Publication number: 20190218489Abstract: A water filtering system includes providing light deep into a liquid used in applications such as the cultivation of both attached and suspended photosynthetic organisms. The system is configured to inject a stream of bubbles into the liquid and a light source is configured to shines light through the bubbles. The bubbles allow some light to travel deep into the liquid along the length of the bubble stream and scatter/deflect some light out of the bubble stream and into the surrounding liquid including screens for growing algae.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 11, 2018Publication date: July 18, 2019Inventor: Binh Kien THAI

Patent number: 10075507Abstract: The disclosure relates to a portable computing device configured to selectably switch between a wired zero client mode in which the portable computing device operates as a terminal for a host computer via a wired communication channel, a wireless zero client mode in which the portable computing device operates as a terminal for the host computer via a wireless communication channel, and a local mode in which the portable computing device operates independently from the host computer. The portable computing device may include one or more zero client processors that facilitate operation in the wired or wireless zero client mode and one or more local control processors that facilitate operation in the local mode. The portable computing device may include input devices used to receive inputs for the host computer during the wireless or wired zero client modes or for the local control processors during the local mode.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2016Date of Patent: September 11, 2018Assignee: NCS Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Michael Dewayne Adams, An Van Nguyen, Lakshmi Santosh, Dinh Van Nguyen, Brian James Gentry, Binh Kien Thai, Paul Richard Gardner, Jonathan Douglas Petty

Publication number: 20180029908Abstract: A water filtering system is provided for growing algae that filters the water. The system may include a container having a cylindrical inner surface and an opening at one end of the container. A clear central core including a cavity may be disposed inside the container and a light source may be disposed inside the cavity of the clear central core. A screen mesh may be disposed inside the container such that a surface of the screen mesh is parallel to the cylindrical inner surface of the container. The system may include an inlet configured to route water into the container and an outlet configured to route water from the container. A lid may cover the opening of the container.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 26, 2016Publication date: February 1, 2018Inventors: Binh Kien THAI, Thuyet Huu NGUYEN

Patent number: 9335799Abstract: The adaptive computing system described herein may generally include a modular control, switching, and power supply architecture. In particular, the adaptive computing system may provide a platform supporting multiple independent desktop computer modules that occupy less physical space than a standalone commercial computer, provide performance density comparable to current server solutions, and address concerns relating to stability, safety, productivity, performance, assembly, service, and other factors important to diverse desktop computer user communities. Moreover, mechanical, electrical, and functional components associated with the adaptive computing system may have various certifications or otherwise be relied upon to demonstrate compliance with criteria in regulatory, environmental, consumer safety, and other contexts.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2013Date of Patent: May 10, 2016Assignee: NCS TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: An Van Nguyen, M. Dewayne Adams, Nesdon Alexandre' Harris, Dinh Van Nguyen, Binh Kien Thai
