Publication number: 20180053861Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to optical packages having a package body that includes a light protection coating on at least one surface of a transparent material. The light protection coating includes one or more openings to allow light to be transmitted to the optical device within the package body. In one embodiment, the light protection coating and the openings allow substantially perpendicular radiation to be directed to the optical device within the package body. In one exemplary embodiment the light protection coating is located on an outer surface of the transparent material. In another embodiment, the light protection coating is located on an inner surface of the transparent material inside of the package body.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 2, 2017Publication date: February 22, 2018Inventors: Yonggang JIN, David LAWSON, Colin CAMPBELL, Anandan RAMASAMY

Publication number: 20180037425Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure a system for capturing proppant dust particles when positioned at a fracking operation site including a proppant delivery assembly to receive one or more containers having proppant stored therein. The system dispenses the proppant from the one or more containers and delivers the proppant to other fracking operation equipment. Moreover, the system includes a dust collection assembly positioned proximate and associated with the proppant delivery assembly to capture dust particles released by movement and settling of the proppant when being dispensed and delivered by the proppant delivery assembly. The dust collection assembly is positioned to direct an air flow in a flow path overlying the dust particles to capture the dust particles and move the dust particles away from the proppant thereby reducing risk of dust exposure to fracking operation site personnel.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 18, 2017Publication date: February 8, 2018Inventors: Joshua Oren, Marty Boros, Pete Berveiler, Dave Hansen, Colin Campbell, Mike Edwards, Thomas Massalone

Patent number: 9495700Abstract: The present invention employs branded virtual characters to engage and educate users regarding an array of health-related insurance, financial, and other benefits, enabling informed decision-making during this complex process. Information is collected gradually on an “as-needed” basis to avoid overwhelming users with lengthy and redundant requests for information, while still providing a safe environment for users to freely discuss personal, health, financial and related sensitive issues. Throughout the process, the system employs a portfolio-driven approach to identify inter-dependencies among different benefit products and plans, and prioritize and recommend “portfolio-level” benefit solutions. Back-end components enable users to complete transactions (e.g.Type: GrantFiled: October 13, 2014Date of Patent: November 15, 2016Assignee: NAVERA, INC.Inventors: Michael Hoch, Colin Campbell, Sandy Yu, David Wallace

Publication number: 20160306031Abstract: A time of flight detector includes an electromagnetic radiation emitter configured to emit a beam of radiation. A first optical element receives the beam of radiation and generates a collimated beam of radiation. A second optical element defines a narrow imaging field of view sufficient to capture reflected electromagnetic radiation from the collimated beam. An electromagnetic radiation sensor then senses the captured reflected electromagnetic radiation from the collimated beam in the narrow imaging field of view. Further narrowing of the imaging field of view is accomplished by selective enabling a sub-array of photosensitive elements with the electromagnetic radiation sensor.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 14, 2015Publication date: October 20, 2016Applicant: STMicroelectronics (Research & Development) LimitedInventors: Adam Caley, Colin Campbell, Christopher Townsend
