Appl. No.:

09/769794

Inventors:

Steven Sanders - Thornwood NY, US

International Classification:

G06F017/60

US Classification:

705/036000

Abstract:

A method and system for investing in customizable investment products utilizes a retail distributor platform with a retail customer interface coupled to an exchange platform and a product market maker platform also coupled to the exchange platform. An investor is allowed to access the exchange platform and enter a selection of at least one customizable investment product from a list of such products displayed for the investor. Upon receipt of the investor's selection, the investor is prompted to customize the product by entering a selection of terms for the product from a menu of terms displayed for the investor. A pricing engine of the exchange platform calculates the best price quote for the customized investment product on the basis of input from a plurality of competing product market makers and sends the price quote to the investor. Upon receipt of the investor's acceptance of the price quote, the exchange platform executes a trade for the investor based on the acceptance.

US Classification:

219486

Abstract:

A low cost system for permitting the remote load management control of electrical residential room heating units that is compatible with existing heating systems of the type wherein each room heating element is controlled by a manually settable line voltage thermostat responsive to ambient room temperature. Included in the system is a normally closed low voltage operable thermal relay included immediately downstream of a resident circuit breaker and in the power transmission line for each room heating element and an associated single user programmable set back thermostat for shifting said thermal relays from normally closed to open position in response to residential dictated parameters of operation capable of also being operated in response to a remotely generated signal from a load management control center.

Abstract:

A system for processing user input includes an input device, an input processing unit, a high-latency subsystem, a low-latency subsystem, input processing unit software for generating signals in response to user inputs, and an output device. The low-latency subsystem processes signals corresponding to at least some events and generates corresponding programmable low-latency output, the programmable output being based, at least in part, on state information being maintained by the high-latency subsystem. The high-latency subsystem processes signals corresponding to at least some events, and generates corresponding output, the output of the high-latency subsystem being higher latency than the output of the low-latency subsystem with respect to a given event.

International Classification:

A61B 5/11
G01H 11/08

Abstract:

A sensor system for determining activity of muscles. A plurality of receiving antennas are located on a wearable located proximate to a user skin's surface. A transmitting antenna is located at a location proximate to a user's skin. The transmitting antenna transmits infuses a signal to a user. Measurements of the infused signal are performed on the signals received by the receiving antennas. The measurements of the infused signal are processed and activity of the muscles of the user is determined based on the processed measurements.

Abstract:

A close-range motion detector has at least one transmitter, at least one receiver, and at least one more transmitter or receiver. The transmitter(s) transmit, and the receiver(s) receive signals in one of the ultrasonic or mm-wave ranges. Multiple transmitters or receivers are spaced apart from one-another along a plane, and transmission of a signal takes place at a known time. Echos of the signal that bounce of a scatterer are received and digitized during a receive window, and the time-of-flight is determined using CAF. Time scaling may be determined as well, and may be determined using CAF. The determined time-of-flight is used to determine an X- Y-coordinate for the scatterer, and its motion (e.g., velocity) can be determined, which are output. In an embodiment, a such a close-range motion detector can be implemented on the side of a smart-watch, making a virtual writing surface on the back of a user's hand.

Abstract:

Methods are disclosed for dynamic assignment of possible channels in a touch sensitive device having rows and columns. In an embodiment, a method determines a first signal space in which to generate signals for use in the touch sensor. Signals are then generated in the first signal space on separate ones of the rows and a column signal is sensed on a column. The first signal space is replaced with a second signal space, and a second plurality of signals is generated for use in the touch sensor in the second frequency space. The second plurality of signals is sensed to identify a touch event in the touch sensitive device.

Abstract:

A low-latency touch sensitive device provides a method for determining a location of a touch event thereon. The touch sensitive device row conductors and column conductors, the path of each of the row conductors crossing the path of each of the column conductors. Each of a set of orthogonal row signals are simultaneously transmitted on a respective one of at least some of the row conductors and an amount of each of the plurality of orthogonal row signals present on each of the plurality of column conductors is detected. A set of orthogonal column signals are simultaneously transmitted on a respective one of at least some of the column conductors. An amount of each of the orthogonal column signals present on each of the plurality of row conductors is detected. The detected amount of each of the plurality of orthogonal row signals and the detected amount of each of the plurality of orthogonal column signals is used to determine the location of a touch event on the device.

Abstract:

A touch sensitive keyboard is disclosed. In one embodiment, a touch sensitive keyboard is provided that has a touchpad area separate from the keyboard keys. The keyboard is configured to disabled touchpad sensitivity when certain touch signals are received. In another embodiment, a touch sensitive keyboard is used as a controller. In a controller mode, keys on a touch sensitive keyboard are adapted to output a signal strength corresponding to a distance between the key and a finger operating as a control. In an embodiment, a touch sensitive keyboard includes a processor adapted to output a keystroke in response to one of the plurality of touch sensitive keys being pressed, and to output one or more touch points determined by interpolating signal strength for each of the plurality of touch sensitive keys on the keyboard.
