Abstract: Improvements are disclosed in the ordering, preparation, billing, and delivery of food and beverages in contexts including retail establishments. The customer order can be developed at the same or another location, via an application on a smartphone, tablet, or computer, on or offline. Various factors that allow predicting the details of a customer's probable order simplify the process. Automatic allow for polling other parties who might have their own interest in similar products, and the aggregation of such interest in a common order. Orders are transferred to systems in the establishment that streamline ordering, billing, preparation, and customer pickup of completed items.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for processing a set of communicated signals associated with a set of muscles, such as the muscles near the larynx of the person, or any other muscles the person use to achieve a desired response. The method includes the steps of attaching a single integrated sensor, for example, near the throat of the person proximate to the larynx and detecting an electrical signal through the sensor. The method further includes the steps of extracting features from the detected electrical signal and continuously transforming them into speech sounds without the need for further modulation. The method also includes comparing the extracted features to a set of prototype features and selecting a prototype feature of the set of prototype features providing a smallest relative difference.

Abstract: A system, computer-implemented method, and a computer program product for defining rental property data associated with one or more rental properties within a review datastore. One or more user-definable rules are applied to the rental property data to generate suspect data. At least a portion of an interactive review form is populated with at least a portion of the suspect data. A user is enabled to provide user input associated with the suspect data via one or more data-entry fields included within the interactive review form. The user input is stored within the review datastore.

Abstract: A lighting system including various improvements is disclosed. Fixtures can accept lamps of differing variants and types in the same lamp socket without damage and with automatic connection to the appropriate power. Telescoping fixture housings and an optical system in which compound optical arrays produce multiple parallel beams and focal points reduce fixture size. A multi-stage color-mixing system efficiently produces both saturated colors and tints from a simple mechanism comparable in complexity and cost to prior art systems. Such fixtures can be packaged to ship contained entirely within prior art rigid truss, deploying to “use” position with little or no effort. A unified system supplies power and control to such fixtures, both “conventional” and “automated” as well as chain motors using the same power and data multi-cable cable. And both trusses and shipping cases are fabricated from simple structural shapes.

Abstract: The invention relates to a keystone correction system and method. The system includes a projector for projecting an image on a projection surface and a platform to allow a user to vertically rotate the projector before horizontally rotating the projector. The projector corrects for keystone distortion responsive to the projector's vertical and horizontal position. The platform increases the keystone range of the projector. The keystone correction method includes moving a projector in a vertical direction and moving a projector in a horizontal direction after moving the projector in a vertical direction.
