  • Patent number: 8221269
    Abstract: A personal golfing assistant system is comprised of software running on a PDA attached directly or remotely to a GPS receiver that enables the user to survey and/or electronically capture geophysical golf data. A handheld device connected to or integrated with a GPS receiver can instead be used. Software allows a golfer to use a handheld PDA/GPS unit during the course of play to mark a ball location automatically and/or determine the distance to golf course targets and/or objects, and to analyze golf related data and generate statistics. The system can send a set of parameters tailored for a specific course to a real time tunable GPS to adjust for optimal performance and can adjust measurements to compensate for environmental condition changes.

  • Patent number: 7487794
    Abstract: Liquefied petroleum gas is widely used in leisure time activities. Here, as liquefied petroleum gas is highly inflammable, it is important to have an indicator (19) that quickly determines whether there is leakage. The present invention relates to a new leak indicator (19) that, when an easily operated button (20) is pushed downwards into a cavity (8), indicates whether or not there is leakage. The space confined in the cavity (8) is completely closed off when the appertaining liquefied petroleum gas system is in normal operation mode.
