  • Patent number: 10650669
    Abstract: A system and method used for monitoring conditions in a space through characterizing detected occupants with properties in accordance with time, location and tracked traversal path. The intruder as a detected occupant is distinguished from the tenant, property management staff, and visitor. The system triggers an alert indicative of a condition by sending signals and messages to selected devices or systems as receiving nodes. A condition, such as collected sensor data incompliant to a threshold, is detected and an alert is triggered. A user carried mobile device such as the cellular phone, elevator control system operative in a building are possible receiving nodes of a triggered alert for a detected condition.

  • Patent number: 10650746
    Abstract: Disclosed is an organic light emitting display having a mirror function. In an embodiment, a light-shielding reflective layer overlaps areas of the organic light emitting display except for emission areas provided with light emitting devices formed therein. The light-shielding reflective layer prevents light from entering channel regions of active layers and reflects external light, for example, when the organic light emitting device is not operated to display an image, and thus the organic light emitting display may stably implement a mirror function.

  • Patent number: 10647862
    Abstract: Disclosed are an ink composition including light-absorbing nanoparticles and a photonic crystal structure formed using the same. The ink composition may include inorganic particles; monomer; photoinitiator; and nanoparticles light-absorbing nanoparticles to provide the photonic crystal structure. As consequence, problems such as low color sharpness, which makes photonic crystals visible, and attaining high productivity may be eliminated. Moreover, white scattering can be reduced, and thus a distinctive color can be exhibited even when there is a difference between a reflection angle and an observation angle of light, thereby improving visibility.

  • Patent number: 10645967
    Abstract: Packaged aerated acidified food compositions (e.g., aerated dips, sauces, etc.) having a low density (e.g., 0.4 to 0.8 g/cm3) due to incorporation of gas bubbles (e.g., nitrogen or air) within an aerated matrix. In addition to the aerated matrix the composition further includes a relatively high fraction of oil (e.g., as an oil/water emulsion). The compositions are shelf-stable, so as to exhibit microbial stability and stability with respect to the aerated low density “whipped” texture, without requiring refrigeration. The composition includes the aerating gas (e.g., nitrogen or air), a protein (e.g., soy or dairy), a stabilizer (e.g., a hydrocolloid, a cyclodextrin, a monoglyceride, and/or a diglyceride), oil, water, an emulsifier, and a food grade acid. Flavors, spices, and other components may be included.

  • Patent number: 10649725
    Abstract: Systems of the present disclosure adjust an interface mode of an application based on paralinguistic features of audio input. The audio input is via a microphone associated with a computing device. A predictive model uses paralinguistic features of the audio input and additional features received from sensors or a user profile to predict an interface mode that a user would currently prefer to use. The interface mode specifies how output is provided and how input is received. The interface mode may also specify which elements of a graphical user interface are displayed, where the elements are placed, and how the elements are sized.

  • Publication number: 20200141442
    Abstract: A swivel connector has a female part and a male part that are connected to each other so as to swivel. The female part has a main body with an interior cavity and an open face, and a strap connector. The male part has a plug portion and a strap connector. A ring lock locks the male portion to the female portion and is formed by two side walls connected by two pivot bars, the side walls of the ring lock being rotatably connected to the female part. The male part is locked to the female part by inserting the plug portion into the interior cavity, and the ring lock is held by spring in a locked position where the open face is blocked by one of the pivot bars. The male part is released from the female part by rotating the ring lock against the force of the spring until the open face is not blocked by the pivot bar.
