Patent number: 9806548Abstract: A power supply system includes data circuitry as well as power circuitry to generate DC power for use by a portable electronic device having a rechargeable battery. The DC power, ground and two signaling lines are provided in a power supply connector which detachably mates with an electronic device power input port. In response to a first signal from the electronic device transmitted over one of the signaling lines, the data circuitry provides an analog signal to the electronic device over the other signaling line. The electronic device determines a parameter level, such as a current level, of the analog signal, and based on the determined parameter level controls charging of its battery.Type: GrantFiled: August 5, 2016Date of Patent: October 31, 2017Assignee: COMARCO WIRELESS TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventor: Thomas W.

Patent number: 9747802Abstract: Described are methods and systems for collision avoidance in an underground mine environment that use one or more of a computer vision component, an asset tracking system, and a motion detection component for the purpose of determining and responding to potential collision threats. Imaging is captured and processed in real time, so that assets of interest can be identified and used in evaluating potential for collision with other assets. Location data from an asset tracking system is likewise evaluated and used to determine proximity of assets in relation to the host. A final input is provided by the motion detection component that intelligently determines movement patterns and direction of travel. Once these components' inputs are collectively evaluated, a proximity or a threat value is generated which determine an audible or visual signal or action to prevent collision and increase safety in unfavorable conditions.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2014Date of Patent: August 29, 2017Assignee: Innovative Wireless Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Matthew A. Fisher, Paul R. Carpenter, James E. Silverstrim
