Abstract: A reminder apparatus and method are employed to by a dwelling occupant to provide a reminder concerning a pet's whereabouts. The apparatus features a carrier member that is adapted to hang from a door knob or handle, and a timer device is supported on the carrier member and operable to indicate expiration of an interval of time from a selected starting point. When the occupant lets the pet outside, they activate the countdown function of the timer and an alarm sounds when the countdown expires, providing a reminder to let the pet back inside the dwelling. Indications of an indoor and outdoor status are provided on opposing sides of the carrier member, so that reversing of the facing direction of the carrier member every time the pet transfers between the indoors and outdoors results in an ongoing accurate indication of whether the animal is inside or out.

Abstract: A system for contextualizing disorganized content (2a) captured from any live session (1) using external devices 30-xd to first detect & record 30-1 session activities (1d) being conducted by session attendees (1c). Activities (1d) become normalized tracked object data 2-otd for differentiation 30-2 into normalized session marks 3-pm denoting thresholded activity (1d) changes. Normalized marks 3-pm are integrated 30-3 into normalized events 4-pe using a "mark creates, start or stops event" model. Events 4-pe may be synthesized 30-4 via waveform convolution forming new combined events 40se, or used as containers to summarize the occurrences of marks 3-pm or other events 4-pe, the results of which create new summary marks 3-sm. Calculation marks 3-tm may also be synthesized 30-4 for sampling various session data at various session times. During content expression 30- 5 events 4-pe and 4-se can be automatically named and foldered creating index (2i) and organized content (2b).

Title: Injection molding method and injection molding machine
Inventor: SAKAMOTO ICHIRO
IPC: B29C45/03
Filed: 2011-06-02
Abstract: An object of the invention is to suppress the clogging of a gas vent, to simplify the maintenance of a mold device, and to improve the preform productivity. The invention may be applied to an injection molding machine including a split mold where a gas discharge portion is formed at parting surfaces. Further, the cross-section of a flow passage of the gas discharge portion is reduced at a predetermined timing after the start of the filling of a molding material. Since the cross-section of the flow passage of the gas discharge portion is reduced after a cavity space starts being filled with a molding material, it may be possible to make the amount of gas, which flows through the gas discharge portion, large until the cross-section of the flow passage of the gas discharge portion is reduced. It may be possible to prevent a foreign material from adhering to the inner peripheral surface of the gas discharge portion.

Abstract: A system and a method for delivering and metering a fixed volume of liquid, such as a liquid sterilant from a container into a vaporization system. The method for the delivering system includes the steps of sensing a requirement for additional liquid sterilant, determining whether the liquid sterilant to be added is acceptable for use, and delivering the liquid sterilant from a container into an accumulator. The method of metering the liquid sterilant into the vaporization system includes creating a vacuum in a chamber connected to the vaporizer and delivering the liquid sterilant into a vaporizer while continually sensing the flow of the delivery. The metering system maintains a slow, controlled flow in order to achieve efficient vaporization of the liquid sterilant and to provide accurate sensing of the gas/liquid interface.

Abstract: The technology provides various embodiments for gaze determination within a see-through, near-eye, mixed reality display device. In some embodiments, the boundaries of a gaze detection coordinate system can be determined from a spatial relationship between a user eye and gaze detection elements such as illuminators and at least one light sensor positioned on a support structure such as an eyeglasses frame. The gaze detection coordinate system allows for determination of a gaze vector from each eye based on data representing glints on the user eye, or a combination of image and glint data. A point of gaze may be determined in a three-dimensional user field of view including real and virtual objects. The spatial relationship between the gaze detection elements and the eye may be checked and may trigger a re-calibration of training data sets if the boundaries of the gaze detection coordinate system have changed.

Abstract: A dummy target is set in a direction which is the same direction as that of a detected target and at the position whose distance is double that of the detected target; a second-order wave target detection area is set in the predetermined area including the position of the dummy target; the target detected in the second-order wave target detection area is judged as being a second-order wave target; a interpolated target is set in the direction which is the same as that of the second-order wave target, and at the position whose distance is half that of the second-order wave target; a fundamental wave target detection region is set in the predetermined area including the position of the interpolated target; and the interpolated target is outputted as a fundamental wave target in the case where no fundamental wave target is detected in the fundamental wave target detection region. Even if the fundamental wave target to be detected is undetected within a close range, data on the fundamental wave target is estimated and outputted on the basis of the interpolated target calculated from the second-order wave target which continues being detected, as described above. This makes it possible to continue detecting the fundamental wave target without interruption. Accordingly, it is possible to provide an object detection method which enables an object in a close range to be detected securely by a radar device.
