Abstract: Embodiments of this invention relate to theater seating, and more particularly to theater seating comprising a user interface that can be used to control various elements of the seat, and allow the user to select the language in which media is presented (i.e., systems and methods for providing language selection technology through interface with cinema servers). Embodiments of this system comprise a touchscreen user interface, a processing and IO circuit board, and a head phone audio jack. In some embodiments the touchscreen user interface comprises a menu selectable device. In some embodiments the menus show various controllable features selected from a list comprising: multiple language outputs with volume controls, position control for the seat back recline and foot elevation, potentially a seat temperature control with heat and cooling, and even potentially a customer rewards number input device capable of theater concessions ordering.

Abstract: The present invention relates to metering and reporting on the compliance of an organisation to government, corporate and/or legal requirements by way of determining a demographic measure of an organisation/business activity, process or function wherein the business activity, process or function comprises a plurality of active participants where each active participant carries at least one uniquely identifiable mobile communications device, the method comprising the steps of: accessing a personal organisation database in operative communication with the mobile device of each participant and extracting calendar and/or scheduling information on each participant from an email service account of respective participants from the database; accessing centralised human resource database of demographic information on respective participants; correlating the personal organisation database records with the demographic information; generating a score for a participant; a meeting; a manager; a department; an organisati

Abstract: This invention relates to theater seating, and more particularly to simultaneously controlling a plurality of seats in a theater comprising a user interface and transmitter that can be used to control various elements of the seat, and a receiver and motor control unit attached to each theater seat. In some embodiments, a signal transmitter operated by an individual at a theater may simultaneously control the various elements of any group of seats.

Abstract: Embodiments of this invention relate to theater seating, and more particularly to electrically powered reclining theater seating comprising an integrated power supply for providing power to several theater seats, while providing a battery backup system. In some embodiments the integrated power supply unit comprises an AC Source, an AC/DC conversion unit, batteries, a processing and reverse polarity protection unit, an output switching circuit, DC power supply with a battery backup, and connectors for providing DC current to a plurality of theater seats, which can be used as the power source for powered recliners.

Abstract: A system and method to control environmental parameters of pre-defined zones within an environment using an electronic controller. An electronic controller monitors a loop temperature of a loop field of a geo-thermal heat pump as detected by a temperature sensor connected to the loop field. The electronic controller selects a staging combination of the geo-thermal heat pump and an auxiliary HVAC equipment based on at least the loop temperature. The electronic controller activates the selected staging combination, to modify at least a portion of the environmental parameters, using non-proprietary activating signals provided by the electronic controller.

Abstract: The invention comprises a novel virus that can kill mammalian cancer cells efficiently. The virus produces a novel protein that converts two non-toxic prodrugs into potent chemotherapeutic agents. These chemotherapeutic agents are produced locally and help the virus kill the cancer cells as well as sensitize them to radiation. In preclinical studies, the virus has proven effective at killing a variety of mammalian cancer cells either alone or when combined with prodrug therapy and/or radiation therapy. The invention may provide a safe and effective treatment for human cancer.

Abstract: A multistage electromagnetic separator is designed to separate magnetically susceptible materials suspended in fluids. The apparatus includes an upper plate and a lower plate set to a fill position and the fluid samples are filled into upper and lower cuvettes. The upper cuvette rotates into position above the lower cuvette aligning the upper and lower cuvettes. A translating electromagnet energizes to a programmed current level and translates from the bottom of the lower cuvette to the interface of the plates. The translating electromagnet is de-energized, and a holding electromagnet is energized to a programmed current level pulling particles within a specified mobility range into the top of the captured upper collection cuvette. The holding electromagnet is de-energized leaving the permanent holding magnet to keep the collected sample particles in the top cuvette while the upper plate rotates thereby capturing the sample of the collected particles.
