Publication number: 20200056856Abstract: Shooting sticks having pivotally attached support rests slidably attached to collapsible legs, said support rests providing a stable platform on which a user may aim and/or shoot a firearm or other object requiring at least temporary immobilization. A first channel running along the length of each support rests allows for the passage of a leg. A brake is attached to each support rest, said brake having an aperture through which a leg passes through, the aperture being configured, when the brake has not been depressed, to arrest any sliding movement of the support rest along the length of the leg to which it is attached. When the brake is depressed, the aperture becomes oriented perpendicular to leg which passes through it, allowing the support rests to freely slide up and down the leg. An elastic member provides an upwardly directed force to aid in support rest stabilization and lift assist.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 14, 2019Publication date: February 20, 2020Applicant: Outdoor Gear Solutions Inc.Inventors: Steven C.

Patent number: 10565344Abstract: Disclosed techniques conform standard cells in an integrated circuit design into a valid template pattern using a template-based approach to standard cell design. The template architecture stores valid patterns of circuit elements for the design. A Boolean expression comprising an aggregated set of Boolean assertions can be generated for each different combination of cell shape features and edge locations with the cell design to compute a solution that matches with a valid pattern in one of the templates. If the solution evaluates to a Boolean TRUE result, the cell shape(s) can be modified in accordance with the solution. If not, the granularity can be updated by incrementing an “adjustment neighborhood” value and iterating the computations for shape features and edge locations using the updated values for the analysis until a Boolean TRUE result is found or it is determined there is no solution for the set of expressions.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2018Date of Patent: February 18, 2020Assignee: PDF Solutions, Inc.Inventor: Elizabeth Lagnese

Patent number: 10566936Abstract: Various technologies pertaining to a high-impedance current source are described herein. The current source outputs a substantially constant current by way of a first transistor that draws current from a supply. The current source is configured to feed-back noise from the supply to a feedback resistor at an input of an operational amplifier (op-amp) by way of a second transistor. The feedback resistor and the op-amp are configured such that responsive to receiving the supply noise feedback, the op-amp drives a gate voltage of the first transistor to cause the first transistor to reject the supply noise and cause the output of the current source to remain substantially constant.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 2018Date of Patent: February 18, 2020Assignee: National Technology & Engineering Solutions of Sandia, LLCInventor: Kurt O.

Patent number: 10564285Abstract: Techniques of tracking an object involve a Light Detection And Ranging (LIDAR) system. The LIDAR system can be configured to track an object over a period of time, during which the object is moving. Using the LIDAR system tracking of the object can be performed while eliminating illumination hardware (e.g., video camera hardware). Accordingly, the LIDAR system can be configured to operate in total darkness, into the sun, etc. The LIDAR system can be less susceptible to motion of the object than conventional systems. Accordingly, the full rigid-body motion of the object can be determined in some implementations solely from LIDAR measurements, without, for example, video.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2016Date of Patent: February 18, 2020Assignee: DSCG Solutions, Inc.Inventors: Kendall Belsley, Richard Sebastian
