IPC: G06F3/14
Filed: 2010-02-23
Abstract: A graphical display is provided to allow a user to dynamically customize the location, appearance, priority, and arrangement of virtual gauges displayed on an instrument panel of a vehicle. A user can select a virtual gauge and move to a desired location in the instrument panel. The selected virtual gauge is assigned a highest priority level, which may result in a hierarchical structure including other virtual gauges. In one aspect, the selected virtual gauge may appear more prominently that other virtual gauges in the hierarchical structure and thus is readily accessed by a user without having to navigate through multiple layers of other virtual gauges. When an adverse vehicle condition is identified, a virtual gauge associated with the condition is assigned an urgent priority level that generally trumps any priority levels assigned to other virtual gauges on the display.

Patent CA-2696825-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MONESTIME RONALD
IPC: F03G7/00
Filed: 2010-03-18
Abstract: The invention is provides a way to conserve and recycle most of the energy that was input in an electrical motor thus significantly reducing the amount of independent and original sustaining source energy needed to maintain peak power output. This is done through a radially configured electric motor of ideally 6-stack radial blocs which uses solenoids as the powering pistons. Using several possible methods and mechanism, the powering electricity in each solenoid pulse is inductively recovered and recycled either directly or after being stored in power capacitors, and thus very little new input energy is required in the next power stroke.  Various facilitating subcomponents are used to achieve maximal performance. This motor can be applied to any energy requirement application to provide the power for electricity generation as well as direct mechanical power applications.
