Abstract: A visual summarization of a web page is generated. This generally involves identifying at least one of, an image that is exemplary of the page content, text that is exemplary of the page content, and a logo associated with the web page. The exemplary image and logo, if identified, are scaled to prescribed sizes. The exemplary image can act as a background image for the summarization, or a scaled version of the at least a portion of the web page can act as the background image. In the latter, if an exemplary image was identified, it is overlaid onto the background image at a prescribed location. In either case, if a logo was identified, it is also overlaid onto the background image at a prescribed location. If exemplary text was identified, a text area in the background image is identified and at least some of the exemplary text is inserted.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for detecting a gas leak in a gas distribution system or part thereof, and comprising: (a) a gas inlet connected to a gas-consuming peripheral (10); (b) a means (50) of detecting gas flow rate, which is situated downstream of and close to said inlet; (c) a variable-volume buffer chamber (11), coupled to said distribution system downstream of the detection means (50); (d) a valve (6) controlled by a control means (6A) for leaving or not leaving the gas free to pass from the gas source or supply to the buffer chamber (11) according to the amount of gas present therein; and (e) a means (8) capable of emitting a leak signal when the detection means (50) detects a gas flow rate higher than a predetermined value when the control means (6A) is interrupting the supply of gas to the buffer chamber (11).

Abstract: The present invention is a mobile asset security system that enables remote tracking and monitoring of the asset. The security system is equipped with a control and intelligence unit, a position determining device and a number of intrusion detection devices. The control and intelligence unit processes information from the position determining device with the help of an in-built virtual mapping system to obtain geographic information of the vehicle in the form of name of place, street, coordinates, etc. The control unit may be remotely configured and controlled through a built in voice recognition and DTMF tone detector. The geographic information and information regarding any violation of intrusion detection devices is converted to synthesized speech using a text to speech system. The text to speech system converts the speech to a language desired by the user. The synthesized speech is transmitted to the user's communication device over an existing communication network.

Abstract: The present invention is a vehicle security system that provides remote tracking and monitoring of the vehicle. The security system is equipped with a control and intelligence unit, a position determining device and a plurality of intrusion detection devices.
