  • Patent number: 11915821
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a medical image viewer for incorporating multi-user collaboration features, such as in-image commenting and workspace sharing. An example method includes receiving a comment location including image coordinates and comment information associated with the comment from a user device. The comment information includes a text body, identify identity information related to the user, and a comment creation date. The example method further includes determining world coordinates based on the image coordinates, and storing the world coordinates and the comment information as a subset of header attributes of the DICOM image file.

  • Patent number: 10235824
    Abstract: A reach-extending exchange device for transferring articles between a teller and a customer includes a shell. The shell comprises an annular wall that extends between a top and a bottom. An aperture that is positioned in the top of the shell is configured to selectively position at least one article in the shell. A panel that is complementary to the aperture is slidably coupled to the top of the shell. A rod, which is elongated, is coupled to and extends from the shell. The panel is positioned to slide relative to the top to selectively close the aperture to retain the at least one article in the interior space. The rod is configured to be grasped in a hand of the teller to position the shell distal from the teller so that the customer can selectively position the at least one article in the shell.

  • Patent number: 7637050
    Abstract: A fishing lure shaped like a snake that mimics the undulating, swimming action of a snake. It incorporates this original action into an extremely versatile lure specifically designed to be fished on water's surface, under water's surface, diving, bouncing around on floor bottom, and swimming back up to surface simply by adjusting rod position/retrieval speed. Furthermore, consisting of not only replaceable (soft plastic) snake bodies, but replaceable (soft plastic) lizard bodies and replaceable (soft plastic) frog bodies as well that all attach to the same hard plastic head and neck via a snap-on/squeeze-off connection. Furthermore, it's design enables each body to have it's own swimming action. The snake body, aforementioned, undulates like a real snake swimming. The lizard body wiggles and sways like a real lizard swimming. And the frog body wobbles and kicks it's legs like a real frog swimming.

  • Patent number: 6050022
    Abstract: A self-propelled fishing lure shaped like a grasshopper and having a pair of articulated legs extending from its opposite sides. The legs are connected to a wind-up motor within the body which moves them at pulsed intervals. Pulsed movement of the outer portions is both forward and away from the body thereby affecting a swimming motion to drive the lure forward through the water. A pin, having an eyelet at its outer end for fastening to a fishing line, extends into the motor and may be pulled outwardly to release the motor and bring movement to the legs.
