20090168974 | VEHICLE EMERGENCY CALL HANDLING AND ROUTING TO PSAPS - A method of facilitating emergency calls from a vehicle includes receiving a call, transmitting data from a vehicle telematics unit to a call center, obtaining the location of the vehicle at the call center, determining at the call center that emergency help is needed, accessing an emergency routing database and, using the vehicle location, determining a preferred public safety answering point (PSAP), obtaining from the emergency routing database emergency contact information associated with the preferred PSAP, and establishing a three-way conference call between the call center, the vehicle telematics unit, and the preferred PSAP utilizing voice over internet protocol (VoIP). Data such as vehicle location can be transmitted to the PSAP electronically during the forwarded call. | 07-02-2009 |
20100219944 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ESTIMATING AN EMERGENCY LEVEL OF A VEHICULAR ACCIDENT - A method for estimating an emergency level of a vehicular accident includes detecting an event associated with the vehicular accident, initiating a video recording of an interior and/or exterior of the vehicle in response to the detecting of the event, uploading the video recording on a remotely accessible page, and reviewing the uploaded video recording to estimate the emergency level of the vehicular accident. Also disclosed herein is a system for accomplishing the same. | 09-02-2010 |

20090251531 | CODING SCHEME FOR DIGITAL VIDEO SIGNALS AND AN IMAGE ARCHITECTURE USING THE SAME - Video signals in a video stream are encoded by inserting reference signals in the video stream such that the encoded video stream carry both reference signals and video signals being coded. In the decoding stage, reference images generated from the reference signals are detected and used for identifying the encoded video signals based upon the profiles of the detected reference images. An imaging architecture capable of using the coding scheme comprises a shutter that can be implemented as a dual-processor configuration. | 10-08-2009 |

20120123485 | BONE IMPLANT AND SYSTEMS THAT CONTROLLABLY RELEASES SILVER - Silver and/or zinc ion releasing implants, systems and method of operating, inserting and activating/inactivating them are described. In some variations the implant is configured as a bone implant that includes a bone-screw or intramedullary rod like body configured to receive a treatment cartridge having a plurality of ion-releasing members configured as an anode that can controllably engage with a catheter to turn galvanic release of ions on/off as desired. These devices may be configured to release silver ions (and/or zinc ions) above a predetermined level for a predetermined period of time and may maintain a concentration of ions over a relatively large volume of tissue. The ion-releasing members may be configured to reduce or prevent implant movement. | 05-17-2012 |

20080229720 | Method and Apparatus for Monitoring the Restriction Level of a Vehicular Air Filter Element - A process is provided for monitoring the filter restriction level of a filter element. The filter element is utilized by an air induction system deployed on a vehicle that includes a mass air flow sensor, a manifold pressure sensor, and a throttle position sensor. The process includes receiving (i) throttle position from the throttle position sensor, (ii) mass flow rate from the mass air flow sensor, and (iii) manifold pressure from the manifold pressure sensor. A reference pressure is determined from the received mass flow rate and the received throttle position, a pressure differential is established between the reference pressure and the received manifold pressure, and a filter restriction level is identified from the established pressure differential and the received mass flow rate. | 09-25-2008 |
20110238331 | METHODS FOR DETERMINING A REMAINING USEFUL LIFE OF AN AIR FILTER - A method is provided herein for determining a remaining useful life of an air filter. The method includes, but is not limited to, measuring a first airflow rate and a first air pressure (P | 09-29-2011 |
