Publication number: 20250356603Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology provide extended reality display devices that can be used on and/or off of a moving platform. Systems and methods are disclosed for separating out the motion of the moving platform from other motions of the device so that virtual content can be displayed without erroneous motions caused by the motion of the moving platform. The subject technology can provide extended reality settings on any suitable moving platform such as in a car, a watercraft, an aircraft, a train, or any other vehicle.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 1, 2025Publication date: November 20, 2025Inventors: Brian C. CLARK, Krishna RAMAMURTHI, Ivan KOLESOV, Ralf HABEL

Patent number: 12347348Abstract: The subject technology provides structured-shutdown-mode versions of a video view of a physical setting of an electronic device. An electronic device may provide, at a first power consumption rate, a video view of a portion of the physical setting, the portion being physically blocked from being directly viewed by a user of the device, by the electronic device itself. Structured-shutdown-mode versions of a video view may be provided, at a second power consumption rate lower than the first power consumption rate, to a display of an electronic device when the device determines that it is in a low power or failure state. In this way, the electronic device can reduce the functionality and power consumption of the display in a structured manner, to continue to provide a version of the video view to the user in the low power or failure mode state.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2021Date of Patent: July 1, 2025Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventor: Brian C. Clark

Patent number: 6505202Abstract: A system for evaluating information. The system defines a set of properties and one or more values for each property and then assigns property-value combinations to items of information and to profiles. Information is then evaluated by determining how the property-value combinations assigned to the items of information match those assigned to a profile. Assignments of property-value combinations have ratings and validities associated with them. In assignments to information items, the rating represents the relevance of the information item to the property-value pair; in assignments to profiles, it represents the relevance of the property-value pair to the profile. The validity for an assignment indicates a judgment concerning the strength of the assignment. The system further defines relationships between property-value combinations. When a property-value combination in a relationship is assigned, so are the related property-value combinations.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 1999Date of Patent: January 7, 2003Inventors: Linda Allan Mosquera, Duane Steward, Brian C. Clark, Paul Stansbury

Publication number: 20020174510Abstract: 18A powered floor scrubbing, buffing machine is described. This machine accommodates a first and second scrubbing pad, one or more scrubbing pads or brushes, which can be either disc or rotary brushes, followed by a squeegee having vacuum capability, which in turn is followed by a high-speed buffer pad. This invention provides for simultaneous scrubbing and buffing of floor surfaces. It is powered with an internal engine and has a user control panel for the control/driving of the machine.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 25, 2001Publication date: November 28, 2002Inventors: David K. Thatcher, Colby M. Haas, Brian C. Clark

Patent number: 5720360Abstract: An hydraulic drive system for driving a plurality of wheels of a vehicle. The drive system comprises an hydraulic fluid source, at least two motors for driving the vehicle wheels, a pump connected between the fluid source and the motors for drawing hydraulic fluid from the source and forcing the fluid to the motors, at least two flow restrictions, and at least two load-reaction compensators. Each of the motors drives at least one of the wheels at varying speeds in response to varying rates of fluid flow supplied to the motor from the fluid source. Each of the flow restrictions is positioned between the pump and at least one of the motors. Each restriction varies the rate of fluid flow to at least one of the motors in response to changes in fluid pressure upstream from the restriction. Each of the compensators is connected between the pump and at least one of the restrictions.Type: GrantFiled: January 26, 1996Date of Patent: February 24, 1998Assignee: Figgie International Inc.Inventors: Brian C. Clark, Colin R. Hart

Patent number: 4696361Abstract: An improved cooling system for a skid steer loader includes a swing-up radiator and oil cooler assembly (60) incorporating a pair of radiators (64, 88) supported for independent pivotal movement between raised and lowered positions to facilitate access to the radiators, as well as access to the engine and associated components for service, maintenance and the like. The lowermost radiator (64) serves as the hydraulic oil cooler, and is supported in a frame (62) pivotal about a generally longitudinal axis (78). The uppermost radiator (88) serves as the engine cooler and is mounted in another shelf (86) pivotal about a second longitudinal axis (104). A latch assembly (106, 108, 110, 112 and 114) is provided for releasably securing the entire radiator and oil cooler assembly (60) in a lowered position and at least the upper radiator (88) in a raised position.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 1986Date of Patent: September 29, 1987Assignee: Owatonna Manufacturing CompanyInventors: Brian C. Clark, Michael D. Jines

Patent number: 4480708Abstract: The specification discloses a brake system (84) which is particularly adapted for vehicles such as skid steer loaders in which the wheels on each side of the vehicle are driven independently by separate transmissions. The brake system (84) includes a caliper assembly (86) overlying brake discs (66) which are mounted for rotation about a common axis but are individually connected to the transmissions. The brake pucks (98) are actuated by a manual lever (132) connected to a rotatable cam (112) associated with an axial plunger (120). The cam (112) is rotatable about an axis parallel to the bore (96) in the caliper assembly (86) containing the brake pucks (98) and plunger (120), to provide a wider range of motion in a more compact space.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 1982Date of Patent: November 6, 1984Assignee: Owatonna Manufacturing Company, Inc.Inventors: Jon A. Macht, Brian C. Clark

Patent number: 4265144Abstract: A hydraulic detent release for a power shift transmission selector valve which releases the detent with decay of fluid pressure in the valve. The hydraulic detent releases in response to pressure decay in an inching valve which causes the selector valve to return to the low speed position when the inching valve is operated.Type: GrantFiled: December 26, 1978Date of Patent: May 5, 1981Assignee: Allis-Chalmers CorporationInventor: Brian C. Clark
