognition text input system to edit any incorrectly recognized text without re-locating the text insertion position to the location of the text to be corrected. The System also automatically maintains correct spacing between textual objects when a textual object is replaced with an object for which automatic spacing is generated in a different manner. The System also enables the graphical presentation of menu choices in a manner that facilitates faster and easier selection of a desired choice by performing a selection gesture requiring less precision than directly contacting the sub-region of the menu associated with the desired choice.12-25-2008

20090182412EXPANDABLE STENT DELIVERY SYSTEM WITH OUTER SHEATH - According to aspects described herein, there is disclosed an improved hot balloon catheter delivery system for shape memory tubular stents is disclosed. An outer sheath is provided on the delivery system that facilitates stent placement on a balloon during delivery through an endoscope. In one embodiment, the stent may be positioned between radiopaque markers/electrodes and the balloon may be heated. The stent may be prevented from moving proximally relative to the catheter as the delivery system is tracked through the patient's anatomical passageways. The outer sheath may be positioned to ride over the proximal cone of the hot balloon catheter and abut the proximal end of the stent to facilitate proper alignment of the balloon for deployment. Upon deployment of the stent in an appropriate position, the sheath may be pulled away from the stent to expose the proximal cone of the balloon and thereby allow balloon and stent expansion.07-16-2009

20120105644Automated Personalized Imaging System - Systems and associated methods for capturing media content for a plurality of guests and intelligently parsing the media content to produce a customized/personalized media product for a particular guest or group of guests are described. A system is configured for combining video data and position tracking data to record a group guest experience or show and automatically provide custom media products. Embodiments record a plurality of guests throughout an experience or show, and simultaneously position track each guest individually. Embodiments utilize the tracking data to extract a sub-sampled video of each guest. This sub-sampled video is combined with additional media automatically according to a script. The result is a personalized video take-away for each guest, which can be created entirely without human intervention.05-03-2012
