  • Patent number: 10612046
    Abstract: A plant activator composition increases the concentration of terpenes and terpinoids in aromatic plant oils, and hence resulting in an increased concentration of terpene and terpinoids in the harvested dried plant or fruit. The composition contains one of more bio-active compounds that are optionally extracted from plants selected from one or more of the group consisting of mango, citrus (including grapefruit), Catharanthus roseus and Pelargonium odoratissimum, but alternatively may include one or more synthetic compounds selected from the group consisting of geranyl acetate, geraniol, beta-sitosterol, alpha-amyrin, beta amyrin, carotenoid, geranyl acetate, alpha-humulene, mevalonate kinase and geranyl. Depending on the type of plant being treated, the formulation is added during watering and feeding in optimum doses during the vegetative growth, flowering, and fruit set and/or swell stages.

  • Patent number: 10381046
    Abstract: Audio/video recorders are presented for recording audio and video of various types of proceedings, including court proceedings. In some examples, audio/video recorders may obtain case information associated with a case identifier from a case management database, and associate at least some of the case information with one or more audio channel inputs of the audio interface. In some examples, audio/video recorders may associate a speaker with an audio channel input of the audio interface, determine that an amplitude of an audio signal received at the audio channel input is above a threshold, determine a time when the amplitude of the audio signal at the audio channel was determined to be above the threshold, and generate metadata as a timeline indicating that the first speaker began speaking at the first time.

  • Publication number: 20060227523
    Abstract: The present invention incorporates electronic components into an electronic core structure that may be readily hot laminated by existing processes. The structure may include multiple desired electronic components, such as a display, battery or other power source, integrated circuits, switches, magnetic stripe emulator, antenna, smart chips or other input devices. The structure includes laminated buffer layers to bridge layers and compensate for variation in electronic component dimensions. The structure may also incorporate battery packaging as part of the core layer structure and use printed electronic circuitry as part of the electronic core layers to impart the desired characteristics. A variety of components may be incorporated in the structure.

  • Publication number: 20060227669
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a thin, layered, variable label structure with built-in electronic functionality. The display and/or other functional elements in the structure may be formed by printing processes. The label structure includes a thin, layered structure with an active display, comprising a base layer and a cover layer of material and a display component situated between the base layer and the cover layer. The display is formed with a layer of electrochromic ink and a pair of spaced apart electrodes. The cover layer includes a window to allow for the layer of electrochromic ink to be visible through the cover layer. The label also is configured to respond to an actuating event by completing an electrical connection between a power source and the pair of spaced apart electrodes of the display component, thereby causing the display to change its appearance.
