Publication number: 20250298147Abstract: A system comprises a GNSS receiver in a vehicle that receives satellite signals from GNSS satellites and produces multiple satellite measurements. An INS in the vehicle communicates with the GNSS receiver and includes inertial sensors that produce inertial measurements for the vehicle. A processor, in communication with the GNSS receiver and the INS, hosts a navigation filter and a spoof detector module in communication with the navigation filter. The spoof detector module includes at least a first spoof detection monitor comprising a delta range monitor. The processor is operative to process the satellite measurements and inertial measurements in the navigation filter to produce a navigation solution. The delta range monitor processes the satellite measurements to detect whether there is a spoof event of the satellite signals received by the GNSS receiver. When a spoof event is detected, GNSS aiding of the INS is disabled and the spoof event is announced.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 22, 2024Publication date: September 25, 2025Applicant: Honeywell International Inc.Inventors: Radek Reznicek, Matej Kucera, Radek Baranek, Karl Abraham Keyzer, Daniel Bertrand

Patent number: 12345722Abstract: The invention is achieved by a volumetric displacement calibration device (1) configured to be able to adapt at least one suction system (1000), comprising a tip (1006), having a volume VP, connected to a shaft (1003) comprising a volume change mechanism (1002). The device (1) comprises at least one main chamber (10) and one reference chamber (20), connected by a conduct (100) and a valve (102) to said main chamber (10) and at least one first pressure sensor (12) connected to said main chamber (10). The device (1) comprises also a second pressure sensor (22) connected to said reference chamber (20). The pressure sensors and calculation means allow to calculate an internal volume Vo, being the sum of the volume VP of said aspiration tip (1006), the volume (1005) of the shaft (1003) when the volume change mechanism (1002) is down. The invention is also achieved by a system (2) comprising the device (1) and at least one suction system (10001-1000n) adapted to said device (1).Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2024Date of Patent: July 1, 2025Assignee: UNIPIX SÀRLInventors: Philippe Renaud, Daniel Bertrand, Andreas Möller, Karl-Heinz Boven

Patent number: 7137952Abstract: A new noninvasive approach for intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement allowing continuous monitoring over prolonged periods, regardless of patient's position and activities. The key element of this measurement method is a soft contact lens (1) including at least one strain gage (2) longitudinally arranged around the center of the contact lens and capable of measuring precisely spherical deformations of the eyeball induced by the changes in IOP. This information is transmitted with wires or (preferably) wirelessly in real time to an external recording system (14). The system is placed in the same way as a normal corrective contact lens, no anesthesia is required and patient vision remains almost completely unimpaired.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2001Date of Patent: November 21, 2006Assignee: Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne-Service des Relations IndustriellesInventors: Matteo Leonardi, Stefan Metz, Daniel Bertrand, Peter Leuenberger

Publication number: 20020128003Abstract: An object of the invention is to provide services available on a private network (14) to a user of a mobile terminal (12) connected to a public or private mobile network (10). To this end, the invention provides a telecommunications gateway (22) which is connected between the exchange of the private network (14) and the mobile network. The gateway converts signaling data from the exchange (16) of the private network (14) to a format compatible with a protocol enabling transmission of information and services to and from a mobile terminal, for example the wireless application protocol. It then sends the converted signaling data to the mobile terminal (12) via the mobile network. In the reverse direction, the gateway converts signaling data from the mobile terminal to a format compatible with the exchange and transmits the converted signaling data to the exchange. The invention enables use of services of the private network—call forwarding management, calling by name, etc.—from a mobile terminal.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 25, 2001Publication date: September 12, 2002Inventors: Richard Gruner, Daniel Bertrand, Antoine Lingat, Eric Vallet, Martin De Loye, Jean-Francois Deprun
