  • Shock sensitive transport stabilizer
    Patent number: 9114907
    Abstract: A transport device for shock sensitive packages maintains an object in a near zero gravity spatial orientation to reduce or eliminate potentially harmful mechanical shock and or vibration to a body, object or device needing protection. This device has active impact cancellation, and is controlled by a computer via attached sensors that return positional data and reduce or eliminate the deceleration rate of the protected body via programmed algorithms, and rapidly compensating linear actuators.
