Abstract: The Privacy Adapter For Venetian Blinds allows for independent operation of an upper portion of said blinds and a lower portion of same. This invention pertains to venetian and mini blinds as are used to provide shade and cover for windows and openings to allow light and access in buildings. Traditional blinds allow for filtering and blocking of light in said openings. This, however, leaves a lot to be desired in terms of allowing a portion of the blinds to be selectively operated and another portion of said blinds to be independently operated.

Abstract: The Gyst Interaction Driven User Interface (Gyst Technology) allows a Human-Computer Interaction System to measure the interaction skill and/or interaction behavior exhibited by a human user via input devices and to adjust the output to the output devices accordingly. The measurement of user performance with the Gyst Technology is a new and improved method over earlier technologies and accounts for the users interaction skill, the amount of time they dwell on particular content, their speed of response generation, accuracy of response generation and other factors, any or all of which can be used to personalize the user experience in real time. The purpose of Gyst Technology is to provide a user experience that is tailored to the skills, preferences, abilities, optimal interaction skill, and other personal attributes of the user and their environment automatically via a machine-learned process. This provides a more cost effective and improved experience for the user.

Abstract: A connection apparatus for controlling the supply of electrical power to a load, the connection apparatus comprising first and second electrically controllable devices connected in parallel to each other and in series with the load; wherein the first and second electrically controllable devices are dissimilar, and where a safe operating area product of voltage, current and safe operating area time for the first device is greater than the product of voltage, current and the same safe operating area time for the second device, and an on state resistance for the second device is less than an on state resistance for the first device, and where a controller is provided to use the first device for a first period of time to power up the load, and thereafter the second device is used to maintain power to the load.

Abstract: This invention allows a Voice System to adapt to the speaking accent of the user. This means that users of the system would automatically hear the voice messages played by the Voice System in the same accent that they are likely to be speaking in. The purpose of the invention is to permit more fluid, productive, user friendly and shorter interactions with IVR and other Voice Systems.
