Abstract: Systems and methods for wireless synchronization in an implantable system include receiving, by a first computing device, a first synchronization signal; recording, by the first computing device, a first timestamp based on a time of receipt of the first synchronization signal; receiving, by the first computing device, a synchronization request comprising a second timestamp; determining, by the first computing device, a synchronized time offset based on the first timestamp and the second timestamp; transmitting, by the first computing device, a second synchronization signal; generating, by the first computing device, a synchronization message comprising a third timestamp based on a time of transmission of the second synchronization signal and the synchronized time offset; queuing, by the first computing device, the synchronization message during a non-accessible transmission time slot; and wirelessly transmitting, by the first computing device, the synchronization message to a second computing device during an

Abstract: A suspension system for use in a vehicle, the system comprises pneumatic springs for adjusting the ride height of a vehicle. The pneumatic springs are coupled to a compressor for compressing air to actuate the pneumatic springs. The pneumatic spring are coupled to an output of the compressor by a conduit which transfers the compressed air. The conduit forms a pressurised fluid path between the compressor and the pneumatic spring. Wherein the system comprises a noise suppressor for reducing acoustic noise which is radiated from the conduit; the noise suppressor is disposed in the pressurised path.

Abstract: In a vehicle an auxiliary machine (13) such as an air compressor is physically associated with the vehicle battery (12). The battery provides for substantial additional mass which resists transmission of noise and vibration from the small machine to the vehicle structure (11). The small machine (13) may itself form part of a battery clamp arrangement.

Abstract: A method of creating a photo book based on a user-selected, predefined theme is disclosed. During creation of the photo book, design options such as styles, layouts, and design elements are adjusted dynamically based on the selected theme.

Abstract: This invention provides a conjugate between poly-D-gamma glutamic acid and a carrier protein. The conjugate can be used for therapeutic or prophylactic immunization against anthrax infections. The invention also includes methods of purifying poly-D-gamma glutamic acid, methods of conjugation, vaccines and methods of vaccination against B. anthracis.
