Abstract:
The invention relates generally to partitioning devices and methods for partitioning space. A device is presented comprising: at least one partition body; at least one motility assembly operably adapted to at least one partition body; and at least one interconnect, where the at least one interconnect is used to interchangeably link the at least one partition body in multiple configurations with another partition body. A method for partitioning space is presented comprising: providing a first partitioning device, where the partitioning device includes at least one interconnect, where the interconnect is used to interchangeably link the partitioning device body with a second partitioning device body; providing at least a first removably attachable portion on the first partitioning device; removing the removably attachable portion; and replacing the removably attachable portion with a second removably attachable portion, where the removably attachable portion is different than the first removably attachable portion.
Abstract:
A sleep efficiency monitor and methods for pacing and leading a sleeper through an optimal sleep pattern. Embodiments of the present invention include a physiological characteristic monitor for monitoring the sleep stages of a sleeper, a sensory stimulus generator for generating stimulus to affect the sleep stages of a sleeper, and a processor for determining what sleep stage the sleeper is in and what sensory stimulus is needed to cause the sleeper to move to another sleep stage. A personalized sleep profile may also be established for the sleeper and sleep guided in accordance with the profile parameters to optimize a sleep session. By providing sensory stimulus to a sleeper, the sleeper may be guided through the various sleep stages in an optimal pattern so that the sleeper awakens refreshed even if sleep is disrupted during the night or the sleeper's allotted sleep period is different than usual. Embodiments of the invention also involve calibration of the sleep guidance system to a particular sleeper.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for communications systems and more particularly to systems and methods for locating a mobile communication device are disclosed. When attempting to locate a misplaced, lost or stolen mobile communication device, if the mobile communication device may be in the possession of another party, the mobile communication device may be remotely controlled such that remote operations are independent of the normal mobile communication device operations.
Abstract:
An apparatus for use with a motor vehicle to simulate fuel loss to encourage early refueling to prevent stranding. The apparatus may cause stumbling and hesitation by interrupting various engine management systems to simulate low fuel in the tank by cutting either spark or fuel momentarily or applying the brakes.
Abstract:
A medical device, said medical device, comprises: a first component having a non-biological material; a second component having a cloned biological material, said second component being attached to said first component, wherein said first component and said second component are operatively associated in a non-living medical device for at least one of treatment, diagnosis, cure, mitigation and prevention of disease, injury, handicap or condition in a living organism. In another aspect, a method comprises: preparing a cloned biological material from a tissue or an organ; attaching said biological material to a medical device; interfacing said biological material with the non-biological material; providing treatment, diagnosis, cure, mitigation and prevention of disease, injury, handicap or condition in a living organism.
Abstract:
A system comprising a lead computer a plurality of receivers and transmitters for capturing audio and/or video signals and converting the audio and/or video signals to a transmittable form, wherein at least one of the plurality of receivers and transmitters is associated with at least one individual of a group, wherein the lead computer includes a computer processor for processing a selection of the group and a selection of the transmittable audio and/or video signals of the at least one individual transmitted over a network to the lead computer, wherein the lead computer includes a display device having one or more view windows for playing the selection of the group alongside the selection of the transmittable audio and/or video signals of the at least one individual.

Abstract:
A method for resolving an issue and a method for blindly resolving an issue are provided. A method for resolving an issue, comprising: (a) providing a group, wherein the group includes at least three Mentors and a Focus; (b) evaluating the Focus by the at least three Mentors; (c) identifying an inconsistent internal existence of the Focus by the at least three Mentors; (d) comparing the inconsistent internal existence to a matrix of consistent internal existence by the at least three Mentors; (e) providing feedback to the Focus from the Mentors; and (f) incorporating the feedback by the Focus to create a modified internal existence of the Focus is provided. A method for blindly resolving an issue is also provided.
Abstract:
A method for secure communication of a message. The method includes providing a message including a plurality of message packets, providing a nodal network including a plurality of nodes, where nodal operations are capable of execution on the message packets at the nodes, gaining, by a first node of the network, a first message packet, processing the first message packet by the first node, relinquishing the first message packet as processed by the first node, gaining, by any other node of the network, at least one other message packet, processing the other message packet by the other node, relinquishing the other message packet as processed by the other node, receiving, by a message destination node of the network, a first message packet, receiving, by the message destination node, at least a second message packet, and processing the first message packet and the second message packet to provide a reproduced message.
