  • Patent number: 9805356
    Abstract: A system for personalizing printed cards or scrapbooks with web-based links comprises a point of sale display of greeting cards or scrapbooks and a plurality of affixable media. Each of the affixable media comprise a scannable code and a description of the online content that will be displayed when the code is scanned by a recipient. A purchaser is able to create a personalized card or scrapbook by selecting a card or scrapbook from the point of sale display, selecting a scannable code based on its associated description, and then affixing the selected scannable code to the selected card or scrapbook, thereby creating a personalized card or scrapbook that directs the recipient to online content chosen by the purchaser from the set of options provided by the various affixable media.

  • Patent number: 9254086
    Abstract: A wireless diagnostic sensor link for providing wireless communication between a signal source and a monitoring device. The wireless diagnostic sensor link includes a signal input device operable for receiving a signal from the signal source in a first communication protocol in the form of an analog signal, converting the analog signal to a digital signal, and transmitting the digital signal in the form of a wireless communication protocol. The wireless diagnostic sensor link also includes a signal output device, which receives the digital signal. The signal output device is in electrical communication with the monitoring device, and is also operable for communicating with the signal input device. The signal output device converts the digital signal back to an analog signal, and sends the signal to the monitoring device in the form of a second communications protocol.

  • Patent number: 7984225
    Abstract: ASCII gateway to in-vehicle system provides bi-directional translation between multiplexed motor vehicle networks and industrial control and monitoring devices. Integrated hardware and software components provide data communications between motor vehicle electronic control module networks and RS-232 serial ASCII-text capable device, for industrial control and/or industrial automation application in manufacturing or assembly operations. Communications networks (CAN, SAE or ISO protocols) implemented inside motor vehicles pass data between electronic control modules that control operation of important vehicle components like engine, transmission and brake systems, have their messages converted to RS-232 serial ASCII-text; and from RS-232 serial ASCII-text converted to motor vehicle communications network by the system. Messages to monitor and/or control vehicle networks are generated by a serial ASCII-test capable device. Multiple vehicle protocols are supported by the system.
