20120194631 | FUNCTIONALITY FOR INDICATING DIRECTION OF ATTENTION - A communication system is described herein which provides an indicator that helps hub participants of a meeting (or other environmental setting) determine a direction of attention of a satellite participant (who is not physically present at the meeting). The indicator can be implemented as a mechanical pointer, a solid-state display mechanism, a rotating display mechanism, a display mechanism which presents visual information that reflects directionality, and so on. The communication system can assess the directionality of the satellite participant based on any combination of control inputs from explicit input mechanism(s) and/or implicit input mechanism(s). The communication system can also choose between explicit and/or implicit control of the indicator based on at least one selection criterion. | 08-02-2012 |

20090283766 | Methods for increasing film thickness during the deposition of silicon films using liquid silane materials - Embodiments in accordance with the present invention relate to the fabrication of thin (>1 μm) polycrystalline, nanocrystalline, or amorphous silicon films on a substrate. Particular embodiments utilize liquid sources of silane, including but not limited to cyclohexasilane (CHS), cyclopentasilane (CPS) or related derivatives of these compounds. In one embodiment, the silane is applied in liquid form contained by the use of a series of raised walls. Subsequent polymerization results in the material being a solid form. In other embodiments, the silane is applied as a liquid which is then frozen, with subsequent localized melting allowing polymerization to convert the material into a stable solid form. Embodiments of the present invention are particularly suited for forming thick (>10 μm) silicon films needed to achieve light absorption efficiencies deemed acceptable for thin film photovoltaic devices. | 11-19-2009 |

20150252941 | POST CONNECTING BRACKET FOR ORNAMENTAL FENCES - A post connecting bracket for ornamental fences is comprised by a hollow post embracing section defined by a pair of spaced-apart parallel side was and an interconnecting and wall. A projecting tube connecting formation extends from the hollow post embracing section to support pre-formed fence sections. The hollow post embracing section has adjustable bracket connections for removably attaching thereto a swivel attachment bracket. The swivel attachment bracket is securable to any of the pair of spaced-apart parallel side walls and the interconnecting and wall and positionable at three vertical positions. | 09-10-2015 |

20090088705 | APPLICATION SYSTEM FOR TOPICALLY APPLIED COMPOSITIONS - The present invention provides a system and method of delivery of topical compositions, such as povidone iodine, anti-itch compositions or anti-fungal compositions, for home use that is effective, yet spreading to non-target areas. A plurality of absorbent pads are located in a container, a fluid containing the composition absorbed onto the pads, the pads being sufficiently absorbent to accept a unit dose of the fluid therein, such that the pads in the container when handled are moist but not soaking, the dose applied with slight pressure when the pad contacts the target area, thereby avoiding spread of the fluid to non-target areas, or dripping onto nearby surfaces. | 04-02-2009 |
