Title: Head mounted multi-sensory audio input system
Inventor: SINCLAIR MICHAEL J
IPC: G06F40/00
Filed: 2004-07-07
Abstract: The present invention combines a conventional audio microphone with an additional speech sensor that provides a speech sensor signal based on an input. The speech sensor signal is generated based on an action undertaken by a speaker during speech, such as facial movement, bone vibration, throat vibration, throat impedance changes, etc. A speech detector component receives an input from the speech sensor and outputs a speech detection signal indicative of whether a user is speaking. The speech detector generates the speech detection signal based on the microphone signal and the speech sensor signal.

Ces conditions englobent les conditions d'application, notamment une quantité de capacité disponible pour gérer la charge qui sera placée sur le système par l'application. Ces conditions se réfèrent également aux conditions du système, à savoir reconnaître une limite du système d'un certain nombre d'applications que l'on exécute sur un système particulier. On peut utiliser des priorités respectives d'applications afin de déterminer si une application peu prioritaire peut être déplacée vers des ressources libres afin d'exécuter une application prioritaire.
Patent CA-2489059-A1 (CA)
Title: Control circuit for a dual directional direct current motor employing a single alternating current power source
Inventor: LATHROP TODD M
IPC: H02P7/00
Filed: 2004-12-01
Abstract: A control circuit operates a dual directional DC motor from an AC power source. A controller has first and second position indication inputs adapted to receive respective first and second position indications. The controller also has first and second direction outputs, which respectively energize one of two first relay coils having contacts outputting respective AC voltages responsive to the direction outputs. A full wave bridge rectifier receives the AC voltage and responsively outputs a DC voltage, which energizes a second relay coil. A contact thereof directs that voltage to two sets of first relay contacts, which are also responsive to the direction outputs, and which respectively provide a positive or negative DC voltage to the motor.  Another second relay coil contact provides a braking action to the motor responsive to removal of the DC voltage from the rectifier output following removal of the AC  voltage to the rectifier.

Abstract: A switchgear module is provided that is assembled from one or more molded housing portions to provide a gas-tight volume for the housing of electrical components. The switchgear modules include provisions for assembly of various combinations of switchgear modules into a variety of electrical circuit configurations while maintaining a gas seal of the switchgear modules. In a preferred arrangement, the switchgear module includes bus conductors that are integrally incorporated during the molding of the switchgear module housing and that are accessible from opposite sides of the module. Further, the switchgear module includes integrally molded features for providing access to make electrical interconnections between the bus conductors of adjacently positioned switchgear modules. Thus, the finally assembled and tested switchgear modules with pressurized internal volume may be configured to provide a variety of different electrical circuit combinations of the internal components and are also capable of being reconfigured as desired into different configurations or lineups without the loss of the seal of the interior volume of the switchgear modules. The switchgear module includes a complete internal and integral system to satisfy desirable operating practices to deenergize, test and ground the circuit before working thereon. Specifically, the switchgear module includes an integral indicator with test feature, a visible open gap in the circuit which is readily observable externally to the module, and a ground position for the internal switch to ground the circuit. In a preferred arrangement, an operating mechanism is internal to the module and controls the position of either a loadbreak switch or a disconnect switch between three operable positions, close, open, and ground. The operating mechanism is charged and operated by an operating train that is connected to an operator control.

Title: Seed-specific gene promoters and uses thereof
Inventor: QU LEQING
IPC: C12N15/82
Filed: 2004-10-29
Abstract: An objective of the present invention is to provide promoters comprising seed-specific promoter activity, and methods of expressing foreign proteins in seeds. The present inventors isolated the promoters of a number of genes that are expressed in rice seeds, constructed binary vectors in which each promoter is inserted upstream of the GUS reporter gene, and transformed rice using the Agrobacterium method. The inventors then used GUS expression level as an index to examine the site of expression, the expression pattern during seed maturation, and the level of expression in seeds for each promoter.      They thus discovered promoters with activity specific to a particular site in seeds, and with higher activity than constitutive promoters and known seed-specific promoters.

Inventor: MILLER JOHN S
IPC: H04M3/493
Filed: 2005-02-15
Abstract: In providing an information assistance service to a user, data retrieved from a user profile may be utilized not only to provide information, but also personalized services to the user. An operator may determine from the user profile user preferences pertaining to, for example, hotel accommodations, restaurant features, or vehicle features.  Default preference values may be assigned to different service features when a new user profile is created, which are subject to changes by the user. Various service features specified in a profile record may be grouped into a family based on an attribute, a habit or lifestyle of the user. The first time a user personally changes an existing preference value, or selects a new preference value for a service feature in a family, the preference values for all other service features in the same family are affected.
