Title: Substrates for printing
IPC: G07D7/00
Filed: 2000-01-20
Abstract: A substrate for a security document such as a banknote, has physically formed therein identification features which are invisible to the eye but are repetitive so as to be detectable, after scanning, by computer. The features may be arranged in a 2D matrix and be spaced at regular intervals over the substrate. The physical features may be formed by embossing, surface treatment of lacquered papers, impregnation, laser treatment or watermarking. The features enable banknote verification and determination of denomination. Reproduction of the document by printing may be inhibited by subjecting the image data signals to an algorithm which serves as a second control to downgrade or inhibit reproduction.

Title: Improvements in or relating to physiological monitoring
IPC: G06F17/00
Filed: 2001-11-01
Abstract: Sleep or vigilance analysis is performed by use of a trained artificial neural network on electro-oculogram signals. Either a left side or right side EOG signal may be used, referenced to the nearby mastoid site, the nape of the neck or another quiet site. The use of the EOG signal allows REM sleep to be distinguished from light sleep. The use of only one channel of data means that only a small number of electrodes need to be used and thus the device can be provided as a self-contained compact portable unit. The device may also provide a sleep stage type sensitive alarm clock.

Patent GB-0606722-D0 (GB)
Title: Method and system for providing telecommunication service
Filed: 2006-04-04
Abstract: Providing a telecommunication service between two devices, comprising receiving a dialled number from the first device, checking whether the dialled number is subscribed to a service (VoIP), checking whether communication is possible based on data transfer in a computer network that meet minimum desired QoS (Quality of service). If the dialled number is subscribed to VoIP and there is minimum QoS, signalling to the subscriber using the computer network (VoIP). If the dialled number is not subscribed to VoIP or there is not a minimum desired QoS, trying to connect a regular (POTS/PSTN) call between the devices. The present invention enables users of telecommunication service to use the common Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) and dial a PSTN telephone number and automatically manages the call to be transferred by Voice Over IP (VoIP) if possible, otherwise it transfers the call via PSTN. However, the VoIP call still needs to have minimum quality. When the system sees the option to transfer the call through computer networks (e.g. internet) it would do so. When no computer network call is possible, or there is not a minimum desired QoS between the two end points - the system would automatically transfer the call through switched telecommunication system (PSTN). It makes VoIP transparent to users.

Patent GB-0625804-D0 (GB)
Title: A floor tool
Filed: 2006-12-22
Abstract: A floor tool for a cleaning appliance includes a head for engaging with a floor surface, a connecting arm pivotally connected to the head about a first axis and a supporting body pivotally connected to the head about a second axis. The head includes a suction opening which lies in a suction plane. The connecting arm includes an outlet in communication with the suction opening and adapted to connect to the cleaning appliance. The connecting arm is adapted and arranged to engage with the supporting body so that when, in use, the floor tool is pushed forwardly across the floor surface, the connecting arm applies a force to the head in a direction away from the floor surface. This allows the floor tool to be of reduced depth than was achievable hitherto while still being able to achieve the desired “rocking” motion to improve cleaning performance.

Title: Hand washing unit
IPC: E03C1/05
Filed: 1991-11-22
Abstract: A hand washing and rinsing unit which operates automatically without the need for the user to touch any part of the unit. When the user's hands are inserted into a wash basin (12), a proximity switch (30) actuates the system to switch on a supply of water through a supply line (18). After a predetermined time interval such as 5 to 8 seconds, a metered quantity of liquid soap from a supply (28) is dispensed onto the user's hands, and the supply of water continues to enable the soap to be washed off. The system incorporates an electronic monitoring system to record each use, this being triggered only when soap has been dispensed, so that it is not possible to have a wash recorded merely by wetting the hands for a few seconds.
