Title: Methods and systems for utilizing delayed dilution, mixing and filtering to provide customized varieties of fresh-brewed coffee on-demand
Inventor: GUTWEIN ROGER WILLIAM
IPC: G06Q30/00
Filed: 2000-08-14
Abstract: An improved system for providing an individually customized fresh brewed coffee beverage on demand by a customer, in a wide range of variety and strength. Said brewing system for making relatively large quantities of fresh brewed coffee beverages (in particular, customized as to desired variety, body, character and/or strengths), as chosen by multiple individual consumers just prior to their consumption. Said system is easy to use by the consumer or other individual (e.g., restaurant wait staff) obtaining the customized beverage. Further, maintenance of the equipment requires only a small amount of personal attention by the owner/operator of the equipment. A general object of the present invention is to utilize "delayed dilution" of a concentrated extract to provide a beverage brewing system which immediately (upon customer selection) provides selective dilution (based on individual consumer's selections) of a fresh-brewed coffee extract after the extract has been allowed to brew and held as an extract before dilution. It is also a general object of the present invention to utilize the undiluted extract to mix and dissolve other beverage compounds to make flavored coffees, cappuccinos, lattes, and the like. "Delayed mixing" and/or "delayed filtering" may also be utilized.

Title: Interactive method of presenting information in an image
Inventor: GUSTAFSSON TORBJOERN
IPC: G06T19/00
Filed: 2005-06-17
Abstract: The present invention relates to an interactive method of presenting information in an image to a user, who carries a head-mounted display device (2+5, 27), which presents an image of the surroundings (3, 9, 25). The method comprises that the user's head position and direction are established in relation to the surroundings and that a calculating device (7) establishes, based on this, which part of the surroundings is positioned in front of the user's head. Furthermore the calculating device establishes where in a hierarchical scheme the user is positioned as regards information about and performed operations concerning that part of the surroundings which is positioned in front of the user's head and, based on this, which information is to be presented to the user and presents this in the form of a virtual image which is mixed with the real image. The user studies the information and, where required, performs the current operations. A central part of the image is then defined and in the area outside this there are fields and/or objects adapted to be included in a transfer of messages from the user to the calculating device. The user's direction of gaze at the image is then established and it is marked when the point of fixation (24) in the image is in a field or an object. Finally, the user informs the calculating device that he/she has received the information and, respectively, performed the current operations by looking at fields/objects (22, 23).

Title: A method for the carry-over protection in dna amplification systems targeting methylation analysis achieved by a modified pre-treatment of nucleic acids
Inventor: DIETRICH DIMO
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2005-10-11
Abstract: Disclosed is a method for the specific amplification of template DNA in the presence of potentially contaminating PCR products from previous amplification experiments. In the first step DNA is contacted with a bisulfite solution, which reacts with unmethylated cytosines but not with methylated cytosines, by sulfonating them. This results in deamination of the cytosine whereby sulfonated uracil is generated. Such sulfonation protects the template nucleic acid from being a target for the enzyme UNG. Any contaminating DNA, which contains unprotected unsulfonated or desulfonated uracils is degraded enzymatically while UNG is active. After UNG treatment and inactivation, the sulfonated uracil bases are converted into uracil by desulfonation. This method is useful for decontamination of nucleic acid samples, or rather for avoiding amplification of 'carry over products' in particular in the context of DNA methylation analysis. Furthermore it can be used as a simplified method of bisulfite treatment in gerneral.
Patent CA-2583595-A1 (CA)
Title: Remote estimation of round-trip delays in a data network
Inventor: NEIDHARDT ARNOLD L
IPC: H04J3/14
Filed: 2005-10-27
Abstract: Disclosed is a technique for data network congestion diagnosis using remote estimation of round-trip delays. A monitoring node (110) transmits test messages between network nodes and measures the transit times between when the test messages are transmitted from, and when they return to, the monitoring node. A path delay between network nodes is determined based on the measured time delays. The techniques for determining network path delay are also utilized in conjunction with a three phase test procedure for diagnosing network congestion problems. Due to various network topologies and routing tables, certain confirmatory checks may be required to determine whether the procedures of the first or second phase test procedures are appropriate for particular path segments. Further, queuing delays may be determined by subtracting traffic independent delays from the measured transit times of the test messages, and such queuing delays may be used to determine the path delays. Such traffic independent delays may be determined during periods of low network traffic.

Patent CA-2601833-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SIGURGEIRSSON JON VIDAR
IPC: B07C5/32
Filed: 2006-04-04
Abstract: An apparatus for grading and batching of articles is proposed. The apparatus consists of an in-feed station (1) for grading of the articles into multiple "quality classes". The articles of each of the classes are weighted by one of multiple weighing means (2) provided. The ability to attach multiple electronic tags or labels to each of the articles makes it possible to keep track of each of the articles and allocate them according to class and weight tags into the correct batching buffer (5). A vertically oriented carousel conveyor (3) transfers the articles from the weighing means using plurality of transport buckets (4) which are suspended from the carousel support means using pivoting mechanism such that the transport buckets maintain substantially the same position as they are transported by the carousel to batching buffers (6) located inside the carousel (3). When there is a complete batch in the batching buffer the batch is transported to a collection buffer via batch transport buffer (7) formed by a group of adjacent transport buckets (14) on the carousel conveyor as they travel towards the in-feed station. Thus the transport buckets are used twice (4) : First, to transport individual articles to the batching buffers and the second time, to transport an entire batch to the collecting buffer (18). A computer system is used to control the conveying means (3), the transport buckets, the batching buffer (5), the batch transfer buffer (7), the collecting buffer (8), and to keep track of the different electronic tags.
