  • Patent number: 12669479
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and method for real-time visualization of a material during ultrasonic non-destructive testing. The system includes a graphical user interface (GUI) capable of showing a three-dimensional (3-D) image of a composite laminate constructed of a series of two-dimensional (2-D) cross sections. The GUI is capable of displaying the 3-D image as each additional 2-D cross section is scanned by an ultrasonic testing apparatus in real time or near real time, including probable defect regions that contain a flaw such as a hole, crack, wrinkle, or foreign object within the composite. Furthermore, in one embodiment, the system includes an artificial intelligence capable of highlighting defect areas within the 3-D image in real time or near real time and providing data regarding each defect area, such as the depth, size, and/or type of each defect.

  • Publication number: 20260179518
    Abstract: The present invention includes systems and methods for a multi-primary color system for display. A multi-primary color system increases the number of primary colors available in a color system and color system equipment. Increasing the number of primary colors reduces metameric errors from viewer to viewer. One embodiment of the multi-primary color system includes Red, Green, Blue, Cyan, Yellow, and Magenta primaries. The systems of the present invention maintain compatibility with existing color systems and equipment and provide systems for backwards compatibility with older color systems.

  • Publication number: 20260160740
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a thin layer chromatography (TLC) frame for allowing those with visual impairment to perform TLC. The TLC frame provides a structure that includes walls and stops to guide entry of a TLC plate for processing, asymmetrical guiding cones to funnel glass capillaries to correct positions, a solvent entry slit to guide solvent delivery for processing the TLC plate, and a tactile ruler for measuring the length of the reaction. Once complete, the TLC plate can be removed, the TLC frame cleaned if required, and another TLC plate inserted to perform the technique again. The invention will allow a brand-new field of researchers to perform experiments and contribute their time and effort.

  • Patent number: 12618805
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and method for real-time visualization of a material during ultrasonic non-destructive testing. The system is capable of producing A-scans, B-scans, and C-scans of the test object and automatically highlighting potential foreign objects within the test object based on the scan data. The system includes a graphical user interface (GUI) capable of displaying a three-dimensional (3-D) image of a composite laminate constructed of a series of two-dimensional (2-D) cross sections. In one embodiment, the system includes an artificial intelligence module capable of highlighting foreign objects in order to provide size data, shape data, and/or depth data of the foreign object.

  • Publication number: 20260103864
    Abstract: The disclosure provides a method and device for supporting the vertical and lateral loads on expedient ground surfaces. The disclosure provides a screw-type ground anchor with an external hollow stiffening cage to increase the ground anchor's lateral load bearing capacity and an anchor screw to provide vertical load bearing capacity without compromising its ease of installation. The anchor screw installs the stiffening cage concurrently while being installed by pressing down the stiffening cage while the anchor screw is rotated into the ground. By combining the stiffening cage with the anchor screw, rapid installation can be achieved while retaining lateral and vertical load bearing capacity.

  • Publication number: 20260087606
    Abstract: Systems and methods for displaying super saturated color. Image data for display on a display or viewing device with a potential white luminance in a standard system with a maximum luminance is processed such that colors near the white point are reduced to a limited luminance. As the chroma of the displayed color is increased, a luminance attenuation is decreased. The scaling of the reduction is operable to be a linear function, a non-linear function, or any other function.
