  • Patent number: 11638722
    Abstract: The invention concerns a medicine and a prophylactic medicine for COVID-19 disease. The inventive medicine targets the endosomic, non-endosomic and/or intracellular viral pathways and inhibits them. The best mode of the invention is considered to be the medicine that blocks all three viral pathways. In the best mode the individual dose of a constituent component of the medicine is arranged to a dosage size sufficient to inhibit its designated SARS-CoV-2 viral pathway. This allows the dose of a particular pharmacological agent to be smaller than in a drug with just one kind of pharmacological agent. The best mode of the invention shuts the two cell membrane viral pathways and the one intracellular viral pathway with the minimum efficient dose, thereby preventing drug overdose, and enabling prophylactic or preventive use.

  • Patent number: 11388569
    Abstract: A mobile phone connected to a fleet of radio transceiver chips that can be individually identified by the mobile station, which automatically are associated with a photo when the phone camera is used in proximity. The transceiver chips have a small loudspeaker, vibrator and/or light emitter for producing an alarm, and the transceiver chip also can determine and send back its location to the mobile phone. The mobile phone deduces its location by GPS or triangulation, and has an application which can be programmed to check the location of items given predetermined criteria are met, or upon user request. For example the mobile phone can be used to program luggage lists, and check whether everything is with the user at a time. The best mode involves typically a smartphone with relevant application software and RFID tags enhanced by light emitter, loudspeaker and/or vibrator and adhesive.

  • Patent number: 10192251
    Abstract: A mobile station is arranged to determine its location, which is searched against street addresses from a database, and at least one matching street address is retrieved. The street address is searched on the mobile station and/or over the network. The search engine conducts a search in the mobile station file system and/or the Internet and/or a file system over the network with the at least one query term, -at least one search result is arranged to be displayed to user on the screen of the mobile station. This facilitates on-demand effortless Mobile Internet Search that allows the users to access opportunities that they did not know about, or would not have had time to find out about with minimum effort as the software of the mobile phone is scanning the Internet and information pages for these opportunities and displaying the results dynamically on the mobile phone screen.

  • Patent number: 8611863
    Abstract: The invention relates to the field of instant messaging. More specifically the invention relates to a server centric method and unit for instant voice and video mail messaging. Even more particularly the invention relates to voicemail messaging with mobile terminals. The inventive methods and units under study allow faster voice messaging and enable similar, but not identical audio/video message “ping ball”. The sending of voicemail in accordance with the invention is instantaneous and involves no different telephone numbers for the sender to remember. The reception of messages is always instantaneous, provided the recipient is available, and only if not available, may the delivery of the messages be delayed.
