Publication number: 20240098456Abstract: Techniques for calculating a location of a position consumer device is disclosed. In one example, a network server may create a fingerprint map from reference data points. Each of the reference data points may include a recorded geo-location of a position source device and signal measurements taken at that recorded geo-location. By initially estimating an initial position of the position consumer device, the network server may apply one or more threshold values to filter reference data points—candidates for interpolation. The network server may then perform an interpolation on one or more pairs of reference data points to find a pair of reference data points that is collinear with the estimated position of the position consumer device. The location of the position consumer device may then be calculated based upon geo-locations of position source devices that are associated with collinear reference data points.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 1, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Emile Tran, Antoine Tran, Muhammad Khadim, Nan Xiao, Tony Fung, Chong Kiong

Publication number: 20220269505Abstract: Described are systems and methods for client side enrichment and transform via dynamic logic for analytics across various platforms for improved performance, features, and uses. Analytics data collected in client applications is transformed and enriched before being sent to the downstream pipeline using native code and logic bundled into the core application code. The additional logic specific to manipulation of analytics may be unbundled from client-side application code and still be executed on on-device to achieve the same result. The logic may be written in a single language, such as JavaScript, and run across all clients including web browser and mobile operating systems.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 10, 2022Publication date: August 25, 2022Inventors: Osama Khan, Brandon Sneed, Mark Hazlett, Prateek Srivastava, Chris Sperandio, Ilya Volodarsky, Tony Xiao, Fathy Boundjadj, Peter Richmond

Patent number: 9422145Abstract: A liquid dispensing apparatus with a child-safety feature which, in one preferred embodiment, does not permit dispensing unless both a dispensing handle and an associated lever are each independently moved. In another embodiment, dispensing is prevented unless a manually-depressable, rotatable dispensing lever and a rotatable safety lock are both simultaneously actuated.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2013Date of Patent: August 23, 2016Assignee: MTN Products, Inc.Inventors: Chun Yen Wang, Tony Xiao

Publication number: 20160220970Abstract: A system and method for rapid carbonization of a fluid such as water. CO2 gas to be pumped into a vessel at an increased pressure greater than one atmosphere. Liquid is then injected into the vessel using the technique of atomization. Atomization is a process where the liquid is caused to take the form of a very large number of tiny droplets. This is done by giving the liquid angular momentum as it is sprayed out of one or more nozzles. The very large number of very small droplets have a tremendously increased surface area increased surface area of the gas-liquid boundary causes very rapid dissolving of the gas in the liquid. The required angular momentum is imparted to the liquid by a curved feed system and by specially shaped nozzles.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 30, 2015Publication date: August 4, 2016Applicant: La Vit Technology LLCInventors: Robert James, Tony Xiao, Chun-Yen Wang

Publication number: 20110100503Abstract: A dispensing device capable of no-leak dispensing of a liquid when the dispensing device is in fluid communication with a defective liquid container, including an apparatus enabling the movement of liquid from the liquid container to a holding tank in fluid communication with the liquid container and associated with the dispensing device. The apparatus includes one or more sealing mechanisms which permit ambient air to enter the liquid container through an air path as necessary to enable uninterrupted dispensing, and also permits substantially none of the liquid or only minimal amounts of the liquid to flow out of the holding tank and through the air path, in a no-leak manner, during periods when there is no dispensing.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 3, 2009Publication date: May 5, 2011Applicant: MTN PRODUCTS, INC.Inventors: Chun Yen Wang, Tony Xiao, Lim Chin Tien

Publication number: 20060164594Abstract: A lens-locker for spectacle frame includes a lower portion having a screw and an upper portion having a hole for inserting a freely rotating locking nut, in which the locking nut is screwed into the screw of the lower portion. When the locking nut is rotated in clockwise (counterclockwise) direction, the frame becomes close; contrariwise, the frame becomes open, so that the lens is adapted to be removed or replaced. The limitation-tail and the limitation-stop prevent the lower portion taking apart from the upper portion as the frame is being opened.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 12, 2005Publication date: July 27, 2006Inventor: Tony Xiao

Publication number: 20060007387Abstract: A spectacle set combines with friction hinges can be used in flip up spectacle frames as well as flip up clip-on frames with magnetic arrangements. The friction hinge comprises a tubular sleeve, a friction receiving portion, a spring and an adjustable screw. The tubular sleeve has an open side for inserting the friction receiving portion which having a flat surface or a spherical surface, the hinge prong which connected to the friction receiving portion passes through the tubular sleeve, and the spring being pressed on the friction receiving portion by the adjustable screw for obtaining friction force when the hinge prong is pivoted. The flip up spectacle frame comprises a frame chassis, a lens body and two friction hinges which connected to upper portions between the frame base and the lens body that allows the lens body to be able to flip up and stay up in any position when the flip up spectacle frame is in used.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 1, 2005Publication date: January 12, 2006Inventor: Tony Xiao

Publication number: 20050025587Abstract: An optical lens hole drilling guider includes a base member and a guiding member spacedly overlapped thereon to form a holding cavity for holding the optical lens in position. The guiding member includes first and second side guiders slidably mounted to each other for fitting a width of the optical lens and first and second guiding slots formed on the second side guider to communicate with the holding cavity. Therefore, when the optical lens is securely retained within the holding cavity, the second side guider is sidewardly slid from the first side guider until one of the first and second guiding slots is aligned with a marking point of the optical lens such that a drilling tool is adapted to penetrate the optical lens at the marking point through the respective guiding slot so as to form the through slot on the optical lens.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 28, 2003Publication date: February 3, 2005Inventor: Tony Xiao
