Abstract: The present invention discloses a system for extracting targets from radar signatures. Disclosed is a unique combination of Wavelet technology and neural networks using fractal geometry techniques that estimates the Fractal Dimension of a target even in the presence of high background noise.
Abstract: This invention discloses a projection apparatus and method for displaying floor, ceiling, and wall coverings. A projector contained within a special projection tower and combined with retroreflective screens provide a means for manufactures to display coverings in a full size perspective even in normal ambient light.
Abstract: This invention discloses an audible target assembly for use in a flying disc golf game. The target assembly consists of an upright post and a tube mounted on the post that when combined produce sound upon impact of the tube by a flying disc. A first plurality of radial support rods around the outer periphery of the tube attaches a plurality of individually suspended members to the tube. The members extend downwardly and connect to a second plurality of radial support rods mounted on the upright post located beneath the tube. The plurality of individually suspended members form a relatively dense mass in the path of a flying disc that transfer the kinetic energy of the disc to the members that in turn come in contact with the tube to produce an audible sound.
Abstract: The present invention is an improved slip sinker that consists of a unique non-concentrical, asymmetrical shape. The shape of the invention is basically conical, with one surface edge cylindrical, and the rest of the shape described by a paraboloid surface. The fishing line tunnel does not form an axial or axis of gravity for the unique shape. This combination of features allows the angler both to more successfully work the fishing tackle through submerged obstructions and reduce or eliminate fishing line twisting.
