Publication number: 20230354788Abstract: An aquarium system includes a tank, a motion sensor, and a light source. The motion sensor is adapted to sense motion within a predetermined distance from the tank. The light source has a controllable intensity projecting light into the tank. The intensity varies responsive to motion sensed by the motion sensor. When the motion sensor senses movement, the light is on at 100% intensity. After some period of no-motion, such as about 60 seconds, the lighting slowly dims to around 20% of full brightness. When it senses movement again, the lighting slowly ramps up to 100% intensity.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 13, 2023Publication date: November 9, 2023Inventors: Stanley James Owens, Joseph Michael Flora, Chad William Robbins

Patent number: 11772987Abstract: A multi-functional slurry processing system (“VARCOR”) and associated methods is disclosed. The present examples provide a multi-functional slurry processing system incorporating systems and methods for separating liquid and solid components in slurries. In particular the systems and methods described herein produce clean water, dried solids, and potential concentration of desirable constituents with a boiling point lower than water. At least one example of the multi-functional slurry processing system provides a self-contained processing facility configured to efficiently convert high water-content slurries into its constituent solid and liquid fractions and subsequently generating and collecting clean water and concentrating desirable constituents with a boiling point lower than water.Type: GrantFiled: October 12, 2020Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: Sedron Technologies, LLCInventors: Peter William Janicki, Sara Amber Van Tassel, John Edward Weller, Stanley James Janicki, Warren Lewis Heartwood, Keith Boyd Fackler, II, Alex James Gross, Tyler Everett Hamke, Austin George Law, Eric Christopher McBride, Ann Kate Nowinski, Liam Joseph Potocsnak, James O'Keefe Armstrong

Publication number: 20220115872Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamic management of energy usage in local grids are provided. An example method is performed by a load distribution controller coupled to a power source and an energy storage device configured to accumulate power. The method includes acquiring reference levels of using energy of the power source at time slots within a time period and cost values corresponding to the reference levels, dynamically determining, based on the reference levels and the cost values, a schedule indicating charge levels of the energy storage device at the time slots within the time period, and configuring the energy storage device to charge or discharge the power the power according to the schedule. The reference levels are obtained using the Viterbi algorithm based on costs of the energy of power source at past times slots of a past time period and rates of charging and discharging the energy storage device.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 5, 2021Publication date: April 14, 2022Inventors: Richard Thomas Jones, Christopher Stanley James Tumpach, Md.

Publication number: 20200291630Abstract: A stormwater channel includes a central channel bed flanked by left and right walls, with riparian planters and riparian reservoirs extending longitudinally through the channel. Water flows through the planters and reservoirs. Each planter contains plant-anchoring material and biochar. Riparian plant seeds or seedlings are planted in the planters and watered to form a riparian ecosystem. The stormwater channel also includes a fish migration channel adjacent to the riparian planters and reservoirs, enabling anadromous fish to swim upstream through the channel. Fish can be detected, trapped, and relocated past barriers using a drone.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 13, 2020Publication date: September 17, 2020Inventor: Stanley James Raddon

Patent number: 10572553Abstract: Systems and methods are provided that allow client programs using APIs for accessing local DB2 databases to access DB2 systems on remote logical partitions and remote zSeries mainframes rather than from a local DB2 system. For example, a method may include intercepting a DB2 request using a documented API for accessing local DB2 databases from a client program executing on a source mainframe system. The method may also include selecting a destination mainframe system and sending a buffer including information from the request from the source mainframe system to the destination mainframe system and establishing, at the destination mainframe system, a DB2 connection with the DB2 system from the request. The method may further include receiving a response from the DB2 system, sending a buffer having information from the response from the destination mainframe system to the source mainframe system, and providing the information to the client program.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2017Date of Patent: February 25, 2020Assignee: BMC Software, Inc.Inventors: Stanley James Dee, Anthony Louis Lubrano, Stephen Ray Cole

Publication number: 20180336412Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to computer vision robot control. As an example, a user device may use one or more cameras to process received visual data and generate control instructions for a robot. In some examples, a camera may be part of the user device, remote from the user device, part of the robot, or any combination thereof. Control instructions may be based on facial recognition and/or object recognition, among other computer vision techniques. As a result, the user may be able to more directly interact with the robot and/or control the robot in ways that were not previously available using simple user input methods.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 17, 2018Publication date: November 22, 2018Applicant: SPHERO, INC.Inventor: Stanley James
