Patents by Inventor Daniel Chavez

Daniel Chavez has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10896773
    Abstract: Quench protected structured (QPS) superconducting cables, methods of fabricating the same, and methods of bending the same are disclosed. The methods of bending the QPS superconducting cables can be employed to produce windings. The QPS superconducting cables can rapidly drive a distributed quench to a normal conducting state in a superconducting cable if a region of the cable spontaneously quenches during high current operation.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 20, 2018
    Date of Patent: January 19, 2021
    Assignee: The Texas A&M University System
    Inventors: Peter McIntyre, Akhdiyor Sattarov, Thomas Mann, James Gerity, Klaus Smit, Daniel Chavez, Nathaniel Pogue, Michael Tomsic

  • Patent number: 9630324
    Abstract: A system for robotic device control and data acquisition, comprising a robotic device control system adapted to receive sensor-based data comprising physical object information, the sensor-based data being received from a plurality of sources, each source comprising at least a physical sensor in communication with the robotic device control system computer via a communications network, an enhanced robotic device control application adapted to receive sensor-based data from the robotic device control system computer and manipulate the sensor-based data to produce enhanced data, and a method for robotic device control and data acquisition.
