Abstract: The present invention relates to an instrument for endoscopic surgical instrument. The invention is characterized by a single control element whose orientation enables the distal part of the instrument to be articulated at any angle, and whose rotation (about its own axis) enables the orientation of this distal part about its lengthwise axis to be controlled. The position of this single control element, in front of the handle, is ergonomic and reflects the simple rotation controls existing in the rigid, straight-line instruments available on the market and habitually used by surgeons. In general, the endoscopic surgical instrument comprises a gripping and control handle, an elongated tubular part, a ball joint, a terminal or distal part, and a tool carried by the end of distal part. In the handle is a controller, for controlling the tool attached to the end of the distal part, and an assembly for controlling the angle and/or orientation of the distal part, or at least of the attached tool, relative to the elongated tubular part, by joint. The assembly that controls the angle and orientation of distal part is located in the front part of handle, and this assembly, through manipulation of a single operating element, enables both the angle of distal part and the orientation of this part, or at least its terminal tool, to be controlled.

Abstract: A color coded set of building blocks including a plurality of nesting blocks with diamond cross sections and at least one octahedron cap block (100). The blocks in each set are progressively sized so that when the individual blocks are stacked, they nest within each other to form a four-sided pyramid. The largest (108) of the diamond cross section blocks acts as the base of the pyramid while the top of the pyramid is capped with an octahedron cap block. The blocks are stored in a clear pedestal base (16). The pedestal (16) is also utilized as a design platform from which to build complex geometric designs. Each pedestal (16) has four flared legs that provide stability to the platform while designs are constructed vertically and horizontally within it. By using linking elements, the designs can also be used to join together a plurality of the pedestal bases. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A two-dimensional, high-density, damage-tolerant printed code suitable for encoding multiple biometrics and text for positive off-line identity verification comprises a horizontal header section; a vertical header section; a start pattern; a left row address pattern; an encoded data portion; a right two address pattern; and stop pattern. The horizontal header section encodes the number of bit areas in a transverse row of the encoded data portion; and the vertical header section encodes the vertical height of each bit area. The start and stop patterns of the code demarcate the lateral extent of the code (i.e., the beginning and end) from the adjacent quiet zone. Information is encoded into the ended information portion in bit areas that may be printed or blank. The information is encoded sequentially in the information portion from the top of the encoded information portion along each transverse row of bit areas to the next row of bit areas until the end of the encoded information portion. Error correction is applied to subunits of information from the encoded information portion by dividing the user messages and applying error correction to subunits of the user message. The two-dimensional, high-density, damage-tolerant printed code is suitable for printed on a conventionally sized ISO cord or other papers used in verifying identity. An ISO-sized cord or other identity paper bearing a two-dimensional, high-density, damage-tolerant printed code encoding multiple biometrics, e.g., encoded image likeness and multiple finger print templates, maybe used with an off-line integrated positive identity verification apparatus that is capable of decoding the image and fingerprint samples taken from an individual whose identity is sought to be verified.
