  • Patent number: 8977076
    Abstract: An input image (7) having a first pixel resolution is acquired from an image capture system (2). A respective characterization of each of at least one visual quality feature of the input image (7) is determined. An output thumbnail image (9) is produced from the input image (7). The output thumbnail image (9) reflects the respective characterization of each visual quality feature. The output thumbnail image (9) has a second pixel resolution lower than the first pixel resolution. The output thumbnail image (9) is output in association with operation of the image capture system (2).

  • Publication number: 20150056342
    Abstract: The presently disclosed subject matter is directed to a package that allows substantially the entire surface of a product (such as fresh red meat) to be in contact with a desired internal gas concentration. In addition, the disclosed package ensures that large amounts of the product surface are not in contact with the packaging materials to prevent discolored product areas. Particularly, the disclosed package comprises a support member, a thermoformed lidding film, and an oxygen-sensitive product. The lidding film includes one or more ridges that prevent direct contact with the product. As a result, uniform product color is maintained and the product appearance is preserved.

  • Patent number: 8792110
    Abstract: Systems and methods for securing a document for transmission are discussed. In one embodiment, a document is checked for an indication of confidentiality. The document is then passed to a secure driver, in response to a finding of the indication of confidentiality. The document is passed to a non-secure driver, in response to a failure to find the indication of confidentiality. The document is then transmitted after processing by the secure driver or the non-secure driver.

  • Patent number: 8602854
    Abstract: A scent control system for use in a hunting blind enclosure includes an exhaust conduit adapted to exhaust air from the hunting blind enclosure and an air driver in fluid communication with the exhaust conduit. The air driver is operable to intake air from within the enclosure and exhaust air through the exhaust conduit and is further adapted to provide a negative air pressure within the enclosure relative to an air pressure outside of the enclosure. A filter disposed between an outlet of the air driver and the exhaust conduit filters human scent from air being exhausted from the enclosure.

  • Patent number: 8473922
    Abstract: A monitoring method and apparatus for a component-based software system operating over one or more processing devices are provided according to the invention. The method includes the steps of initiating an invocation of a second software component from within an execution of a first software component. A stub start log data is recorded in an instrumented stub before the invocation of the second software component. A stub end log data is recorded in the instrumented stub after a response is received from the invocation of the second software component. The stub start log data and the stub end log data gather runtime information about execution of the second software component within the component-based software system. The monitoring is capable of gathering log data across a plurality of threads, across a plurality of processes, and across a plurality of processors.

  • Publication number: 20090045649
    Abstract: Door gap seals and seal assemblies for over road trailers and other over road cargo carriers are disclosed herein. An over road trailer configured in accordance with one embodiment of the invention includes a door rotatably mounted to a container body proximate an opening. The door moves between a closed position in which the door at least partially covers the opening, and an open position in which the door is spaced apart from the opening to form a gap therebetween. The over road trailer further includes a seal attached to at least one of the door and the container body. The seal is at least partially compressed and/or deflected between the door and the container body to seal the gap when the door is in the open position.
