摘要:
A method for collecting geographic data for use with a navigation system identifies a pedestrian segment associated with a path. A text description of the pedestrian segment is collected. The text description includes one of a predetermined number of phrases and name of at least one feature visible from a location of the pedestrian segment. Data representing the pedestrian segment is stored in the geographic database.

A method for collecting geographic data for use with a navigation system is disclosed. A route between a first location and a second location is identified. Data providing directions for traveling from said first location to said second location is collected. The data providing directions is stored in a geographic database. The geographic database is provided for use with navigation related features.

A device (10) having a flexible elongated support member (11) having an upperside, an underside, and a first and second extension (16, 18) on either side of a central-portion, each of the first and second extensions have a free-end. A first and second strap portion (26, 27) affixed to and extending from the upperside between the free-ends of the support member (11). These strap portions are employed for positioning around the mass (20). A matable first and second coupling (28A, 28B) is attached to a free end-section of each of the first and second strap portions. The strap portions (26, 27) may be adjustable in length with each respective coupling being slidably attached to its respective free end-section. Extending from the underside of the support member and along each of the first and second extensions, is a respective first and second plurality of handles (12A, 12B, 12C, 14A, 14B, 14C) affixed to at least the underside. Also, a method of lifting to carry a mass (20) employing a device (10) comprising a flexible elongated support member (11) characterized herein. The method includes: placing the support member (11) under the mass (20) and positioning the first and second strap portion (26, 27) therearound; engaging a first and second coupling (28A, 28B) such that the mass fits snug within the strap portions; and grasping and applying a force to at least one handle from each of a first and second plurality of handles extending from, and affixed to, the underside along a respective one of the first and second extensions, to aid in the lifting.

The present invention relates to a loaded particle comprising at least one fluorescent dye, and in particular, a fluorescent dye with a large Stokes shift. The invention further relates to a method for producing an loaded latex particle, loaded with a fluorescent dye having a large stokes shift. In addition, the present invention relates to latex particles loaded with fluorescent dyes that are organic solvent soluble and insoluble in water. In a preferred embodiment, when the dyes are loaded into the water soluble latex particle, an increase is observed in quantum yield of fluorescence as compared to the quantum yield of the dye in aqueous solvent.

A method for operating a navigation system computes a pedestrian route for travel by a pedestrian. A request to calculate the pedestrian route from an origin to a destination and a walking preference for the pedestrian route identifying a feature of the pedestrian route are obtained. A geographic database associated with the navigation system is accessed for data representing at least one pedestrian path. The data representing the pedestrian path includes lighting level attribute information for the pedestrian path. A valid solution pedestrian route from the origin to the destination comprising a series of connected pedestrian paths that support the walking preference is determined.

A method and apparatus for calculating employee expenses is disclosed herein. One embodiment of the method may include transferring first data from a first computer to a second computer. The first data causes the second computer to display text, wherein a portion of the text is a first inquiry related to at least one expense item of the employee. Second data is transferred from the second computer to the first computer, wherein the second data is representative of a response to the first inquiry and wherein the second data is smaller than the first data. A second inquiry related to the at least one expense item based on the response to the first inquiry is then determined. Third data representative of the second inquiry is transmitted from the first computer to the second computer. A portion of the text is modified upon receipt of the third data by the second computer, wherein the modified portion of the text is related to the second inquiry.
摘要:
A navigation system determines a route between a first location on a road network and a second location in a facility off of the road network. The system composes individual guidance messages for travel along a portion of the route on the road network. A pre-composed set of guidance instructions for travel in the facility along a portion of the route off of the road network are obtained from a geographic database associated with the navigation system.

An I. V. stand is provided for (1) use by itself; (2) releasable use with a wheelchair providing for movement of its supporting wheels to provide only swiveling wheels; and (3) use with a gurney providing an adjustable arm attachment. The I. V. pole has an indicator for showing the position of a snubber, or attachment, mechanism used to contact the wheelchair. The I. V. stand has two castered forward wheels and two non-pivoted rear wheels with a castered fifth wheel located between the rear wheels for lifting the rear wheels off a floor when all castered wheels are desired on the I. V. stand.
