Title: Forming a feature in a fibre reinforced plastic article
Inventor: FITCHETT KELLY
IPC: B29C51/14
Filed: 2013-03-18
Abstract: An article is moulded by putting a fibrous substrate 27b into a mould 33, the fibrous substrate including a matrix forming material; putting a further element of matrix forming material 29a into the mould; and applying pressure. Ideally the further element of matrix forming material is adjacent a recess 35 on the mould, having a similar volume, so that it forms a feature on the final article. The fibres may be natural or synthetic such as recycled carbon fibres and woven, or unidirectional in tape form in a preconsolidated sheet. The two matrix forming materials may be composed of the same polymer, and be provided in solid or semisolid form. The further matrix material may include fibres that are shorter than the other fibres. The pressure could be applied by a second mould part or a vacuum bag, and thus could force the further matrix forming material into the recess of the mould, flowing through the fibrous substrate therebetween. There may be multiple fibrous substrates with the further matrix material forming a core. Closing of a mould could cut the substrate to size forming the final article.

Title: A method and system of generating video data with captions
Inventor: PRICE ADAM JAMES
IPC: H04N21/234
Filed: 2013-10-23
Abstract: A method and system for augmenting a video with captions is presented. Caption sets for a video are generated along with timing tags, the captions associated with specific elements within the video. Preferably the video advertises a service or product, such as a vehicle, and the video may be standardised so a tag and caption will be timed with the same aspect of the product, e.g. a vehicle engine or interior etc. The caption data may be generated by querying a database(s) using search terms extracted from the video. For vehicle videos, a registration plate may be read by an automatic image analysis system (ANPR) and this ID used to gather make, model and specification data. The captions may be arranged in categorized sets. The tags may contain display duration, positioning data etc. for the captions. The captions may be overlaid on to the video images, or the captions may be displayed alongside the video. The video may be caused to pause when a caption is presented to allow the caption to be read.

Title: Vehicle driver identification
Inventor: ABOU-NASR MAHMOUD A
IPC: G06F3/01
Filed: 2015-07-21
Abstract: This is for a system that allows a computer in a car to identify the driver, based on their hand gestures. Upon recognising the driver, or user, of the car, the system can then implement that drivers particular settings and operating conditions. The system works by first collecting the gesture attributes, 205, identifying the gestures, 210 and then assigning them a user confidence number, 215. The system then asks if it recognises the user, 215. If it does then it will identify the user, 225, retrieve their preferences, 230, and finally automatically adjust the settings for that user 235. Finally, it will perform the action to control at least one vehicle component based on the gesture 250. The gestures include hand vectoring, wrist articulation, finger articulation and palm motions. The system may also determine whether the user is the driver or the passenger and override the passengers gestures in preference of the drivers.

IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2015-10-05
Abstract: A method and apparatus for protecting the release of personal data when browsing the internet. Network traffic emanating from a client device 1 is intercepted and analysed for elements indicative of website visitor tracking by tracking server 2. If tracking is detected then tracking fields with user specific data are anonymised by replacing the data with that drawn from a pool client database which contains tracking field data collected from other client devices 10/100. A server 3 holds the pool client database and a URL reputation database that maintains data of tracking URLs; reputable URLs may be added to a whitelist. Tracking fields may be a GET field, a cookie or an Etag value. Data from identified tracking fields may be added to a data pool in the pool client database; if no pool exists a new one is created. A warning message may be displayed to the user that traffic interception has occurred.
