Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090216376Group Elevator Scheduling With Advanced Traffic Information - A near-optimal scheduling method for a group of elevators uses advanced traffic information. More particularly, advanced traffic information is used to define a snapshot problem in which the objective is to improve performance for customers. To solve the snapshot problem, the objective function is transformed into a form to facilitate the decomposition of the problem into individual car subproblems. The subproblems are independently solved using a two-level formulation, with passenger to car assignment at the higher level, and the dispatching of individual cars at the lower level. Near-optimal passenger selection and individual car routing are obtained. The individual cars are then coordinated through an iterative process to arrive at a group control solution that achieves a near-optimal result for passengers.08-27-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110103733NANOMECHANICAL PHOTONIC DEVICES - The present invention relates to devices which operate on gradient optical forces, in particular, nanoscale mechanical devices which are actuable by gradient optical forces. Such a device comprises a waveguide and a dielectric body, with at least a portion of the waveguide separated from the dielectric body at a distance which permits evanescent coupling of an optical mode within the waveguide to the dielectric body. This results in an optical force which acts on the waveguide and which can be exploited in a variety of devices on a nano scale, including all-optical switches, photonic transistors, tuneable couplers, optical attenuators and tuneable phase shifters. The waveguide can also comprise a gap such that two cantilever bridges are formed.05-05-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20130100430LITHOGRAPHIC APPARATUS AND DEVICE MANUFACTURING METHOD - An apparatus and a method to hold a patterning device configured to impart a beam of radiation with a pattern in its cross-section. The apparatus includes a base configured to support the patterning device and an inner cover couplable to the base. The inner cover includes a restraining mechanism that, upon an application of a force external to the inner cover, is configured to provide an in-plane force to the patterning device to restrain movement of the patterning device, the in-plane force being substantially parallel to a patterning surface of the patterning device.04-25-2013

20080272902Nuisance Alarm Filter - An alarm filter (11-06-2008
20090040303Automatic video quality monitoring for surveillance cameras - A system for automatically determining video quality receives video input from one or more surveillance cameras (02-12-2009
20090057068Video Aided System for Elevator Control - An elevator control system (03-05-2009
20090086022Method and device for consistent region of interest - The present invention describes a system and method for surveillance cameras that maintain proper mapping of a mapped region of interest with an imaged region of interest based on feedback received regarding the current orientation of a surveillance camera. The system or method first determines the location of the imaged region of interest within the surveillance camera's imaged current field of view based on mechanical or imaged feedback, or a combination of both. The system or method then remaps the mapped region of interest within the surveillance camera's imaged current field of view such that the mapped region of interest is coextensive with the imaged region of interest.04-02-2009
