Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080250508System, Device and Method for Interoperability Between Different Digital Rights Management Systems - A system, device and method for allowing protected content to be transferred to end user communication devices that support different digital rights management (DRM) formats or schemes than the DRM format of the content provider. The method includes providing a Limited Rights Issuer (LRI) that issues content and associated digital rights to one or more of the end user devices within a domain defined by a Domain Authority with which the LRI has registered. The Limited Rights Issuer also translates content and associated digital rights information from the DRM format of an upstream DRM system to the DRM format of a downstream DRM system, which includes the end user devices within the defined domain. The system allows select end user devices to enjoy interoperability of content protected under different DRM schemes, while allowing content providers to still maintain a suitable level of DRM protection for their content.10-09-2008

20110033063SURROUND SOUND GENERATION FROM A MICROPHONE ARRAY - A signal from each of an array of microphones is analyzed. For at least one subset of microphone signals, a time difference is estimated, which characterizes the relative time delays between the signals in the subset. A direction is estimated from which microphone inputs arrive from one or more acoustic sources, based at least partially on the estimated time differences. The microphone signals are filtered in relation to at least one filter transfer function, related to one or more filters. A first filter transfer function component has a value related to a first spatial orientation of the arrival direction, and a second component has a value related to a spatial orientation that is substantially orthogonal in relation to the first. A third filter function may have a fixed value. A driving signal for at least two loudspeakers is computed based on the filtering.02-10-2011

20090107970METHOD FOR CONTROLLING WELD QUALITY - The present invention relates to a method for controlling weld quality. The method comprises the steps of producing a shield gas curtain around the heat source and producing a shroud gas curtain spaced radially outward from the shield gas curtain, wherein the shroud gas curtain comprises a radially outward component of velocity. The shield gas curtain and the shroud gas curtain are configured to control the resultant mechanical and/or surface properties of the weld. The present invention also relates to a method for substantially confining and concentrating shield gas about the vicinity of a welding site, and a method for substantially recovering and reusing a shield gas in a welding operation.04-30-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100276396APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR WELDING - The present invention relates to arc welding torch and a method of extracting fume gas from a welding site. The torch comprises a metal electrode and at least one shield gas port adapted to direct a shield gas curtain around the metal electrode and a welding site. At least one shroud gas port is spaced radially outward from the shield gas port and adapted to impart to an exiting shroud gas a radially outward component of velocity. Fume gas is preferably extracted from a position radially intermediate the shield gas curtain and the shroud gas curtain.11-04-2010

20090301282Material Corner Shaper - A cutting apparatus for cutting a corner from sheet material to a selectable profile. In one set of embodiments, the cutting apparatus comprises a cutting assembly that includes a cutting element having a plurality of cutting profiles wherein each cutting profile may have a unique profile. The cutting assembly is configured such that an active cutting profile is selectable from the plurality of cutting profiles available on the cutting element. Engagement of the active cutting profile with one or more pieces of sheet material cuts a corner from the sheet material to a profile indicative of the active cutting profile. Cutting profiles may include curves having a uniform or variable radius of curvature and other forms appropriate for cutting a corner of sheet material.12-10-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090002501IMAGE BLUR CORRECTION USING A SECONDARY CAMERA - A device that employs a secondary camera for use in image blur correction. The device includes a first camera that acquires a digital image and a second camera that acquires a series of digital images that enable a determination of a motion of the device during acquisition of the digital image. The determined motion may be used to correct an image blur in the digital image acquired with the primary camera.01-01-2009
