Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090056684Low emission dimethyl ether (DME) engine - A compression ignition internal combustion engine system combusts DME as fuel using high fuel injection pressures (e.g., above 800 bar) and low oxygen concentrations (e.g., below 17%, through high levels of EGR), thereby resulting in simultaneously very low NOx and PM engine-out emissions.03-05-2009

20100323348Methods and Compositions for Using Error-Detecting and/or Error-Correcting Barcodes in Nucleic Acid Amplification Process - The present invention provides methods and compositions for detecting and correcting errors in nucleic acid amplification processes, and methods for using the same. In particular, barcode amplification errors are detected and corrected such that integrity in sample assignment is maintained. The methods are compatible with high throughput sequencing techniques as some of the barcodes are based upon Hamming codes, thereby allowing self-correction for single bit errors. Some methods and compositions of the invention allow characterization (e.g., sequencing) of a plurality of nucleic acid samples simultaneously within a single sequencing reaction.12-23-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090088248GAME CONTROLLING APPARATUS FOR PEDALING MOTION - A game controlling apparatus designed for using a pedaling (or winding) motion to control a video game. The game controlling apparatus preferably includes a platform element adapted to secure a game controller and at least a first handle and a second handle, each handle being capable of rotation about an axis of rotation relative to the platform element. The game controlling apparatus additionally may include an attachment mechanism adapted to secure the game controller to the platform. The first and second handle are preferably positioned on opposite sides of the platform element and on opposite ends of the platform element so that a pedaling motion while gripping the first and second handle will produce rotation of the game controller preferably about a centrally located point on the game controller.04-02-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100018333PRECESSIONAL DEVICE AND METHOD - A precessional device having independent control of the output torque generated by the device and the oscillation rate of the device is disclosed. The device comprises a rotor supported by an axle wherein the ends of the axle are supported by a circular race. The circular race is rotatable, and may be driven by a motor or other means, thereby controlling the oscillation rate of the device independently of the output torque arising from the rotation rate of the rotor. The motor may be controlled by a control program that adjusts the rotation rate of the circular race to modify the shape of the resistance curve.01-28-2010
