| 20110304729 | Method for Automatically Ignoring Cast Self Shadows to Increase the Effectiveness of Video Analytics Based Surveillance Systems - One of the challenges in video surveillance system is the detection of unwanted intruders in secure zones. These zones may be in large facilities such as airports, train stations, port facilities or warehouses. Because many of these locations are outdoors, the presence of shadows is detected on images. In order to effectively eliminate these shadows which will therefore result in a usable figure, these shadows must be eliminated. This is accomplished by forming a contour box around the image and then reducing the shadows based on preset parameters in the software. | 12-15-2011 |

| 20110195939 | ANTITUMOR PROPERTIES OF NO MODIFIED PROTEASE INHIBITORS - HIV-protease inhibitors, particularly saquinavir, showed strong anticancer activity but numerous side effects limited its application. In order to overcome its toxicity original compounds were modified by covalent attachment of NO. The efficacy of parental and NO-modified drug was compared in vitro and in vivo. Anticancer activities of NO-modified saquinavir (Saq-NO) was monitored in vitro using assay for cell viability, proliferation, necrotic, autophagic and apoptotic cell death, differentiation, expression of intracellular molecules such as cyclin D3, p53 and Akt. Antitumor properties and toxicity of the compound was estimated in vivo. Saq-NO abrogated the viability of large spectrum of human and rodent tumor cell lines with IC50 significantly lower than parental drug and expressed strong antimelanoma action in vivo. In contrast to saquinavir, there was no detectable toxicity against primary cells in vitro and in vivo. Saq-NO permanently diminished cell proliferation by induction of cell cycle block accompanied with minor presence of tumor cell death. Repressed proliferation was coordinated with strong activation of p53 and differentiation of C6 and B16 cells into oligodendrocytes or “Schwan” like cells, respectively. Oppositely to general characteristic of saquinavir to inhibit Akt signalling, Saq-NO treatment resulted in transient and intensive upregulation of Akt. This antagonism between parental and modified compound could be the crucial for switch of saquinavir from toxic to completely untoxic drug. | 08-11-2011 |

| 20080295990 | Oscillating Table - Oscillating table in which the oscillation drive, comprising a hydraulic actuator, transmits the oscillating motion to the mould via a spring subject to bending stress, for example a fitted rod. The body of the hydraulic actuator is also anchored to the floor by means of a fitted spring subjected to bending stress. Thus thanks to the absence of any mechanical bearings in the drive mechanism, all disadvantageous movements caused as a result of bearing play, which increases at high oscillation frequencies, are eliminated. Moreover, the use of mould guide elements having a much simpler design and consisting of straightforward bars, also ensures greater guidance precision and enables a reduction in the oscillation marks on the cast product, a reduction that is even more noticeable when working at higher oscillation frequencies. Advantageously, the presence of an anti-roll device, consisting of two or more pairs of bars, for example two pairs, ensures good torsional rigidity of the table. | 12-04-2008 |
