  • Patent number: 11709071
    Abstract: Various embodiments provide for annotating a geographic map. Display of a geographic map on a client device can be adjusted (e.g., pan over geographic map or adjust zoom level), and a first set of map annotations for the adjusted map is determined, where the first set of map annotations comprises at least one map annotation associated with a transport service opportunity. From the first set of map annotations, a second set of map annotations can be determined based on a map annotation visual hierarchy. For instance, at least a portion of the second set of map annotations can be determined by filtering the first set of map annotations based on a type of transport service opportunity. Subsequently, the second set of map annotations can be presented on the adjusted map on the display.

  • Publication number: 20070130479
    Abstract: An apparatus for selectively enabling power including a power supply, and a device having a controller and an input activated by a user. The controller is selectively powered by the power supply. While the device is in a sleep state, a sensing circuit senses activation of the input by the user and enables the power supply to provide power to the controller in response to the sensed activation of the input by the user. A latch circuit causes the power supply to continue to provide power to the controller. The controller is responsive to the sensed activation of the input by the user for enabling the latch circuit and for disabling the latch circuit, thereby reentering the device into a sleep state.

  • Publication number: 20070116089
    Abstract: An electronic thermometer with a progress indicator. A control circuit of the thermometer performs at least one temperature calculation as a function of a detected temperature and generates a temperature signal representative of the temperature of a subject based on the temperature calculation. A progress indicator visually indicates progress of the control circuit in performing the temperature calculation.

  • Publication number: 20050234441
    Abstract: An ophthalmic surgical system 10 includes an aspiration device 12 for aspirating fluids and tissue from a surgical site 14, and a surgical handpiece 16 for performing a surgical function. A control unit 46 is connected to each of the aspiration device and the surgical handpiece for controlling the operation of each device and handpiece. A user interface 48 forming a portion of the control unit 46, guides a user by prompting the user to answer a series of questions and the control unit, controls the devices and handpieces based on the user's answers.
