  • Publication number: 20180238742
    Abstract: A detection device for time and temperature tracking includes a signal processing unit in operable communication with a memory, a temperature sensor, a timer, and a display window. The detection device displays, via the display window, a first label.. The detection device detects, by the temperature sensor, a first temperature. The detection device determines, by the signal processing unit, a first temperature excursion, where the first temperature exceeds a first threshold. Responsive to determining the first temperature excursion, the detection device starts the timer configured to expire after a first duration of time. The detection device detects, by the temperature sensor, a second temperature. Responsive to either (1) the timer expiring after the first duration of time; or (2) determining, by the signal processing unit, a second temperature excursion, where the second temperature exceeds a second threshold, the detection device displays, via the display window, a second label.

  • Patent number: 9440074
    Abstract: A method and system for providing an indication of delivery of a neural stimulation therapy is disclosed. In an example, a method may include identifying current timing of an intermittent neural stimulation (INS) programmed in an implantable medical device (IMD) where the programmed INS includes alternating stimulation ON and stimulation OFF times and a timing for delivering stimulation bursts of a plurality of stimulation pulses during the stimulation burst ON times. An indication of the current timing of the INS may be provided using an INS indicator of an external device.

  • Patent number: 8736761
    Abstract: An apparatus and method is presented for displaying auxiliary information associated with a multimedia program. Specifically, the present invention is directed to receiving program signals, acquiring auxiliary information (e.g. closed captioning information) from the program signals, associating time information with the auxiliary information, storing the auxiliary information in a file associated with program content, using the auxiliary information file and program content to determine candidate program portions for customization of the auxiliary information, and displaying customized auxiliary information with the program content in accordance with user selections (see FIG. 1). Using the present invention, users with differing abilities and/or preferences related to display of caption text may customize display of the caption information transmitted with television programs.

  • Publication number: 20120330943
    Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for searching for a media content related to a selected media service. A selected media service, as selected by a user operable indicator, has related metadata that is used as the basis of a search query. Once the search query is formulated, the query is submitted to a search engine that returns search results of media content related to the selected media service. Media content then may be selected from the returned search results for rendering in a rendering environment.

  • Patent number: 8225345
    Abstract: A method for controlling an apparatus such as a television signal receiver having a parental control function allows users to change a setting associated with the parental control function without first entering a password, while also preventing children from circumventing and defeating the parental control function. The method is also useful for informing parents if a child attempts to change a setting in an effort to circumvent and defeat the parental control function. According to an exemplary embodiment, the method includes steps of enabling a user to change a predetermined setting associated with the parental control function without entering a password, and disabling at least one of an audio output and a video output of the apparatus responsive to the change.

  • Patent number: 7913274
    Abstract: An apparatus such as a television signal receiver includes an emergency alert function which, when activated, provides an alert output to notify users of an emergency event. According to an exemplary embodiment, the apparatus includes a tuner operative to tune signals including emergency alert signals capable of activating the emergency alert function. A processor is operative to detect a condition indicating relocation of the apparatus after a power interruption to the apparatus, and to enable a predetermined output associated with the emergency alert function responsive to detecting the condition.

  • Publication number: 20090055189
    Abstract: A method, apparatus and system are provided for the automatic replacement of potentially objectionable audio content from an audio signal in real time. In one embodiment of the present invention, the selective filtering of objectionable audio content from an audio signal is accomplished by first marking objectionable audio content in the audio signal with filtering information that identifies the type of objectionable audio content (e.g., crude language, ethnic and racial slurs, cursing, strong profanity) and storing the filtering information and the corresponding location of the objectionable audio content for that particular audio signal. Objectionable audio content having filtering information corresponding to a stored replacement content code determined from a predetermined replacement setting is then automatically replaced with an audio clip corresponding to the replacement setting.

  • Publication number: 20080172699
    Abstract: A method and apparatus are described for allowing a user to select one of an analog signal source and a digital signal source in a signal processing device, wherein the signal processing device compares an analog channel number with a digital channel list, determines based on results of the comparison if a corresponding digital channel is available, and, if available, stores a corresponding digital channel number and selects the corresponding digital channel determined from the digital channel list in response to a command from a user. A method and apparatus are also described as above but further determining based on the comparison if a corresponding digital channel is available, and, if available, prompting the user via an onscreen display (OSD) to select the digital signal.
