  • Patent number: 9390636
    Abstract: An advertising panel is disclosed which is a lightweight, portable, and foldable substrate which accepts and retains high quality graphics and photographic advertising images. The advertising panel can be used for providing advertising on the inner surface of the windshield of a vehicle. The advertising panel includes a substrate with an advertising image printed on the substrate and a light source. The light source illuminates the advertising panel from behind. A viewer exterior to the vehicle is able to see the advertising image at night because a portion of the light emitted from the light source is transmitted through both the advertising panel substrate and the advertising image.

  • Patent number: 9030956
    Abstract: Different services are provided to different users or groups of users of an aggregate endpoint in an internet protocol multimedia subsystem (IMS) network. The different users or groups of users are differentiated based on service profiles designated by different PUIDs for the different users or groups of users of each of the users or groups of users. Different services for transmission and/or receipt of packets for the different users or groups of users of the aggregate endpoint are provided, depending upon the differentiation between the different users or groups of users.

  • Patent number: 7924218
    Abstract: A method for discrimination of a target from clutter, comprising: providing phase-range data associated with a return pulse of a radar device and second phase-range data associated with a subsequent return pulse; comparing the phase-range data and the second phase-range data to obtain a difference; differentiating the differences with respect to range; and discriminating the target from the clutter by identifying coordinates from the differentiated differences satisfying velocity thresholds associated with the clutter. In one embodiment, the subsequent return pulse is drawn after skipping one or more pulses after the return pulse. In another embodiment, the subsequent return pulse is drawn successive to the return pulse. In other aspects, the invention can be a detection system and/or computer-readable medium adapted implement the method.

  • Patent number: 7236123
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a computer-readable medium having stored thereon computer-executable instructions for providing phase-range data associated with a return pulse of a radar device and second phase-range data associated with a successive return pulse of the radar device. The computer-executable instructions are preferably also for comparing the phase-range data and the second phase-range data to obtain a difference, and for differentiating the difference. In some embodiments of the invention, the computer-executable instructions are preferably also for discriminating a target from clutter by using the differentiated difference to identify coordinates satisfying a velocity threshold associated with the clutter. Embodiments of the invention preferably enable phase-coherent operation of a non-coherent radar device by processing backscattered clutter return, and in some aspects, do so using clutter distributed in range as a reference.

  • Patent number: 7010876
    Abstract: The hang tag and method for labeling products. The hang tag is composed of a digital memory encoded with product information and a connecting member which removably couples the digital memory to the product. In this way, the hang tag provides consumers with a wealth of information relating to accessories, operating instructions, general company data, customer service information, web site links, telephone contacts, and other information consumers may find useful.

  • Patent number: 6288996
    Abstract: A cut optical disk is provided. The optical disk includes a data region which may be read by and optical disk reader (CD/CD-ROM/DVD reader). Ticket/pass information as well as anti-counterfeit feature may be provided in a graphics region or in the data region or both. The data region may be provided with audio and/or video data. The data region may also have multimedia presentations which may be presented on a personal computer or through a DVD reader etc. The data region may also have data which is read for gaining access to the event or facility. The graphics region also may have machine readable features such as bar codes. Additionally, most printing techniques may be used in the graphics region to provide information and aesthetic attributes and attributes to avoid counterfeit problems. The cut optical disk includes a standard central opening (of a CD/CD-ROM/DVD type). The data region is provided in a region around the central opening. The data region may be on both sides of the disk.
