摘要:
A method of obtaining demographic profiles of individuals or groups of individuals and monetizing the profiles while compensating the individuals whose profiles are monetized.
摘要:
A method for superimposing graphic representations of ground locations onto images of ground locations after detecting the presence of material failure(s) or failures in man-made structures in such ground locations including providing an image sensor spaced remotely from the ground and which sequentially captures a number of images of various ground locations to provide digital images of such ground locations; processing captured digital images to determine the presence of a potential material failure in a man-made structure in accordance with predetermined coordinate positions which locate the man-made structures in one or more of the captured digital images; identifying reference points in the ground locations corresponding to the same reference points in the graphic representations of the ground location; and superimposing the graphic representation with the reference points onto at least one of the captured digital images.
摘要:
A receiver for receiving a water-based colorant image transferred by a stamp or the like, including an image receiving structure having a support; an information receiving layer which contains recorded information, such information receiving layer being formed over the support; and a clear hydrophobic protective layer formed over the information receiving layer; and a hydrophilic layer formed over the information receiving layer and selected so as to be able to receive a water-based colorant image.
摘要:
An integral image element includes at least one display control parameter that is stored in a storage mechanism located in a data code field of the integral image element. The display control parameter is read by an information reading device of a dynamic display unit that controls the display of the integral image element based on the display control parameter. The display control parameter or parameters stored on the integral image element may include a frame rate parameter, a sound parameter, a scent parameter and an illumination parameter.
摘要:
A multilayer structure is disclosed which includes a single crystal semiconductor substrate. On the substrate is an epitaxial buffer layer, and on the buffer is an epitaxial fluoride outer layer exhibiting upconversion excitation upon red or infrared irradiation.
摘要:
A process is disclosed of forming a film of a ternary metal fluoride in which there is combined a solvent solution, a mixture of metallo-ogranic compounds, and an organic fluoride to form a casting liquid. The casting liquid is then coated by a method such as dip coating or spin coating to form a coating on a substrate. The coated substrate is then heated to decompose the metallo-organic compounds and organic fluoride resulting in recovery of a termary metal fluoride coated substrate. The ternary metal fluorides formed are fluorides of at least one alkaine earth metal and at least one fourth period divalent transition metal having an atomic number of from 22 to 30 inclusive.
摘要:
A method, computer readable medium and system for sponsored printing of images with promotional material includes identifying at least one of one or more promotional materials for at least one of a one or more images based on at least one criteria. The identified promotional material and the image are provided in a combined format for printing on a media.
摘要:
A method for authenticating a printed or scanned embedded image is disclosed that utilizes a prediction of the effect of a print or scanning process on the embedded message based upon characteristics of the printer or scanner. These values are measured directly at the time of authentication and compared to the predicted. Based on the comparison a decision is made regarding authenticity.
摘要:
A method for accessing a pre-approved image associated with a user which is stored in a first memory by an authorizing agency and is assigned a particular identification code which is linked to the pre-approved image and for making a document having such pre-approved image, including the steps of the user transferring his or her identification code for the pre-approved image to a receiving agency; the receiving agency accessing the stored pre-approved image using the transferred identification code and transferring such pre-approved image to a second memory; the receiving agency viewing the pre-approved image from the second memory so the receiving agency can verify that the viewed image is authentic; and printing the pre-approved authenticated image, text or graphics from the second memory at the receiving agency as part of a document.
摘要:
A method of forming authentic user viewable images on a receiver to which a series of viewable images such as postal stamps are adapted to be transferred including providing a receiver, and forming a series of authentic user viewable marks on the receiver prior to transfer of the series of images onto such receiver.
