Patent application number | Description | Published |
20120226993 | QUANTIFYING FRUSTRATION VIA A USER INTERFACE - Implementations and techniques for quantifying frustration via a user interface are generally disclosed. | 09-06-2012 |
20120326961 | GESTURE BASED USER INTERFACE FOR AUGMENTED REALITY - Technologies are generally described for systems and methods effective to provide a gesture keyboard that can be utilized with a virtual display. In an example, the method includes receiving sensory information associated with an object in proximity to, or in contact with, an input device including receiving at least one level of interaction differentiation detected from at least three levels of interaction differentiation, interpreting a command from the sensory information as a function of the at least one level of interaction differentiation, and outputting an action indication based on the command. | 12-27-2012 |
20140016245 | CAPACITOR WITH PARALLEL NANOTUBES - Technologies are generally described for a capacitor device that includes parallel nanotubes. Such a capacitor device may include two parallel electrodes, each of which includes an array of nanotubes that extends from the surface of the respective electrode towards the other electrode. The nanotubes can be substantially parallel to each other and substantially perpendicular to the electrode from which they extend. The space between the electrodes and the nanotubes can be filled with an electrolyte or dielectric material, for example, a solution of an electrolyte solute in a suitable solvent. Such a capacitor device can have high electrode surface area but can avoid pore effects, in comparison to high surface area porous electrodes which do not have interpenetrating electrodes. | 01-16-2014 |
20140059446 | QUANTIFYING FRUSTRATION VIA A USER INTERFACE - Implementations and techniques for quantifying frustration via a user interface are generally disclosed. | 02-27-2014 |
20140128974 | TUMID IMPLANT AND PUMP - Technologies related to tumid implants and pumps are generally described. In some examples, a tumid implant device may comprise an enclosed sack membrane adapted to fit between bones in a joint. Articulation of the joint may cause a first layer of the membrane to move through a first boundary section into a second layer of the membrane, while the second layer moves through a second boundary section into the first layer. A working fluid may be disposed inside the sack membrane, and a reservoir may optionally be coupled to the membrane via a gate. The working fluid may be expelled from the sack membrane into the reservoir, and may re-enter the sack membrane from the reservoir in response to changes in pressure in the joint. The working fluid may be conducted into the reservoir or sack membrane by a pump, and several artery pump designs are disclosed. | 05-08-2014 |
20140336653 | ARTICULATED BONE DRILL AND TAP - Technologies related to articulated bone drill and articulated bone tap apparatus are generally described. In some examples, articulated bone drills and taps may comprise bendable spines, movable bits, and flexible cylindrical tap or drill sleeves. The movable bit may be engaged at a distal end of the spine, and tensioning the spine and/or longitudinal displacement of at least one spine section with respect to at least one other spine section may be effective to steer the bit. The flexible cylindrical sleeve may be adapted to at least partially encase the spine, and the sleeve and the bit may be mechanically engaged so that rotation of the sleeve around the spine is effective to rotate the bit. | 11-13-2014 |

20160003471 | BURNER WITH A PERFORATED FLAME HOLDER SUPPORT STRUCTURE - A furnace has a fuel and oxidant source to create a flow of combustible fuel and oxidant mixture, a perforated flame holder on which the flow impinges, and a support structure to support the perforated flame holder in a position where it at least partially contains combustion of the fuel and oxidant mixture. The support structure mechanically engages with the interior of the furnace to support the perforated flame holder, which may be movable within the furnace via a mechanism to optimize combustion or reduce NOx. The support may contain fluid coolant. The perforated flame holder may be moved into and out of a combustion region. | 01-07-2016 |
