| 20090012902 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING A SUPPLEMENTARY PRODUCT SALE AT A POINT-OF-SALE TERMINAL - A POS terminal provided in accordance with the present invention receives the items in a purchase. Typically, each item will have a bar code that is scanned by a bar code scanner, and the POS terminal in turn receives, from the bar code scanner, signals representative of the items. The POS terminal then determines an upsell based on the items, and a rounded price that the customer may pay for both the items and the upsell. The rounded price may be determined by rounding up the purchase price to a predetermined multiple, such as to the next higher dollar amount. The customer is provided with an offer to exchange the items and the upsell(s) for the rounded price, and the customer in turn responds to the offer. If the response indicates acceptance of the offer, the items and the upsell are exchanged for the rounded price. If necessary, the POS terminal makes appropriate adjustments to stored indications of available quantities of items to reflect that the items and upsell(s) have been sold. | 01-08-2009 |
| 20100174600 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PROVIDING CREDITS FOR GAME PLAY - Systems and methods are provided for offering a voucher which is redeemable for credits at a casino. The voucher may be redeemed for a first value of credits. One is charged a second value for the voucher, in which the second value is less than the first value. If the person is purchasing an additional product or service, the person may also be charged a reduced price for that product. | 07-08-2010 |

| 20110295690 | PROVIDING INFORMATION TO POTENTIAL PURCHASERS ELECTRONICALLY - In a electronic curbside information system, a seller is provided with an electronic “seller unit” that can be placed in physical proximity to a display, usually an advertising sign. Potential buyers carry “buyers units” usually in the form of smart phones in which an application is downloaded and stored. The buyer unit is programmed to communicate with the seller unit and store a unique identification associated with the seller unit. In a “profile server”, accessible over a public global communications network, the unique identification of each seller unit is associated with detailed product information, and is accessible directly by the buyer unit if the buyer unit can gain access to the global network. Alternatively, the identification stored in the buyer unit can be transferred to the buyer's personal computer, which can then communicate over the global network with the profile server and download the product details. | 12-01-2011 |

| 20080219891 | PORTABLE SENSOR ARRAY SYSTEM - A system for the rapid characterization of multi-analyte fluids, in one embodiment, includes a light source, a sensor array, and a detector. The sensor array is formed from a supporting member into which a plurality of cavities may be formed. A series of chemically sensitive particles are, in one embodiment positioned within the cavities. The particles may be configured to produce a signal when a receptor coupled to the particle interacts with the analyte. Using pattern recognition techniques, the analytes within a multi-analyte fluid may be characterized. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20090215646 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF ANALYTE DETECTION USING DIFFERENTIAL RECEPTORS - Methods and systems for detecting the presence of analytes are described. A fluid or gas sample containing one or more analytes may pass through a particle-based sensor array. Detection and analysis techniques may be applied to determine the identity and quantity of the analytes. | 08-27-2009 |
| 20090258791 | Fluid Based Analysis of Multiple Analytes by a Sensor Array - A system for the rapid characterization of multi-analyte fluids, in one embodiment, includes a light source, a sensor array, and a detector. The sensor array is formed from a supporting member into which a plurality of cavities may be formed. A series of chemically sensitive particles are, in one embodiment positioned within the cavities. The particles may be configured to produce a signal when a receptor coupled to the particle interacts with the analyte.
