  • Patent number: 10870482
    Abstract: Selector lever systems of aircraft are provided. The selector lever systems include a selector lever configured to control operation of one or more aircraft control surfaces, the selector lever having a handle configured to enable manual operation of the selector lever, a touch sensor arranged on the handle, and a controller arranged in communication with the touch sensor, the controller configured to at least one of generate a notification when a signal is received from the touch sensor and unlock the selector lever from a locked state.

  • Patent number: 7633518
    Abstract: An object detection portal wherein a video image is obtained of a volume or area being scanned, and location of a threat object is determined and displayed in real time as an indicator overlay on the video image. An individual subject being scanned may be continuously monitored by an operator during an object divesting process, and an operator may view the threat object moving from or remaining with the subject. Object location information is supplied to a video driver to superimpose the overlay on a real time image of a subject. The scanning portal may interact with an exit barrier. The exit barrier may be activated automatically in response to sensing of a threat.
