Abstract: Exemplary embodiments of the present invention are directed to a system for monitoring, recording, and analyzing driver activity. An exemplary system comprises a sensor module configured to receive data from one or more sensors that measure acceleration or deceleration associated with a vehicle. A stop detection module is configured to receive the sensor module data, process the sensor module data, and determine an abrupt acceleration or deceleration event. A location module is configured to retrieve the location of the vehicle simultaneous with an abrupt acceleration or deceleration event. The system stores the location of the abrupt acceleration or deceleration event in an event record in an event database.

Abstract: Online retailers may operate one or more services configured to detect requests generated by automated agents. A CAPTCHA may be transmitted in response to requests generated by automated agents. The CAPTCHAs may be included in a modal pop-up box configured to be displayed by a client application displaying a webpage to a customer of the online retailer. Furthermore, the CAPTCHAs included in the modal pop-up box may be rendered inactive and caused not to be displayed by client application executing the webpage. Rendering the CAPTCHAs inactive may provide an additional signal which may be sued to update one or more automated agent detection models.

Abstract: This invention relates to prognostic signatures, and compositions and methods for determining the prognosis of cancer in a patient, particularly for colorectal cancer. Specifically, this invention relates to the use of genetic markers for the prediction of the prognosis of cancer, such as colorectal cancer, based on signatures of genetic markers. In various aspects, the invention relates to a method of predicting the likelihood of long-term survival of a cancer patient, a method of determining a treatment regime for a cancer patient, a method of preparing a treatment modality for a cancer patient, among other methods as well as kits and devices for carrying out these methods.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments of the present invention are directed to a vehicle to vehicle communication system for mounting to a vehicle including an emitter in communication with a receiver. The emitter includes an emf source configured to transmit a directional beam distal to the vehicle, wherein the beam is transmitted such that it has less than a pre-configured signal strength outside a configured width. The receiver is in communication with the emitter, the emitter configured to transmit the beam in response to signal input to the receiver from a distal vehicle to vehicle communication system.

Abstract: A reactor (9) for the pyrolysis of carbon-containing waste material such as rubber chips includes a cylindrical air-tight reactor vessel (10) which has an inlet through which rubber chips (4) are introduced into the reactor vessel and an outlet (60) through which oil distillate can be discharged therefrom. The reactor vessel has a cooling jacket through which cooling water flows for cooling an inner shell (40) of the vessel. The chips (4) are deposited onto a support tray (70) and displaced towards a rear end of the reactor vessel by a chain conveyer (89). The chips (4) are heated on the tray (40) causing decomposition of the chips into a vapor and amorphous carbon. The vapor condenses when it contacts the inner shell (40) and runs down the sides of the vessel (10) towards a lower side thereof before being discharged through the outlet (60).

Abstract: A latchable lunchbox container having a moulded lid (1), a plurality of moulded latch forms (3) each pivotally supported from the moulded lid (1), and a container (2) closable by the moulded lid (1). Each latch (3) is pivotally supported by a clip fit between the moulded lid (1) and the latch (3). The lid moulding (1) includes at least one formation (8) for each latch (3) whereby an abutment will occur that will reduce the likelihood of prising of a latch from the lid moulding as a result of the latch moving upwardly about its pivot axis. Each latch provides at least one cylindrical surface to be carried in at least one click fit feature therefor thereby to provide a journalled bearing defining the pivot axis.

Abstract: A surveillance system using an array of detectors onto which energy from the scene under surveillance is focused can indicate the direction of an event that has been recognized. The invention uses two or more arrays to locate events in three dimensions, and to define regions within the three dimensional space being surveyed. The events are located by detecting which elements from the respective arrays are stimulated by the occurrence of an event, and determining the location of the event to be at the intersection of the fields of view of the stimulated elements.

Abstract: A vehicle carpet system has a continuous carpet base molded to the shape of the vehicle floor in which it is to be installed. The carpet base includes at least one layer of a molded noise-attenuating material, at least one molded recess formed therein. A removable acoustic carpet module fitted into the at least one recess and held in place by a releasable retainer.

Abstract: An optical detection system for forming an image of a field of view in an object plane onto an image plane in which the electromagnetic radiation image is transmitted to a detector array at the image plane via an optical distorting element such as a reflector 11, so as to impose a non linear relationship between areas in the image and object planes.
