  • Power generation unit for oceanographic sensor moorings
    Patent number: 10641237
    Abstract: An oceanographic sensor mooring section for use with standard oceanographic moorings comprising: mooring oceanographic equipment, such as floatation devices and sensors; and a subsurface power generation unit connected to the mooring oceanographic equipment, wherein the mooring section has connective swivels at opposing ends thereof for attachment of the mooring section to standard oceanographic moorings, mooring lines, or mooring anchors, to allow the mooring section to independently orient in the direction of current flow. The subsurface power generation unit comprises a battery and power management/tracking electronics and a rim turbine generating unit that harnesses the power of underwater currents to power any sensors and related electronics equipment.

  • Multi-density skin marker
    Patent number: 7602883
    Abstract: A multi-density skin marker for medical imaging exams is provided. The skin marker contains a multi-density imaging body. In one embodiment, a multi-density skin marker includes a marker substrate and a multi-density imaging body supported by the marker substrate. The multi-density imaging body comprises a first portion having a first radiographic density and a second portion having a second radiographic density. The two radiographic densities differ, such that a radiographic image of the multi-density skin marker comprises a plurality of shades.
