Patent CA-2584939-A1 (CA)
Title: System, method and software for detecting signal generated by one or more sensors and translating those signals into auditory, visual or kinesthetic expression
Inventor: RIGLER JANE AGATHA
IPC: G10H7/00
Filed: 2007-04-13
Abstract: The present invention comprises an interactive system controlled by modifiable responsive sensors in which players can control auditory, visual and/or kinesthetic expression in real-time. As an auditory example of this system, one or more users can interact with accelerometers to trigger a variety of computer-generated sounds, MIDI  instruments and/or prerecorded sound files and combinations thereof. Sensor sensitivity is modifiable for each user so that even very small movements can control a sound. The system is flexible, permitting a user to act alone or with others, simultaneously, each user using one or more sensors, and each sensor controlling a separate sound. The sensors control elements of music: starting, stopping, generating higher and/or lower pitches, rhythmic complexity, looping patterns, restarting looping patterns, etc. This system allows users to record sounds for playback, to use pre-existing soundfiles, as well as to add unique soundfiles into the system.

Abstract: A method for regenerating a reformer to which fuel (12, 14) and an oxidant (16, 18, 20) are continuously fed, the feed rate of the fuel (12, 14) being reduced for the purpose of regeneration as compared to the feed rate in the continuous operation. According to the invention, the feed rate of the fuel (12, 14 is reduced during a plurality of successive regeneration intervals as compared to the feed rate in the continuous (normal) operation. The feed rate of the fuel (12, 14) between the successive intervals is higher than during them. A corresponding reformer has temperature sensors for implementing control of the fuel feed.

Inventor: PLESTID TREVOR
IPC: H04W88/06
Filed: 2008-01-24
Abstract: Devices and methods are provided for configuring multi-mode mobile stations. When the number of data sessions available to a multi-mode mobile station changes, the multi-mode mobile station sends information to configuration server sufficient to determine the capability of the network and identify the multi-mode mobile station. The number of data sessions available to a multi-mode mobile station may change for example due to the multi-mode mobile entering a network, changing radio access technologies (RAT) used in the network or changing radio network controllers having the same or a different respective number of data sessions. A configuration server receives the information sent by the multi-mode mobile station and selects configuration information for configuring the multi-mode mobile station to support services/applications that are subscribed to by a user of the multi-mode mobile station. In some embodiments the selection of configuration information is made at least in part based on the information received by the configuration server from the multi-mode mobile station. Once the configuration information has been selected, the configuration server sends the configuration information to the multi-mode mobile station. The multi-mode mobile station receives the multi-mode mobile station specific configuration information and automatically configures itself according to the configuration information.
