20100159434 | Mixed Simulator and Uses Thereof - The subject invention provides mixed simulator systems that combine the advantages of both physical objects/simulations and virtual representations. In-context integration of virtual representations with physical simulations or objects can facilitate education and training. Two modes of mixed simulation are provided. In the first mode, a virtual representation is combined with a physical simulation or object by using a tracked display capable of displaying an appropriate dynamic virtual representation as a user moves around the physical simulation or object. In the second mode, a virtual representation is combined with a physical simulation or object by projecting the virtual representation directly onto the physical object or simulation. In further embodiments, user action and interaction can be tracked and incorporated within the mixed simulator system to provide a mixed reality after-action review. The subject mixed simulators can be used in many applications including, but not limited to healthcare, education, military, vocational schools, and industry. | 06-24-2010 |

20110079617 | ACTUATION DEVICE FOR A SPRAY CAN - The present invention provides an actuation device for a spray can of the type comprising a curl portion at the top of the spray can and a nozzle through which a pressurized fluid is dispensed through a top portion thereof. The actuation device includes a lever. The lever has an elongated slot through a portion thereof for receiving a portion of the nozzle. The lever also has a handle at one end and an engaging surface at the other end. The engaging surface engages the curl of the spray can and securely holds the actuation device on the spray can. When a force is applied to the handle to urge the handle towards the spray can, the lever depresses the nozzle to thereby dispense the pressurized fluid therethrough. | 04-07-2011 |

20090142323 | METHODS FOR TREATING A DISORDER BY REGULATING GPRC6A - A disorder related to a non-genomic androgen response or a metabolic syndrome can be treated, inhibited, and/or prevented by regulating an expression level and/or activity of GPRC6A. Such a method can include identifying an individual with a disorder associated with a non-genomic androgen response or metabolic syndrome; and administering to the individual in need thereof an agent capable of regulating an expression level and/or activity of GPRC6A thereby treating the disorder associated with the non-genomic androgen response or metabolic syndrome. The regulation of GPRC6A can increase or decrease the concentration of a sex hormone within said individual, as needed for a particular disease. Such regulating can also be used to treat, inhibit, or prevent the symptoms of such a disease. | 06-04-2009 |

20100106954 | Multi-Layer Content Protecting Microcontroller - The present invention relates to a microcontroller designed for protection of intellectual digital content. The microcontroller includes a secure CPU, a real-time cipher, and a user programmable multi-layer access control system for internal memory realized by programmable nonvolatile memory. Programmable nonvolatile memory allows in-system and in-application programming for the end user. The programmable nonvolatile memory is mainly used for program code and operating parameter storage. The multiple-layer access control is an integral part of the CPU, providing confidentiality protection to embedded digital content by controlling reading, writing, and/or execution of a code segment according to a set of user-programmed parameters. The cipher incorporates a set of cryptographic rules for data encryption and decryption with row and column manipulation for data storage. All cryptographic operations are executed in parallel with CPU run time without incurring additional latency and delay for system operation. | 04-29-2010 |
