Abstract: The invention described herein is a system to create a reliable and tamper proof system to identify the owners of bicycles.      The system utilizes RFID tags integrated permanently into a bicycle that can be scanned electromagnetically to read data contained in the RFID tag. The RFID tag can be installed in the frame of the bicycle during manufacture or after market by approved retailers.      The device can not be destroyed in or removed from the bicycle without rendering its frame worthless. The RFID tag's unique code, new owner's pertinent information, and bicycle details are entered into a web enabled secure database at the point of sale.      Widespread adoption of this inventive idea will deter theft by making bicycles difficult to resell illegally and increase the rates of stolen bicycle recovery by police.

Patent CA-2450385-A1 (CA)
Inventor: NAGHIEH HAMID R
IPC: G01N21/64
Filed: 2002-06-19
Abstract: The optical imaging of two-dimensional solute zone arrays in electrophoresis gels is corrected for nonuniformities in the optical system such as those arising from the light source or from light dispersion underneath the gel. The correction is achieved by the use of a reference plate that responds to a light source uniformly along its length and width by being either uniformly light absorptive or uniformly light transmissive, or by emitting light upon excitation. Thus, any nonuniformities or deviations in the image of the reference plate arise only from nonuniformities or deviations within the optical system. Analogous corrections are made in other two-dimensional assay images, such as microarrays and microtiter plates.
