Patent CA-2618252-A1 (CA)
Inventor: TWEDDELL RICHARD III
IPC: A61C19/06
Filed: 1998-08-04
Abstract: A delivery system for an oral care substance such as a tooth whitening substance includes a strip of material having a yield point and thickness such that the strip of material substantially conforms to a shape of a tooth and its adjoining soft tissue via permanent deformation under a pressure less than about 250,000 Pascals when the delivery system is placed thereagainst. The delivery system also includes an oral care substance applied to the strip of material such that when the delivery system is placed on a surface of the tooth and its adjoining soft tissue, the substance contacts the surface providing an active onto the surface. The substance also provides adhesive attachment between the strip of material and the surface to hold the delivery system in place for a sufficient time to allow the active to act upon the surface. The substance has an extrusion resistance sufficient to withstand a normal force applied to deform the strip of material so that the substance is not substantially extruded from between the strip of material and the surface during manual deformation of the strip of material.

Patent CA-2634261-A1 (CA)
Inventor: DAVIS PETER C
IPC: H04N5/76
Filed: 2008-06-06
Abstract: A Remote Area Monitoring System (RAMS) for detecting movement in a disallowed direction through a passageway (P). The RAMS monitors two volumetric spaces that are established by the system, both of which spaces are defined with respect to depth, width, and height. Both a warning zone and an alarm zone are defined for each space. The warning zone protects against inadvertent incursion into the protected spaces; while the alarm zone protects against intentional intrusions thereinto by movement in the disallowed direction. The RAMS automatically monitors both zones and does not require human vigilance to detect and warn of an incursion or intrusion. Human traffic, in both directions through the zones, is monitored; as well as the movement of objects. Movement of humans is detected using a sensor (16) employing machine vision technology including multiple overhead modules (12) linked together so to cover the passageway through which pedestrians travel. The zones covered by the modules overlap so to insure that there are no gaps in coverage. A sensor (18) employs near infrared (IR) imaging techniques to detect thrown or tossed objects. A workstation (20) includes a display (52) where alarm events are recorded and logged. The workstation also includes recording (34) and printing (36) equipment to aid in apprehension of an intruder.
