Patent number: 8845535Abstract: The invention relates to a capsule or chip or sensor comprising a marker/detector and signalling device/method associated with the development of a medical condition/disease and to its use. This In Situ Lab On a Chip Signalling device (ISLOGS device) is used for detecting a medical condition/disease in situ or in vivo (inside the body), for example by swallowing it for testing in the digestive tract or by putting it into the vagina, mouth or nose. All reactions takes place in the body and when the test result is positive the device will notify the subject by colorizing the tested body fluid or biomaterial (for example faeces, urine or saliva) or the device itself. The detection is made outside of the body when the biomaterial or ISLOCS device has left the body.Type: GrantFiled: February 23, 2009Date of Patent: September 30, 2014Assignees: Universiteit TwenteInventors: Herbert Michael Pinedo, Roderik Adriaan Kraaijenhagen, Albert Van Den Berg

Patent number: 7656861Abstract: Text is interleaved and transported along with media data over the same real-time Internet Protocol (IP) media transport session. A network processing device identifies text characters corresponding with text signaling. The identified text characters are formatted into text packets and sent over the same real-time IP media transport session used for real-time media transport. The media transport session can identify the sequence that the text characters are transmitted and can specify a maximum character transfer rate.Type: GrantFiled: November 3, 2004Date of Patent: February 2, 2010Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: Paul Edwin Jones, Rajesh Kumar, Mehryar Khalili Garakani, Herbert Michael Wildfeuer

Patent number: 7623273Abstract: A method and system for connecting V.34 enabled fax machines (that is fax machines capable of operating at 33,600 bps) over network gateways that use the un-enhanced T.38 protocol, that is, gateways that have not been upgraded to handle the V.34 33,600 bps protocol in fax relay mode. When a gateway detects a V.8 protocol signal, the signal is modified so that the fax machines fall back to non V.34 protocol and operate at a slower speed which the un-enhanced T.38 gateway is capable of handling.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2003Date of Patent: November 24, 2009Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: Mehryar Khalili Garakani, Steven J.

Patent number: 6842503Abstract: A network device for transmitting TTY data across a data network has a PSTN port for receiving PSTN signals and a demodulator for demodulating the PSTN signals into digital data. A processor detects a suspected start bit for TTY data and buffers voice packets while it parses the following data. If the start bit is valid, the buffered data is discarded and the processor packetizes and transmits the TTY data through a data port. A network device for receiving TTY data extracts TTY data from an incoming data packet stream. The TTY data is then remodulated into PSTN signals and transmitted to the PSTN via a PSTN port.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2003Date of Patent: January 11, 2005Assignee: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventor: Herbert Michael Wildfeuer

Patent number: 4015344Abstract: A method and apparatus for teaching physical arts by establishing an image of an instructor in a virtual optical plane, and simultaneously establishing an image of an action-imitating pupil also in a virtual optical plane, to enable the pupil to compare his virtual image with that of the instructor.A commercial tape, for visual reproduction, shows an instructor performing before a mirror to demonstrate the action to be taught, and shows a view of his back and a view of his reflection in the mirror. When the tape is visually reproduced on an appropriate surface, an auxiliary pupil's mirror disposed edgewise adjacent the surface, lets a practicing pupil see his own image for comparison with the instructor's image.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 1973Date of Patent: April 5, 1977Inventors: Herbert Michaels, William Stanton, Edward Roll
