Patent number: 12242020Abstract: Embodiments are directed towards a safety system that can be used with a high-flux power beam, such as in wireless power transmission. The system includes a transmitter that generates and transmits a power beam and a receiver that receives the power beam. A plurality of sensors is configured to independently detect if an object is near, impeding, or about to impede (i.e., impinging) the power beam. Each of the plurality of sensors is configured to detect the object at different distances between the transmitter and the receiver. A controller triggers the transmitter to stop generating the power beam when any one or more of the plurality of sensors detects the object or a combination of the plurality of sensors detects the object. The controller triggers the transmitter to re-generate and transmit the power beam when each of the plurality of sensors fails to detect the object.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2021Date of Patent: March 4, 2025Assignee: Laser Motive, Inc.Inventors: Jordin T. Kare, Thomas J. Nugent, Jr., David Bashford, Carsten Erickson, Thomas W. Bashford

Patent number: 12055675Abstract: A power beaming system includes a power beam transmitter arranged to transmit the power beam, and a power beam receiver arranged to receive the power beam from the power beam transmitter. A power beam transmission source is arranged to generate a laser light beam for transmission by the power beam transmitter from a first location toward a remote second location. A beam-shaping element shapes the laser light beam, at least one diffusion element uniformly distributes light of the shaped laser light beam, and a projection element illuminates a power beam receiving element of predetermined shape with the shaped laser light beam. At the power beam receiver, a diffusion surface diffuses a portion the power beam specularly reflected from the power beam receiver.Type: GrantFiled: May 8, 2023Date of Patent: August 6, 2024Assignee: Laser Motive, Inc.Inventors: Jordin T. Kare, Thomas J. Nugent, Jr., David Bashford

Patent number: 10281953Abstract: The disclosure discloses a wearable computing device (WCD) that would selectively and automatically activate a transceiver of the WCD for data transmission based on sensor data obtained from a sensor module of the WCD. In some example, the sensor module may convert the physical movements of the WCD into sensor data. Then, a processor module of the WCD compares the sensor data to a predetermined pattern pre-stored in the memory. If the sensor data matches the predetermined pattern, the processor module activates the transceiver to receive/transmit data packets. If the sensor data does not match the predetermined pattern, the process goes back to the beginning, where the processor module monitors the movement of the WCD through the sensors.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2017Date of Patent: May 7, 2019Assignee: Motiv Inc.Inventors: Curt C. von Badinski, Peter Miles Twiss, Daniel Jeffrey Post, Anthony Ambuehl, Michael J. Strasser, Eric Strasser
