Patent number: 12005021Abstract: Methods of operating a haptic actuator to apply physical and/or thermal sensations to a user to provide subjective symptom relief to a user are described. In some embodiments, a haptic actuator may be automatically activated when one or more detected user states are compared to one or more predetermined activation parameters to determine the user is experiencing an episode related to a condition of the user. In another embodiment, one or more operating parameters of a haptic actuator may be updated if the haptic actuator did not provided a desired amount of subjective symptom relief to a user during use. In yet another embodiment, a haptic actuator may create an event log based on activation events when the haptic actuator is used to provide symptom relief for a condition of the user.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2018Date of Patent: June 11, 2024Assignee: EMBR Labs IP LLCInventors: Matthew J.

Patent number: 11975807Abstract: An aquatic rescue vehicle formed by adding directional and speed controls to a watercraft along with an autonomous control system to guide the vehicle to specified waypoints is disclosed. The rescue vehicle includes search devices such as a radio direction finder (RDF) and an infrared sensor (or camera) to be used to narrow the search for an isolated person (IP). The rescue vehicle may be discharged from a larger watercraft or an airplane and autonomously set out on its rescue mission. The vehicle may first navigate to a designated waypoint near an IP, and then use signals gathered from the RDF and infrared sensor to finally locate, assist, and retrieve the IP. The vehicle also includes a self-righting mechanism so that the vehicle can complete its mission even under the most adverse conditions.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2021Date of Patent: May 7, 2024Assignee: United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Air ForceInventors: Hayk Azatyan, William Erwin, Anthony Ligouri, Travis Rennich, David Shald, Adam Warren

Patent number: 11967104Abstract: A method of determining the location of an object in a camera field of view is disclosed. The method may utilize a camera system that includes a digital video camera and a computer that runs image analysis software for analyzing images received from the camera. The image analysis software is configured to isolate pixel groups in each image. The method includes the steps of locating an object in the camera's field of view in which the object is represented by a set of pixels; identifying the centroid of the set of pixels representing the object; and calculating the location of the object relative to the camera based upon known parameters including the focal plane and camera lens location.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2021Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Air ForceInventors: Anthony Ligouri, Hayk Azatyan, William Erwin, Travis Rennich, David Shald, Adam Warren

Patent number: 11938990Abstract: This disclosure describes, in part, a mobile apparatus for identifying items. For instance, the mobile apparatus may include a frame, a basket that attaches to the frame, a tray that attaches to the frame, and a user-facing module that attaches to the frame. Weight sensors may be located beneath the basket and the tray in order to determine the weights of items added to the mobile apparatus. The user-facing module may include imaging devices, such as cameras, that the mobile apparatus uses to perform one or more functions. For example, the mobile apparatus may use the imaging devices to identify items placed within the basket, determine locations of the mobile apparatus within a facility, and/or the like. By including these components, the mobile apparatus is able to generate data that represents the items added to the mobile apparatus, the weights of the items, and the costs of the items.Type: GrantFiled: December 6, 2021Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Wade Burch, Robert David Serra, Matthew Clark Webster, Jacob A Siegel, Brendan Kyle McLeod, Jacob Paul Warren, Sridharan Thirumalai Vasu
