Abstract: The present invention aims to provide incremental automotive transportation to a person wearing a pair of identical motorized shoes. Each shoe houses in its sole an assembly of electrically powered set of wheels clasped over longitudinally by a conveyor from heel to toe. The assembly, skewed at an adjustable angle from the longitude towards the instep, is initially in an elevated no-contact position with an underlying surface. When lowered and switched on, the assembly operates and transports the shoe forward, which is in contact with the surface through it only. The assembly is designed to neutralize forces acting to disrupt its operation during walking while the sole is equipped to provide stability by absorbing impacts. Further, multiple assemblies can be housed in one sole wherein some of them can be tilted, twisted, reflexively twisted, recessed and all have electronic sensors. Additionally, all electro-mechanical operations can be remote and computer controlled.

Abstract: The present invention aims to provide a system that allows multiple users operating a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant), receiving information from a server via a cellular phone, to access the Internet or the World Wide Web (WWW), view and interact with these images remotely on a display screen. The invention relates to the priority in which packets or blocks of information are transferred to and displayed on the screen of the PDA device. The invention further relates to various methods to reduce the amount of data sent to the PDA for back pages or previously viewed web pages, stored in the cache memory of the PDA and also mirrored on the server's memory. Various algorithms may be used by the server to determine what information is to be removed from the PDA's cache memory, as it approaches its full capacity.

Abstract: The invention discloses a portable device that is similar to a combination of a palm top computer and a cellular telephone, and which allows the user to access the Internet and World Wide Web. A host computer that may also be a Web server, is connected to the Internet and comprises various software programs to translate, rasterize and compress images received from the Internet. The compressed images are sent the portable device and the device is capable of decompressing the compressed image. Thus, the user views a bit map image of a Web page. The portable device further comprises methods of pointing and clicking on text and images which represent links to other pages. All commands that the user enters into the portable device are sent to the host computer; which performs the commands via a virtual browser, and sends the information back to the portable device.

Abstract: The present invention aims to provide a system that allows multiple users operating a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) to access the Internet or the World Wide Web (WWW), and to be able to view and interact with these images remotely on a display screen. The invention provides a client and server system to facilitate multiple PDA users simultaneously on a single server, which has multiple virtual machines contained within, with each virtual machine containing a web browser. The invention relates to the priority in which packets or blocks of information are transferred to and displayed on the screen of the PDA device. The invention also relates to the interlacing of blocks and the construction of such blocks displayed on the PDA screen. The invention further relates to the sending, receiving, and acknowledgement of these blocks between the PDA and server.

Abstract: The present inventions aims to transform, and later amplify, a barely audible whisper of a speaker's voice, received in a microphone within an electronic device capable of transforming and transmitting voice, in terms of its speech characteristics into a synthetic voice that closely mimics a non-whisper voice of the speaker. The device, equipped with a computer that processes sound, learns to transforms voice in a learning mode and can operate with a range of ultra low volumes. Microphones in the device can be directional to localize areas of sound source. The computer also equalizes the sound for distance between the speaker and microphone. It can further identify and adjust volume on hard stops and shrill sounds that become pronounced especially in a barely audible whisper.

Abstract: The invention discloses a portable device that allows the user to access the Internet and World Wide Web. The portable device includes a modem that connects to a cellular telephone, thus the portable device connects wirelessly to the Internet. A host computer that may also be a Web server, is connected to the Internet and comprises various software programs to translate and compress into bit map or raster images the information received from the Internet. The compressed image is sent the portable device and the device is capable of decompressing the compressed image. Thus, the user views a bit map image of a Web page.

Abstract: A portable device that allows accessing the Internet and World Wide Web wirelessly through a cellular telephone. A host computer, which may also be a Web server, translates and compresses into bitmap or raster images the information received from the Internet. The compressed images are sent to the portable device for decompression and display. The portable device accepts pointing and clicking to links to other pages. Commands entered by the user at the portable device are sent to the host computer for execution via a virtual browser to generate a new page, which is then rasterized, compressed and sent to the portable device. Alternatively, a user may perform clicking and scrolling with respect to the image on the device to cause the actual execution in the virtual browser. The user may access a virtual desktop through the palm top device to create and modify documents.

Abstract: The invention discloses a portable remote device that connects wirelessly to the internet or other sources via a host computer which runs a browser, taking information received and renders it onto a virtual display in memory. This information is directed to software which reduces the color depth, compresses and sends it to the portable device, which decompresses and stores it into memory for displaying. The information captured and sent to the remote device is limited to the size of the browser's window, which may be considerably smaller than the image in the virtual display. The browser automatically scrolls to other parts of the image to capture it entirely, sending segments simultaneously to other software responsible for color depth reduction and compression, whilst it scrolls to other segments.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a portable device for accessing the Internet that is compact and lightweight and comprises a display screen of 640 pixels×240 pixels. The display screen is divided into two portions that are connected with a hinge, thus the display screens are foldable. In another embodiment, a keyboard is divided into two portions and the portions are attached to the display screens with hinges. The keyboards fold into the display screens. In another embodiment, a virtual browser that sends information to the device is formatted such that text is displayed on one side of the display screen therefore the user does not have to skip over the hinge while reading.
