Patent CA-2571254-A1 (CA)
Inventor: REDMAN BRIAN
IPC: H04M1/72454
Filed: 2006-12-15
Abstract: A communications device having a user configurable speakerphone feature is provided. A user may be provided with a plurality of selectable settings for configuring the operation of a microphone or the processing of speech. For example, a user may select settings to filter ambient noise for a cleaner sound or increase a microphone's sensitivity in a conference call environment. In one embodiment, the user may select a setting that changes a microphone level or microphone operating range. When the microphone detects speech, the speech may be processed in accordance with user selected processing settings. For example, a user may select settings to specify a gain control, a frequency response, or an activity threshold. Thus, a user may configure a speakerphone to improve sound quality on the receiving end.
Patent CA-2571329-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KIM TAE HYEON
IPC: G02B26/00
Filed: 2005-06-15
Abstract: This invention provides the two types of Discretely Controlled Micromirror (DCM), which can overcome disadvantages of the conventional electrostatic micromirrors. The first type micromirror is a Variable Support Discretely Controlled Micromirror (VSDCM), which has a larger displacement range than the conventional electrostatic micromirror. The displacement accuracy of the VSDCM  is better than that of the conventional electrostatic micromirror and the low driving voltage is compatible with IC components. The second type of DCM, the Segmented Electrode Discretely Controlled Micromirror (SEDCM) has same disadvantages with the conventional electrostatic micromirror. But the SEDCM  is compatible with known microelectronics technologies.

Title: Medical device interface system
Inventor: GHARIB JAMES E
IPC: F16M11/06
Filed: 1999-11-19
Abstract: An interface device secures an instrument to a docking station. A rail cam forms part of the instrument housing. The rail cam secures the instrument housing to a mounting rail mounted to a surface. The rail cam includes a cam base having a surface with the base mounted for pivotal movement relative the remainder of the instrument housing. The rail cam also includes two opposing arms near the periphery of the cam base. The arms extend substantially perpendicular relative the surface of the cam base with each arm having an arm base defining a lock surface. The arms are positioned on the cam base such that the distance between the two lock surfaces is substantially equal to the height of the mounting rail. The rail cam further includes a guiding portion at the top of each arm base for contacting the mounting rail during insertion of the rail cam onto the mounting rail and transferring the force of contact with the mounting rail to the cam base. This serves to induce rotation of the rail cam from a closed/lock position to a opened/receive position during which the rail cam receives the mounting rail. Subsequently removal of the force from the cam base allows rotation of the rail cam from the open/receive position to the closed/lock position during which the rail cam retains the mounting rail.
