  • Publication number: 20090002828
    Abstract: A hand-held laser pointer is disclosed wherein the laser beam is isolated from unwanted hand tremor motions of the laser pointer housing. A laser beam is directed toward a pair of passively inertially stabilized mirrors disposed within the housing that are biased to a neutral position by a spring and damper. Both the laser beam that exits the housing and the laser dot appearing at a target are minimally affected by laser jitter associated with hand tremor.

  • Publication number: 20080308344
    Abstract: An improved system and method for reducing standing waves and diffracted waves in speaker a driver enclosure is disclosed. The speaker driver enclosure has an interior enclosure surface, shaped such that any cross section taken of it comprises a looped, substantially continuously curved, non-rational B spline. A rear enclosure surface is provided, the rear enclosure surface being shaped substantially the same as the interior enclosure surface and offset from the interior enclosure by a wall thickness. An outer baffle surface has slightly varying curvatures such that substantially any cross section taken of it comprises a continuously curved, non-rational B spline and a flat surface shaped such that at least one loudspeaker driver may be mounted to it. A loudspeaker driver is mounted to the flat surface.
