| 20080247796 | SDM AUTOMATIC CONTROL ALGORITHM - A device, method and program for automatically adjusting a paper curl of media in an imaging device are provided. The imaging device includes a decurler having two rollers defining a nip. A first roller has a substantially uncompressible surface, and a second roller has a substantially compressible surface. The first roller penetrates the second roller at the nip. The amount of curl of the media is adjusted at the nip by automatically adjusting the penetration of the second roller into the first roller. The amount of penetration of the second roller into the first roller is based on a set of factors and conditions. A penetration value based on the factors and conditions is used to adjust the position of the first roller and the second roller respective to each other, which in turn, will alter or reduce the media curl to a target curl. | 10-09-2008 |
| 20110064499 | CLOSED LOOP STALLED ROLL REGISTRATION - This invention uses a paper registration device with a paper transport and a stalled roll together with an upstream and downstream CIS to enable paper skew measurements. The upstream CIS is positioned on a paper sheet transport between a beginning pre-registration nip and a buckle control sensor. A second downstream CIS is aligned with the first upstream CIS to provide skew measurement on the same side of a paper sheet. An advantage of this registration device is that it simultaneously corrects registration in a process direction, a cross process direction and corrects skew angle. | 03-17-2011 |

| 20120164753 | MONOLITHIC FBAR-CMOS STRUCTURE SUCH AS FOR MASS SENSING - An apparatus comprises a thin-film bulk acoustic resonator such as including an acoustic mirror, a piezoelectric region acoustically coupled to the acoustic mirror, and first and second conductors electrically coupled to the piezoelectric region. In an example, an integrated circuit substrate can include an interface circuit connected to the first and second conductors of the resonator, the integrated circuit substrate configured to mechanically support the resonator. An example can include an array of such resonators co-integrated with the interface circuit and configured to detect a mass change associated with one or more of a specified protein binding, a specified antibody-antigen coupling, a specified hybridization of a DNA oligomer, or an adsorption of specified gas molecules. | 06-28-2012 |

| 20100066684 | Multimodal portable communication interface for accessing video content - A portable communication device has a touch screen display that receives tactile input and a microphone that receives audio input. The portable communication device initiates a query for media based at least in part on tactile input and audio input. The touch screen display is a multi-touch screen. The portable communication device sends an initiated query and receives a text response indicative of a speech to text conversion of the query. The portable communication device then displays video in response to tactile input and audio input. | 03-18-2010 |

| 20090089251 | MULTIMODAL INTERFACE FOR SEARCHING MULTIMEDIA CONTENT - A disclosed method and computer program product for searching a multimedia content database include determining a first query parameter provided by a user via a first input modality and optionally determining a second query parameter provided the user via a second input modality. A multidimensional query is generated where the query is indicative of the first and second query parameters. The query is applied to the multimedia content database to retrieve records of matching content. The retrieved records are then displayed to the user. The user may refine the query results using additional multidimensional and multimodal queries. | 04-02-2009 |

| 20120089605 | USER PROFILE AND ITS LOCATION IN A CLUSTERED PROFILE LANDSCAPE - Delivering targeted content includes collecting, via at least one tangible processor, user activity data for users during a specified time period. questions asked by the users during the specified time period are extracted from the user activity data, via the at least one tangible processor, and stored in user profiles for the users. The user profiles are clustered, via the at least one tangible processor, based on the questions asked. Targeted content is delivered, via the at least one tangible processor, to a subset of the users based on the clustering. | 04-12-2012 |
| 20120095861 | PERSONAL CUSTOMER CARE AGENT - Aggregating information includes configuring, by at least one processor, a user profile that indicates user preferences for aggregated information. The at least one processor monitors information sources including the World Wide Web, business websites of interest, and online social media, based on the user preferences. Data obtained from the information sources is presented, based on the monitoring, by the at least one processor, in accordance with a presentation format, as the aggregated information, based on the user preferences. The at least one processor triggers updating of the presented aggregated information based on a change to the data at least one of the information sources and a change to the user profile. | 04-19-2012 |

| 20080210269 | REMOVING UNWANTED FILM FROM WAFER EDGE REGION WITH REACTIVE GAS JET - Unwanted films can be eliminated by directing a stream of reactive gas(es) at reactive zone in an edge region of the wafer. The action of the reactive gas can be enhanced by heating the gas in a nozzle, immediately prior to the gas impinging on the wafer. The action of the reactive gas can also be enhanced by ultraviolet (UV) or infrared (IR) radiation directed at the reactive zone. The wafer is rotates so that the reactive zone traverses the entire edge region. Multiple gas/light delivery systems can cause gas and light to impinge on multiple reactive zones, both on the front side and on the back side of the wafer. | 09-04-2008 |
