Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a prefabricated part (1) from an unmachined part (2) by means of a milling tool (3). Said milling tool (3), when plunged into the material of the unmachined part (2), is automatically tilted in the advancing direction and/or laterally to the advancing direction in relation to the immersion path (4) that deviates from the direction (5) of the milling tool (3) that is machined immediately thereafter.

Abstract: A method and a Cranial Electrical Stimulator CES for operation in a diagnosis, treatment, research, and test mode related to brain disorders, namely to mental disorders, and to neurological disorders, such as migraine and epilepsy, are disclosed. Diagnosis is based on a detected condition of passage of an electric signal via a pathway in the brain defined as passing from a first to a second electrode of a pair of electrodes from an array attached to the skull of a patient. Treatment is achieved by injecting a treatment signal in the pathway detected as having a condition. A practitioner operates a workstation of the CES that controls a signal and routing box SRB generating input signals and receiving output signal from the brain, via the skull and electrodes. The PC of the workstation controls signal input, output reception, measurement, display and storage in memory.

Abstract: A method and a Cranial Electrical Stimulator CES (4) for operation in a diagnosis, treatment, research, and test mode related to mental disorder, are disclosed. Diagnosis is based on a detected condition of passage of an electric signal via a pathway in the brain defined as passing from a first to a second electrode of a pair of electrodes from an array (12) attached to the skull (6) of a patient. Treatment is achieved by injecting a treatment signal in the pathway detected as having a condition. A practitioner (2) operates a workstation (8) of the CES (4) that controls a signal and routing box SRB (10) generating input signals and receiving output signal from the brain, via the skull (6) and electrodes (12). The PC (14) of the workstation controls signal input, output reception, measurement, display and storage in memory (15).

Abstract: Described herein is a system that enables service provider's to integrate speech functionality into their applications. A service provider maintains a set of application servers. To provide a particular speech service to a client of the application server, the application server causes the client to request the speech service from another set of servers. This set of servers is responsible for providing this speech service as well as others. Such speech services include recording digital speech data at the client, and storing the recordings. Later, the application servers may retrieve the recordings, and even more, retrieve data derived from the recordings, such as data generated through speech recognition processes.

Abstract: A method for language fluency training on a computer system having an audio output device includes invoking a web browser program, receiving a pre-recorded file including a message in a spoken language from a conversation partner, playing the message to a user seeking fluency training in the spoken language from within the web browser program on the audio output device, asynchronously with playing the message, recording a user file including a message in the spoken language from the user in response to the message from within the web browser program, outputting the user file to the conversation partner and to a language instructor, receiving an instruction file including an instruction message in the spoken language from the language instructor in response to the user message and playing the instruction message to the user from within the web browser program on the audio output device.

Abstract: A high quality sound system for installation into the bay of an existing computer including a front panel supporting a pair of speakers. A sound focussing isolation unit having a mouth opening up on the front panel is positioned between the speakers and has a throat communicating with a reverberating chamber provided by a housing located in the bay of the computer. The focussing isolation unit is constructed to prevent sound waves generated by one speaker from destructively interfering with sound waves generated by the other speaker. It also dampens mechanical vibrations of the front panel. The focussing isolation unit also focusses sound from the reverberating channel located in the bay space out through a mouth located in the front channel. Each channel is provided with an individual amplifier for two channel reception. Power to the amplifiers is provided from the computer power supplies which is first filtered to reduce noise to the amplifier circuits.
