Publication number: 20110124349Abstract: A power manager for mobile applications using location based services. Generally described, the system and method manages power of a wireless device by adjusting the sampling rate of mobile applications that use location based services. In one illustrative embodiment, the power can be managed by establishing a schedule. The schedule can include settings such as a start time, end time, interval, and duration. These settings can be used to establish a window of time whereby multiple location samplings can take place. The schedule can minimize the user's involvement on a continual basis by allowing manual and automatic scheduling. The power manager can include, but is not limited to, three features to provide better power management for the wireless device. These can include scheduling for location sampling, automatic and learned scheduling, and frequency and duration dynamic modification. Through the power manager, the power supply on the wireless device can be maximized.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 24, 2009Publication date: May 26, 2011Inventors: James D. Midtun, Dave Anderson

Patent number: 7827047Abstract: Methods and systems provide scheduling assistance with automation. A party requesting scheduling can make the request to the automated system in various ways such as a voiced call to a voice services node, an email or instant message over the Internet, or a wireless data message from a wireless device. Request data based on the communication from the requesting party is compared to schedule data, such as by querying a database containing the schedule data. If the request data is compatible with the schedule data such that the request can be accommodated, then the schedule data is altered according to the request data to reflect the new scheduling. A notification may then be sent to the requesting party and/or the scheduling party owning the schedule to confirm the scheduling. For example, a voice services node may provide a verbal confirmation to the requesting party over the voiced call, or an email, instant message, or wireless data message may be sent to the requesting party.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2003Date of Patent: November 2, 2010Assignee: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Dave Anderson, Robert A.

Patent number: 7715927Abstract: A myocardial infarction patch for placement over a myocardial infarction includes an electroactive polymer (EAP) structure. Varying electricity supplied to the EAP structure causes the patch to expand and contract over the myocardial infarction. The expansion and contraction of the patch can be coordinated with the expansion and contraction of the heart. The electricity is provided to the EAP via a pacemaker, defibrillator, ICD or similar pulse-generating device. Causing the patch to expand and contract against the myocardial infarction can improve the ejection fraction of the heart.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2007Date of Patent: May 11, 2010Assignee: Pacesetter, Inc.Inventors: Dave Anderson, Annapuma Karicherla

Publication number: 20090114801Abstract: A security sensor apparatus senses movement of an object. The sensor apparatus includes an electronics arrangement having an optical emitter and an optical receiver. The optical receiver has an axis of reception. The optical emitter emits a first beam along an axis of emission in an emission direction. The axis of emission diverges in the emission direction from the axis of reception at an angle of at least two degrees. The electronics arrangement is mounted in association a first surface of the object or a second surface of a structure disposed in opposition to the first surface. A reflector arrangement includes at least one reflective surface and is mounted in association with the other of the first surface and the second surface. The at least one reflective surface receives at least a portion of the first beam and produces a second beam directed at and received by the optical receiver.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 7, 2009Publication date: May 7, 2009Applicants: Bosch Security Systems, Inc,, Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: William Dipoala, Dave Anderson, Jeffrey Swan

Publication number: 20080076557Abstract: Methods and systems establish games with automation using verbal communication for exchanges between the automated game and the one or more game players. Game information data is converted into verbal information that is provided to the individual. The individual provides verbal instruction which is received and converted into the instruction data. The instruction data is applied to the current game to update the current game status. Information data for the current game status is converted to verbal information for the current game status which is provided to the individual. The game may be implemented on a local device of the individual or may be network-based and accessed remotely by the individual through verbal communication over a voice connection. The voice connection may be of various forms such as a conventional voiced call to a voice services node of a telephone network or a voice-over IP voiced call on a data network.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 3, 2007Publication date: March 27, 2008Inventors: Dave Anderson, Senis Busayapongchai

Publication number: 20060109644Abstract: The illuminating liquid is the first liquid illuminator that can fit on any standard sports events, or business logo poly bottle and does not require the owner to purchase a special container to advertise his logo. The inventor has intended the patent to be only for the bottom part of the Liquid Illuminator. Using an LED rather than a light as other inventions, the illumination is brighter and will light up a greater variation of liquids. The advertiser logo needs to be silk screened on the poly bottle and does not have to be applied in any other manner. The illuminating of the liquid with the switch in conjunction with the battery and LED illuminates the image or logo on the bottle.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 19, 2004Publication date: May 25, 2006Inventors: Ralph Saucier, Dave Anderson

Publication number: 20060019763Abstract: The Golf Swing Aid Tool is made of durable synthetic material which will not rust or deteriorate, and will withstand the environment that it will be exposed to. The material also makes the Golf Swing Aid Tool light and able to be handled easily by a younger golfer, or whoever decides to use the aid tool. The Golf Ball Extension Arm is made so it can easily be adjusted and locked in place. It is also made so it will slide easily when adjusting for different position with different clubs. The (2) Feet Extension Arms can easily be turned so they can be locked in position and are located so that the golfers will not turn the Arms past 90 degrees. The arm are also made so they can easily be adjusted so they can slide across the Main Body of the Golf Swing Aid Tool and be locked in place without difficulty to the Golfer.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 21, 2004Publication date: January 26, 2006Inventor: Dave Anderson
