Inventor: KAY CHARLES GARY
IPC: G01N1/24
Filed: 2005-02-21
Abstract: Air sampler with integrated airflow sensing. The air sampler according to at least some embodiments includes an air mover that is operable to move air over a sampling media. An integrated airflow sensor is in fluid communication with the air mover. The air mover operating speed can be adjusted, in example embodiments, by either a feedback control mechanism that is connected to the air mover and the integrated airflow sensor, by user input, or by a combination of the two. The feedback control mechanism adjusts the operating speed of the air mover in response to signaling from the integrated airflow sensor in order to maintain an actual airflow in accordance with a stored, target value. The feedback can, in at least some embodiments, compensate for obstructions, environmental variables, variations in the power supplied to the air mover, and the like.

Title: Point-based system and method for interacting with electronic program guide grid
Inventor: ALLPORT DAVID
IPC: G06F3/0487
Filed: 2003-09-11
Abstract: A method of interacting with Electronic Program Guide (EPG) data in a two-dimensional grid format, where one dimension (typically horizontal) s represents time and the other dimension (typically vertical) represents program source or channel. User input comprises navigation commands to move the selection of an "active" program either "up", "down", "left" or "right".  Such commands may cause the new active program to be another program corresponding to a grid cell that is already displayed, or they may cause the new active program to be another program corresponding to a cell not currently displayed in the EPG grid, which in turn causes the times or channels displayed in the grid to change. The invention provides a novel visual indication of an active point in time which forms the basis of a method and system for selecting different active programs during grid navigation.

Abstract: The current situation is such that it is difficult for drugs to reach posterior tissues of eyeball, such as choroid and retina, with the result that treating diseases in such regions is difficult. Thus, how to attain effective delivery of drugs is of importance. It has been found that effective delivery of drugs to posterior tissues of eyeball, such as choroid and retina, especially those wherein vascularization has occurred can be accomplished by systemic administration, especially intravenous administration of polymer micells having a drug incorporated therein. Further, it has been found that when a photosensitive substance is used as a drug and PDT is carried out, choroidal neo-vessels can be effectively choked so as to be useful for the treatment of age-related macular degeneration.
