IPC: F21V33/00
Filed: 2002-11-07
Abstract: Lighted reading glasses are provided to enable clear reading of normal sized text to occur when the reading material is held at usual distances from the reader in poorly lit locations. The lighted glasses have high intensity lights, such as in the form of LEDs, housed in light modules from which a blinder extends to minimize glare from stray light reflected or refracted by the lens into a wearer's eye. The blinder extension is configured such that it extends outwards in the direction of the LED and is optimally sized such that the blinder extension blocks the incident rays of light without distracting the wearer or interfering with the light projected for illuminating a reading surface. An advantage of such a light module is that reducing glare also reduces eye-fatigue that a wearer may suffer when wearing eyeglasses with the light modules for extended periods of use.

Title: Method for transmitting messages in ad hoc networks
Inventor: GUNER REFI-TUGRUL
IPC: H04W74/08
Filed: 2014-08-28
Abstract: A method for the wireless transmission and reception of messages in an asynchronous ad hoc network having a plurality of network nodes. A first network node periodically transmits messages with a predefined period length.

The time intervals are subdivided into at least two time slots each. The second node calculates an occupancy for each time slot of the first time interval on the basis of the number of messages of one or more other network nodes received in this time slot; identifies the time slot having the lowest occupancy; and transmits at least one message in a time slot of the second time interval that corresponds to the identified time slot.

Abstract: A system and method are presented for real-time speech analytics in the speech analytics field. Real time audio is fed along with a keyword model, into a recognition engine. The recognition engine computes the probability of the audio stream data matching keywords in the keyword model. The probability is compared to a threshold where the system determines if the probability is indicative of whether or not the keyword has been spotted. Empirical metrics are computed and any false alarms are identified and rejected. The keyword may be reported as found when it is deemed not to be a false alarm and passes the threshold for detection.
