  • Patent number: 11706560
    Abstract: A headphone device comprising active noise cancellation means (ANC) having a feedback (FB) signal path, a feed forward (FF) signal path and a sidetone signal path, where the headphone is provided with a control member (1, 11) that can be displaced or rotated between opposite positions, where the control member (1, 11) is configured such that the gain of the FF signal path and the gain of the sidetone signal path are controllable by the control member (1, 11) in such manner that when the control member (1, 11) is at one extreme position, the gain of the FF signal path is maximum and the gain of the sidetone signal path is minimum and when the control member (1,11) is at the opposite extreme position, the gain of the FF signal path is minimum and the gain of the sidetone signal path is maximum.

  • Publication number: 20190263362
    Abstract: An apparatus for filling four or more tires simultaneously with air includes four or more fill hoses, each of the four or more fill hoses being between four and twenty feet in length and each of the four or more fill hoses adapted to connect to a tire fill valve of each of the four or more tires. A common manifold connects each of the four or more fill hoses allowing for passive tire filling through bidirectional communication of the air between the four or more tires. An air-input-port is attached to the common manifold allowing all of the tires to be inflated at the same time using active filling through an external air supply. The apparatus may comprise one or more valves attached to the common manifold. The apparatus may comprise one or more gauges attached to the common manifold.

  • Publication number: 20100275158
    Abstract: A system and method for providing events to a user, where, when providing events from a first playlist, the user may instruct the system to generate a second playlist of events related to the event presently provided, and where, when the second playlist has been provided, the system returns to the first playlist.

  • Publication number: 20100198926
    Abstract: A system and a method where a client, which usually is portable, derives information relating to an event experienced by a user and communicates this event information to one or more providers which return with information relating to corresponding or similar events. In one situation, the client stores the event information if communication with the providers is not possible, such as if the client is out of reach of a wireless network. In another situation, the providers may store the event information and act as search agents performing searches also in the future on the basis of the event information.

  • Publication number: 20080016569
    Abstract: A security management system can log, investigate, respond, and track computer security incidents that can occur in a networked computer system. In other words, the security management system can produce a security record of information related to the tracking of suspicious computer activity or actual computer security threats, such as denial of service attacks or other similar compromises to computers or computer networks. The security record can include, but is not limited to, date and times of computer security incidents, a name for a particular security incident, a security management system user, and a potential source of the computer security incident. The security record can be designed as a running log that saves or records all activity of a computer incident source as well as the activity of the security team responding to the computer incident source.

  • Publication number: 20060265746
    Abstract: A security management system includes a fusion engine which “fuses” or assembles information from multiple data sources and analyzes this information in order to detect relationships between raw events that may indicate malicious behavior and to provide an organized presentation of information to consoles without slowing down the processing performed by the data sources. The multiple data sources can comprise sensors or detectors that monitor network traffic or individual computers or both. The sensors can comprise devices that may be used in intrusion detection systems (IDS). The data sources can also comprise firewalls, audit systems, and other like security or IDS devices that monitor data traffic in real-time. The present invention can identify relationships between one or more real-time, raw computer events as they are received in real- time. The fusion engine can also assess and rank the risk of real-time raw events as well as mature correlation events.
