Patent number: 9814303Abstract: A cosmetic brush cleaning pad for efficiently maintaining the cleanliness of makeup brushes while controlling microbial growth in the fiber bundle. The cosmetic brush cleaning pad generally includes a base housing and an upper platform adapted to be removably secured over the base housing. A cleaning member which is generally flexible woven fabric may be removably wrapped around the upper platform prior to it being secured to the base housing. The base housing may include an optional lid which is hingedly secured thereto and includes an access opening for allowing access to the cleaning member when the lid is closed. By assembling the present invention and dragging a cosmetic brush thereacross, the cleaning brush may be cleaned of cosmetics for further use.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2014Date of Patent: November 14, 2017Assignee: Artis LLCInventor: Matthew Waitesmith

Patent number: 7874957Abstract: An integrated sensor apparatus capable of detecting exercise equipment parameters such as power output and cadence is designed so as to be easily retrofittable to existing equipment. To the extent that a particular sensor uses friction measurement, it can supplant an existing friction causing device on the equipment. Additionally, the sensor can communicate, wirelessly if desired, with a processing device. The processing device is capable of receiving and processing a plurality of sensor signals. The processing device can then output processed signals to a display, so that a plurality of people joining in a group exercise or competition can easily track their relative performance in real-time.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2007Date of Patent: January 25, 2011Assignee: Artis, LLCInventors: Elisa Hurwitz, Keith W. Brendley

Publication number: 20100296703Abstract: Horizontal velocity profile sensing techniques, methods and systems may be used to detect and classify moving targets, including but not limited to a person, an animal, or a vehicle, or any other object that lends itself to characterization. Such techniques, methods and systems may be implemented with an autonomous stand-alone device, for example, as an unattended ground sensor, or it may constitute part of a sensor system. An exemplary illustrative non-limiting implementation allows the device to be fixed to a location, while detecting and classifying moving targets. In another exemplary illustrative non-limiting implementation, the device may be placed on a moving or rotating platform and used to detect stationary objects.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 20, 2010Publication date: November 25, 2010Applicant: ARTIS LLCInventor: Jed Marti

Patent number: 7717841Abstract: A motion-coupled visual environment prevents, reduces and/or treats motion sickness by sensing inertial motion and providing a corresponding evocative image for a subject to view. Inertial sensors may include accelerometers, gyroscopes or a variety of other different sensor types. A cross-coupling algorithm may be used to cross couple different sensed inertial motions. A variety of mapping schemes may be used to map sensed inertial motion to corresponding motion within the evocative scene displayed on the display. Driver-centric, passenger-centric and simulation surround systems are possible. Applications include reducing motion sickness on passenger vehicles such as airplanes, trains and cars; on military vehicles such as ships, airplanes, helicopters and the like; and reducing “cybersickness” in the context of simulations on moving platforms.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2006Date of Patent: May 18, 2010Assignee: Artis LLCInventors: Keith W. Brendley, Jed Marti

Patent number: 7684020Abstract: A relatively low-cost sensor can accurately detect, identify and track rapidly moving objects such as missiles, rocket propelled grenades (RPGs), mortars, explosive-driven fragments, bullets, shells, sports projectiles (baseballs, golf balls, tennis balls, arrows, etc.), and other types of objects. Systems that would incorporate such a sensor include military devices such as Active Protection System (APS), warning sensor systems, counter-fire systems; commercial devices such as an accurate baseball strike zone monitor, tennis ball line monitors, and arrow speed and flight characteristics monitors. The optical sensing system detects, identifies and tracks rapidly moving objects. The system is designed to be low-cost, rugged, highly reliable, and have a low False Alarm Rate (FAR). The system can accurately record signals from rapidly moving targets and then process this information with sufficient time to send a firing signal or take other action as appropriate.Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 2006Date of Patent: March 23, 2010Assignee: Artis, LLCInventors: Jed Marti, Keith Brendley

Patent number: 7382267Abstract: “Smartmat” (Smartmat Area Activity Monitor and Personnel Identification System) monitors and identifies people, animals and other objects that pass through a control volume. Among other attributes, the exemplary system implementation can count, classify and identify objects, such as pedestrians, animals, bicycles, wheelchairs, vehicles, rollerbladers and other objects, either singly or in groups. Exemplary Smartmat implementations differentiate objects based on weight, footprint and floor/wall pressure patterns such as footfall patterns of pedestrians and other patterns. The system may be applied to security monitoring, physical activity monitoring, market traffic surveys and other traffic surveys, security checkpoint/gate monitoring, traffic light activation and other device activation such as security cameras, and other monitoring applications. Smartmat may be portable or permanently installed.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2005Date of Patent: June 3, 2008Assignee: Artis LLCInventors: Keith W. Brendley, Jed Marti, William Virnig
