    摘要: The system allows a user to use a portable capture device to identify a product that is being examined by the user at a merchant's location. The identity of the merchant is also captured by the system before or after the examination of the product. If the user or a party affiliated with the user subsequently purchases the product from a source other than the merchant where the product was examined, the system compensates the merchant where the product was examined under a referral award program. Awards under the referral award program can take a variety of forms, including cash, advertising credit, or manufacturer rebates.

    摘要: A reduced keyboard disambiguating system. The keyboard has twelve to sixteen keys, nine of them labeled with numerous letters and other symbols, and those nine plus one more are associated each with one of the ten digits. Textual entry keystrokes are ambiguous. The user strikes a delimiting “Select” key, or a key with an unambiguous character interpretation, at the end of each word, delimiting a keystroke sequence that could match any of a plurality of words associated with the same keystroke sequence. Each input keystroke sequence is processed with a complete vocabulary, and words which match the sequence of keystrokes are presented to the user in order of decreasing frequency of use. The vocabulary is stored in a special format that supports significant data compression without requiring additional processing. In addition, stems of longer words whose initial letters match the sequence of keystrokes are also presented to the user in order of decreasing frequency of use. If the frequency of the words associated with a stem is high enough, that stem is displayed as the default word object. Activations of an ambiguous key associated with a plurality of punctuation characters are disambiguated from the context of the surrounding keystrokes.

    摘要翻译: 减少键盘消歧系统。 键盘有十二到十六个键,其中九个标有许多字母和其他符号,而这九个加上一个与十位数字中的一个相关联。 文本输入按键是不明确的。 用户在每个单词的末尾敲击一个划定的“选择”键或具有明确字符解释的键,界定可以匹配与相同击键序列相关联的多个单词中的任一个的击键序列。 每个输入击键序列用完整的词汇进行处理,并且与击键序列匹配的单词按降低使用频率的顺序呈现给用户。 词汇表以特殊格式存储,支持重要的数据压缩,无需额外的处理。 另外,其起始字母与击键序列匹配的较长字词的茎也按照使用频率降低的顺序呈现给用户。 如果与杆相关的单词的频率足够高,则该词干显示为默认的单词对象。 与多个标点符号相关联的模糊键的激活从周围的击键的上下文中消歧。

    摘要: A visual indicator used to indicate a disposition of an end of a tape comprises a colored layer, and one or more layers of elongate polymer elements, or one or more polarizing layers, or one or more dichroic filter layers. When the tape is stretched as a piece is torn or cut away, an orientation of the polymer elements, or a polarization configuration, or a thickness of the dichroic layers is changed, changing a color, opacity, or reflectance visually evident at the end of the tape. In other embodiments, the visual indicator comprises one or more visible lines that run diagonally across the width of the tape, either in successive sections or along the entire length, so that a discontinuity between the line at the end and at an adjacent point on the remainder of the tape indicates the disposition of the end and an approximate amount of tape remaining.
