| 20090315836 | Method and Apparatus for Executing a Feature Using a Tactile Cue - In accordance with an example embodiment of the present invention, an electronic device is configured to provide a tactile cue associated with a feature. The electronic device is also configured to identify one or more user actuations. After identifying one or more user actuations, the electronic device is configured to execute the feature. | 12-24-2009 |
| 20090319893 | Method and Apparatus for Assigning a Tactile Cue - In accordance with an example embodiment of the present invention, an electronic device is configured to allow selection of a feature to be associated with a tactile cue. The electronic device is also configured to detect an action for the selection of the feature. The electronic device is configured to assign the action to the feature. | 12-24-2009 |
| 20110148774 | Handling Tactile Inputs - Apparatus includes at least one processor configured, under the control of machine-readable code: to receive from a touch sensitive transducer signals indicative of a detected dynamic tactile input incident on the touch sensitive transducer; to determine based on the signals received from the touch sensitive transducer a direction of an initial movement of a detected dynamic tactile input; and to provide control signals for causing an indicator, the indicator being for indicating to a user a currently highlighted one of an array of images displayed on a display panel, to be moved in a direction corresponding to the direction of the initial movement from a first image of the array of images to a second image of the array of images, the second image directly neighboring the first image, said indicator being moveable from a currently highlighted image to images directly neighboring the currently highlighted image. | 06-23-2011 |

| 20110283809 | MULTIPHASE FLOWMETER WITH BATCH SEPARATION - A process fluid flow system is provided having an input, an output, and a plurality of fluid circuits disposed between the input and output. At least one valve is disposed to selectably cause process fluid to flow through either a first circuit of the plurality of circuits, or a second circuit of the plurality of circuits. Process fluid flows through the first circuit during normal production, and through the second circuit during process fluid sequestration. A process fluid flow measurement device is operably interposed between the input and output and configured to measure total flow through the system. A separator is disposed in the second circuit and is arranged to allow the process fluid to separate gravitationally over time into immiscible components of the process fluid, the separator having a known internal volume. A guided wave radar level measurement device is preferably disposed to measure heights of interfaces within the separator. A controller is coupled to at least one valve, the process fluid flow measurement system, and the guided wave radar level measurement device. The controller is configured to combine total process fluid flow information from the process fluid flow measurement device with measured height information from the guided wave level measurement device to provide fractional flow rates for at least one immiscible component of the process fluid. | 11-24-2011 |

| 20090314623 | DETECTION OF DISTILLATION COLUMN FLOODING - A method comprises sensing a differential pressure signal, filtering the differential pressure signal, generating a flooding indicator as a function of the filtered differential pressure signal, and indicating the onset of flooding. The differential pressure signal is sensed along a distillation flow path. The filtered differential pressure signal is responsive to a phase inversion along the flow path, and the flooding indicator is responsive to an onset of a flooding condition, based on the phase inversion. The onset of the flooding condition is indicated based on a change in the flooding indicator. | 12-24-2009 |
