Abstract: A system (10) for viewing location marker data on a display (14) located in a vehicle (16) has a transponder (20) located on a structure (18) and a transmitter (22) located on the vehicle, which transmits a first signal (24). The transponder receives the first signal and transmits a second signal (26) with a first identification tag. A receiver (28) in the vehicle receives the second signal. A microprocessor (30) in the vehicle interprets the first identification tag and displays location marker data corresponding to the first identification tag on the display.

Abstract: A computer cursor control system (10) including a foot operated cursor control device (16) connected to a Central Processing Unit (CPU) (12). The cursor (20) is positioned by the operator (18) by depressing a left pedal (24), a right pedal (26), or both. Reverse movement is provided using a left or right reverse button (28, 30) on a keyboard (22). Response sensitivity of cursor (20) movement is provided in a control window (40), with individual left and right pedal controls (42 and 44).

Abstract: A digital preservation system (10) for accepting a digital data record as input, for providing a preview of the digital data record on a display screen (80), for writing the data record in human-readable form onto a preservation-quality medium (210), for storage of the medium (210), and for retrieval of the data record from the medium (210). The digital preservation system (10) preserves a data record in human-readable form, along with an associated metadata record, allowing the human-readable preserved data record to be readable in the distant future, independent of specific reading hardware. The preview function allows an operator to specify storage and retrieval characteristics for the data record.

Abstract: An imaging camera apparatus (20) for capturing images electronically and providing output data for four separate color channels, red, green, blue, and a fourth saturated primary color, expanding the color gamut over conventional three color channel cameras. An image acquisition unit (120) directs input light to one, two, or four photosensors (30) for obtaining four-color image data.

Abstract: A digital preservation system (10) for accepting a digital data record as input, for writing the data record in human-readable form onto a preservation-quality medium (210), for storage of the medium (210), and for retrieval of the data record from the medium (210). The system (10) is modular, allowing scaling of the system (10), allowing preferential selection of specific image handling components, and allowing replacement of complete subsystems while minimizing the likelihood of data loss. The digital preservation system (10) preserves a data record in human-readable form, along with an associated metadata record, allowing the human-readable preserved data record to be readable in the distant future, independent of specific reading hardware.
