Patent number: 11780969Abstract: A composition of matter including a crosslinked bottlebrush polymer, wherein the crosslinker units in the composition of matter are soluble with the bottlebrush polymer. In one example, the crosslinked bottlebrush polymer is tailored as a single phase (solvent free) elastomer useful in a capacitive pressure sensing device. A novel embodiment of the present invention further includes demonstration of a universal approach to form solvent-free bottlebrush polymer networks by photo-crosslinking mixtures of well-defined bottlebrush precursors and bis-benzophenone-based additives. This method has been proven effective with a wide variety of different side-chain chemistries.Type: GrantFiled: May 13, 2020Date of Patent: October 10, 2023Assignee: THE REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIAInventors: Michael L.

Publication number: 20190355016Abstract: A system and method is disclosed for advertising through a social network by immersion of participants in a sponsored mobile game. A game application for the sponsored game is developed on a server and deployed on consumer devices connected to the server. The game application, operating on a smart phone, utilizes onboard GPS and camera subsystems to carry out and facilitate the game functions. A dashboard is provided for designing the game around an advertising campaign. The game application is syndicated and shared through a consumer's social media community. The game is tracked by the server. Game information and rewards are delivered to participants during and after the game. In one aspect, the game involves a participant gathering digital permits prior to and during the game which are used to complete a tagging event with other participants. Rewards such as redeemable coupons are based on actions at sponsor locations.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 5, 2019Publication date: November 21, 2019Applicant: Blue Calypso, LLCInventors: Andrew E.

Patent number: 10395548Abstract: A computer-based system for relational modality assessment with projective testing is disclosed herein. The system includes a computer operably associated with a local input device located proximate to the computer, a visual display device, and memory storing executable instructions. The computer is specially programmed to generate a relational inventory test comprising a plurality of questions pertaining to a plurality of diagnostic categories, and a projective sequence test comprising a plurality of artwork assignments and corresponding questionnaires pertaining to a plurality of role states. The computer is further specially programmed to generate a quantitative assessment from the testee's responses to the relational inventory test, and to generate a structured output report using the testee's artwork and responses to the questionnaires of the projective sequence test so that the testee is capable of self-diagnosing his or her psychological state.Type: GrantFiled: December 30, 2016Date of Patent: August 27, 2019Inventors: Albert J.
