See-through near-eye display glasses with a light transmissive wedge shaped illumination system

TL;DR: In this article, an optical assembly includes a wedge optic, an input edge, an angled surface adjacent the input edge and an unangled surface adjacent to the edge and opposite the angled surface.
Patent

User interface for predictive traffic

TL;DR: In this paper, a mapping module calculates a route and an estimated time of traversal for a route between a beginning geographic location and an ending geographic location based on the predictive traffic data and the mapping data.
Patent

Direct mailing in a geo-spatial environment

TL;DR: In this article, a method and system of direct mailing in a geo-spatial environment is described, which includes generating a community network of user profiles, each user profile associated with a verified geographic location and at least one of a contact address, associating a first user with a first profile, selecting a mail mode, selecting communication, generating a first display view to include a map view embodied by the community network, at least a portion of the user profiles represented at a location in the map view associated with the verified geographical location of the first user profile, and generating a second

RADAR: an in-building RF-based user location and tracking system

TL;DR: RADAR is presented, a radio-frequency (RF)-based system for locating and tracking users inside buildings that combines empirical measurements with signal propagation modeling to determine user location and thereby enable location-aware services and applications.

Optimized Link State Routing Protocol (OLSR)

TL;DR: The Optimized Link State Routing protocol is an optimization of the classical link state algorithm tailored to the requirements of a mobile wireless LAN and provides optimal routes (in terms of number of hops).
