Feb 19, 1999

Appl. No.:

09/253588

Inventors:

Richard Rowe - San Jose CA
Kulbir Sandhu - San Jose CA

Assignee:

Palm, Inc. - Santa Clara CA

International Classification:

G09G 500

US Classification:

345179

Abstract:

A stylus assembly adapted to enter data into an electronic device and provide a user with a tool to access the electronic device to maintain and/or repair the electronic device. The stylus assembly includes a stylus body and a stylus point coupled to the stylus body. The stylus point further includes a first end for entering data into and electronic device, such as a personal data assistant, and a second end coupled to the stylus body. A tool is then detachably coupled to one of the stylus body and the second end of the stylus point. When the tool is not accessing the electronic device and the stylus body and the stylus point are coupled together the tool is disposed within the other of the stylus point and the stylus body to which it is not attached.

International Classification:

G01S 13/89

US Classification:

342179, 342 22

Abstract:

Active millimeter-wave imaging systems can include an antenna apparatus configured to transmit toward and receive from a subject in a subject position, electromagnetic radiation. A controller can include a transceiver configured to operate the antenna apparatus and produce an output representative of the received radiation, and a processor adapted to convert the transceiver output into image data representative of an image of the subject. The antenna apparatus may move in a partial or continuous loop around the subject, toward or away from the subject, or in an opposite direction to an associated antenna apparatus. Antenna units in the antenna apparatus may be oriented at different angular positions along an array. Antenna arrays may also be formed of a plurality of array segments, and a group of arrays may be combined to form an antenna apparatus.

International Classification:

G08B 13/18

US Classification:

340552, 342179

Abstract:

An interrogating system can include an interrogating apparatus configured to transmit toward and receive from a subject in a subject position, millimeter-wave electromagnetic radiation. Such a system can also include a controller configured to operate the interrogating apparatus, and produce data representative of a characteristic of the subject from received radiation. Some embodiments of such an interrogating system may include interrogating apparatus adapted to be mounted to a passenger vehicle or at a vehicle passenger loading zone, to interrogate passengers prior to boarding the vehicle. Such embodiments may include one or more controllers positioned within the vehicle or at the loading zone.

International Classification:

G01S 13/89

US Classification:

342 22, 342179, 342 27

Abstract:

A surveillance system can include a first sensor apparatus configured to interrogate a subject, including a person and objects carried by the person, with millimeter-wave electromagnetic radiation for imaging the subject. A supplemental source provides additional information about the subject that is relatable to objects potentially carried by the person. Relational information relates the produced image signal and the subject information. The supplemental source may be a second sensor apparatus adapted to detect a given characteristic of an object potentially carried by a person in the subject position. Relational information about whether the person is carrying an object having the given characteristic may then be produced.

US Classification:

342 22, 342 27, 342179

Abstract:

An imaging system can include an antenna apparatus configured to transmit toward and receive from a subject in a subject position, millimeter-wave electromagnetic radiation. A subject may include a person and any object or objects with the person. A controller can include a transceiver configured to operate the antenna apparatus and produce an output representative of the received radiation, and a processor adapted to produce from the transceiver output, image data representative of an image of the subject. At least a first portion of an image signal representative of radiation received by an antenna apparatus may be used to produce first image data representative of a first image of at least a portion of the subject. Second image data representative of a second image having resolution that is different than that of the first image may be produced from at least a second portion of the image signal.
