Abstract: An apparatus (bullet mounted RFID) for the purpose of generating a tracking signal from a deployed bullet. with Plastic carrier assembly that is universal to the modern and primitive bullet configurations currently on the market, Self contained RFID Electronics which consist of RFID Chip, battery, antenna and which are protected by a plastic molded housing, This apparatus does not negatively impact bullet performance or ballistics and this apparatus deploys RFID Technology in the field that will assist in the successful recovery of harvested game.

Abstract: The coupling device of the present invention includes a housing, a first fastening member attached to said housing and coupled to the power line, a second fastening member attached to the housing and coupled to the power line, an inductor providing an impedance to data transmissions between the first fastening member and the second fastening member; a first conductor having a first end electrically coupled to the first fastening member; and a second conductor having a first end electrically coupled to the second fastening member. The second ends of the first conductor and second conductor providing data signals to a connector. In addition, the housing may include a transformer secured therein for coupling power transmissions to the connector.

Abstract: This invention utilizes RFID Technology, plastic injection molded components, a flexible PCB, Micro batteries, active and passive electronic components and antenna wire to form an apparatus (Arrow mounted RFID Carrier) for the purpose of deploying and generating a tracking signal from an arrow mounted RFID Circuit. This device is mounted to the arrow shaft (no special tooling required) and is deployed upon impact with the target. During impact the Carrier assembly opens and separates from the arrow shaft and the antenna wire deploys to a given length, one end of the antenna wire penetrating the target and exiting the opposite side of the target while the trailing end remains exterior to the entry side of the broad head impact surface. Mean while, PCB Mounted components, IE Batteries, saline sensor, RFID Chip, etc, are activated by internal contact with body tissues and begin to emit a low level signal through the antenna wire which is then received by a hand held reader device.

Abstract: The present invention provides an improved process for continuously casting aluminum alloys and improved aluminum alloy compositions. The process includes the steps of continuously annealing the cold rolled strip in an intermediate anneal using an induction heater and/or continuously annealing the hot rolled strip in an induction heater. The alloy composition has mechanical properties that can be varied selectively by varying the time and temperature of a stabilizing anneal.
