Patent number: 8245623Abstract: A weapon system comprises a first, second and third sensor and a range detecting means. The weapon system further comprises a weapons platform removably mounted to a moveable vehicle. The weapons platform includes a gun. The first sensor is mechanically attached to the gun for sensing an image. The second sensor senses a position of the gun, including at least an elevation and azimuth. The third sensor detects a rate and altitude of the moveable vehicle. The range detecting means detects a range of the gun to the target. The weapon system also comprises an image processor for processing the image from the first sensor, a display for displaying the processed image and a controller. The controller calculates an expected impact point for a round of fire based upon the sensed and detected data, and superimposes the expected impact point on the processed image on the display.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2010Date of Patent: August 21, 2012Assignee: BAE Systems Controls Inc.Inventor: Christopher S. Weaver

Patent number: 8189000Abstract: A computerized method and system for displaying garments on a computer-rendered three-dimensional rotatable model in an interactive virtual reality software product, comprising: storing information related to a computer-rendered three-dimensional model; storing information related to a plurality of computer-rendered three-dimensional garments; accepting a selection of a three-dimensional garment from the user; accessing the information related to a plurality of computer-rendered three-dimensional garments in order to transform information related to the selection of a three-dimensional garment into a display of the selection of the three-dimensional garment on the computer-rendered three-dimensional model; accepting a rotation command on a rotational control, the rotational control being in a vertical axis to simulate a person turning left and/or right; accepting a camera command allowing the display of the selection of the three-dimensional garment to be shown from a variety of camera distances.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2008Date of Patent: May 29, 2012Assignee: Zenimax Media, Inc.Inventor: Christopher S.

Publication number: 20090213117Abstract: A human body is three-dimensionally reproduced to create a computer-rendered model. The model is dynamically manipulable to adjust or customize the dimensions of the model to specified measurements. Computer renderings of garments are stored in the computer. The model may be “clothed” with one or more garments, the representation of a garment being accurately adjusted to reflect its fit on a model of the model's particular dimensions. The computer will accurately represent the specific dimensions of the items of clothing in relation to the customized dimensions of the virtual mannequin. The virtual mannequin may be rotated and may be animated to thereby model the clothing and observe the interaction of the clothing with the environment. Once satisfied to the accuracy/appropriateness of the clothing, the computer can output appropriate dimensional, color, and related coordinates.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 23, 2008Publication date: August 27, 2009Inventor: Christopher S. WEAVER

Patent number: 7096619Abstract: A motion sensing device is embedded in a firearm. A processor in the firearm senses the pattern of motion of the firearm, and on sensing a specified sequence of motions, the processor permits operation of the firearm. The operator would move the firearm in a prescribed fashion to “unlock the gun.” For example, the operator might trace out his or her initials with the muzzle of a pistol. Unlocking would stay valid until the operator released the gun handle or squeezed extra hard on the handle.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2004Date of Patent: August 29, 2006Inventors: Charles L. Jackson, Christopher S. Weaver
