A network of data processing-based and telecommunications-based apparatuses and systems are disclosed, including a product sub-system that interacts with a user, gathers information from the user, communicates the information to the product's vendor, and receives new pre-programmed interactions from the vendor for future interactions with the user. In addition to this computing / networking apparatus which is a sub-system in or attached to a product or service, other components of this invention include a data processing system for constructing and downloading pre-programmed interactions to the product sub-system; a communications sub-system for transmitting the data directly from the product sub-system to the vendor's computer; a communications apparatus for reading the product sub-system's data, transmitting it to the vendor's computer, and downloading new pre-programmed interactions to the product sub-system; a data processing system that resides in the product sub-system and conducts numerous types of interactions with a user; and a data processing system that resides in the vendor's computer and analyzes and reports the information gathered from product users. This invention may be built into a variety of products and services to establish networks of customer-vendor interactions and communications. It makes possible new customer roles and contributions to the design and development of products and services, and the nature of customer-vendor relationships. A variety of functions are enabled by this invention, which include (depending on the configuration of a particular product sub-system) inquiries, reports, suggestions, help, interactive services, transactions and two-way real-time communications. As a complete system, this invention may be viewed as a new medium through which customers interact directly with products and services at the time they are using them, to describe their conception of what the product or service should be and how the vendor should work with them to satisfy their needs better. The customer data, suggestions and other information are transmitted to the product vendor's computer where they are collected, analyzed by automated means and presented in automated reports to product managers, product designers and other decision makers. This source of continuous customer-based information may assist in improving products, services and customer relationships both sooner and more accurately, thereby producing strategic business advantages over competitors who do not engage in a similar improvement dialog with their customers. Over time, the cost of incorporating such sub-systems may fall and the impact from using them may rise, producing a greater reliance on customer involvement and customer input into a growing range of business decisions. This may produce a gradual transfer, from vendors to customers, of conceptual commercial guidance, both in individual cases and in aggregate. This invention suggests the emergence of a “partnership capitalist” economy in which a variety of interactive products and services link customers and vendors with networks that are built into those products and services, producing greater understanding, efficiency and accuracy in designing, manufacturing and selling the products, services and lifestyles that customers truly want.

Emergency signs and combination emergency signs and emergency lights wherein the combination signs are compact for shipment and are energy efficient using first interior light emitting diodes, powered by an AC power source, for illumination of messages formed in at least one side wall of the emergency signs and having at least one emergency light emitting diode lamp for providing emergency lighting in the event of AC power failure and wherein the at least one emergency light emitting diode lamp, in some embodiments, is selectively deployable and adjustable relative to the signs, and in others, is fixedly mounted relative to the signs.

Examination of the structure and function of blood vessels is an important means of monitoring the health of a subject. Such examination can be important for disease diagnoses, monitoring specific physiologies over the short- or long-term, and scientific research. This disclosure describes technology and various embodiments of a system and method for imaging blood vessels and the intra-vessel blood flow, using at least laser speckle contrast imaging, with high speed so as to provide a rapid estimate of vessel-related or blood flow-related parameters.

The invention discloses a multi-language order processing system and a method thereof. The multi-language order processing system comprises a server, more than one retail terminal device, more than one user terminal device, a network and a network router, wherein the server is respectively connected with the retail terminal devices and the user terminal devices through the network and the network router to carry out communication and transmission; clients, guests, employees and managers can use respective preferred languages to obtain order and bill information. The multi-language order processing system can simultaneously manage the information at different places, and controls the different client terminals, printer groups and order and bill information. The information transmission between the modules can be implemented by using a wireless network or a wired network. The multi-language order processing system and the method realize the positive interaction between people and the system, and accord with the habits of people; misunderstanding and barriers between people of a variety of languages are reduced; the process is simplified, and efficiency and benefit are increased.

The invention relates to an automatic detection device and method for an isolating switch state based on image processing. The device includes a camera module, a processing terminal and a control terminal. The camera module is connected to the processing terminal. The camera module includes a housing and a camera ball that is rotated in the housing. A drive module is arranged in the housing, and the control terminal is connected to the drive module. , and the driving module is linked with the camera ball. The detection method includes decomposing the camera video to obtain several pictures; preprocessing the pictures to obtain characteristic pictures highlighting the isolating switch; detecting and tracking the isolating switch; judging the state of the isolating switch according to the tracking situation. The invention automatically detects the state of the isolating switch, replaces the operator's on-site confirmation, reduces invalid labor, and improves efficiency and benefit. At the same time, the camera module can be rotated and adjusted, so that the camera angle can be flexibly adjusted to obtain better images for subsequent processing.

The invention discloses an environment-friendly efficient pyrolysis device for garbage. In order to overcome the defects that existing garbage pyrolysis is prone to generate dioxin which pollutes the environment, poor in pyrolysis effect, high in processing cost and operating cost and the like, the environment-friendly efficient pyrolysis device is characterized in that a garbage input mechanism communicates with a primary pyrolysis cavity which communicates with a secondary pyrolysis cavity; the primary pyrolysis cavity is provided with a plurality of horizontally-placed hot air pipes and vertically-placed hot air pipes under the horizontally-placed hot air pipes at intervals; the horizontally-placed hot air pipes are rotationally connected with a power mechanism; convex spines are arranged on the horizontally-placed hot air pipes; the secondary pyrolysis cavity is provided with a plurality of hot air spraying pipes at intervals; and protecting walls are arranged outside the hot air spraying pipes. The environment-friendly efficient pyrolysis device is used for processing the household garbage, the medical garbage and the like; the garbage subjected to incineration pyrolysis through the environment-friendly efficient pyrolysis device cannot generate dioxin, and thus the dioxin processing cost and the auxiliary fuel cost can be reduced; in addition, the structure is simplified, and the manufacturing cost and the using cost are low; and garbage incineration pyrolysis processing is quick and thorough, the effect is good, and the efficiency and benefits are high.
