Abstract: A video game system includes an input device, where the input device has at least one physiological sensing device for determining at least one physiological state of a user. The input device further has at least one motion sensing device for determining the motion and/or position of the input device and/or the user. The video game system further comprises a processor for using the physiological state and the motion and/or position of the input device and/or user to control game play.

Abstract: A method for customizing a print device to a specific user including prompting a user of the device to indicate whether the device is intended for a first type of use or a second, different type of use, receiving an indication of intended use and, in response to the indication, automatically establishing at least one device default setting.

Abstract: A zipper closure for a polymeric package includes a plurality of profile members on a first polymeric surface, where one and not more than one of these plurality of profile members is colored differently from the remaining profile members on the same polymeric surface. The differently colored profile members provide a visual reference for properly orienting the zipper closure to the polymeric packaging during manufacture.

Abstract: A recloseable zipper having a sealant applied thereon, for use in a polymeric bag. The recloseable zipper includes a first and second closure member, with each closure member having an interior surface and an exterior surface. A first sealant is present on the exterior surface of each of the first and second closure profiles; this sealant is used to attach a polymeric film that forms a bag body. A second sealant is present on the interior surface of each of the first and second closure profiles; this sealant enhances the seal between the closure profiles at the side edges of the bag.

Abstract: A closure has at least one channel portion adapted to receive an interlocking profile portion. The channel has at least one window permitting visual inspection of a profile interlocked therein. At least one profile is disposed for interlocking with the channel and includes a stem joined to the closure and one or more latching projections formed by a frangible connection to the stem, wherein one or more projections are adapted to cooperatively interlock with the channel portion of the closure, thereby sealing the closure. In one closure, a tamper evident structure is included in the form of a slider having a shaver to engage in shaving contact with interlocking closure members when passed along the closure in a direction opposite to the closing direction. The various closure members can include different colors. The closures can be used on bag structures.

Abstract: A method of operating an image scanning system including an image scanner, a network adapter and a memory associated with the image scanner and/or the network adapter. The method including the steps of storing a list of one or more computers that are registered to interact with the image scanner in the memory and selecting one computer from the list of computers as a destination for scanned data and locking out all other computers from interacting with the image scanner until the scanned data is communicated to the selected one computer.

Abstract: In a system comprising a computer in communication with a multi-function imaging machine having a printer section and a fax section, and a user input device, a method of operating the multi-function imaging machine, comprising the steps of setting one or more fax settings; providing a fax settings lock for user selection; and locking fax settings for said fax section using said fax settings lock when selected. The fax settings, which include at least one of speed dial settings, group settings and junk fax list, can be provided for viewing on the computer as read-only values while allowing for additions to said speed dial settings, group settings and junk fax list from said computer.
