  • Patent number: 10128890
    Abstract: Some embodiments include a privacy/security apparatus for a portable communication device that includes a housing assembly configured to at least partially attenuate at least one of sound energy, acoustic energy, and electromagnetic energy including light, optical, and IR energy and RF radiation from passing through the housing assembly. The housing assembly includes a Faraday cage with two or more portions, and at least one protective shell coupled to or forming at least one aperture. The at least one aperture is configured and arranged to at least partially enclose the portable communication device so that at least a portion of the portable communication device is positioned within at least one portion of the Faraday cage, and the at least one seal coupled or integrated with the protective shell. The housing assembly can be an articulating assembly, a sliding assembly, and can include an active acoustic jamming or passive acoustic attenuation element.

  • Patent number: 9536163
    Abstract: An object position and orientation detection system and in particular one which is capable of describing observed movement in 3 dimensions. In one example, a spherical patterned marker with concentric rings is imaged using one or more digital cameras, and the resulting images are processed to determine the position and orientation of an object to which the patterned marker is attached. The method of optical tracking employed by the system allows motion to be determined in six degrees of freedom. In conjunction with a suitable display, such as a projector, an interactive white board or similar application can be realized.

  • Patent number: 9317258
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to model validation for modeling tools and provide a novel and non-obvious method, system and computer program product for dynamic validation of models using constraint targets. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for dynamic validation of models using constraint targets can be provided. The method can include defining constraint targets on object validation in a model within a MDD tool to object instances affected by a change in another object in the model, detecting a change in an object instance in the model in the MDD tool, and validating only other object instances in the model that are affected by the detected change.

  • Patent number: 9304983
    Abstract: The present invention is a method, system and framework for generating and processing XForms documents. Utilizing the method, system and framework of the present invention, developers need only write loosely coupled components that implement the minimal application-specific interface code, and the method, system and framework coordinates the generation and processing based on a description of the form's lifecycle. It also allows developers to reuse components created for other integrations that implemented the framework. The advantage of the method, system and framework is to significantly reduce development effort to integrate XForms with a vast number of applications, while all known solutions are specific to a single integration case.

  • Publication number: 20160024442
    Abstract: This invention relates to novel whitening agents for cellulosic substrates. The whitening agents are comprised of at least two components: at least one chromophore component and at least one polymeric component. Suitable chromophore components generally fluoresce blue, red, violet, or purple color when exposed to ultraviolet light, or they may absorb light to reflect these same shades. The whitening agents are further characterized by having a dispersion component value of the Hansen Solubility Parameter of less than or equal to about 17 MPa0.5. This invention also relates to laundry care compositions including but not limited to liquid and/or powder laundry detergent formulations and rinse added fabric softening (RAFS) compositions that comprise such whitening agents.
