Patent number: 8146799Abstract: Embodiments provide product information to a person viewing a product by capturing a product identifier image associated with the product, determining a product identifier from the image, and retrieving product information from a product database using the product identifier. In some cases the product information is filtered prior to display using a profile that includes criteria set by the user. Embodiments provide product information via a handheld computing device, which in some cases can be a mobile phone or other such device that also includes a camera for capturing product identifier images.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2010Date of Patent: April 3, 2012Assignee: General Mills, Inc.Inventors: Thomas P.

Patent number: 6706783Abstract: A water-based, erasable marking composition comprising 1-86% by weight water, 0.3-38% by weight pigment, 13-45% by weight polyurethane, and 0-85% by weight glycerin, wherein said polyurethane has a viscosity which increases by at least a factor of 10 when said polyurethane is dried from a 30% dispersion of said polyurethane in water to a 65% polyurethane dispersion in water. The present invention also includes an application instrument comprising an outer body having a first end, an applicator at the first end of the outer body, a reservoir included within the outer body and in fluid communication with the applicator, and a water-based, erasable marking composition within the reservoir. The water-based, erasable marking composition comprises the composition of the invention.Type: GrantFiled: October 10, 2001Date of Patent: March 16, 2004Assignee: Binney & SmithInventors: Keith J. Allison, Richard J. Kaiser

Patent number: 6124377Abstract: A marking system that advantageously minimizes messiness during use is disclosed. The marking system comprises a marking composition comprising at least one color precursor in the form of a leuco dye. A marking instrument can be utilized to store the marking composition and/or apply the marking composition to a desired substrate. The substrate is provided with a coating comprising at least one color-triggering developer. Upon application of the leuco dye to the substrate, a chromophore, and hence, color, is formed. If, however, color is inadvertently triggered on an unintended surface, thereby resulting in an unwanted stain, the stain can be readily removed.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 1998Date of Patent: September 26, 2000Assignee: Binney & Smith Inc.Inventors: Richard J. Kaiser, Arthur N. Urbanski
