  • Determining a user based on features
    Patent number: 9609511
    Abstract: A signal may be emitted by an emitter or transducer. The signal may be sensed by a sensor, such as an accelerometer. Features of a body part or portion may be one of detected, extracted, or constructed from the sensed signal. It may be determined whether the body part or portion matches that of a user, such as an authorized user, based on the features.

  • Pixel structures
    Patent number: 8299708
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a pixel structure has an electrical conductor, a dielectric on the electrical conductor, a plurality of ribs on the dielectric, and a plurality of discrete protrusions protruding from a surface of each of the ribs. The plurality ribs define a plurality of compartments on the dielectric.

  • Method and apparatus for laser ablating a nozzle member
    Patent number: 5855835
    Abstract: The present invention is an apparatus for forming nozzles in a nozzle member for a printhead. The apparatus includes a radiation source for forming nozzles of a selected shape in the nozzle member. Also included is a support layer positioned proximate the nozzle member opposite the radiation source. The support layer is formed of a material that is selected to limit energy transfer from the support layer to prevent damage to the nozzle member.
