Patent number: 11931473Abstract: A handheld light assembly for eradicating pathogens includes a housing. A processor and a lamp are disposed inside the housing. The lamp irradiates surfaces with disinfecting ultraviolet light having a peak wavelength of 222 nm filtered to restrict illumination to between 200 nm and 230 nm within an irradiation zone. A distance measuring system includes a secondary light source generating secondary light and a photodetector for measuring distance of the secondary light to a surface being irradiated by the lamp light being reflected from the surface to the photodetector. The secondary light source is offset at an angle from the lamp thereby projecting the light beam to a central area of the irradiation zone generated by the lamp. The photodetector signals the processor to calculate a vertical distance between the lamp and the central area of the irradiation zone on the surface being irradiated from an angular projection of the secondary light.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2021Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: FREESTYLE PARTNERS LLCInventors: Jennifer K Rosen, Gregory D. DeGrazia, Benjamin X. Feeney, Josiah LaColla, Kevin Martin, Prasanna Natarajan, Joseph M. Schmondiuk, III, David Thimm

Publication number: 20230227155Abstract: A combination two vehicle system is provided that includes a land-based vehicle configured for traversal over ground and an aerial vehicle configured for travel through air, where the aerial vehicle is configured to detachably couple with the land-based vehicle. The aerial vehicle includes stabilizing legs to provide stability for take-off or landing. A method of operating the vehicle system includes steps of: providing the land-based and the aerial vehicle having the stabilizing legs, and aerially transporting the vehicle system including the land-based vehicle and the aerial vehicle, where the stabilizing legs provide stability for take-off or landing. In addition, the land-based vehicle may transport a removable cargo pod, which the aerial vehicle may independently retrieve from the land-based vehicle.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 31, 2021Publication date: July 20, 2023Inventors: Ernestine Fu, Grey Parker, Prasanna Natarajan, Matt Korich, Jacob Viau, David Wilson, John Suh, David Byron, Mark Lister
