  • Patent number: 9785806
    Abstract: A radio frequency identification (RFID) tag includes a power source, a transmitter to transmit a unique identifier, and a receiver operatively coupled to the transmitter and to receive low-frequency signals from an active RFID transceiver located in the vicinity. The transmitter is activated by the power source responsive to the receiver receiving a wake up command at a predetermined low frequency from the active RFID transceiver. An RFID transceiver includes an antenna, non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions and a transmitter to transmit low-frequency signals to RFID tags through the antenna. A processing device of the RFID transceiver can execute the instructions to insert a station identifier (ID) into the low-frequency signals that direct the RFID tags to retransmit the station ID, wherein the station ID identifies an approximate location of the RFID tags.

  • Publication number: 20170061003
    Abstract: A system, method and device are provided, for creating multimedia playlists. A visual module aggregates at least one image file targeted from one or more visual media fields. A music module aggregates multiple audio files targeted from one or more audio media fields. A time module registers allocated mix duration and references elapsed mix duration versus the allocated mix duration, A news module aggregates topical information targeted from one or more news fields, pertaining to at least one of the sound files, as the sound file is added to the playlist. A publishing module compiles the aggregated visual and sound files, respectively, while updating the aggregated news. Provided the elapsed mix duration is less than or equal to the allocated mix duration, a discrete playlist is displayed on a User interface console as the sound files are played, when prompted by the system or the User.

  • Patent number: 9561425
    Abstract: A compression board apparatus of a generally planar surface has an insert that compresses to a position that is flat or flush with a top surface of the board, when a load is applied to the top surface of the board. When the load is removed, the insert releases, thereby expanding to a released position. The insert is arranged to both extend above the top surface of the board and extend below a bottom surface of the board. The insert may be secured by at least locking mechanism and enables a user who applies a load to the top surface of the board to maintain contact with the board's surface, even in an airborne position and when the board is in a non-planar position.

  • Publication number: 20160367951
    Abstract: A steam dispersion system including insulation is disclosed. The steam dispersion system may include a steam dispersion tube with at least one opening defined on an outer surface of the steam dispersion tube and a hollow interior. The insulation covers at least a portion of the steam dispersion tube, the insulation defining an opening aligned with the opening of the steam dispersion tube, wherein the insulation meets 25/50 flame/smoke indexes for UL723/ASTM E-84 and has a thermal conductivity less than about 0.35 Watts/m-K (2.4 in-hr/ft?2 deg F.). A nozzle defining a throughhole may be placed within the opening of the steam dispersion tube, the throughhole being in fluid communication with the hollow interior of the steam dispersion tube to provide a steam exit.

  • Patent number: 8997727
    Abstract: A projectile shooter toy has a body with a sidewall forming a space for holding a projectile in a loaded state and a pathway leading away from the space and along which the projectile moves in a forward direction. An actuator is arranged to engage the projectile to move the projectile forward along the pathway. At least two pinching members are spaced forwardly along the pathway from the actuator. The pinching members are separate from, and movable relative to, the actuator and the sidewall, and are configured to exert a force on the projectile as the projectile passes between the at least two pinching members.
