Patent number: 11300438Abstract: A method of operating an electro-optic sensor includes disposing at least a portion of the electro-optic sensor in a liquid chamber, providing light from a light source of the electro-optic sensor at a first intensity, driving a light detector of the electro-optic sensor at a first sensitivity level, receiving, via the light detector, a first amount of light from the light source; determining whether liquid is present in the liquid chamber according to the first amount of light, providing light from the light source at a second intensity, driving the light detector at a second sensitivity level, receiving, via the light detector, a second amount of light from the light source, and/or confirming whether liquid is present in the liquid chamber according to the second amount of light. The first sensitivity level may be different from the second sensitivity level. An electro-optic sensor is also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2020Date of Patent: April 12, 2022Assignee: Eaton Intelligent Power LimitedInventors: Gregory Kopansky, David A. Weiser, Thomas C.

Patent number: 8211020Abstract: A device for combining tomographic images with human vision using a half-silvered mirror to merge the visual outer surface of an object (or a robotic mock effector) with a simultaneous reflection of a tomographic image from the interior of the object. The device maybe used with various types of image modalities including ultrasound, CT, and MRI. The image capture device and the display may be enclosed in a sterile container (e.g., a probe bag) and a mirror and mirror housing may be separately attachable to the image capture device and display. In these embodiments, the mirror may be disposable and the sterility of the overall imaging device is maintained.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2008Date of Patent: July 3, 2012Assignee: University of Pittsburgh—Of The Commonwealth System of Higher EducationInventors: George DeWitt Stetten, William David Weiser, David C. Wang, John M. Galeotti, Damion M. Shelton

Patent number: 6658623Abstract: The document reading system passively analyzes a document to generate margin or end notes of references to other documents that relate to annotated passages in the document or to the entire document. The invention is responsive to the annotation of a document to passively generate a query that retrieves documents that have similar content to the annotated passage. The retrieved documents are available to the reader through selectable links placed in the margin near the annotation. Additionally, the invention provides end notes with links to documents that are similar in content to the overall content of the annotated document. The invention assists the reader by passively generating selectable links to related documents to assist the user in relating the new document to previously read material.Type: GrantFiled: September 15, 1997Date of Patent: December 2, 2003Assignees: Fuji Xerox Co., Ltd., Xerox CorporationInventors: William Noah Schilit, Morgan N. Price, Gene Golovchinsky, Mark David Weiser

Patent number: 6122520Abstract: A location information system uses a positioning system, such as the civilian Navstar Global Positioning System (GPS), in combination with a distributed network. The location information system includes a radio transceiver for communicating to the distributed network and a GPS receiving system. The GPS receiving system receives a signal from the GPS and converts it into a coordinate entry. The coordinate entry is transmitted to the distributed network for retrieval of corresponding location specific information. The location specific information may reside on a web page. The coordinate entry may be incorporated into the web page address that supports the coordinate entry or linked to an existing web page associated with the coordinate entry. The web page and associated information is displayed. Bar code labels, infrared beacons and other labeling systems may also be used in the location information system in place of or in addition to the GPS receiving system to supply location identification information.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 1998Date of Patent: September 19, 2000Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventors: Roy Want, Mark David Weiser, Anthony George LaMarca, David Goldberg
