  • Network transcoding system
    Patent number: 8688859
    Abstract: The system is a distributed video transcoding system that allows content to be transformed from one digital format to another close to the ingest and delivery points to minimize the time and cost of the transfer between end points. Additionally by making transcoding an integral part of the distribution of content itself, significant efficiencies can be gained. The distribution can be improved by transcoding at different phases of the transfer. Within the system decisions can be made to utilize different transcoding resources based on various business rules and priorities.
    Type: Grant

  • Apparatus and method for locating therapeutic seeds implanted in a human body
    Patent number: 6447438
    Abstract: Determining the locations of therapeutic seeds implanted in a body part by distinguishing the therapeutic seeds from the body part by imposing physical changes on the therapeutic seeds and sensing these physical changes in the therapeutic seeds. In one form of the invention, the therapeutic seeds are partially ferromagnetic and are caused to vibrate by a magnetic field and the vibrating therapeutic seeds are identified by reflections of ultrasonic signals transmitted to the therapeutic seeds.
