  • Patent number: 9477966
    Abstract: A method, system, and computer-readable storage medium are disclosed for accurately estimating the audience of digital content. A plurality of user interactions occurring on a digital device are received, wherein digital content is displayed on the digital device. Based on the plurality of user interactions, a total number of unique viewers of the digital content on the digital device is estimated.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 4492246
    Abstract: A transducer for converting an electrical current signal to a pneumatic pressure. A solid state element such as piezo-electric flapper element 48 is used to vary the pressure drop through a nozzle 46 to provide a controlled pressure supply 28. A micro-power electronic circuit 59 controls the flapper. A solid state pressure sensor 24 detects the output pressure and provides a feedback signal for use in a negative feedback loop to control the flapper element. The flapper element may be triangularly shaped to reduce its responsiveness to relatively low frequency mechanical vibrations. In a exemplary embodiment, where intrinsic safety requirements limit terminal voltages, the flapper element is driven by a transconductance amplifier 94 which is powered through a shunt regulator 82 and a voltage tripler 92. The shunt regulator provides operating potentials which are derived from the signal current.
