Electronic Talking Stick
20190361403 · 2019-11-28 ·

An electronic talking stick has a body having an outer casing, of a size to fit in a user's hand, a power supply powering circuitry within the body, an electronic timer operable within the body, an on/off switch, and an alert mechanism adapted to cause a user-noticeable alert at specific times according to the timer. Upon applying power by the on/off switch, the timer begins to count down from a pre-programmed time, wherein the alert mechanism generates a timed-out alert when the timer reaches zero, and wherein removing power from the circuitry resets the timer.

10474106 · 2019-11-12 ·

A trigonometric function display clock includes a clock face that has a center aligned with a central axis, axial markings aligned with an x-axis and a y-axis, and a secondary circle having a diameter equal to a radius of the axial markings. A first point on the secondary circle is aligned at the center of the central axis, and the secondary circle is configured to be rotatable about the first point. The secondary circle is configured to overlap and align with at least a portion of the axial markings as the secondary circle rotates about the first point.

MEANS FOR USING MICROSTRUCTURE OF MATERIALS SURFACE AS A UNIQUE IDENTIFIER

The present application concerns the visual identification of materials or documents for tracking or authentication purposes.

It describes methods to automatically authenticate an object by comparing some object images with reference images, the object images being characterized by the fact that visual elements used for comparison are non-disturbing for the naked eye. In some described approaches it provides the operator with visible features to locate the area to be imaged. It also proposes ways for real-time implementation enabling user friendly detection using mobile devices like smart phones.

Mechanical watch having an integrated tracking module
11966200 · 2024-04-23 ·

A mechanical watch includes an internal tracking module. The tracking module includes a transmitter, a microprocessor, and optionally a GPS module and a power source. The components of the tracking module are integrated into the watch by embedding them within one or more components of the mechanical watch. If a watch is lost or stolen, the tracking module may be actuated to provide location data over a network to a software application. To conserve power, the tracking module only actively receives and/or transmits signals periodically during intermittent windows of time.
