Patent number: 10608741Abstract: Through-the-Air Link Optical Component is a low Size, Weight, and Power optical communications device that 1) acquires and maintains a broad band communications link between two platforms in line of sight with one another, 2) measures azimuth and elevation angle relative to each platform reference from one TALOC to the communicating TALOC and vice-versa, 3) measures distance between communicating TALOC units, and 4) sees through atmospheric disturbances such as clouds and fog. These remarkable functions open the door to several important derivative capabilities, such as determining absolute positions of all platforms in a community and formation of platform community into a phase array antenna.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2018Date of Patent: March 31, 2020Assignee: 4S-SILVERSWORD SOFTWARE AND SERVICES, LLCInventors: William Robert Allen Ziegler, Ronald H.

Patent number: 7484699Abstract: A tubular staff has sections which can be collapsed one into the other down to a very small size. The sections are held together by peripheral clamps snap-tightened by a small lever. There is a ground spike at the bottom of the staff which itself can be removed and stowed within the staff. A firearm cradle can be on top and one end of a small elbowed rod goes either into the top of the staff or into the cradle, if one's there. The rod's other end attaches to a hole in a hunting bow to support it until game arrives. Instead of the elbowed rod, an accessory supporting structure can likewise be set into the staff or cradle. The linkage of the accessory support is a bendable length of ball and socket joints available from certain industrial sources so that the camera angle or telescope can be properly manipulated.Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 2005Date of Patent: February 3, 2009Inventors: Rick Lee Ziegler, Wayne Allen Ziegler
