Patent number: 10667496Abstract: A bovine monitoring system may include a rumination sensor, a motion sensor, a posture sensor. The rumination sensor may detect chewing by sensing jaw motion. The motion sensor may detect motion. The posture sensor may detect orientation of the bovine asset through detection of gravitational acceleration, detection of gyroscopic rotation, or a combination of gravitational acceleration and gyroscopic rotation. Using the recorded rumination, motion, and posture sensors, the bovine asset monitoring system may identify aberrations in the estrous cycle or physical or mental health of the bovine assets. A bovine monitoring system may include a thermal scanning device to detect localized heating of the vulva area of the bovine asset, which may be used to identify aberrations in the estrous cycle or physical or mental health of the bovine assets.Type: GrantFiled: August 13, 2018Date of Patent: June 2, 2020Assignee: Horse Sense Shoes, LLCInventors: Roger Roisen, Michael McHugh, Craig S. Wilson

Publication number: 20190066036Abstract: A method or system for distributed asset location monitoring may include determining a current device location of a mobile electronic device, sending the current device location to an asset-tracking device, receiving a previous asset location from the asset-tracking device, and storing the current device location and the previous asset location in an asset-tracking record. In some examples, the asset-tracking device includes a Bluetooth radio tag, and the loss or the acquisition of the Bluetooth signal generates the event signal to capture the time stamp and geographic location of the asset and map that data in the cloud. In some examples, the asset-tracking device includes an environmental data logger, and the Bluetooth tag may store environmental data including temperature, humidity, barometric elevation, or acceleration.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2018Publication date: February 28, 2019Inventors: Roger Roisen, Michael McHugh, Craig S. Wilson, Shane McCarron

Patent number: 9897683Abstract: A method includes receiving a transmitted signal containing an object identifier at multiple dispersed antennas, and utilizing inverse Kriging to identify a probable location of each object within a reception area. An object being tracked may detect an event, generate a communication indicative of the event and an object identifier, and transmit the communication to multiple receivers to identify a location of the object.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 2015Date of Patent: February 20, 2018Assignee: Horse Sense Shoes, LLCInventors: Roger Roisen, Craig S.

In some examples, the asset-tracking device includes a readable and writable near field communication (NFC) tag, and sending the current device location to the asset-tracking device causes the current device location to be written to the NFC tag. In some examples, the asset-tracking device includes an environmental data logger, and the NFC tag may store environmental data including temperature, humidity, barometric elevation, or acceleration.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 23, 2015Publication date: December 29, 2016Inventors: Roger Roisen, Craig S.

Patent number: 6727221Abstract: A perfume composition contains at least 30% by weight of perfume components having a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for coryneform bacteria of greater than 0.1%. The composition can be used in deodorant products to reduce body malodour sub-lethally, i.e. without significantly affecting the numbers of bacteria present on the skin surface.Type: GrantFiled: January 5, 2001Date of Patent: April 27, 2004Assignee: Quest International B.V.Inventors: Craig S.

Patent number: 6645549Abstract: A process for providing bond enhancement and an etch resist for a printed circuit board is provided. A sheet comprising at least a layer of copper is immerses in a first immersion tin solution comprising a tin metal and a complexing agent in an acidic medium for a time sufficient to deposit a first heavy tin deposit on the sheet. The sheet is then immersed in a second immersion tin solution comprising stannous tin ions and stannic tin ions and a complexing agent in an acidic medium for a time sufficient to deposit a second thin tin deposit on the sheet. The second thin tin deposit has a thickness less than a thickness of the first heavy tin deposit. A rough surface texture providing mechanical adhesion sites results. The board is then treated with a coupling agent, such as silane, for enhanced bonding to a subsequent epoxy or other polymer prepreg. Additionally, the first heavy tin deposit may serve as an etch resist in subsequent fabrication of the provided circuit board.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2001Date of Patent: November 11, 2003Assignee: Parlex CorporationInventors: Darryl J. McKenney, Arthur J. Demaso, Kathy A. Gosselin, Craig S. Wilson
