20090309893 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DISPLAYING AND COMMUNICATING COMPLEX GRAPHICS FILE INFORMATION - A method and system is disclosed which permits anyone with a web browser to view, zoom, markup, and edit CAD files without special software tools. This is accomplished by calculating and serving rasterized files in a format such as portable network graphic files that are readily viewed by a client using standard browser software. | 12-17-2009 |
20100045662 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DELIVERING AND INTERACTIVELY DISPLAYING THREE-DIMENSIONAL GRAPHICS - A method is provided whereby the user can view and interact with live, realtime 3D content using just a web browser, requiring no extra downloads or third party 3D plugins. The invention uses W3C standard bitmap formats, typically JPEG or PNG, as the delivery vehicle for server side rendered 3D content. The invention provides a 3D rendering application that runs on a web server and responds to commands from the user's web browser to manipulate, re-render and deliver new 3D rendered scenes back to the users' browser. The invention preferably uses Ajax—Asynchronous Javascript and XML to create the client side Web 3D scene manipulation tool set. | 02-25-2010 |

20090323301 | AUTOMOTIVE RELAY SYSTEM - An integrated relay system includes an automotive relay and a terminal interface. The automotive relay includes switching contacts and a casing. The casing at least partially surrounds the switching contacts and includes an aperture. The terminal interface is electrically connected with at least one of the switching contacts and is configured to receive a portion of a fuse. The terminal interface also passes through aperture and extends away from the casing. | 12-31-2009 |
20100076622 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETECTING RADIO FREQUENCY SIGNALS AND CONTROLLING VEHICLE OPERATIONS IN RESPONSE THERETO - In at least one embodiment, a system for determining the location of a wireless device with respect to a vehicle is provided. The system comprises a plurality of antennas positioned about the vehicle for receiving a radio frequency (RF) signal from the wireless device. The RF signal corresponds to at least one of a command and status related to a predetermined vehicle operation. The system further comprises a controller operably coupled to each antenna. The controller is configured to generate a location signal indicative of the location of the wireless device based on the arrival time of the RF signal at one or more antennas of the plurality of antennas and to control the operation of the predetermined vehicle operation based on the location signal. | 03-25-2010 |

20110074211 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SWITCHING FREQUENCY OF A POWER CONVERTER - In at least one embodiment, an apparatus for controlling a switching frequency of at least one power switch in a vehicle is provided. The apparatus comprises a power conversion circuit including a power switch. The power conversion circuit is configured to convert a first energy signal into a second energy signal and to control the power switch to operate at a first switching frequency, the first switching frequency generating a first set of harmonics. The power conversion circuit is further configured to receive frequency information from an entertainment device, the frequency information generating a second set of harmonics. The power conversion circuit is further configured to select a second switching frequency, the second switching frequency generating a third set of harmonics. The power conversion circuit is further configured to perform a distance measurement using the first set of harmonics, the second set of harmonics, and the third set of harmonics. | 03-31-2011 |

20100061534 | Multi-Platform Capable Inference Engine and Universal Grammar Language Adapter for Intelligent Voice Application Execution - A voice application creation and deployment system includes a voice application server for creating and serving voice applications to clients over a communication network; at least one voice portal node having access to the communication network, the portal node for facilitating client interaction with the voice applications; and an inference engine executable from the application server. In a preferred embodiment the inference engine is called during one or more predetermined points of an ongoing voice interaction to decide whether an inference of client need can be made based on analysis of existing data related to the interaction during a pre-determined point in an active call flow of the served voice application, and if an inference is warranted, determines which inference dialog will be executed and inserted into the call flow. | 03-11-2010 |
20110261935 | System for Managing Voice Files of a Voice Prompt Server - A software interface is provided for managing audio resources used in one or more voice applications. The software interface includes a first portion thereof for mapping the audio resources from storage to use-case positions in the one or more voice applications, a portion thereof for accessing the audio resources according to the mapping information and for performing modifications there of, a portion thereof for creating new audio resources; and a portion thereof for replication of modifications across distributed facilities. I a preferred application a developer can modify or replace existing audio resources and replicate links to the application code of the applications that use them. | 10-27-2011 |

20150066367 | Automatically Generating Route Directions Based On Signpost Data - A method, system, and/or computer program product automatically generates route directions based on signpost data. A calculated route from an origin to a destination includes multiple decision points where a user has more than one option to take. Geo-stamped images of signposts located at each decision point from the multiple decision points are received, and one or more series of signposts is compiled, where each series has a common signpost content. Conflicts in any overlapping series are resolved by using a measure of relative density of signpost content, and one or more decision points of the calculated route are replaced with instructions referring to the common signpost content of the series of signposts. Geo-stamped images of signposts of the series of signposts having the common signpost content are then displayed in a motor vehicle. | 03-05-2015 |
