Publication number: 20120326502Abstract: An apparatus for eliminating electricity leakage from an electronic device connected to a power supply, while the electronic device is in switched-off or stand-by state is disclosed. The apparatus comprises of a charging module connected to at least one rechargeable battery for selectively providing electricity from the power supply to the rechargeable battery while the electronic device is in switched-on state. An isolation module is provided for isolating the power supply from the electronic device while the electronic device is in switched-off or standby state and restoring the power supply when the electronic device is in switched-on state. A back up module connected to the rechargeable battery, providing power to at least one active component from the rechargeable battery such that at least one active component remains operational even when the electronic device is in switched-off or standby state.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2012Publication date: December 27, 2012Inventors: Hap NGUYEN, John J.

Publication number: 20120220213Abstract: The vehicle safety system selectively deactivates a driver's cellular telephone when the driver is ready to drive his or her vehicle. The vehicle safety system first determines the proximity between the cellular telephone and the driver's seat of the vehicle. An identification tag is mounted on or in the vicinity of the driver's seat. The identification tag is sensed by a sensor to determine proximity. A gear state of the vehicle is then determined and transmitted to a call authorization module associated with the cellular telephone. The sensor for sensing the identification tag is also associated with the call authorization module. The call authorization module selectively deactivates the cellular telephone when the cellular telephone is located within a pre-set range from the driver's seat of the vehicle and the gear state of the vehicle is such that the vehicle may be driven under power.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 11, 2012Publication date: August 30, 2012Inventors: John J.
