Abstract:
A probe measurement system for measuring the electrical characteristics of integrated circuits or other microelectronic devices at high frequencies.
Abstract:
A method for processing a call is disclosed. The method receives a speech input via a call and transforms at the speech input into a textual format. The method also creates a list of salient terms of actions and objects from the text, adjusts the confidence level of objects on the list if the dominant term is an action and selects a complimentary object from the list to combine with the action to form an action-object pair. The method further adjusts a confidence level of actions on the list if the dominant term is an object and selects a complementary action from the list to combine with the action to form the action-object pair, and routes the call based on the action-object pair
Abstract:
A method of processing call is disclosed. In a particular embodiment, the method includes prompting a caller for information. The method further includes selecting a resource to process the information, determining a delay time to estimate when the resource will be available to the caller, providing a message to the caller having a time duration based on the delay time, and processing the caller's information.
Abstract:
A probe measurement system for measuring the electrical characteristics of integrated circuits or other microelectronic devices at high frequencies. The probe measurement system preferably includes a probe having a conductive path between the first and second sides of a substrate and a probe contact electrically connected to the conductive path.
Abstract:
The present invention includes an apparatus and corresponding method for concentrating analytes within a fluid flowing through a tube using acoustic radiation pressure. The apparatus includes a function generator that outputs a radio frequency electrical signal to a transducer that transforms the radio frequency electric signal to an acoustic signal and couples the acoustic signal to the tube. The acoustic signal is converted within the tube to acoustic pressure that concentrates the analytes within the fluid.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a harness adjustment system that may be used in various applications including backpacks, windsurf harnesses, kite-board harnesses, mountain climbing harnesses, utility harnesses, backpack shoulder straps, tie-down straps, and various belts for numerous applications. The harness adjustment system includes a first webbing strap, a winding reel, a cable tension member, and a strap lock. The winding reel is secured to a first portion of the strap. The cable is interconnected between a second portion of the strap and the winding reel. The cable loops from the strap to the reel such that winding of the reel retracts the cable to pull the second portion of the strap toward the first portion. The lock is coupled to the first strap second portion. The lock is selectively engageable with the second portion of the strap to relieve tension from the cable. Both cam and plate locks are disclosed.
Abstract:
A table includes a table top having a bottom surface, a cross member mounted to the bottom surface, and a first support rail adjacent the bottom surface and disposed between the table top and the cross member. One embodiment of a cable management assembly that may be used with the table includes a cover member and is mounted so as to be rotatable to one of a closed position and an open position where, in the closed position, the cover member is substantially parallel to a bottom surface of the table top.
Abstract:
A capacitive sensor including a housing having a hermetically sealed cavity, a plate in the cavity, a diaphragm forming a part of the cavity and spaced from the plate, a conductive layer on the first diaphragm, and a second conductive layer on the plate, the first and second conductive layers being the electrodes of a capacitor whose capacitance varies with the position of the diaphragm relative to the plate.
Abstract:
A sensor element is capped by bonding or otherwise forming a cap on a sensor element. The sensor may be hermetically sealed by using a hermetic cap and hermetic bonding material or by applying a hermetic coating. The sensor may be filled with a gas at an elevated pressure. The sensor may alternatively or additionally be filled with a special gas, such as a gas having a density-to-viscosity ratio above approximately 0.2.
Abstract:
A system and method of providing network access comprising a processor, a first network interface coupled to the processor, a second network interface coupled to the processor, a storage media accessible by the processor and a set of computer instructions stored on the storage media, executable by the processor, where the computer instructions can be executable to receive a network communication over the first network interface from a user using a user device and determine if the network communication is associated with an authenticated user. If the network communication is not associated with an authenticated user, is not destined for a server in a walled garden, and a pre-authentication interface is specified, the computer instructions can be executable to direct the user to the pre-authentication interface. The computer instructions can be further executable to direct the user to an authentication interface when the network communication is not associated with an authenticated user, is not destined for a server in the walled garden, and a pre-authentication interface is not specified.
