US Patent:

20060061595, Mar 23, 2006

Filed:

May 31, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/516554

Inventors:

Patricia Goede - Bountiful UT, US
Jason Lauman - Salt Lake City UT, US
Christopher Cochella - Salt Lake City UT, US

International Classification:

G09G 5/00

US Classification:

345619000

Abstract:

A method and system for visually annotating an image. Annotations and notes to images, such as digital medical and healthcare images, may be stored in a structured vector representation alongside image information in a single, non-volatile and portable file or in a separate file from the image. The annotations may be composed of point, line and polygon drawings and text symbols, labels or definitions and captions or descriptions. The annotations may be structured in a manner that facilitates grouping and manipulation as user defined groups. The annotations may be related to an image but not inextricably bound such that the original image is completely preserved. Annotations may further be selectively displayed on the image for context appropriate viewing. The annotations may be retrieved for purposes such as editing, printing, display, indexing and reporting for example, and may be displayed on an image for interactive use with an embedded self-contained user interface.

Filed:

Mar 30, 2009

Appl. No.:

12/414393

Inventors:

Christopher Cochella - Salt Lake City UT, US

International Classification:

A63H 18/00
E01B 23/00

US Classification:

446444, 238 10 E

Abstract:

A hobby track component includes a track section having a first end and a second end, the track section including a generally planar bed, a first guide rail having a generally planar first interior wall extending away from the bed, a second guide rail having a generally planar second interior wall extending away from the bed; the second interior wall being spaced apart from the first interior wall, a first magnet positioned within a recess defined in the first end of the track section, and a second magnet protruding from the second end of the track section.

Appl. No.:

13/612383

Inventors:

Christopher Cochella - Salt Lake City UT, US

International Classification:

A63H 33/04

US Classification:

446 85

Abstract:

Building sets including a plurality of blocks and a plurality of clips configured to engage a thickness of one or more of the blocks. Each clip includes a base and first and second substantially parallel extensions extending from the base and defining a channel therebetween into which a thickness of a block is receivable. The width of the channel is substantially equal to and slightly less than the thickness of the block receivable within the channel so that the thickness is frictionally retained therein. The clip may include a magnet enclosed within the base so that the base of a first clip may be magnetically coupled to the base of another clip, and each clip may in turn be frictionally coupled to a block received between the extensions of the respective clip. In one embodiment, the clip includes a plurality of channels.
