Title: Ct-analyst: a software system for zero latency, high fidelity emergency assessment of airborne chemical, biological, radiological (cbr) threats
Inventor: SCOTT ROBERT J
IPC: G06F19/00
Filed: 2004-01-29
Abstract: CT-Analyst (100, 101) provides accurate graphical predictions of Chemical Biological Radiological (CBR) threats in urban settings. CT-Analyst uses the best 3D computations possible or ground truth data prepared well ahead of time, capturing their salient results in a highly compressed database to be manipulated, and displayed. All internal calculations and results from CT-Analyst are produced and displayed virtually instantaneously. This capability is then immediately available to first-responders and emergency managers in a visual interactive, easy-to-comprehend form. CT-Analyst can support emergency response to both civilian and military CBR threats as well as the control and integration of sensor networks. On site and headquarters staff would use this tool for data fusion to give a minute-by-minute situation assessment including projected escape paths. It could also be used for war games, virtual reality training, site defense planning, and sensor network optimization. Sensor readings (301) can be used to backtrack (303) upwind and locate an unknown source and the downwind "Footprint" of the expanding plume can be determined.  The implementation also has sensor fusion capabilities with a "point-and-click" controller (100) to select, morph, and manipulate user-constructed or sensor-driven CBR scenarios directly.

Inventor: WARD MICHELLE GRACE
IPC: C09D7/80
Filed: 2004-05-06
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method and device that use spectral measurements of the color of a target coating on a substrate, such as auto body being matched. The method utilizes pigment mixture models to produce a matched coating composition that when applied as a coating matches in appearance with that of the target coating, while also providing other desired coating properties, such as durability, gloss and adhesion. Various colorant combinations are analyzed to produce approximate spectral curves that substantially match the spectral curve of the target color. A colorant optimization function is then used to identify the optimum formula. This function utilizes acceptability factors, such as closeness of match based on a color tolerance formula, metamerism indices, shape of spectral curves, cost, and pigment durability. Each factor is weighted according to the specific end-use of the composition. The method of the present invention is well suited for producing automotive refinish paints used in automotive refinish applications wherein the undamaged portion of the autobody is color matched to produce a matched refinish paint that can be then applied over a repaired portion of autobody.

Title: Liquid crystal display device
Inventor: NAGATA MITSUTOSHI
IPC: G09G3/36
Filed: 2006-01-05
Abstract: A moving image portion that indicates a moving object moving not less than a given movement amount and a still image portion other than the moving image portion are distinguished with respect to a video signal. Video display data for displaying the moving image portion is generated by repeatedly using the same video signal by repetition times based on temperature of a liquid crystal panel. Movement display data for displaying movement positions of the moving image portion is then generated based on a video signal obtained after the video signal used for displaying the moving image portion and is combined with the video display data. This achieves an effect similar to that obtained by decreasing a field frequency and decreases a "tail trail" phenomenon of the moving object. Furthermore, the movement display data enables recognition of the almost actual position of the moving object.

Abstract: A system. automatically monitors playing and wagering of a game, including the gaming habits of players and the performance of employees. A card deck reader automatically reads a symbol from each card in a deck of cards before a first one of the cards is removed.  The symbol identifies a respective rank and suit of the card. A chip tray reader automatically images the contents of a chip tray, to periodically determine the number and value of chips in the chip tray, and to compare the change in contents of the chip tray to the outcome of game play for verifying that the proper amounts have been paid out and collected. A table monitor automatically images the activity occurring at a gaming table. Periodic comparison of the images identify wagering, as well as the appearance, removal and position of cards and other game objects on the gaming table. A drop box automatically verifies an amount and authenticity of a deposit and reconciles the deposit with a change in the contents of the chip tray. The drop box employs a variety of lighting and resolutions to image selected portions of the deposited item. The system detects prohibited playing and wagering patterns, and determines the win/loss percentage of the players and the dealer, as well as a number of other statistically relevant measures. The measurements provide automated security and real-time accounting. ~The measurements also provide a basis for automatically allocating complimentary player benefits.
