Patent number: 11520557Abstract: An assortment of Cognitive Load Reduction (CLR) systems is disclosed. The systems are worn by a user, rather than appearing on displays in front of the user. This arrangement allows the systems to be movable and less confining. This in turn results in the wearer employing the CLR systems in a wider variety of environments than earlier mechanisms.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2021Date of Patent: December 6, 2022Assignee: Advanced Cognitive ConceptsInventor: Andy Bevilacqua

Publication number: 20220107425Abstract: A variety of methods and devices for a low-probability of intercept, low probability of denial (LPI/LPD) method of providing RF signals in denied spaces are disclosed. A phased array antenna converts an omnidirectional communication system into a highly directional system. This factor coupled with the precise timing between the transmit and receive sets, establishes a precise distance measurement between the two sets. Using three or more transceivers enables the composition of an ad hoc network of nodes that can be used to establish an available mesh of position and timing that can be accessed by operators within the radio boundaries of the mesh. Portable transceivers reestablish position, navigation and timing (PNT), thereby forming an ad-hoc network. Where the ad-hoc network PNT mesh can intersect with a GPS signal that is outside of the denied environment, the ad-hoc network mesh can detect the GPS position and timing.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 2, 2020Publication date: April 7, 2022Applicant: Bevilacqua Research Corporation, IncInventors: James J. Hornsby, Andy Bevilacqua

Patent number: 11238238Abstract: A system and method for lowering probability that low data rates, high bit error rates, and susceptibility to signal degradation in communication environments during storms, solar activity, and adversarial activity is disclosed. The system and method affect communications by minimizing the amount of data/information that needs to be transmitted, partly by creating an algorithmic process/method that moves knowledge and not data and information. The system and method is based upon the realization that structured communications often possess a similar level of context that can be exploited to communicate full meaning (knowledge), even when only a small fraction of the message is transmitted to the receiver. Reducing the number of bytes transmitted significantly reduces the probability that a transmission will be affected by either naturally occurring or human supplied factors present in modern communication environments.Type: GrantFiled: March 18, 2020Date of Patent: February 1, 2022Assignee: Bevilacqua Research CorpInventors: Andy Bevilacqua, Roy Brown, Glenn Hembree

Patent number: 10564422Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to altering the cognitive load in an individual to affect the information and task processing of that individual. Specifically introducing movement in the peripheral visual field of the individual reduces the cognitive load, thereby allowing the user to be more efficient at the primary task or information processing. Included is a system comprising a support that is shaped to be positioned in front of a user and in the field of vision of the user. A central display screen is attached to the support and positioned proximate the central vision of the user. A computer readable memory medium is accessible by a processor and to instruct the central display screen to display both repetitive, non-biological movement and either information or an operating task on the central display screen.Type: GrantFiled: February 21, 2019Date of Patent: February 18, 2020Inventor: Andy Bevilacqua
