Publication number: 20210176289Abstract: An approach to delivering media content to a client computing device of a recipient is described. A server system is provided that is arranged to receive a request identifying a media content segment, of a media content item comprising a plurality of identifiable media content segments, and a recipient. In response to the request, the server system uses recipient identification information to generate a modified version of the media content segment that is attributable to the recipient. The server system then delivers the modified version of the media content segment to the client computing device.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2020Publication date: June 10, 2021Inventors: Steven FRANKLIN, Elizabeth STONE, Christopher BAYLISS

Publication number: 20190362405Abstract: This application concerns comparing versions of an audiovisual product. An apparatus is provided that identifies an audio fingerprint associated with a temporal location within a first version of an audiovisual product and searches for a matching audio fingerprint associated with a temporal location within a second version of the product. If a match is found, it is determined whether a region comprising the temporal location of the first version matches a corresponding region comprising the temporal location of the second version by comparing the versions progressively away from the respective temporal locations to identify further matching audio fingerprints. If a matching region is determined, an indication of the temporal location of the respective matching region is stored in a map representing at least one of the first and second versions. The process is repeated for other audio fingerprints of the first version at temporal locations outside of any matching region(s).Type: ApplicationFiled: May 23, 2019Publication date: November 28, 2019Inventor: Elizabeth STONE

Publication number: 20190313604Abstract: A collapsible pet feeder apparatus for holding pet food or water, comprised of a collapsible storage compartment adapted to be expanded to an elongated state for storing pet food or water, a bowl portion positioned underneath the opening in the bottom portion of the collapsible storage compartment for holding pet food or water and wherein the bowl portion extends away from a side of the collapsible storage compartment, an angled slide portion positioned underneath the opening in the bottom portion of the collapsible storage compartment for facilitating the movement of pet food or water from the collapsible storage compartment to a distal end of the bowl portion. In operation, gravity provides force to move the food or water from the storage compartment into the bowl, when the bowl is not full.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 17, 2018Publication date: October 17, 2019Inventors: John James Stone, Amy Elizabeth Stone

Patent number: 8629973Abstract: A lithographic apparatus including a uniformity correction system is disclosed. Fingers move into and out of intersection with a radiation beam to correct an intensity of the radiation beam. Actuating devices are coupled to the fingers. A width of a tip of each of the fingers is half that of a width of the actuating devices. Systems and methods compensate for uniformity drift. An illumination slit uniformity caused by system drift is measured. First positions of uniformity compensators are determined based on the uniformity. Uniformity compensators are moved to the first respective positions. A substrate is exposed.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2010Date of Patent: January 14, 2014Assignees: ASML Holding N.V., ASML Netherlands B.V.Inventors: Richard Carl Zimmerman, Hendrikus Robertus Marie Van Greevenbroek, Peter C. Kochersperger, Todd R. Downey, Elizabeth Stone, Szilard Istvan Csiszar, Frederick Kubick, Olga Vladimirsky

Patent number: 7333176Abstract: A system and method for uniformity correction such that a defined uniformity specification is met while minimizing a set of selected constraints is provided. The system includes illumination optics, an opto-mechanical correction system, a contrast device, projection optics and a correction module coupled to the correction system. The correction system includes a plurality of adjustable components such as fingers. The correction module is configured to determine adjustments to the components to correct uniformity. A method for discretizing the continuous intensity integral is also provided. The illumination slot is divided into a grid having multiple grid points. “pupils” are then superimposed onto the grid. Multiple second grids are also defined. Each ““pupil”” is mapped to a second grid such that the center of the second grid is coincident with the ““pupil”” center. The continuous intensity integral is then discretized using the first grid, plurality of second grids, and ““pupil”” mappings.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 2006Date of Patent: February 19, 2008Assignee: ASML Holding N.V.Inventors: Roberto B. Wiener, Alexander Kremer, Elizabeth Stone, Richard Zimmerman

Patent number: 6105186Abstract: A reversible multilayer decorative trim strip for comforters, quilts, and the like includes one or more decorative non-linearly patterned edges. The trim strip is removably fastened to the underside of the comforter and folded over the comforter's edge so that a decorative portion of the trim strip overlies the top side of the comforter. In a bedding arrangement, the comforter has an edge portion which substantially overlies an edge of the top surface of a bed, and the trim strip substantially completely covers the edge portion of the comforter. In an alternative configuration, the trim strip is connected directly to a top portion of the comforter either permanently or in a removable fashion.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 1999Date of Patent: August 22, 2000Inventor: Lou Ann Elizabeth Stone Munson
