Abstract: A composite material structure can be constructed using an airforming process that includes filling the inflated support mold with a fluid structural material and allowing the fluid structural material to harden within the support mold. Additional steps can include inflating the support mold with a first fluid, forming fluid escape outlets in the support mold, and removing the support mold after allowing the fluid structural material to harden. The first fluid can be air, the support mold can be a fiberglass resin, and/or the fluid structural material can be a concrete composite material. Fluid can escape through the fluid escape outlets during the filling. The finished structure can include multiple structural components formed from a homogenous concrete composite material and having curved and non-planar geometries. The concrete composite material can include aluminum alloy fibers.

Abstract: A media presentation system can include a media generation component, a projection component, a first redirection component, and a display component. The media generation component can generate video imagery, and the projection component can project one or more beams containing the video imagery in an initial direction. The first redirection component can redirect the beam(s) from the initial direction to a subsequent different direction. The display component can receive the beam(s), display the video imagery, and can form a substantially continuous spherical shape that surrounds multiple human viewers of the video imagery above and around all sides of all viewers. A second redirection component can receive the beam(s) in the subsequent direction from the first redirection component and redirect the beam(s) in a following direction toward the display component. The system can form a dome-shaped movie theater that displays the video imagery at the display component located within the dome.

Abstract: An indoor cooling system kit can include aluminum beverage cans, flexible hoses, a fan, and instructions for forming the indoor cooling system. Further kit materials can include containers, dehumidifying material, a filter, and further instructions. A method of cooling an indoor region can include cutting tops and bottoms away from aluminum beverage cans, coupling the cans together in series to form two elongated airflow passages, coupling a flexible hose to open ends of both airflow passages, adjusting the hose so that both airflow passages and hose form a U-shaped airflow passage, forming a hole in the ground beneath the indoor region, inserting the U-shaped airflow passage into the hole with its inlet and outlet elevated out of the hole into the indoor region, and operating a fan to force air through the inlet. The air is cooled geothermally as it travels through the overall U-shaped airflow passage.

Abstract: Disclosed is a Centralized Caller Profile System and methods for routing and prioritizing calls. The disclosed systems and methods provide enhanced customer service by allowing multiple parties to update and share the same set of profile information from a centralized database. The disclosed systems and methods provide for faster, easier access to profile information, more efficient call routing, and the ability to prioritize callers in a caller queue.

Abstract: A method and system is provided for providing an incentive for a customer to provide additional information regarding demographic and purchasing habits. Such information is then used to create a customer profile which can be used to enhance the customer experience as well as to determine rates of customer acquisition and retention.

Abstract: A centralized caller profile and billing system provides methods for routing and prioritizing calls and for providing billing information and payment. The systems and methods provide enhanced customer service by allowing multiple parties to update and share the same set of profile information from a centralized database. Faster and easier access to profile information is provided, allowing more efficient call routing and the ability to prioritize callers in a caller queue. When a caller connects with a called party, a centralized database of caller information is automatically applied to the caller, thereby eliminating the need for verbal billing requests. Billing information is sent from the centralized caller database to a payment gateway upon verification of a caller's PIN. The billing information is sent conveniently and securely. Security is improved because the billing information can be communicated directly to the payment gateway, third party, or other agent.

Abstract: A system and method is disclosed for recommending venues and events to individual users using a combination of collaborative filtering and integrating social behavioral pattern data gathered and computed via an electronic device. The system and method of the present invention is configured to receive data based on users' past, present and future social activity and interests, which are submitted to the system via an electronic device. When a new data item is made available from sources such as a mobile device, social networks or GPS systems, the system and method analytically breaks down the new item data, compares it to ascertained attributes of item data that a user (i.) indicated interest to in the past, (ii.) has a friend or related network of users that indicated interest in the venue or in an event in the past, and (iii.) indicated interest in the event or venue based upon general social statistics such as male to female ratio, age, and other demographics gathered and computed by the system.
