| 20090005961 | En-Route Navigation Display Method and Apparatus Using Head-Up Display - In an en-route navigation system such as for a vehicle, an image of a cable is presented as a navigation object in a head-up display to indicate a route that the vehicle should follow. In particular embodiments the cable appears to an observer to be a real cable existing in the landscape and extending higher than the head of the observer as would, for example, a trolley cable. The cable is illustratively displayed volumetrically and with an optic flow that is consistent with the optic flow of the landscape when the vehicle is moving, thereby creating the impression that it is real. As a result, the cable can be displayed without any accompanying images that correlate points on the cable with locations in the landscape and yet nonetheless serve as a very useful tool for indicating to a driver the route over which the vehicle should go. The cable may be in any of a number of forms including a continuous line, a line with non-closely-spaced gaps, a line having non-closely-spaced segments that have a different luminance from the rest of the line or a string of closely-spaced objects. | 01-01-2009 |

| 20080299820 | DIN RAIL MOUNT - A DIN rail mounted device that may be mounted to a DIN rail with minimal components and without requiring the use of tools. In some instances, an electrical device is provided that has one or more integrally formed rigid latches and one or more integrally formed flexible latches. The electrical device may be secured to a DIN rail by first engaging the rigid latches along an upper edge of the DIN rail, and then rotating the device downwards to engage the flexible latches along a lower edge of the DIN rail. The electrical device may be removed by pushing the device upwards, thereby bending the flexible latches downward to a degree where the rigid latches disengage the upper edge of the DIN rail, and then rotating the device forward and down. The flexible latches may be adapted to compress sufficiently to permit this downward travel, and a recess or other opening may be provided behind the flexible latches to allow such movement. | 12-04-2008 |

The movement of the first jaw and the second jaw may increase or decrease the size of the opening. In some cases, the opening may maintain a relatively constant center regardless of the size of the opening. In some cases, the actuation mechanism may be a wedge. In other cases, the actuation mechanism may be a double-threaded screw. | 02-26-2009 |

| 20100030775 | System And Method For Storing And Retrieving Non-Text-Based Information - A method for non-text-based identification of a selected item of stored music. The first broad portion of the method focuses on building a music identification database. That process requires capturing a tag of the selected musical item, and processing the tag to develop reference key to the same. Then the tag is stored, together with the reference key and an association to the stored music. The database is built by collecting a multiplicity of tags. The second broad portion of the method is retrieving a desired item of stored music from the database. That process calls for capturing a query tag from a user, and processing the query tag to develop a query key to the same. The query tag is compared to reference keys stored in the database to identify the desired item of stored music. | 02-04-2010 |
