Abstract: The device provides auditory and visual stimulation to an infant or young child. The device includes a themed housing with a base portion and an upper portion. The base portion includes electronic circuitry and a drive mechanism. The upper portion houses a plurality of planar members that are drivably co-engaged. The floor of the upper portion includes a plurality of grooves in which the planar members travel, a microswitch arrangement for identifying which planar members are viewable, and a slot through which a driving member engages the planar members. The upper portion includes two or more lights for selectively illuminating the viewable planar members.

Abstract: An amusement apparatus in association with a video program and a computer for various mechanical controls that are player-operable and responsive for card value and suit generation during the course of a card game. The method for playing a card game controlled by a processor includes a first region with a visual display on a card game machine for displaying a plurality of cards. There is a second region with a visual display on the card game machine for presenting a card selection display of card value and suit indicia. The game operates with the processor to draw cards that appear in the first region. Card selection input is received through the second region for display on the first region of the visual display. There is a player control interface for user selection input that effects the selection of cards at the second region.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for extruding foam through an orifice, including a foam canister, a nozzle attached to the foam canister, an actuator attached to the foam canister, a cover secured to the soap foam canister having one or more orifices on the outer surface of the cover. The apparatus includes a plurality of selectable extrusion attachments operable with the nozzle. A method of extruding foam through orifices provides ornamental foam canister having the cover actuator thereon in which foam expelled into the void of the cover further extruding foam components through one or more orifices therein from which the extruded foam may be shaped for child play activities.

Abstract: A medical treatment apparatus is provided with a programmable medical device disposed at a first room location and a remote monitor and/or controller disposed at a second room location. The programmable medical device is used to administer a medical treatment to a patient, and the remote monitor/controller maybe used to monitor the operation of the medical device, control the operation of the medical device, and/or to transfer data from the medical device to the remote monitor/controller. The apparatus may allow voice communication between the remote monitor/controller and the patient who is receiving treatment via the medical device while the medical device is being monitored and/or controlled from the remote location. The remote monitor/controller may also include means for determining the type of medical device to which it is connected. The programmable medical device includes various types of sensors for generating patient medical condition data which is transmitted to the remote monitor/controller.
