20110202392System and Method for Un-Issuing Voting Credits - The present invention is directed to a system and method for un-issuing a voting credit that has been erroneously issued to a voter in an election. The system includes an electronic poll book that is used to check-in a voter by locating the appropriate voter record and analyzing the voter record to determine whether a voting credit has been issued to the voter in the election. If a voting credit has been issued to the voter, the electronic poll book displays an indication that the voter has already voted in the election. If it is determined that the voting credit was erroneously issued to the voter, a poll worker enters an un-issue code into the poll book. The poll book verifies the validity of the un-issue code and updates the voter record so as to un-issue the voting credit. As such, the voter may vote a regular ballot in the election.08-18-2011

20100130195TEST APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TESTING INTEROPERABILITY OF WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICES - A test apparatus and method are provided for testing interoperability of a first device to communicate with a second device via wireless communication. The test apparatus includes a wireless interface configured to interface via wireless communication with devices. The test apparatus also includes a processor, memory and logic stored in memory and executed by the processor. The logic causes the test apparatus to sequence through a plurality of wireless communication actions to communicate with a first device, monitor behavior of the first device during the actions, and store characteristics of the monitored behavior in memory so that the test apparatus may be used to emulate the first device when wirelessly communicating with a second device.05-27-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090027214Fuel filter monitor - The fuel filter monitor measures pressure upstream and downstream of a fuel filter or filter bank. A solid state differential pressure sensor senses the pressure difference across the filter or filter bank. The analog output of the pressure sensor is connected to an electronic gauge for continuous monitoring of the pressure differential to determine if the filter is reaching clogged condition. The analog output signal can be supplied to an analog to digital converter and the digital information supplied to a processor for pressure trending.01-29-2009
