摘要:
An apparatus for separating liquid from a gas stream. The apparatus includes an elongated housing having a cylindrical inner surface and a gas stream inlet that is tangential to the side wall of the housing so as to cause the entering gas stream to swirl within the housing. A gas stream outlet is located at the top of the housing and a liquid outlet at the bottom. The gas stream outlet can include an elongated tubular member that extends into the housing and has an opening that is located below the housing gas stream inlet. Liquid components of the gas stream separate from the stream under the influence of centrifugal forces that are created by the swirling flow path of the stream within the housing. A liquid outlet and liquid outlet valve are provided for maintaining a minimum level of liquid within the housing so as to maintain a liquid seal within the housing. A level indicator may optionally be provided to monitor the liquid level within the housing. A power generation apparatus having two or more of the separators for separating liquid from fuel cell and fuel processor streams. Methods for manufacturing an apparatus for removing liquid from a gas stream and methods for separating liquid from a gas stream are also provided.

A method, apparatus and system of exposure of public internet protocol addresses in an advertising exchange server to improve relevancy of advertisements are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of a client device includes applying an automatic content recognition algorithm to determine a content identifier of an audio-visual data. The client device then associates the content identifier with an advertisement data based on a semantic correlation between a meta-data of the advertisement provided by a content provider and/or the content identifier. The advertisement data may be generated through an advertising exchange server based on the content identifier of the audio-visual data and/or a public internet-protocol address associated with an application requesting the advertisement data. A provider of the content identifier may receive a compensation when the advertisement data is associated with the audio-visual data based on the public internet protocol address associated with the application requesting the advertisement data.

In one embodiment, a method of a relevancy-matching server includes generating a fingerprint data using a television, matching primary data generated from the fingerprint data with targeted data based on a relevancy factor, and searching a storage for the targeted data, a reference and/or a metadata. The primary data is a content identification data and/or a content identification history. An embedded object is processed using a mobile device capable of being associated with the television. An executable environment is constrained in a security sandbox of the mobile device. A sandboxed application is executed in the executable environment. The fingerprint data from the television and/or the mobile device is processed through a content identification server. The primary data from the fingerprint data is communicated to any devices with an access to identification data of the television and/or an automatic content identification service through the content identification server.

An apparatus and a system of improvement of advertisement targeting through embedded scripts in supply-side and demand-side platforms are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of a client device includes applying an automatic content recognition algorithm to determine a content identifier of an audio-visual data. The client device then associates the content identifier with an advertisement data based on a semantic correlation between a meta-data of the advertisement provided by a content provider and/or the content identifier. The advertisement targeting may be improved when a script is embedded in the client device, a supply-side platform, and/or a data provider integrated with the supply side platform, to execute arbitrary cross-site scripts in the sandboxed application of the client device. The content identifier may be obfuscated in a manner that it is relevant to a particular demand-side platform to eliminate a need to query the provider of the content identifier on a per ad-spot basis. The demand-side platform may submit requests to the advertising exchange based on a constraint type rather than through a bidding methodology on a per advertisement spot basis.

A method, apparatus and system related to zero-configuration remote control of device(s) coupled to a networked media device through a client side device communicatively coupled with the networked media device are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of a client device includes determining that an internet protocol address and a port from an unannounced device is associated with a networked media device. The client device constrains an executable environment in a security sandbox. Then, the client device executes a sandboxed application in the executable environment using a processor and a memory. Next, the client device automatically instantiates a connection between the sandboxed application and the unannounced device associated with the networked media device based on the determination that the internet protocol address of the port from the unannounced device is associated with the networked media device. The unannounced device may utilize a web services interface and/or an infrared remote control interface. The networked media device may utilize an InfraRed (IR) blaster to associate with the unannounced device instead of the internet protocol address and the port when the unannounced device utilizes an infrared remote control interface.

A method, apparatus and system related to automated discovery and launch of an application on a network enabled device are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of a client device includes determining that a networked media device sharing a local area network common with the client device has automatically detected an audio-visual data and/or an application currently being accessed by a user of the client device. The client device automatically communicates a present state of the audio-visual data and/or the application currently being accessed by the user of the client device to the networked media device. Then, the client device detects that the audio-visual data and/or the application currently being accessed by the user of the client device has been launched on the networked media device. Optionally, a haptic gesture may be applied on the client device by the user to transport the audio-visual data and/or the application from the client device to the networked media device. The application may serve a control point when the present state of the audio-visual data and/or the application currently being accessed by the user of the client device is communicated to the networked media device. In addition, an automatic content recognition algorithm in the client device and/or the networked media device may generate a meta-data associated with content in the present state of the audio-visual data.
