20130186424 | DECORATIVE BEADED DEVICE FOR HAIR - A device particularly useful as a decorative hair accessory and as a way to keep hair in a braided style includes two opposing sections, a male section and a female section which, when coupled together or closed, create a channel for receiving braided hair. The two opposing sections have protrusions or teeth which may be sized to help keep the device in position on the braid and to help keep the braid from unraveling. The exterior of the two opposing sections are formed so as to have the appearance of a row of individual beads. Alignment posts and locking mechanisms may be positioned along the length of the device to help maintain the device in a closed, aligned position and securely attached to the hair. Optionally, the device may include an opener with a tapered end to facilitate opening of the device. | 07-25-2013 |

20130016584 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR OBTAINING SENSOR MOTION AND POSITION DATA FROM UNDERWATER ACOUSTIC SIGNALSAANM Zhou; JiangyingAACI DurhamAAST NCAACO USAAGP Zhou; Jiangying Durham NC USAANM Zachery; KarenAACI RaLeighAAST NCAACO USAAGP Zachery; Karen RaLeigh NC USAANM Qian; MingAACI CaryAAST NCAACO USAAGP Qian; Ming Cary NC USAANM Bogdanov; AlexanderAACI Simi ValleyAAST CAAACO USAAGP Bogdanov; Alexander Simi Valley CA US - Technologies are provided to recover motion, position, or navigation data of underwater sensors using bathymetry data. A method includes iteratively fitting data obtained by an underwater sensor from interactions between acoustic signals and an underwater floor, and deriving at least one of motion, position, or navigation data of the underwater sensor from the fitting. A standalone sonar can use the methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer programs to realize the derivation of motion, position, or navigation data without a position or motion sensor. | 01-17-2013 |

20090171240 | FUSION-BASED SPATIO-TEMPORAL FEATURE DETECTION FOR ROBUST CLASSIFICATION OF INSTANTANEOUS CHANGES IN PUPIL RESPONSE AS A CORRELATE OF COGNITIVE RESPONSE - A computationally efficient and robust approach for monitoring the instantaneous pupil response as a correlate to significant cognitive response to relevant stimuli derives data samples d(n) of the pupil diameter (area), v(n) of pupil velocity and a(n) of pupil acceleration from the pupillary response and segments the data samples into a sequence of time-shifted windows. A feature extractor extracts a plurality of spatio-temporal pupil features from the data samples from the response and baseline periods in each window. A classifier trained to detect patterns of the extracted spatio-temporal pupil features for relevant stimuli generates an output indicative of the occurrence of absence of a significant cognitive response in the subject to a relevant stimulus. | 07-02-2009 |
