| 20110029966 | NON-INVASIVE AUTOMATIC OFFSITE PATCH FINGERPRINTING AND UPDATING SYSTEM AND METHOD - Methods, systems, and configured storage media are provided for discovering software updates, discovering if a given computer can use the software update, and then updating the computers with the software as needed automatically across a network without storing the updates on an intermediate machine within the network. Furthermore, when a failure is detected, the rollout is stopped and the software can be automatically removed from those computers that already were updated. The software update can be stored originally at an address that is inaccessible through the network firewall by intermediately uploading the software update to an update computer which is not a part of the network but has access through the firewall, which is then used to distribute the update. | 02-03-2011 |

| 20100085098 | DIGITAL DELAY LINE DRIVER - Improved digital delay line driver is described. A delay line driver circuit includes elements to drive the delay line in one or multiple locations to provide a dynamic, adjustable slew rate on the output signal. The delay line driver circuit may also include active elements coupled to the transistors of the delay line to deactivate the delay line transistors substantially simultaneously, rather than cascading in series. Shutting off the delay line transistors substantially simultaneously reduces or eliminates crowbar or shoot through current on an edge transition of the output signal. | 04-08-2010 |

| 20100042001 | Raman Instrument for Measuring Weak Signals in the Presence of Strong Background Fluorescence - A method for measuring a chemical concentration in tissue has two measurement steps. A portion of tissue is illuminated with a first generated light and a second generated light. A first Raman scattered light, corresponding to the first generated light, and a second Raman scattered light, corresponding to the second generated light, are directed to a plurality of light sensors, each light sensor measuring light at a different wavelength, that wavelength being proximate to a wavelength of an expected Raman shift wavelength for the chemical in the tissue. A measurement is obtained from each light sensor, each measurement being specific to the first scattered light and/or the second reflected light to that light sensor. The measurements of the first scattered light and the measurements of the second scattered light are used to calculate a concentration of the chemical in the tissue. | 02-18-2010 |

| 20100081520 | Method and Device For Improving Putting - Implementations of the present invention provide systems and methods for providing a golfer putting information. Preferred embodiments may provide a golfer with optimal ball trajectory, including the initial path the ball should be stuck on, point to which the ball should be struck and optimal force with which the ball should be struck. In preferred embodiments a golfer utilizes a mobile putting device, which may be placed anywhere on or around a putting surface, where a putting surface may be any suitable environment for striking a golf ball with a putter. Preferred embodiments of the putting device are structured to allow alignment with the cup and/or stationary object, indicate where the ball should be placed, indicate the optimal line on which the ball should be struck and the computed force with which the ball should be struck. Some embodiments are structured to provide a golfer with feedback on the distance a practice swing would move the ball if struck, or after an actual putt, how hard the ball was hit with respect to the calculated target. | 04-01-2010 |
