Publication number: 20240033612Abstract: A handheld electronic game includes a housing assembly; resilient domes protruding from the housing assembly; and a programmable, interactive system and at least one light emitting diode mounted within the housing, electrically connected to the programmable, interactive system. The housing assembly has a front housing portion and a rear housing portion. Each of the domes has a first surface and a second surface. The domes can transition from a first position where the first surface is convex to a second position where the second surface is convex. The programmable, interactive system includes a microprocessor and a sensor. The sensor is electrically connected to the microprocessor and senses when one or more of the domes transitions from the first position to the second position or from the second position to the first position. The domes can be returned to their first position with a reset mechanism or manually.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 28, 2023Publication date: February 1, 2024Inventors: Dan Klitsner, Gary Levenberg, Brian Clemens

Publication number: 20230253896Abstract: Numerous patents have been granted for methods to extract useful zero-point energy (ZPE). However, these methods utilize the Casimir force, which is orders of magnitude too small to power an electrical grid. The method and apparatus described here uses counter-rotating mercury based plasmas pulsed with a high frequency, high voltage discharge to create a coherence with the zero-point field, allowing for unlimited extraction of ZPE, which may ultimately replace polluting fossil fuel derived energy. Mainstream physics models gravity as a curvature of space (general relativity), but there are profound problems with this model. An alternative model of gravity advanced by some physicists models gravity (and inertia) as an induced effect resulting from the interaction of ZPE with subatomic charge. By creating a coherence with the zero-point field, this method causes an interference with this interaction, allowing gravity and inertia to be engineered or nullified, representing a breakthrough in propulsion.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 21, 2023Publication date: August 10, 2023Inventor: David Brian Clemens

Publication number: 20170087480Abstract: Disclosed are toy systems for creating and fixing an array of polygon shaped plastic beads together to form a design. The toy systems can include an upper tray, a lower tray, a plurality of beads, and a template. The plurality of beads can engage pins on the surface of the lower tray. Each of the beads can be configured to fuse or adhere to adjacent beads upon drying after the application of liquid to the plurality of beads engaged to the lower tray, forming a fixed array of beads. The upper tray can be configured to engage the pins of the lower tray between the lower tray and the plurality of beads. The upper tray can be used to remove a fixed or loose array of beads from the lower tray. The template can provide a design for the plurality of beads.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 8, 2016Publication date: March 30, 2017Inventors: Joost Sebastiaan Poulus, Nicholas St Clair Max Heine, Michael Boye Pagh, Brian Clemens

Publication number: 20150378230Abstract: A device and method of pre-attaching assemblies to glazing can provide for accurate fit or registration after installation. A solar panel provides power to an insulated glass unit. Mounting brackets are secured to the insulated glass unit. A plate adjustably attaches to the mounting brackets. After positioning the plate on the mounting brackets a solar panel is attached to the plate and the insulated glass unit is installed in a frame. The plate is adapted to be moved toward the frame such that the solar panel is flush to the frame after moving the plate. Trim pieces can then be installed over the portions of the plate not covered by the solar panel.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 18, 2015Publication date: December 31, 2015Inventors: Kyle Gudmunson, Micah Somers, Brian Clemens
