Abstract: A gate for regulating access in a transit system is disclosed. The gate comprises a movable barrier, secured storage, an RFID card reader, a first processing unit that processes a set of digits from an RFID credential, generates and transmits a hash value of the set of digits, and transmits a first bin. The gate comprises a memory, having a higher capacity than the secured storage, and a second processing unit, which sends validity information for a plurality of second bins having larger number of digits than the first bin, the validity information indicates which of the plurality of second bins is valid, check if the hash value is member of first list. If the hash value is on the first list, opening of the movable barrier is regulated and if a second bin from the plurality of second bins corresponding to the RFID credential is invalid, opening is denied.

Abstract: A new device attached to a Smartphone has been invented to provide objective vision screening of young children including infants and newborns. The inventive device includes a main plane body which haves a cylindrical container for holding the optical elements and a house for holding the beam splitter. The main plane body is attached to a Smartphone. While the optical elements making the streak of light beam and moving it across the pupils of children, the camera of a Smartphone records the relative movement of the retinal reflex of the children eyes, which gives the information of refractive status, clarity of refractive media, alignment of the both eyes and other conditions of the eyes that may cause amblyopia. The principal of this device is similar to conventional streak retinoscopy, but it examines both eyes simultaneously and has more advantages.

Abstract: A method and system for constructing a database driven website is disclosed. The method and system include storing each web page as a database record having fields that reference a layout template and content, and storing the layout template and the content as database records. The method and system further include displaying each web page by using the fields in the corresponding database record to access the layout template and content records for display.

Abstract: A method and system for creating a new website from an existing website is disclosed. The existing website comprises a plurality of content items, wherein at least a portion of the content items include a reference link to other content items. The method and system include storing each of the content items in a first table, where each of the content items is represented by a content ID. Each of the content items are then duplicated in the table and a new content ID is assigned to each of the duplicate content items. Next, the content ID of each content item and the content ID of the corresponding duplicate content item are inserted into a lookup table as a source ID and a destination ID, respectively. The method and system further include finding each of the duplicate content items in the first table, and using the reference link of the duplicate content item as a source ID index in the lookup table to replace the reference link with the corresponding destination ID in the lookup table.

Abstract: An adaptive vehicle power window control apparatus (20) includes an electric motor (28) for moving a member (34) between a first position and a second position. The space between the first position and the second position is divided into a plurality of trap zones and each zone has an associated sensitivity value. A controller 24 determines (40) a value functionally related to the present motor speed and determines (44) a value functionally related to a reference motor speed. The sensitivity value is adjusted as a function of the two determined values. A window zone determining function (62) determines which of the plurality zones the member (34) is located. The value functionally related to present motor speed is adjusted (52) as a function of the sensitivity value for the zone that the member is located. A comparing function (48) compares the adjusted value with the value functionally related to reference motor speed. The motor direction and movement is controlled as a function of the comparison.

Abstract: A system for displaying and manipulating image data sets includes a display device, a memory, and a processing unit. The memory includes a view management unit that generates a graphical window showing thumbnail representations of programmed groups. A method for displaying and manipulating image data sets includes the steps of generating a first graphical window showing thumbnail representations of programmed groups, generating a second graphical window showing thumbnail representations of data objects contained in a programmed group selected from the first graphical window, and invoking an application program in response to the selection of a thumbnail representation of a data object from the second graphical window.
