Abstract: Systems and methods for providing improved child-resistant safety container systems. Exemplary container systems include a container body having a registration mark and two apertures, a cap body having a registration mark and two apertures, and a locking pin. The container body and cap body can be configured so that when they are engaged, there is alignment between the registration marks of the container and cap bodies, and there is vertical alignment and radial alignment between respective apertures of the container and cap bodies so as to allow insertion of the locking pin through the apertures.

Abstract: A compact hybrid cell hydrogen generator that produces hydrogen-oxygen gas for use with vehicles, internal combustion engines and other applications that solves design shortcomings of present state of the art systems while presenting an efficient and reliable, compact, cost efficient system of producing hydrogen-oxygen gas without requirements or investments into expensive infrastructure, or ill fitting and cumbersome equipment.

Abstract: In an embodiment of a ring laser gyroscope, a hollow bandgap fiber is filled with a gas or material that will generate laser beams within the fiber upon being excited by an energy source. A detector coupled to the fiber detects a standing wave pattern within the fiber, wherein changes in the detected standing wave pattern indicates a corresponding change in the orientation of the fiber.

Abstract: A cell in one example comprises an alkali metal and a coating of parylene on an interior surface of the cell. In one implementation, the alkali metal may be an optically pumped gaseous phase of an alkali metal. The parylene coating minimizes interaction of the excited state of the alkali metal, increases lifetime of the excited state, and minimizes interaction of nuclear spin states with the cell walls.

Abstract: An exemplary system that provides for navigation redundancy includes first and second navigation components adapted to determine first and second navigation parameters, respectively. A network component determines a relationship between the first and second navigation components, wherein the relationship describes a navigation solution for the second navigation component in terms of the first navigation component. A health monitor determines a health indicator for the second navigation component. The second navigation component determines a navigation solution for the second navigation parameters when the health indicator indicates a healthy condition. The network component determines a navigation solution for the second navigation parameters based on the relationship that describes behavior of the second navigation component in terms of the first navigation component when the health indicator indicates an unhealthy condition.

Abstract: An exemplary navigation system uses a master navigation component at a first location with a first sensor in a vehicle and a slave navigation component with a second sensor at a second location that is a variable displacement to the first location due to physical deformation of the vehicle. Static and dynamic location components provide static and dynamic information of the displacement between the first and second locations. A flexural model based on the deformation characteristics calculates the dynamic displacement. An error estimator estimates errors in the navigation measurement data of the slave navigation component based on the displacement information.

Abstract: An exemplary navigation system uses a master navigation component at a first location in a vehicle and a slave navigation component at a second location that is a variable displacement to the first location due to physical deformation of the vehicle. Static and dynamic location components provide static and dynamic information of the displacement between the first and second locations. An error estimator estimates errors in the navigational measurement data generated by the slave navigation component based on the navigational measurement data generated by the master navigation component and the displacement information provided by the static and dynamic location components. The master navigation component corrects the navigation measurement data of the slave navigation component based on the determined error and translates the corrected navigation measurement data of the slave navigation component into navigational measurement data in its coordinate system.
