    摘要: A method and a device for imitating an artificial geyser that are simple and inexpensive in realization. The artificial geyser device comprises a sealed container located preferably underground in a shallow recess and filled with water. The container is provided with a heater for heating water to the level of boiling and with a common discharge pipe, one end of which is located in the container and can be adjusted with regard to the level of water while the opposite end extends to the atmosphere in the form of an eruption pipe with a supersonic nozzle on the output end. The common discharge pipe passes over the open ends of the U-shaped pipe arrangement. The device has a group of valves that selectively may change the direction of the eruption flow for passing to the atmosphere only through the common discharge pipe, only through the U-shaped arrangement, or through both simultaneously.

    摘要: The interactive science learning method consists of a sequence of hands-on experiments with matching computer simulations that connect a student's prior experience to core science concepts, and the apparatus implements the learning method. A tutorial is employed to evoke a student's prior experience, and equates that experience with a hands-on laboratory experiment performed by the student. Computer generated simulations emulate the hands-on experiment to reinforce the concept, by picturing the phenomenon more completely and by allowing the student to instantaneously see how changing input variables affects an outcome, and may also extrapolate the concept to different physical scales. A remote sensor device, such as may for example incorporate an accelerometer feature, can be employed to transmit, in real time, signals containing information that is representative of phenomena that are sensed or experienced by the student, for use in the computer-generated simulations.

    摘要: A simplified and user-friendly reusable modular building block system, for use by the professional architect or home design enthusiast, allowing for the creation of custom architectural scale models of building designs similar in appearance and function to professional scale models produced in architects' offices is presented. The building block system pieces are comprised of interlocking injection-molded solid plastic parts and grouped in five classes of various corresponding shapes and sizes. The construction and grouping of the block system pieces can be connected together at the user's discretion in a limitless variety of creative configurations, thereby forming the walls, floors, ceilings, roofs, door and window openings, and other building design elements of an architectural model at 1:48 scale (¼″=1′-0″) based on the user's unique house design, or an existing design if so desired.

    摘要: A computerized method, system and machine-readable medium to enable a user to remotely perform a decorating session on an electronic image are provided. The method includes: receiving, at a client computer, a user-supplied digital image having an area to be decorated; interactively mapping, at the client computer, the area to be decorated with a product to obtain a mapped image; transmitting the mapped image to a web server over a public communications network; and providing either the user or another user access to a user-selected web site supported by the web server over the public communications network to enable the user or other user to perform a decorating session. During the session, the user or other user electronically applies product images to the area to be decorated and views the results of the session prior to generating an order for the product.

    摘要: This disclosure relates to an automated system for generating large numbers of digitally-defined patterns suitable for printing on textiles wherein each pattern is individually different but shares one or more unifying design motifs with all other patterns. In the general case, each pattern is comprised of at least two components in the form of separately configurable pattern layers that are digitally superimposed to form a composite pattern that is unique but visually related to all other unique patterns that use pattern layers taken from the same pattern sources.
