Title: Systems and methods for optical media modification
Inventor: HART JOHN J III
IPC: G11B23/28
Filed: 2004-02-05
Granted: 2014-06-17
Abstract: Theft, distribution, and piracy of digital content on optical media (software, video, audio, e-books, any content of any kind that is digitally stored and distributed) is often accomplished by copying it directly to another disc using commonly available copy tools and recordable optical media, or the copying of media to another mass manufactured disc. Methods which cause the copy process to become lengthy and inconvenient, or which produce copies that are significantly measurably different from the original and therefore be recognizable as copies, may deter or prevent an unauthorized individual from making copies. In addition, methods which generate an intended slow-down in the read process of the media can be used to authenticate the media at run time. This offers significant advantages to content creators who wish to protect their products.

Title: Etalonnage des detecteurs de fumee
Inventor: MI ZHEXIN
IPC: G08B29/20
Filed: 2005-06-24
Granted: 2013-08-13
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé d'étalonnage de détecteur de fumée consistant à régler la sensibilité du détecteur de fumée afin d'obtenir une réponse prédéterminée constante à l'intérieur de la plage de fonctionnement prévue. La sensibilité est généralement constante pour tous les détecteurs, et une valeur de décalage indépendante est définie pour chaque détecteur. Cette valeur de décalage correspond pour l'essentiel au signal produit par le détecteur dans une atmosphère pure. Pour déterminer la sensibilité du détecteur de fumée, on mesure sa réponse avec différents niveaux d'obscurcissement, puis on modifie de manière appropriée la sortie de la source lumineuse du détecteur. Ce processus est répété jusqu'à ce que la sensibilité désirée soit atteinte. La valeur de décalage est ensuite mesurée ou étalonnée, et mémorisée dans le détecteur de fumée afin d'être utilisée pour définir les valeurs d'alarme.
