Patent number: 10219695Abstract: A first light source producing a first light beam with a first intensity and a second light source producing a second light beam with a second intensity. A light filter device receives the first light beam and transmits a filtered portion of the first light beam. A first angling device reflects the filtered portion of the first light beam in a first angled direction and a second angling device reflects the second light beam in a second angled direction. A mirror receives and in turn reflects the filtered portion of the first light beam reflected by the first angling device and the second light beam reflected by the second angling device to form a converged light beam with a third intensity.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2017Date of Patent: March 5, 2019Assignee: DOHENY EYE INSTITUTEInventors: Prashant Bhadri, James Lescoulie, Sophia Fang, Matthew McCormick, Ralph Kerns, Mark Humayun, Aaron Barnes

Publication number: 20090281888Abstract: A method and apparatus that determine a time window based on a presentation schedule for a multimedia content in response to receiving the presentation schedule is described herein. The multimedia content is played according to the presentation schedule at a predetermined location. During the time window, an interactive user interface pattern is presented within a vicinity of the predetermined location. In response to receiving a user input via the interactive user interface pattern, a reward is generated during the time window.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 25, 2008Publication date: November 12, 2009Inventors: Li-Cheng Richard Zai, Xinyu Zang, Sophia Fang-Jung Liu, Mao-Jung Chen

Publication number: 20090153348Abstract: A method and apparatus that select presentation information for an electronic sign wirelessly placed within a proximity of one or more object items are described herein. The electronic sign displays the presentation information. An alert message is determined in response to a signal received from the electronic sign according to objects items in proximity locations of the electronic sign. The determined alert message is sent to the electronic sign to replace the displayed presentation information.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 11, 2008Publication date: June 18, 2009Inventors: Li-Cheng Richard Zai, Xinyu Zang, Sophia Fang-Jung Liu

Publication number: 20090016075Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to illumination techniques that include the use of one or more sets of Light Emitting Diodes or LEDs as light sources in a console/module system. The LED light sources can be utilized to produce a light beams with a specified/combination of intensity and spectrum. Of course, embodiments according to the present disclosure are not limited to one intensity/spectrum but multiple combinations of intensity and spectrum can be implemented. Such systems/methods can be implemented with various optical elements including filter, lenses, mirrors, and/or optical fibers. The system is controlled by voice activation, touch screen, footswitch or wireless communication. The LEDs might also be pulsed as a driving system. The optical fiber cable is tethered to the control.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 14, 2008Publication date: January 15, 2009Applicant: Doheny Eye InstituteInventors: Prashant Bhadri, Ralph Kerns, Mark S. Humayun, Charles DeBoer, Matthew McCormick, Sophia Fang

Publication number: 20080284566Abstract: A method and an apparatus for determining the proximity between an electronic sign and one or more object items to transmit presentation information to the electronic sign are described. The determination may be based on a signal wirelessly generated from the electronic sign. The presentation information displayed at the electronic sign may describe the one or more object items. Locations of the one or more object items may be determined based on wirelessly received identifiers of the one or more objects items, a portable wireless device, and the electronic sign.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 25, 2007Publication date: November 20, 2008Inventors: Li-Cheng Richard Zai, Xinyu Harry Zang, Sophia Fang-Jung Liu

Patent number: 6286129Abstract: A system, method, and article of manufacture is provided for compiling visual primitives of a transaction flow used by a transaction processing system. Visual primitives of the transaction flow are compiled into multiple routing instructions, which may be stored in a routing table. The routing instructions are then provided to the transaction processing system. The routing instructions are stored in a database contained in the transaction processing system. The routing table is converted into a native language of the transaction processing system. The system is also capable of accessing a series of routing instructions from a transaction processing system, compiling the routing instructions into visual primitives of the transaction flow, and displaying the visual primitives of the transaction flow on a visual display.Type: GrantFiled: December 2, 1997Date of Patent: September 4, 2001Assignee: Aspect CommunicationsInventors: Suresh K. Agarwal, Roy S. Ho, Rosemary Glavin, Sophia Fang-Jung Liu
