  • Patent number: 11042753
    Abstract: This invention includes a framework and method to enable the transformation of video content into a format that allows for mapping and, hence, identification of individual sections (scene segments or otherwise) of the media content. It includes a means of ingesting images and video frames into a database. Consumer products can be matched with the images and/or objects in the images. A consumer can access the content by submitting a digital image taken on a mobile device. One or more objects in the user submitted image can be matched with products and/or commercial/promotional materials.

  • Patent number: 10659649
    Abstract: A toner container installable in an image forming device having a controller according to one example embodiment includes a housing having a reservoir for storing toner. A chip is positioned on the housing and configured to receive a first write command from the controller of the image forming device. The chip is further configured to determine whether a transmission cycle bit of the first write command matches a transmission cycle bit of a second write command received by the chip from the controller of the image forming device previous to the first write command. The chip is further configured to resend to the controller of the image forming device a response to the second write command if the transmission cycle bit of the first write command matches the transmission cycle bit of the second write command.

  • Patent number: 10649702
    Abstract: A toner container installable in an image forming device having a controller according to one example embodiment includes a housing having a reservoir for storing toner. A chip is positioned on the housing and configured to, after sending a first busy response to the controller of the image forming device, receive a second write command from the controller of the image forming device that is abbreviated relative to a first write command received from the controller of the image forming device and that requests the chip to send a response to the first write command. The chip is further configured to send a response to the first write command to the controller of the image forming device if upon receiving a read command corresponding to the second write command the chip has completed processing the first write command.

  • Publication number: 20190339884
    Abstract: An example component circuitry for a supply item including an example method for restricting read access to content in the component circuitry are disclosed. In the method, a command for reading data stored in a non-volatile portion of a memory of the supply item is received and depending upon whether the number of times that the command has been received exceeds a predetermined limit, processing the command. The component circuitry has a non-volatile memory and a processor, whereupon the encrypted data may be read from the non-volatile memory if the number of times that the command is received by the processor has not reached a predetermined limit.

  • Patent number: 8103712
    Abstract: A method for performing a division operation in a system includes a) determining an approximate quotient of a numerator value and a denominator value; b) determining an initial error of the approximate quotient; c) determining a quotient adjustment value based on the initial error; d) determining whether to apply the quotient adjustment value to the approximate quotient; e) if the determination at d) is YES, then applying the quotient adjustment value to the approximate quotient; f) determining an iterative error of the approximate quotient; g) updating the quotient adjustment value based on the iterative error; h) repeating acts d) through g) until the determination at d) is NO, thereby determining a final value for the approximate quotient; i) generating an integer quotient based on the final value of the approximate quotient; and j) using the integer quotient with regard to at least one aspect of the system.

  • Publication number: 20070144106
    Abstract: As installation clip for use in supporting a window, such as a mulled window, during installation in a building wall opening, and reinforcing the window after installation against the pressures of wind or the like. The installation clip is of unitary construction with a generally flat base portion, and a set of counterextending, raised tab portions projecting upwardly and outwardly from one side of the base portion. The height and width of the raised tab portions are selected to conform substantially to the dimensions of a recess in the bottom frame member of the window with which the clip is to be used. The installation clip is mounted to the sill structure of the building wall opening, with its tab portions facing into the center of the opening, and the window is inserted into the opening onto the mounted clip. The raised tab portions of the clip engage in the recess in the window bottom frame, and hold the window in place while it is permanently secured in the opening by conventional means.

  • Patent number: 7013435
    Abstract: A method and system of providing a three dimensional spatial user interface (SUI) to a user of a computing device. The SUI may be manipulated in three dimensions and contains a plurality of portals. A portal may contain a sensory cue that provides a reminder as to the content of the portal. Upon selection of a portal, an application program associated with the cue in the portal is invoked. Portals may also contain further instances of the SUI of the present invention, thus providing hierarchical depth. In the preferred embodiment, the SUI is implemented as a sphere and may be viewed from an external or internal perspective.

  • Publication number: 20050144845
    Abstract: A high structural load window sash latch includes a load applying housing wrap that extends around the interior face of a window sash. The housing wrap transfers the majority of positive forces incident upon the sash to a latch housing, where the forces are transferred to a latch bolt and then to the window jamb. Further, two load-bearing screws also secure the latch housing to the sash, while a hold down screw prevents the housing from lifting.

  • Publication number: 20050016066
    Abstract: An impact resistant tilt window assembly includes a window frame with side jambs that have legs that extend in the direction of the exterior of the frame, an upper sash, a lower sash that moves vertically and tilts inwardly and tilt latch assemblies that are positioned on the lower sash, each tilt latch assembly includes a latch bolt with a nose end that includes a notch that is sized to engage the associated jamb leg when the lower sash is in a vertical orientation. The notch has an interior leg that moves along an interior side of the jamb leg and an exterior leg that extends behind an exterior side of the jamb leg and moves along the jamb leg when the sash moves vertically. The window assembly may further include U-shaped reinforcing inserts that are positioned within the jambs such that the tilt latch assemblies engage the inserts when the lower sash is in the closed position.
