  • Patent number: 10115317
    Abstract: An apparatus is used to add dimensionality to material to be viewed or listened to by a user. While reading material is typically shown to a user in two dimensions, the apparatus displays the reading material with added-dimensionality on a screen of a computing device. The process implemented on the apparatus involves adding the material in the form of units to the memory device; displaying each unit on a computer screen in an ordered scheme incorporating motion of each unit according to a control theme; and forming a guide on the screen to focus user attention on a unit or set of units. The guide has a characteristic choosable by the user. The apparatus can convert the material to another language and allow the user to control the display. A network connection enables remote control of the process and supplementation of the material for implementation by the process.

  • Patent number: 8042775
    Abstract: A support for the head and neck of a person seated at a desk. The support is adjustable in three dimensions and includes a base, a joint removably attached to the base in a slidable engagement, a vertical arm configured with an offset vertical axis, a ball joint, a chin mount adapted to rotate on the ball joint, a hand-turnable bolt configured to prevent rotation of the chin mount on the spherical ball.

  • Patent number: 7581858
    Abstract: An illuminating apparatus shows music effects with light sequences in a vehicle. The apparatus includes a support structure that is installable on an electrical socket. A switch on the base structure activates the apparatus. A transparent container with cut-outs surrounds the base structure and includes a white light activated by the switch. A direct current motor has an axle configured to rotate the base structure within the container. A circuit board is attached to the axle enables rotation of the circuit board within the container. The circuit board can activate sequences of light upon detection of a music signal and can detect a signal from a remote control. Light emitting sources are operably connected to the circuit board to rotate with the circuit board and to project light through the container. A remote control comprises buttons for controlling apparatus operational functions.
