Title: Tour d'informations it, it infos tower
Inventor: SCOTT MICHEL
IPC: G09F9/00
Filed: 2007-10-31
Abstract: Dans un monde de plus en plus technologique, plus performant sur le plan personnel, s'informer est indispensable certes, mais à quel prix ? Comment faire pour s'informer tout en respectant notre environnement si fragile ? Car il y a un prix environnemental énorme à couper des arbres pour en faire des journaux, des revues, des dépliants publicitaires de toutes sortes qui ont une durée de vie extrêmement courte ! Ce prix se traduit par une réalité peu reluisante du fait que à ce jour, moins de 15% de la forêt boréale du Québec et de l'Ontario demeure intacte. Ce pourcentage doit augmenter si nous voulons que les générations futures puissent en jouir elles aussi. Gaspiller cette ressource naturelle pour en faire des produits de consommation courante doit cesser. Il était incontournable de trouver une solution qui mettrait un frein si petit soit-il à gaspiller nos forêts pour en faire des journaux, des revues et autres qui trop souvent ne sont même pas recyclés et se retrouvent dans des sites d'enfouissement. On paie pour acheter un bon livre d'histoire pour s'instruire, que l'on garde dans sa bibliothèque et que l'on passe à un ami, à sa soeur ou son frère, cela est un investissement profitable pour l'environnement, surtout si ce livre est fabriqué à partir de fibres post-consommation à 100%, puisque sa durée de vie est très longue. Par contre, quand on paie pour un journal ou une revue qui ont une durée de vie de quelques heures à peine, on paie pour couper des arbres ; en bout de piste, on paie énormément cher sur le plan environnemental. Alors comment s'informer sans imprimer sur papier toutes les nouvelles et toutes sortes d'informations qui nous sont utiles au quotidien mais qui pourraient ne pas être sur papier et surtout, comment utiliser nos ressources naturelles à bon escient, arrêter ce gaspillage inutile ? La solution est une tour d'information publique appelée IT (Info Tower).

Abstract: The synthesis of nanostructures uses a catalyst that may be in the form of a thin film layer on a substrate. Precursor compounds are selected for low boiling point or already exist in gaseous form. Nanostructures are capable of synthesis with a masked substrate to form patterned nanostructure growth. The techniques further include forming metal nanoparticles with sizes <10nm and with a narrow size distribution. Metallic nanoparticles have been shown to possess enhanced catalytic properties. The process may include plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition to deposit Ni, Pt, and/or Au nanoparticles onto the surfaces of SiO2, SiC, and GaN nanowires. A nanostructure sample can be coated with metallic nanoparticles in approximately 5-7 minutes. The size of the nanoparticles can be controlled through appropriate control of temperature and pressure during the process. The coated nanowires have application as gas and aqueous sensors and hydrogen storage.

Patent CA-2615228-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HUBERT JOSEPH
IPC: G09G3/36
Filed: 2005-04-11
Abstract: The present invention is a whiteboard method and system (100) having automated projection calibration that does not require user interaction. The method and system are accomplished by placing sensors (302) beneath a target surface and projecting a projected pattern to discover a geometric correspondence between the target surface and the projecting device. Optical sensors (32) are preferably employed to sense the presence of the projected pattern on the whiteboard. The input data is used with a mapping function or translation matrix for converting whiteboard coordinates to screen coordinates, which are then used for mapping the coordinates to a cursor position. When the geometry of the whiteboard surface is known, and the locations of the optical sensors within this geometry are known, the information about which projector pixels illuminate which sensor can be used to calibrate the projecting device with respect to the whiteboard.

Abstract: A method for operating a firing plant with at least one combustion chamber and at least one burner, especially a gas turbine, includes an operating characteristic for operating the combustion chamber close to the lean extinction limit defined as a burner group staging ratio (BGV Rich) . Pressure pulsations (Puls Actual) measured in the combustion chamber are processed by a filter device (2) and converted into corresponding signals (Puls Actual,Filter(t)) .cndot. An exceeding/falling short of at least one pulsation limiting value (Puls Limit) is monitered by a monitoring device (3) and adapts a pulsation reference value (Puls Ref) in dependence upon the monitoring.  The processed pressure pulsations (Puls Actual,Filter(t)) are then compared with the adapted pulsation reference value (Puls Ref,adapt) , and, from this, a correction value .increment.BGV is determined, by which the burner group staging ratio (BGV Rich) is corrected, and as a result operation of the firing plant close to the lean extinction limit may be realized.

Title: Method and system for portable breathing devices
Inventor: FREEMAN SCOTT
IPC: A62B7/00
Filed: 2007-01-16
Abstract: The present invention provides for a breathing device comprising a housing, oxygen source, water trap, activation mechanism, and breathing apparatus.  Operation of the activation mechanism may commence the production of a gas comprising oxygen. The generated oxygen may be bubbled through the water trap prior to being provided to the breathing apparatus attached to the user. Some embodiments may comprise two separate oxygen sources configured to provide distinct flow rates from one another. Other embodiments may comprise a rotating catalyst container configured to evenly and rapidly distribute catalyst upon commencement of the oxygen production. Still other embodiments may comprise a convoluted section of tubing to aid in altering the temperature of the produced oxygen gas. Another embodiment provides for a breathing device comprising a reservoir bag, oxygen source, scrubber, and activation device.  The oxygen source and an exit from the scrubber may be fluidly connected to the reservoir bag. The reservoir bag may be attached to a mouthpiece to provide inhalation air. Expired air may be exhaled through the mouthpiece and directed to an inlet for the scrubber. As a user breaths normally, expired air is scrubbed of undesired components, such as excess CO2. The scrubbed expired air is then mixed with generated oxygen, and delivered back to the user for inhalation. Additionally, the oxygen source and the scrubber may be replaced and/or replenished without interrupting or compromising a breathing cycle.
