Abstract: A method for providing a single user multiple presence implementation may include providing access for a user identified by a user account to a virtual environment hosted by a computer. The method may further include generating multiple avatars for the user account to concurrently coexist and be operative within the virtual environment. The method may further include controlling the multiple avatars at least partly in response to input from the user. The method may further include communicating virtual environment data regarding more than one of the multiple avatars to at least one client operated by the user. An apparatus for performing the method may include a processor coupled to a memory holding encoded instructions for performing operations of the method on a computer configured as a network entity.
Abstract: An integrated data recorder may be positioned within a slot in a tool. The integrated data recorder includes a sensor package that includes one or more drilling dynamics sensors, a processor in data communication with the one or more drilling dynamics sensors, a memory module in data communication with the one or more drilling dynamics sensors, a wireless communications module in data communication with the processor, and an electrical energy source in electrical communication with the memory module, the one or more drilling dynamics sensors, and the processor.
Abstract: A vehicle includes a cabin interior, a dashboard located in the cabin interior, and a desk supported on the dashboard and movable between a stowed position on the dashboard and a deployed position extending outward from the dashboard, the desk comprising a plurality of interconnected panels having arms configured to engage a track to bend around at least a portion of the dashboard, and wherein the desk operably moves along the track when moved between the stowed position and the deployed position.

Abstract: A pedal assembly includes a housing, a spring arm member, a pedal arm, a spring carrier, and a spring guide member. The spring arm member is coupled to the housing. The pedal arm has a hub portion and an opposite pedal pad. The hub portion is pivotally retained in the housing by the spring arm member at the hub portion. The spring carrier is coupled to the pedal arm and to the spring arm member. The spring carrier has at least one spring positioned to provide a first pedal effort force to the pedal arm at a first amount of predetermined travel of the pedal arm. The spring guide member contacts a second at least one spring from the pedal arm when the pedal arm exceeds a second amount of predetermined travel of the pedal pad. The at least one spring provides a second pedal effort force.
Abstract: Systems and apparatus are provided for a high-power microwave sensor using an unmanned aerial vehicle. The unmanned aerial vehicle may include a central body, at least one electric motor, and a barometric pressure feedthrough. The central body may include a first enclosure housing a plurality of low voltage components, a voltage feedthrough connector, and a second enclosure housing a plurality of high voltage components. The low voltage components may include a first signal processing system, a first radio transceiver, a flight controller, a second signal processing system, a second radio transceiver, and a navigation system. The high voltage components may include a plurality of electronic speed controllers, a power distribution module, an input power interface, and a plurality of high power filters. The components of each enclosure may be segregated such that the high voltage components do not create electromagnetic interference with the low voltage components.

Abstract: The Delivery Butler is an apparatus that creates a level surface in a vehicle's passenger seat, for the purpose of transporting items like pizza, take-out food containers, cakes and flower arrangements. The apparatus has adjustable legs and a hinged connection between its base panel and rear panel, which allows the receiving surface to be adjusted to level. The apparatus is belted into a seat, and can include a non-slip receiving surface and a fence structure on the receiving surface. The apparatus does not require any modifications to a passenger seat, and can be dismantled by hand and stored virtually flat.
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for an exhaust demand control system for measuring one or more contaminants at one or more exhaust locations within one or a plurality of exhaust ducts or plenums served by an exhaust fan system. Example systems and methods can include sensing the one or more contaminants within the one or more exhaust duct locations using a multipoint air sampling system having one or more sensors and flow control elements, comparing contaminant concentration measurements from the one or more of said exhaust duct or plenum locations against an action level to create a fan setback signal, and ensuring sensor accuracy and reliability by implementing a sensor protective mode when the contaminant concentration measurements from the one or more exhaust locations exceeds an action level.
Abstract: A glove may include a hand body, the hand body being at least partially elastic, where the hand body defines a hand pocket configured to receive a user's hand, and a wrist body. The glove may also include a hand pad pocket formed in the hand body and configured to removably receive at least one hand pad, where the hand pad pocket is separated from the hand pocket by a separator, as well as a wrist padding pocket formed in the wrist body configured to removably receive a wrist pad. The hand pad pocket may be positioned in an interior of the glove.

Abstract: A composite image heat transfer is disclosed for use on specific merchandising articles, sports jerseys, or other apparel for a specific sport. A scannable mark would be embedded in a heat transfer positioned on a sports jersey, such as a jersey number or a club crest. The scannable mark would be scanned by a user to provide stats, personal information, or other information about the corresponding sports team/club and/or individual athlete. The user can also register the scannable mark and follow the sports team/club and/or athlete on social media. Thus, the composite image heat transfer with embedded scannable mark would link each jersey number with information related to the corresponding player/athlete, and each club crest would be linked to information related to the corresponding club/team. This would enable a strong interaction through social media and other web tools between athletes and/or clubs and fans.
