Abstract:

The present invention provides a systems, methods, and products for enhanced user navigation to compliment (but not necessarily replace) a computer keyboard and mouse by providing a robust navigation interface. The present invention may comprise: a minimally necessary group of commands; combining the functionality a set of at least two command calls into a single logical button; for a single button, prioritizing a set of command calls from first to last and then calling each until one is accepted; logically remapping commands to buttons for a navigational device coupled to a physically rotate-able display device; and mapping a substitute command to a logical button for when the button is engaged in a predetermined manner other than the primary manner in which the logical button is engaged (e.g., double-clicking, flicking, press-and-hold, etc.) so that a substitute command can in fact be issued, among others.

Filed:

Feb 17, 1995

Appl. No.:

8/390598

Inventors:

Richard Alfred Greene - Westford MA
Patricia Ann Kasila - Windham NH
Mark Norman Bobrow - Lexington MA

Assignee:

E. I. Du Pont de Nemours and Company - Wilmington DE

International Classification:

C01N 33566

US Classification:

435 724

Abstract:

This invention relates to a cell enumeration immunoassay which uses a calibrated standard, i. e. , a substance which behaves like the sample under study and the concentration of which can be correlated to the concentration of the cells. This immunoassay is an efficient alternative to flow cytometry.

Filed:

May 10, 1988

Appl. No.:

7/192087

Inventors:

Richard A. Greene - Westford MA
Patricia A. Kasila - Windham NH

Assignee:

E. I. Du Pont de Nemours and Company - Wilmington DE

International Classification:

C12Q 170
G01N 3353

US Classification:

435 5

Abstract:

This invention relates to an improved assay device and assay for detecting or quantitating the presence or absence of a substance in a sample. The device has multiple layers comprising a permeable layer (a) having a capture reagent attached to less than the entire membrane, a selectively permeable layer (b) which does not allow assay reagents to pass through (b) and an absorbent layer (c). Layer (b) is in communication with layers (a) and (c). Layer (b) has at least one hole extending therethrough and the hole or holes are directly below the capture reagent in layer (a). The area of the hole or the combined area of the holes is less than the area covered by the capture reagent. This invention also relates to a method of reducing background color development in an absorbent layer of an assay device.

Assignee:

Nen Life Science Products, Inc. - Boston MA

International Classification:

C12Q 168
C12Q 148
C12P 1934

US Classification:

435 5

Abstract:

A method for detecting reverse transcriptase (RT), utilizing RT-catalyzed generation of cDNA complementary to an RNA template and detecting cDNA in a DNA hybridization reaction, is provided. Also provided is a method for detecting and/or quantitating drug resistance of reverse transcriptase in a sample and a method for evaluating ability of a compound to inhibit reverse transcriptase activity.

International Classification:

G09G 3/00
G06T 3/40
G06T 9/00

Abstract:

In one embodiment, one or more computing systems may determine a first display content to be displayed on a display. The first display content may be associated with one or more frames. The one or more computing systems may determine an optimization operation for the first display content based on one or more first parameters associated with the display or one or more second parameters associated with the one or more frames. The one or more computing systems may adjust the one or more frames based on the optimization operation. The adjusted one or more frames may have at least one optimized attribute comparing to the one or more frames before being adjusted. The one or more computing systems may output the adjusted one or more frames to the display to represent the first display content.

International Classification:

H04N 19/423
H04N 19/182
H04N 19/176

Abstract:

In an embodiment, a method involves temporarily storing, by each of multiple slots of a ring buffer, a pixel block of multiple pixels blocks of an image until the pixel block is encoded, performing, by multiple processor units connected in series, different encoding operations in an encoding pipeline, each processor unit configured to selectively access the pixel block from a slot of the multiple slots to determine characteristics of the accessed pixel block, wherein the multiple processing units are configured to sequentially obtain access to a slot of the multiple slots and concurrently process the pixel blocks stored in different ones of the multiple slots, and selectively accessing and encoding, by an encoder unit, the pixel block stored in a slot of the multiple slots based on the characteristics of the pixel block determined by the multiple processing units.
