20090202116 | METHOD FOR MEASURING THE CONCENTRATION OF A SUBSTANCE USING ADVANCED IMAGE PROCESSING TECHNIQUES - A method and system for non-invasively measuring the concentration of an optically-active substance in a subject are provided. The system includes a light source adapted to transmit light towards a subject or object having a concentration of an optically-active substance, a polarizer positioned between the light source and the subject, an image capturing device, and a processor. The image capturing device is positioned to receive light reflected from the subject and create a measured image therefrom. The measured image defines measured light intensity data. The processor is configured to calculate a concentration of the optically-active substance based on a selected portion of the measured light intensity data. | 08-13-2009 |

20160085331 | Method and Apparatus for Physical Activity Tracking - In one aspect of the teachings herein, a physical activity tracking system includes a wearable electronic device that uses dual touch points for detecting control inputs by a user. Processing within the device complements the dual touch point interface by requiring simultaneous touch detections to register user inputs to the device, and by mapping dual-touch detections of different duration to different control actions. Use of the dual-touch arrangement and the associated processing provides a number of advantages, including intuitive operation and minimization of accidental activations by the user. Other advantages of the touch interface include the ability to seat or mount the device in a variety of carriers, such as bracelets, etc., that complement wearability of the device, while still allowing for convenient charging. | 03-24-2016 |

20100224714 | CORD ADJUSTMENT DEVICE - The present invention provides a cord adjustment device for adjusting and managing the additional length of the cord of earphones when being used with portable multi-media devices such as a music player. The cord adjustment device is a spool shaped piece comprising magnetic material and further comprising a mating member which has a magnetic attraction to the spool member. The cord adjustment device is attached to clothing by placing the mating member on the reverse side of the clothing and the spool member on the outer side of the clothing. The cord adjustment device may also comprise a microphone, transmitter/receiver or an audio player. | 09-09-2010 |
20130016869 | Type of Headphone DeviceAANM Winther; IsakAACI ReykjavikAACO ISAAGP Winther; Isak Reykjavik IS - The present invention relates to headphones for multimedia devices, and more specifically the present invention is adapted to allow more than one user to use the same headphone jack. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a headphone which enables more than one person to use the same multimedia device at the same time without having to use a separate splitter device. This allows the next person to connect to another persons headphone/earphone plug to jointly enjoy the multimedia content. | 01-17-2013 |

20120298568 | BARREL-TYPE FISH/PARTICLE SCREEN WITH ADJUSTABLE FLOW DISTRIBUTION AND DEBRIS REMOVAL - Debris adhering to the outer surface of a barrel-type fish screen is cleared by air bursts from a series of perforated air pipes positioned inside the outer foraminous shell of the screen, the perforations being holes with axes at an acute angle to the screen radius for efficient use of the air. Separately, the conical water collection manifold mounted inside the shell is open at its narrow end, with a valve mounted to that open end to control the opening. The opening prevents reduced water inflow at that end of the manifold, and the valve adjusts the access of the surrounding water to the opening, thereby allowing the manifold to be tuned to more closely approach a uniform distribution of axial water flow along the length of the collection manifold for different ambient conditions. Webs joining the air pipes to the collection manifold are also included in certain embodiments of the invention to support increased lengths of the entire apparatus without loss of structural integrity, including support for the foraminous shell. | 11-29-2012 |

20090060900 | Methods for Screening Compounds That Modulate Lipid Metabolism - Drug screening assays useful in the discovery of pharmaceutically active compounds for use in the treatment of diseases involving abnormal lipid metabolism including diabetic neuropathy are taught. In particular, the control region of delta-5-desaturase gene is taught as a target for the drug screening methods, which serve to identify nucleotides, proteins, compounds and/or other pharmacological agents, which modulate the activity of desaturase enzymes or regulate the level of expression of the desaturase genes. Cell-based and cell lysate assays are taught for detecting components that interact with the desaturase enzymes and modify fatty acid profiles. In addition, cell-based and cell lysate assays are used to identify functional and regulatory elements controlling expression of the desaturase genes as well as to screen for components that modulate the transcriptional activity of the desaturase genes. Also taught is the gene for rat delta-5-desaturase. | 03-05-2009 |
