Abstract: A method implemented on a mobile device that includes speech recognition functionality involves: receiving an utterance from a user of the mobile device, the utterance including a spoken search request; recognizing that the utterance includes a spoken search request; sending a representation of the spoken search request to a remote server over a wireless data connection; receiving search results over the wireless data connection that are responsive to the search request; storing the results on the mobile device; receiving a subsequent search request; performing a subsequent search responsive to the subsequent search request to generate subsequent search results, the subsequent search including searching the stored search results; and presenting the subsequent results on the mobile device. The method also involves indexing the stored results according to the user's search request, enhancing the device's ability to recognize frequently requested searches, and pre-loading the device with results corresponding to certain frequently requested searches.

Abstract: This Hand-Held Insect Eliminator is a device comprising two flaps of optimal size and shape, which are connected at one end by a hinge. Intelligently designed integrated finger housings at the hinged end allow the device to be easily opened and snapped shut by a wide variety of hand and finger sizes. The device can be used on many types of insects, whether flying, hanging, crawling, or at rest. It can be operated in mid-air, against a wall, ceiling, or directly against a surface, or just above a surface, depending on the type and location of the insect. The device incorporates a unique containment grid which allows the elimination to be done cleanly.

Abstract: A method implemented on a mobile device that includes speech recognition functionality involves: receiving an utterance that includes a search request from a user of the device; recognizing that the utterance includes a search request; sending a representation of the search request to a remote server over a wireless data connection; receiving information over the wireless data connection that is responsive to the search request; presenting the information on the mobile device; receiving an input from the user selecting an item present in the received information, the item identifying a remote resource; using the selected item to connect to the remote resource, the connection to the remote resource not involving the remote server; and sending to the remote server an indication that a connection was made to the resource identified by the selected item. The method further involves storing a log of the user's connection to remote resources and sending the log to the server.

Abstract: A safety light is provided which is removably securable to a marine safety vest. Marine safety vests commonly include a back panel and two front panels, each of which have a first side and a second side and at least one slot formed therein. The panels are connected by straps which are threaded through the slots. The safety light includes a lamp which is pivotally mounted to an outer surface of a first plate. A threaded shaft extends from the inner surface of the plate to extend through a slot of a front panel of a vest. A battery pack or other energy source is provided to power the lamp. A securing member is provided to be placed against the inner surface of the front panel and includes an internally threaded boss which receives the shaft of the first plate to secure the safety light to the vest.

Abstract: A method implemented on a mobile device that includes speech recognition functionality involves presenting to a user of the mobile device a voice-control interface that supports two types of commands at a common level of the interface, the two types of commands including a first type and a second type, the first type being command and control commands and the second type being search request commands. The method further involves: receiving an utterance from the user that corresponds to a command of either of the first type or the second type; recognizing the utterance; if the received utterance is a command of the first type, performing a corresponding command and control function; and if the received utterance is a command of the second type, generating a representation of a corresponding search request and then using the representation to request a search that is responsive to the search request.

Abstract: Methods and systems for providing voice-mediated search capability to a mobile communications device involve receiving a signal from the mobile device that includes a representation of a spoken search request from a user of the mobile device, using speech recognition software to convert the search request into a text search request, extracting side information contained implicitly within the received signal, using the extracted side information to assign the user to a category, sending the text search request and the user category to content providers, receiving from the content providers content that is responsive to the text search request and the user category, and sending to the mobile device search results that are based on content from content providers. The methods and systems further involve sending searches and user categories to advertising providers, and sending advertisements returned by the advertising providers to the mobile device along with the search results.
