  • Patent number: 12252988
    Abstract: A system for excavating a rock face using microwaves. The system may include a microwave generator, an articulable robotic arm with a plurality of rotatably connected rigid waveguide segments, an applicator attached to a distal end of the robotic arm, and a robotic control system. The system produces microwaves with the microwave generator and moves the robotic arm such that the applicator moves along the rock face as the microwaves exit the applicator to precondition the rock face for excavation. Various patterns of microwave treatment, and controls based on sensor feedback, may be implemented.

  • Patent number: 12163428
    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for a microwave energy applicator. The applicator may define an internal channel having one or more longitudinal ridges inside the channel configured to focus energy. The ridges may be moveable. A reflector may be located near an exit of the applicator. In some embodiments, the applicator may define a channel having a decrease in cross-sectional area with a dielectric filler therein, acting to transition from a lower to a higher permittivity material. The various embodiments of the applicator may be attached to a waveguide, which may be an articulable robotic arm having rotatable waveguide segments attached with a microwave generator. The applicator may alter an energy level of microwaves travelling therethrough, for example, to concentrate the energy for application at a rock face in a mine site.

  • Patent number: 11839466
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to a method and system for providing motion biofeedback to a user while the user performs an activity. The biofeedback can occur in real time or after discrete points in time (e.g., after a drive phase or maximum velocity phase). The method includes receiving, from a detection device, first and second motion data corresponding to ground contact force and to force vector angle of the ground contact, respectively; comparing, by a processor, the first motion data to an ideal ground contact force value. The ideal ground contact force value may be an indicator of improved performance. The method includes comparing the second motion data to an ideal force vector angle value. The ideal force vector angle value may be an indicator of improved form. The method includes generating user feedback corresponding to adjustments in ground contact force and force vector angle based on the comparisons.

  • Patent number: 11191454
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to a method for providing motion biofeedback to a user while the user performs an activity, where the biofeedback can occur in real time or after discrete points in time (e.g., after a drive phase or maximum velocity phase). The method includes determining an activity type performed by the user; determining a target value for one or more motion characteristics associated with the activity, wherein the target value is determined by historical collected motion data; receiving motion data related to the activity as the user performs the activity; comparing the motion data to the target value; and transmitting feedback to a feedback device based on the comparison to the target value, wherein the feedback corresponds to a motion adjustment proportional to a deviation of the motion data relative to the target value.
