摘要:
A method is provided for improved navigation guidance in a portable navigation device (104) having a first navigation operating mode (302) for requesting (318, 324) and receiving (326, 334) routelet data and navigation route data and operating in accordance with the routelet data (332) and a second operation navigation mode (304) for operating in accordance with the navigation route data (338). The method includes in the first navigation operating mode (302), the steps of transmitting a routelet request (318) comprising location data, speed data and direction data, the location, speed and direction data determined (312, 314 316) in response to a present location, a present speed and a present direction of travel, respectively, of the portable navigation device (104), receiving routelet data (326) and operating in accordance with the received routelet data (332).

A method of enabling the transmission of data in a wireless communication network is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of monitoring a plurality of communication interfaces; determining that a communication interface of the plurality of communication interfaces has become available; informing an application that the communication interface has become available; and transmitting data associated with the application on the communication interface.
摘要:
A system and method for managing content between different client devices in various domains (such as vehicle, home, and person). The system and method include receiving an input from a user on the first client device to delay the content. After receiving the input, the first client device determines whether the first client device is connected to a wireless communication system. If the first client device is connected to the wireless communication system, the first client device sends a data message to a host system. In one embodiment, the host system will then obtain the content (in whole or in part) after receiving the data message to permit the user to resume playback of the content on the first client device or another client device.

A display comprising includes a reflective panel 104 and a substantially transparent emissive panel 102. The emissive panel is aligned and positioned over the reflective panel 104. The emissive panel is operable to have an active pixel region 200 smaller than an active pixel region of the reflective panel 104. A controller 108 operable to provide first information for display on the reflective panel 104 and second information for display on the emissive panel 102, wherein the first and second information are coordinated to provide a single composite image to a user.
摘要:
A system (150) and method (200) for peer-to-peer content sharing in an ad-hoc network is provided. The system can include a plurality of peers (102) and a super peer (110). The super peer provides a continuous power supply (112) and mass storage (111) for distributing and caching shared content. The super peer can monitor (202) a plurality of requests for content, identify (204) popular content from the plurality of requests, and distribute (214) the popular content to the peers to offload content sourcing responsibilities. The super peer can manage a want-list (320), a popularity-list (330), and a source-list (340) for acquiring and distributing popular content.
摘要:
A method, apparatus, and system for performing facial recognition utilizing large databases is provided herein. During operation a large database is quickly narrowed by determining an automobile attribute (e.g., a license plate number) and determining a registered owner and possibly an address based on the automobile attribute. The image database is narrowed based on the registered owner of the vehicle, and possibly the address of the registered owner.

摘要:
A front-discharge nitrate truck with an articulated boom is disclosed. The boom is anchored about a pivot point which allows it to travel in a horizontal arc of at least 180.degree.. A joint in the boom near the anchor point enables the boom to be elevated in a substantial vertical arc. The boom elevation and orientation can be controlled by controls within the truck cab to locate the distal end of the boom at any ground position within a horizontal arc described by the distal end of the boom. The boom may further be folded alongside the truck for easy transport. The truck has its bed upon scales so that the truck operator may discharge a predetermined amount of prilled nitrate in a bore hold.
