  • Patent number: 7267440
    Abstract: A computerized method for recording and scoring the process by which an examinee performs cognitive or psychological grapho-motor tasks that call for the use of pencil and paper, such as drawing or copying graphical configurations or text. The examinee uses a digital pen that leaves a trace on a writing pad. The trace is digitized in real time, input to a computer and stored in memory as a time dependent image. The image may be displayed and scored in real time or at a later stage on a computer display. The examiner can easily replay and reevaluate the graph-motor task process at a later stage.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6647717
    Abstract: A power plant and method for the generation of power from flowing air utilizes a generally vertically extending duct having an inlet open to atmosphere at an elevation above an outlet. A spray system is mounted adjacent the inlet for spraying droplets of a predetermined amount of water into the air causing the air and droplet mixture to become cooler and denser than the outside air to create a down draft of fluid within the duct. A power system mounted adjacent the outlet recovers energy from the downdraft of fluid passing through it. The predetermined amount of water sprayed is greater than the amount of water that would theoretically and potentially evaporate in the air throughout the entire elevation over an unlimited time period using fresh water droplets. The power plant can also be synergistically combined with desalination systems and aquaculture.

  • Patent number: 6629846
    Abstract: A method for recording the process of an examinee performing a psychological test where the psychological test includes a finite number of elements that are to be sequentially manipulated. Such tests include memory tests or graphic manipulation tests such as copying complex figures. An observer uses a graphic input device, such as a touch-sensitive screen, to register and store the time each manipulation is performed. In such a way, the process is accurately recorded in an ecologically valid manner.
