20090051528SECURITY ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MAKING SAME - A security system to identify a true door forced open alarm is provided. The security system includes an electronic entry means configured to allow access through a door. The security system also includes a request to exit device configured to indicate a request to exit the door. The security system also includes a logic unit configured to control access through the door and determine whether an open state of the door is allowed.02-26-2009
20090121869ACCESS MONITORING AND CONTROL SYSTEM AND METHOD - An access monitoring and control system is provided. The access monitoring and control system includes a sensing device configured to collect data points regarding at least one of movement of a person through an access portal and a state of the access portal and a processing unit configured to receive the data points from the sensing device and to form activity clusters from the data points based upon similar patterns of inactive or active behaviors.05-14-2009
20090254004SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MEASURING AND REPORTING CHANGES IN WALKING SPEED - A system and method for identifying a change in walking speed of a person is provided. The system comprises a plurality of sensors disposed in various rooms of a structure. The sensors are operable to provide a signal representative of motion and/or the location of the person within the structure. The system may also include a processor-based system that may receive signals representative of the motion and/or location of the person from the sensors. The processor-based system may establish a travel time for a path traveled by the person through the structure based on the signals representative of the motion and/or location of the person and may store the travel time within the processor-based system. The processor-based system may identify at least one path traveled by the person through the structure from among various travel paths traveled by the person through the structure as having a consistent travel time over a period of time. The processor-based system also identifies a change in the person's walking speed by identifying changes in the travel time for the at least one path traveled by the person through the structure. The system may alert the person or a caregiver to inform them of the change in walking speed identified by the system.10-08-2009
20100037059SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FORENSIC ANALYSIS OF MEDIA WORKS - A method and system for identifying a source of a copied work that in one embodiment includes obtaining at least some portions of a reference work, collecting at least some portions of the suspect work, matching the suspect work with the reference work, wherein the matching includes temporally aligning one or more frames of the reference work and the suspect work, spatially aligning frames of the reference work and the suspect work, and detecting forensic marks in the suspect work by spatiotemporal matching with the reference work.02-11-2010
20100235142AUTOMATIC REMOTE MONITORING AND DIAGNOSTICS SYSTEM - A Monitoring and Diagnostics System is provided, which includes a monitoring unit and a monitored unit remotely located from the monitoring unit. The System also includes communication means between the monitoring unit and the monitored unit. The monitored unit includes data acquisition means for providing fault data of the monitored unit and the communication means are adapted to communicate the fault data from the monitored unit to the monitoring unit. The monitoring unit includes a rules engine having a set of expert rules for analyzing the information contained in the fault data and being adapted to deduce diagnostics information from the rules and from the information. In addition, a communication method for communicating between a first Programmable Logic Controller and a second Programmable Logic Controller or a central unit is provided, in which a description file is provided.09-16-2010

20090004939Insect Screen - An insect screen comprised of knitted synthetic yarns and having a knitted pattern incorporated therein. First and second groups of yarns, such as polypropylene, are knitted with the first group of yarns forming a grid or mesh while the second group of yarns form a pattern. Once the insect screen is knitted, the insect screen is subjected to a finishing operation. In finishing the insect screen is stretched and placed in tension using selvages formed of a third group of yarns. The tensioned insect screen is heated causing the yarns to at least slightly plasticize and causing heat fusion of at least some stitches. Thereafter the insect screen and yarns are cooled, resulting in the insect screen becoming more rigid and generally assuming the stretched configuration in the absence of stretching.01-01-2009
20090139664Blind with Pockets - A vertical blind comprising a single fabric sheet having a series of vertical panels. The vertical panels include at least one relatively translucent panel and a plurality of vertical pocket panels. Each vertical pocket panel includes a vertical pocket. A vane is disposed and contained within the pocket for moving the associated pocket panel between open and closed positions. The vertical pocket panel along with the vane form a relatively opaque panel such that the vertical blind includes relatively translucent and relatively opaque panels.06-04-2009
20090139667Blind With Pockets - Forming, by weaving or warp knitting, a vertical blind comprising a single fabric sheet having a series of vertical panels. The vertical panels include at least one relatively translucent panel and a plurality of vertical pocket panels. The vertical blind can be formed by weaving or knitting a fabric in width-for-width or width-for-length arrangements on a weaving loom or a double needle bar knitting machine.06-04-2009
