Patent number: 11894015Abstract: An embedded sensor can include an audio detector, a digital signal processor, a library, and a rules engine. The digital signal processor can be configured to receive signals from the audio detector and to identify the environment in which the embedded sensor is located. The library can store statistical models associated with specific environments, and the digital signal processor can be configured identify specific events based on detected sounds within the particular environment by utilizing the statistical model associated with the particular environment. The DSP can associate a probability of accuracy for the identified audible event. A rules engine can be configured to receive the probability and transmit a report of the detected audible event.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2022Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: CELLULAR SOUTH, INC.Inventors: Brett Rogers, Tommy Naugle, Stephen Bye, Craig Sparks, Arman Kirakosyan

Patent number: 11883054Abstract: Systems and methods are configured to treat a tissue by automatically linearly oscillating an instrument into a target site. A system may include a body having a length and configured to receive a portion of the instrument guide member having an exposed end and/or an instrument. The system may further include an actuator member disposed within the body and configured to linearly oscillate the instrument within the instrument guide member a fixed distance past the exposed end. The systems and methods can increase patient comfort while empowering clinicians by simplifying interventions for musculoskeletal disorders.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2022Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: Emory UniversityInventors: Kenneth R. Mautner, Luka Grujic, Shawna M. Hagen, Brett Rogers, Jonathan Shaw

Publication number: 20200269822Abstract: An air brake controller system for a vehicle trailer associated with a vehicle enables an air brake system of the trailer to be controlled via teleoperation control signals when the vehicle is teleoperated. The air brake controller system comprises a wireless communication device to wirelessly receive brake control signals from the vehicle or directly from a remote teleoperation system. An on-board computer of the air brake controller system processes the brake control signals to generate one or more valve control signals that controls flow of air from a compressed air reservoir into air lines connected to the air brake system of the trailer.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 20, 2020Publication date: August 27, 2020Inventors: Shay Magzimof, David Clyde, Brett Rogers, David Parunakian

Patent number: 4635471Abstract: A hardness tester for pipes comprising a positioning mechanism that presents the pipe to a multiple purpose testing head having a pre-programmed proportional control configuration that independently engages the pipe and determines the pipes relative position to that of the program controlled testing head which contains independent pre-programmed testing heads. The pipe is prepared for testing by cleaning a small test portion of the pipe, engagement of a load cell assembly to the clean pipe portion determining material hardness.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 1986Date of Patent: January 13, 1987Assignee: Energy Development CorporationInventors: D.
