Abstract:
Improved optical measuring devices and methods are disclosed for checking certain measurements taken of a patient's face before these measurements are used to create eyeglass lenses for the patient. Embodiments of the invention include a receptacle or bracket for receiving an eyeglass frame having demonstration lenses mounted therein. The frame is held in place, and one or more mechanical structures are provided below the frame which support one or more movable markers, typically one for each lens. The structures are moved according to the measurements taken of the patient's face. A stamping or marking mechanism is provided on each structure which is used to mark the pupil location on each respective lens after the structures are moved according to the patient measurements. The marked lenses are then taken to the patient for verification and modification of measurements, if necessary. Once the measurements have been verified, final lenses may be created.

Abstract:
Systems and methods for managing digital assets in a distributed computing environment are described. Meta-data for the digital assets is stored separately from the digital assets. Meta-data for some of the digital assets is copied and stored at a central location. Meta-data for the digital assets is generated by clients of the system.

Abstract:
Apparatus and associated methods may relate to a unitary body having a hardness of between 20 and 35 according to the Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS) and adapted to be removably inserted into the canal 10 of an ear. In an illustrative example, the body may include a central portion between an adapter portion disposed at the proximal end of the body to couple an audio signal from an audio signal source to the central lumen. The retention portion may be disposed at a distal end of the body along a distal end axis. When inserted in the ear canal, the retention portion may be adapted to engage the canal wall between a prominence and the eardrum membrane with comfort for extended periods of time, including during physical activities, without falling out of the ear. Some embodiments by be packaged as a kit containing pairs in a range of predetermined sizes.
