| 20090125283 | Method and apparatus for automatically determining compliance with building regulations - A protocol and software program are provided to create tagged representations of model building construction codes that have a tagging schema that reflects the logic and requirements of the codes from the text of the codes. The protocol and software can also be used to create “smart” versions of Federal, state, and locally adopted versions of the those codes, as well as reference standards and any other rules or regulations. The SMARTcodes™ and embedded schema and tags are usable by model checking software (MCS) as a limiting set of constraints when the MCS reads a building information model (BIM) that contains information about a building to check the building against the SMARTcodes™ and automatically assess code compliance for the building. In addition, the SMARTcodes™ may accessed manually by users through web-based interfaces to provide output that is useful for a variety of purposes. | 05-14-2009 |

| 20090171244 | METHODS AND APPARATUS OF CONE BEAM CT IMAGING AND IMAGE-GUIDED PROCEDURES - Disclosed are embodiments of methods of and systems for detecting and biopsying lesions with a cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) system. The system comprises, in some embodiments, a CBCT device configured to output a cone beam CT image of at least a portion of a patient's breast and a multi-axis transport module, having at least three degrees of freedom and configured to position a biopsy needle within a 3D frame of reference based on inputs received from the cone beam CT device. The transport module can be configured to place the biopsy needle adjacent to, or within, a target of interest within the breast. Also disclosed are embodiments of methods of and systems for testing CBCT systems with phantoms. | 07-02-2009 |

| 20110293668 | ORAL ODOR CONTROL METHOD AND PRODUCT - A product and method for controlling mouth odor and bad breath using an oral care product containing an odor neutralizer. The product for use in oral care or for use in the mouth to control mouth odors includes an odor neutralizer compound. In a preferred method of manufacture, the O.M. Complex oral compound is mixed into a concentrated flavor material. The concentrated flavor material is then added in small percentages to the product during manufacture so that the resulting product includes the odor neutralizer compound. The product may be used in the ordinary manner by a user and during use the O.M. Complex oral compound serves to capture and neutralize odor causing compounds. | 12-01-2011 |

| 20080197788 | Programmable Underwater Lighting System - The present disclosure relates to a programmable underwater lighting system for pools and spas. A plurality of underwater lights, each having a plurality of LEDs for producing light of various colors, a microprocessor for controlling the plurality of LEDs, and a memory in communication with the microprocessor containing one or more stored control programs, allow for the generation of various lighting effects in a pool or spa. A central controller is provided in communication with the plurality of underwater lights, and allows a user to define or select a desired lighting effect (such as a sequence, a fading effect, a “moving” color pattern, etc.) using a display and a keyboard. Optionally, a handheld remote control could be provided, in wireless communication with the central controller, for allowing a user to remotely control the plurality of lighting fixtures. When a desired lighting effect is defined by a user, the central controller transmits an instruction to each of the plurality of underwater lights instructing each light to execute a specific stored control program in its memory to produce the desired lighting effect. Each of the lights could be in communication with the central controller using a power line and an associated power line carrier data protocol, and each light could be provided with a thermal management system for monitoring the operating temperature of the light and automatically adjusting the brightness of the light to prevent dangerous temperatures. | 08-21-2008 |

| 20100220008 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OPTIMAL TIME, POSITION AND HEADING SOLUTION THROUGH THE INTEGRATION OF INDEPENDENT POSITIONING SYSTEMS - A system for, and method of, blending (or integrating) pseudo-range or position measurements and bearing-to-transmitter measurements from an eLORAN or LORAN-C receiver and position (alternatively, pseudo ranges) and velocity (alternatively pseudo-range rate) measurements from a GPS receiver. The described system can also be integrated with additional external positioning systems. In the context of an inertial navigation system (INS) application, this combined GPS/LORAN signal can be employed to provide external positioning solutions, potentially integrated with measurements from devises such as accelerometers, gyroscopes, altimeters, etc. The system includes a GPS signal input, a LORAN signal input, preprocessors for each, and an integrator to combine the two preprocessed signals to estimate errors in the full trajectory variables. | 09-02-2010 |
