Patent number: 12288118Abstract: A method for manufacturing an antenna for an RFID device includes providing a conductive material on a substrate and performing a first cutting process on the conductive material to define an initial antenna. Additional cutting processes are performed on the initial antenna to define a final antenna, with the first and any subsequent cutting processes being different. The subsequent cutting processes are capable of more finely defining regions of the antenna, such as in some embodiments when the first cutting process is a die cutting process and a second cutting process is a laser cutting process. While the subsequent cutting processes are capable of more finely defining regions of the antenna than the first cutting process. By combining multiple cutting processes, a final antenna equivalent to one made using only one or more of the subsequent cutting processes may be created at a lower cost.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2020Date of Patent: April 29, 2025Assignee: Avery Dennison Retail Information Services LLCInventors: Ian Forster, Edward McGinniss

Patent number: 12286214Abstract: Described herein are methods and systems to dampen oscillations of a payload coupled to a tether of a winch system arranged on an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). For example, the UAV's control system may dampen the oscillations by causing the UAV to switch to a forward flight mode in which movement of the UAV results in drag on the payload, thereby damping the oscillations. In another example, the control system may cause the UAV to reduce an extent flight stabilization along at least one dimension, thereby resulting in damping of the detected oscillations due to energy dissipation during movement of the UAV along the dimension. In this way, the control system could select and carry out one or more such techniques, and could do so during retraction and/or deployment of the tether.Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2022Date of Patent: April 29, 2025Assignee: Wing Aviation LLCInventors: Andre Prager, Trevor Shannon
