Jan 13, 1998

Appl. No.:

09/006440

Inventors:

Allen N. Garroway - Davidsonville MD

International Classification:

G01V 300

US Classification:

324322, 324318

Abstract:

An apparatus which includes a probe for detecting a resonance signal induced in a sample. The probe and the resonance signal each have a respective, corresponding Q, and the ratio, Qâ, of the Q of the probe to the Q of the resonance signal is relatively large. Preferably, Qâ is greater than, or equal to, 1.

G02B 26/00
G02F 1/01

US Classification:

359238, 359245, 359290

International Classification:

H04N 7/173

US Classification:

725088000, 725102000, 725090000

Abstract:

A user is provided with the capability to view only those segments of TV broadcast programs and/or pre-recorded digital programs that are identified by the user (or other persons, e.g., parents) as acceptable. Preferences for the types of material that is desired for viewing are provided. The provider analyzes a selected program and creates a user specific segmentation file that, when played along with the recorded program, causes the program to automatically skip specific types of material (e.g., commercials, violence, pornography, etc.) and/or jumps to specific material desirable without the user having to intercede during the viewing. The segmentation file is distributed to the user and the user provides a fee to the provider for making and distributing this customized segmentation file.

US Patent:

46424229, Feb 10, 1987

Filed:

Dec 16, 1985

Appl. No.:

6/809639

Inventors:

Richard L. Garwin - Scarsdale NY
James L. Levine - Yorktown Heights NY

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

G08C 2100

US Classification:

178 18

Abstract:

Correlation of light beam movement with electrical timing in a light beam interrupt data input interface device is provided by determining the magnitude of an angular difference between the electrical system and a line through the scanning axis for use as a correction factor. The correlation principle involves a combination of measurement with respect to the electrical system and the application of geometric principles to provide a correction factor.

US Patent:

Filed:

Feb 13, 1997

Appl. No.:

8/800934

Inventors:

Richard Lawrence Garwin - Scarsdale NY
James Lewis Levine - Yorktown Heights NY
Michael Alan Schappert - Fishkill NY

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

G09G 500

US Classification:

345156

Abstract:

This invention provides an optical pointing device, such as those used to control devices such as televisions, VCRs, video games and computers, which have improved accuracy and lower sensitivity to detrimental effects, such as noise and user hand unsteadiness, than prior art devices. Such pointing devices emit light beams, such as infrared light, which when received by a receiver are used to position cursors or other symbolic shapes, such as sliding volume controls. An advantage of the pointing device of the invention is that light emitting diodes of conventional manufacture, known to have poor optical precision and hence variable angular emission profiles, may nevertheless be used in the pointing device of the invention.

International Classification:

H01L 4108

US Classification:

310328

Abstract:

A piezoelectric touch screen assembly can be attached to mounting ears on an ordinary CRT assembly. The touch screen assembly includes a frame, a glass plate which is seated on a gasket at one surface of the frame and a plurality of piezoelectric elements which are bonded to the glass plate and are "trapped" between the CRT face and the glass plate. Studs extend outwardly from the CRT ears through openings in the frame. Coil springs are placed on the studs and are trapped by washer nuts to load the touch screen assembly toward the CRT by a predetermined amount. Grommets with a unique cross sectional configuration are mounted at the openings through the frame. The grommet is designed to provide minimal resistance to movement of the touch screen assembly toward or away from the CRT face but greater resistance to movement of the assembly in other directions.

Appl. No.:

Inventors:

James L. Levine - Yorktown Heights NY

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

G09G 100

US Classification:

340709

Abstract:

An interface and terminal are provided between data processing operations and the movement of an indicator member of stylus. The interface and terminal identifies the coordinates of the position of the stylus by the angles that a light beam reflected from the stylus makes with a reference and uses a history of coordinate data for specific coordinate selection. The stylus position is sensed by interruption of light. The terminal retains and displays a trace of the stylus movement. The interface and terminal are useful both for manual to computer input, and, for remote data processing to mechanical movement, such as in displays and manufacturing operations. Accuracy of the order of 0. 01 inches in 12 inches is achieved.
