Patent number: 11431409Abstract: An improved technique for acoustic sensing involves, in one embodiment, launching into a medium, a plurality of groups of pulse-modulated electromagnetic-waves. The frequency of electromagnetic waves in a pulse within a group differs from the frequency of the electromagnetic waves in another pulse within the group. The energy scattered by the medium is detected and, in one embodiment, may be used to determine a characteristic of the environment of the medium. For example, if the medium is a buried optical fiber into which light pulses have been launched in accordance with the invention, the presence of acoustic waves within the region of the buried fiber can be detected.Type: GrantFiled: April 5, 2021Date of Patent: August 30, 2022Assignee: AT&T Intellectual Property II, L.P.Inventors: Justin Hayward, Andrew B. Lewis, Stuart Russell

Publication number: 20200064096Abstract: This device is designed to universally attach to firearms for both left, right, and dual handed use. It assists users of firearms who may or may not have a deformity of their hands from damage sustained by birth or environmental accident, resulting in limited use of Phalanges and Metacarpals. User input activates the device with the closing an electronic circuit from the battery to the circuit board, commanding the Linear Actuator to move. The Linear Actuator is connected to the Trigger Actuator resting in the vicinity of the trigger. The Trigger Actuator starts one cycle by making contact with the trigger, depressing it, causing the firearm to discharge as designed when the trigger is pressed. After the actuator travels a distance in one direction, it is withdrawn, releasing pressure on the trigger, resetting the trigger and ends the cycle. It is now ready to complete another cycle upon user input.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 21, 2018Publication date: February 27, 2020Inventor: Benjamin Justin Hayward
