  • Patent number: 8777011
    Abstract: A package for storing an aerosolizable pharmaceutical formulation comprises a capsule adapted to contain the aerosolizable pharmaceutical formulation, and a moisture barrier around the capsule. The moisture barrier comprises a material that is resistant to moisture passage, whereby the moisture barrier reduces the amount of moisture in contact with the aerosolizable pharmaceutical formulation so that the aerosolizable pharmaceutical formulation may be aerosolized when the capsule is opened. In one version, the moisture barrier comprises a metal.

  • Patent number: 6151064
    Abstract: An apparatus and method to control a video camera for the acquisition of a color image under varying image capture conditions includes a video camera having a red, green and blue output. The video camera is provided with a controllable iris aperture, a controllable overall RGB signal gain, independently controllable RGB signal channel gains and a controllable RGB signal channel balance. The controllable parameters are controlled by a control unit. The control unit generates signals from an image signal received from the video camera. The signals are used to correct the controllable parameters to improve camera image capture performance.

  • Patent number: 5828966
    Abstract: A charging cradle for recharging cordless telephones which is modular and configurable in a variety of ways is provided. The cradle includes a charging unit and interchangeable telephone support structure. The charging cradle has at least two interchangeable support elements, one of which includes recharging elements. The support elements are removably attachable to support struts and may be attached in any order. The support struts are in electrical communication with the charging unit. The recharging support element includes electrical communication elements which connect the charging unit with the recharging contacts located on the external surface of the telephone handset. The charging cradle is adapted to hold the telephone handset in a nested relation while recharging the batteries located within the handset. Safety features prevent overcharging. The charging cradle may be constructed in such a manner to permit the recharging of most cordless portable telephones.
