  • Patent number: 10782755
    Abstract: The present invention is an apparatus and method for provisioning a compact power filter connection to a well-grounded connector in such a way as to include a capacitive and inductive circuit connection, extremely near the connector and filter, such that EMC compatibility is created in a space roughly 30% of traditional mechanisms and design approach to satisfy the aforementioned needs, provide the previously stated objects, include the above-listed features, and achieve the already articulated advantages. The present invention is carried out in a “post-internal ferrite bead re-radiation noise-less” manner, in a sense that ability to have noise introduced back onto a post-ferrite bead line has been greatly reduced.

  • Patent number: 4839838
    Abstract: A three-dimensional spatial input apparatus including a series of coplanar, single axis accelerometers configured to provide information on translation along and rotation around a set of orthogonal axes. A preprocessing computer determines the acceleration values output by the accelerometers and converts these values into a series of acceleration, velocity and position values in relation to the axis system, with corrections based on a change in the influence of gravity on the device as it rotates. The values are transmitted to an object control computer which takes appropriate action, including moving a cursor, rotating a displayed object, and controlling remote devices. The spatial input apparatus can have an attached pointer and be used as a three-dimensional digitizer in conjunction with the object control computer.
