Patent number: 11914415Abstract: An optical neural network is constructed based on photonic integrated circuits to perform neuromorphic computing. In the optical neural network, matrix multiplication is implemented using one or more optical interference units, which can apply an arbitrary weighting matrix multiplication to an array of input optical signals. Nonlinear activation is realized by an optical nonlinearity unit, which can be based on nonlinear optical effects, such as saturable absorption. These calculations are implemented optically, thereby resulting in high calculation speeds and low power consumption in the optical neural network.Type: GrantFiled: May 4, 2022Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: Massachusetts Institute of TechnologyInventors: Jacques Johannes Carolan, Mihika Prabhu, Scott A. Skirlo, Yichen Shen, Marin Soljacic, Dirk Englund, Nicholas C. Harris

Patent number: 7264561Abstract: A tennis net support stick is retained by a housing that is present on a tennis net support post or stile. A reel may be connected to the tennis net support stick by means of a line, cable, wire or similar apparatus to a pole of precise length, called a support stick, which supports a tennis net at a required distance from the court lines during a singles tennis match. The line, cable, wire or similar apparatus provides a pre-determined distance of the support stick from the tennis net support post, whereas the support stick length ensures a regulation height of the net.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2006Date of Patent: September 4, 2007Inventors: Ed Scarpa, III, Nicholas Johannes

Publication number: 20040198509Abstract: A rink layout and rules of play for speed hockey. The rink defines a substantially square play area, preferably with chamfered corners. A preferred size is approximately eight five feet (26 meters) by one hundred feet (30 meters). Goal creases define an approximately twelve and one half foot (4 meter) radius, and red zones define an approximately thirty two and one half feet (10 meters) in radius. Goals are recessed into dasher boards, and referee positions may be defined above each goal. Each team preferably comprises three players and a goal keeper in play, and an additional three players and one goal keeper in reserve. A team receives one point for goals scored inside the red zone, and two points for goals scored from outside the red zone. Over Time (OT) preferably comprises a first OT period with full teams, a second OT period with a first reduction, and a third OT period with one player for each team.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 2, 2003Publication date: October 7, 2004Inventors: Alex R. Bellehumeur, Nicholas Johannes

Patent number: 6056873Abstract: The installation disclosed comprises a body of water, a pump, a filter and pipes connecting the body of water, pump and filter. Additional pipes lead from the pipe to the return pipe and to waste. Solenoid operated valves are provided in the pipes so that flow through these pipes can be permitted or prevented depending on whether the valves are open or closed. A pressure sensor detects pressure at the inlet of the filter. A programmable controller controls operation of the valves all of which can be operated independently of the others. The body of water will normally be a swimming pool but could be a tank in which aquatic creatures are grown.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 1998Date of Patent: May 2, 2000Inventors: Quentin John Seaton Hartley, Nicholas Johannes Grobler Smit

Patent number: 6013371Abstract: Producing of near net shape carbon (optionally carbon--carbon composite) pistons and other artifacts by sintering (with or without carbon fibers, preferably pitch-based carbon fibers and most preferably blends of vapor grown carbon fibers(VGCF)) homogeneous powders derived from petroleum pitch. The powders preferably exhibit properties equal to or exceeding those of POCO AXF-5Q. Preferred specific technical steps are substantially as follows:1. Individually prepare, by evaporation, heat treating and/or oxidizing of carbon-containing pitches, followed by oxidizing, comminuting and/or spray drying, to produce sinterable pitch powders (and optionally create uniform dryblends of pitch powder with various fractions of vapor-grown or other carbon fiber.)2. Produce near net shape carbon--carbon artifacts, such as cup shapes which are convertible to internal-combustion (i-c) pistons with minimal machining, by pressing or injecting into molds, then sintering and carbonizing.
