Publication number: 20070103543Abstract: The present invention provides a 360 degree panoramic IP network camera system. Analog panoramic data is obtained by an imaging subsystem, which is then digitized, processed, encoded, and streamed by a control subsystem in accordance with user input through a graphical user interface. Access to and control of the imaging data may be provided through a web server. The web server enables users across a network to access the imaging data via a web browser-based user interface. Different types and configurations of panoramic images may be generated, processed, stored and displayed for use in a wide variety of application. A video analyzer may also be employed for post processing of data to direct image capture and other information gathering.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 7, 2006Publication date: May 10, 2007Applicant: Polar Industries, Inc.Inventors: Geoffrey Anderson, Adrian Parvulescu

Patent number: 5960363Abstract: Tone generating apparatus for a cellular telephone simulates those tones normally sensed by a user of a conventional land-line telephone. The cellular telephone is adapted to communicate with a base station via a service provider which provides different types of service, such as HOME service, ROAM service, or alternate HOME service. A progress tone generator is actuable to generate for the user selected dial tone indications as a function of the detected type of service provided by the service provider. In addition, when the keypad of the cellular telephone is operated, digit tones identifying the actuation of the respective keys are generated as is digit data which represents those keys; the digit data being transmitted to the base station to dial a respective telephone number. A warning indication, such as a distinctive tone, is generated in the event that the digit data does not represent a valid telephone number.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 1996Date of Patent: September 28, 1999Assignees: Sony Corporation, Sony Electronics, Inc.Inventors: Semyon Mizikovsky, Geoffrey Anderson, Gerard Wahl, Peter Douma, Masaaki Akahane
