摘要:
A system and method for reporting a user's behavior and patterns when engaged in use of an electronic consumable. In a preferred embodiment, an electronic consumable such as an electronic book or library includes detectors for collecting biological information from a user. This information is analyzed to identify the user's interests in and reactions to the electronic consumable.

This disclosure describes systems, devices and methods related to embodiments of a dialysis system, including a home dialysis system, having a conductivity sensor or sensing system that measures conductivity in fluid associated with the dialysis system. For example, the conductivity sensor of the dialysis system can measure the conductivity of dialysate in order to determine its composition and verify proportioning of the dialysate. The conductivity sensor can also measure the purity of water and verify its proportioning in the dialysis system. In addition, the conductivity sensor can be configured to detect conductivity of the fluid within an acceptable range.

A portlet may be selected from among one or more portlets rendered by an origin server. The origin server may have an object listening for pointer activity wherein a user event triggers selection of a portlet. The origin server, in response, may send state information of the portlet in the form of a key to a client, often operated by a user. Client may later send the key to a disjoint server, wherein the key is integrated into a portal containing services that the client subscribes to. Thus a persistent session may exist between the disjoint server and the origin server based on the user's preferences.

An RFID tag includes a sensor for determining a transient state or condition of a product to which the tag is associated, and a display. The tag may be passive, semi-passive, or active. In response to receipt at the tag of a read signal that includes a first value associated with the transient state or condition, a comparison is performed. The comparison compares the first value, with a second value generated by the sensor in response to receipt of the read signal. As a result of the comparison, an indication is provided on the display. The information displayed is a function of the comparison. In one embodiment, the display provides different color indications depending on the transient state or condition sensed.

In a vehicle-to-vehicle network, a driver may listen to audio generated by other drivers participating in the network. The usability of the audio is enhanced by determining the relative positions of the providing and the receiving vehicles and then distributing received audio to specific speakers in the audio system of the receiving vehicle to create an impression that the sound originates from a source on the line between the two vehicles. The audio distributed to different speakers in the vehicle changes as the relative positions of the two vehicles changes. Volume changes and Doppler effects can be added to the audio if the two vehicles are converging or diverging.

A computer implemented method, a computer program product, and a data processing system attach audio generated scripts to graphical representations of applications. A mobile device records an audio instruction. The mobile device then converts the audio instruction into a command script and associates the command script with a document identifier. The mobile device then forwards the document identifier and the associated command script to a target location. The command script can then be utilized at the target location to make changes to a document identified by the document identifier.

An RFID tag includes a sensor for determining a transient state or condition of a product to which the tag is associated, and a display. The tag may be passive, semi-passive, or active. In response to receipt at the tag of a read signal that includes a first value associated with the transient state or condition, a comparison is performed. The comparison compares the first value, with a second value generated by the sensor in response to receipt of the read signal. As a result of the comparison, an indication is provided on the display. The information displayed is a function of the comparison. In one embodiment, the display provides different color indications depending on the transient state or condition sensed. In an alternative embodiment, the RFID tag display includes an electrical or thermal charge-induced pigment release medium, e.g., an electronic ink, and the tag is used to communicate information about the state of a product to which the tag is associated.
摘要:
A module is provided for identifying outlets on a common power circuit. The module comprises a connector adapted to electrically couple with an outlet, a signal generator electrically connected to the connector and adapted to send a signal through the connector into a power circuit in response to a predetermined discrete event, an indicator; and logic electrically connected to the connector and the indicator and adapted to detect a signal from another apparatus propagated on a common circuit and activate the indicator in response to the signal.

In V2V or other networks in which multiple video feeds are available to a participant, a participant can select a particular video feed for display. The participant has the option of selecting or locking onto a particular camera so that the display continues to show scenes captured by that camera without regard to what appears in those scenes. As an alternative, the participant may select or lock onto a particular scene. If a scene is selected, the current video feed is analyzed to identify key features. The video feed is monitored. If the key features disappear from the video feed, video feeds available from other cameras are analyzed for the presence of the key features. A new video feed (i.e., camera) is selected from the set of video feeds currently generating images including the key features.
摘要:
In V2V or other networks in which multiple video feeds are available to a participant, the participant's ability to select a particular video feed for display can be eased through the use of guided scanning. A guided scanning strategy is built based on operator inputs and used to select a particular set of video feeds that are initially shown as a video “slideshow” on the display used by the participant. Each video feed appears only for a limited period of time to enable easy participant review. Once the participant sees a particular video feed of interest, that video feed to can be selected for persisted presentation on the display.
