Publication number: 20240127199Abstract: A system for interfacing predetermined services to a user at a fixed location includes a processing platform running an operating system. The system further includes a data store for storing configuration information for enabling the operating system to interface with available physical system resources through the physical system resource interface associated therewith. A communication resource for interfacing with the operating system allows communication of the operating system with a central office for downloading configuration information to selectively enable ones of the available physical system resources to interface with the operating system through associated ones of the physical system resource interfaces in accordance with the configuration information and the predetermined service selected by a user. A plurality of configurations is stored in the data store, and each is associated with a predetermined service and one or more of the available physical system resources.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 22, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: ANTHONY M. CACHERIA, III, DAVID HOOKER, Wayne Thomas McHUGH, KRISTOPHER GLOVER, WEBB EDWARDS, Arthur Martin HOLBROOK, BARRETT JENKINS, Mohamed Safir SALIHU, Purnendu MISHRA

Patent number: 10641441Abstract: A luminaire system is provided that has directional light projection optics combined with a light distribution modifier to produce a non-uniform angular light intensity distribution from a single or array of light sources. The luminaire system provides for light intensity distribution with directional asymmetry meeting the specifications and requirements of aviation obstruction lights. The light distribution modifier component or subassembly redirects, scatters, refracts, diffracts and/or blocks part of the projection light in the distribution of the primary optics that would otherwise produce ground scatter. Unlike peripheral light shields at the marginal limits of the light distribution from the luminaire light system, the light distribution modifier is located near to the optical axis of the projection optics system.Type: GrantFiled: January 12, 2019Date of Patent: May 5, 2020Inventors: Robert Wolfenden, Jr., David Glover, Robert Burger, Steve Becerra, Robert Wolfenden, Sr.
