Abstract: A method for teaching golf based upon comparing a commonality of personal characteristics of a student and the personal characteristics of a group of high-level golfers is contemplated herein. Data mining is used to determine clusters of golfers with common physical characteristics and commonality of swings, based upon real-time measurements. A  canonical swing is developed for each desired cluster. Prospective students have their respective personal characteristics determined and used to place them in a cluster. The canonical swing of that cluster is assigned to the student. Subcomponents of performing a canonical swing are determined for instructional purposes. Biomechanical and Newtonian mechanics are used to measure the ball flight's sensitivity to each subcomponents' accurate performance and a scoring system is produced to provide a simple measure of students' state of mastering their respective canonical swings.

Inventor: CHANG KENNETH
IPC: A61B17/00
Filed: 2009-12-04
Abstract: An apparatus or device and a method of using such device for lifting, separating, or removing a first material (e.g., targeted tissue) from a second material (e.g., tissue of a body lumen in a patient) is presented. The method generally comprises placing the distal end of the device to a location that is proximate to the first material; deploying a first anchor member (e.g., T-an-chor) fastened to a suture strand into the first material; deploying a second anchor member (e.g., loop anchor) spaced away from the first anchor member, whereas the suture strand is slidably received by the second anchor member; applying tension to the suture strand; cutting the first material at a predetermined depth around the periphery of the first material; and separating or removing the first material along with the first anchor member. The tension applied to the suture strand maintains the first material in a raised position and/or allows the operator to manipulate the first material relative to the second material.
Patent CA-2746603-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SMARTT BRIAN ERIC
IPC: H04W4/20
Filed: 2011-07-15
Abstract: A mobile device can function as a probe to sense conditions on roads and other areas of interest.  A mobile device can have a GPS receiver to receive traces of GPS fixes. In a system with many such probes, it may be desirable to reduce an amount of GPS data reported by each device. To reduce such data reporting, a trace of GPS fixes is approximated by a selection of representative GPS fixes. Examples of how such a selection can be made are disclosed.  Parameters and other behaviour by each device functioning as a probe can be set by central controller; for example, probes can be turned on and off, reporting frequencies can be adjusted, and thresholds used in the approximation can be set.
Patent CA-2747157-A1 (CA)
Title: Traceability of agricultural and agri food products using rfid and gps technology
Inventor: GALLANT LUC O
IPC: G06Q50/02
Filed: 2011-07-21
Abstract: In this application for a patent, Traceability of Agricultural and Agri Food Products will be done using RFID and GPS technology. Current methods of traceability in Agricultural and Agri Foods are rudimentary and involve far too much manual intervention that can not only lead to human errors in information coding but also due to the burden of human involvement in the process, the current systems do not make it conducive for wide application and use. In using RFID and GPS  technologies, the traceability will be automated by bar coding or chip technology into each product that is harvested. All the data will be collected and stored in a database to follow each product from its origin farm, processing, transportation and delivery to the end consumer.   Using RFDI and GPS technology, we will capture the exact origin of each vegetable, fruit, poultry, beef, lamb, goat, etc. and their processed products through their transporter all the way to the end supermarket and consumer. This functionality is crucial in avoiding mass recalls of contaminated products, products which may have bacteria or even mad cow disease. By tracing each product individually, it will be easy for customers not only to know where their food is coming from, but the regulatory authorities will be able to identify within a matter of seconds where the product originated from. Even in processed goods, our Traceability System will allow the processors to identify the source and origin of each key ingredient they use in their production. In case of contamination, within a few seconds, the processor will know where the input products came from me. In case of a disease breakout of food poisoning, the authorities will know right away where that particular food item originated from and instead of banning a large amount of product off the market; they will be able to identify the batch and processing location where the product came from.   We will capture and store this data in an online accessible database to assist the Department of Agricultural and Agri Foods. Certainly, this will avoid a country wide ban on all products from a country just because one bad batch of a food product was discovered to have made some people sick. We will also make available this information via the Internet to end consumers who are interested to know the origin and handling of the food they consume.
