The brake is released by re-actuation by brake pedal, such that the brake pressure is relieved with engine power increase. Pref. the operational state is acoustically or optically indicated, i.e. both the brake lock and release. Pref. the acoustic and/or optical signaling is controlled by the brake system. The actuation is carried out by exceeding a given pressure point.

A method of optimizing debt collection attitudinally classifies debtors into one of several attitudinal segments. The approach uses an assement of curren t attitudes rather than past behaviors as to predict future behavior. Each segment can be addressed with an offer, which is a combination of attributes which together, have an expected, measurable, and predictable response from the debtor. Debt c...

The present invention comprises a solid-state system for reading information from a photonics diffractive memory. An acousto-optic deflector directs a convergent light beam onto a micr-mirror array which then reflects the light beam onto the photonics diffractive memory at a predetermined point and angl e so as to access a packet of information. The compact architecture for this diffractive optics...
