Patent CA-2633209-C (CA)
Inventor: GOVARI ASSAF
IPC: A61M25/095

Abstract: A method for position tracking includes placing an internal reference probe in a reference location within a heart of a subject, and collecting and processing first location coordinates of the internal reference probe during one or more respiratory cycles so as to define a range of the location coordinates corresponding to the reference location. An active device is inserted into the heart, and second location coordinates of the active device are collected. The first and second location coordinates are jointly processed so as to find relative location coordinates of the active device in a cardiac frame of reference. When a deviation of the first location coordinates from the range is detected, the relative location coordinates are corrected to compensate for displacement of the reference probe from the reference location.

Abstract: The present subject matter relates to a tail cap for portable lighting device such as a flashlight. The tail cap includes a locking mechanism which secures the tail cap on the flashlight as well as enables or disables the switch that activates, or deactivates the flashlight and/or its various lighting modes. The tail cap with the present multi-purpose locking mechanism allows the user to rapidly replace the battery, and ensures that the switch and contact pins return to the correct position, after the tail cap is reinserted. The combined use of a magnetic switch and O-ring gasket between the tail cap and main housing ensures complete waterproofing. The ambidextrous switch consisting of either a switch bar or dual push-button switch located on the rear wall of the tail cap allows ambidextrous use, even when the flashlight is mounted on a firearm such as a handgun, where the trigger guard would normally interfere with the operation of a switch mounted on the rear face of the flashlight.

Abstract: A retractable vehicle step is attachable to a rear portion of a vehicle or truck. The vehicle step facilitates access to a cargo hold of the vehicle. Advantageously, the vehicle step provides clearance space relative to a tailgate of the vehicle by displacing a stepping member of the vehicle step in a generally lateral direction. The vehicle step desirably has a covered and protected biasing mechanism for transitioning between retracted and extended positions of the stepping member. Another advantage is that the vehicle step is readily attachable to the vehicle using already existing connection members, thereby generally eliminating or mitigating the need for customized retrofitting and avoiding undesirable installation cost and time.

Abstract: A more comfortable seat is provided by detecting whether or not a person is in a seat. A seat has a heating element 1, a seat surface temperature detector 5 that is situated below a seat surface cover and that detects the temperature of the seat surface, and a seating determination unit 6 for determining whether or not a seat is occupied. A determination is made as to whether or not a seat is occupied according to an amount of temperature change detected by the seat surface temperature detector 5 for a predetermined period of time, whereby a determination can be readily made as to whether or not a person is seated. When no one is seated, application of power to the heating element 1 is stopped, and the like, which in turn contributes to energy saving and enhancement of fuel efficiency.

Abstract: In a method of processing mailpieces, signatures are derived from images of the mailpieces and serve as identifiers for the mailpieces in the sorting process. The signatures are grouped together into signature categories or graphical classes on the basis of a certain criterion of graphical similitude so as to compute a mean signature value for each graphical class. For each graphical class in question, activity of the mean signature value is analyzed for detecting significant activity of an information block in the digital images. The results of this activity detection are used for searching for a match, in a second sorting pass, between a current signature and signatures recorded in the first sorting pass.
