The firearm scope may be used as s clip-on sight system that transmits the direct view image, the infrared (IR) video image, and the auxiliary video image to a primary firearm scope. The auxiliary video image may include a bore-sighted reticle image superimposed on the direct view image or the IR video image.

Abstract: A power converter having an integrated input bias self-supply function has an input switch, a controller, an output switch, and an output filter having an inductor. The controller includes control circuitry, a bias drive circuit, and a bias supply circuit. The bias supply circuit includes a bias transistor and a bias diode. The control circuitry and the bias drive circuit produce a bias drive signal indicative of the conductive states of the input and output switches. When the bias drive signal is asserted, the bias transistor is configured to be on and the bias diode is configured to be reverse biased and not conduct any forward current. When the bias drive signal is deasserted, the bias transistor is configured to be off.

Abstract: A method executed by a computing device includes determining a set of identigens for each query word of a query to produce sets of identigens, where a set of identigens represents different meanings of a word of the query. The method further includes interpreting the sets of identigens to produce a query entigen group. The method further includes accessing a knowledge database utilizing the query entigen group to recover a preliminary response entigen group. The method further includes modifying an answer breadth level based on a response to the preliminary response entigen group to produce an updated answer breadth level. The method further includes accessing the knowledge database utilizing the query entigen group to recover a secondary response entigen group the updated answer breadth level.

Abstract: A shingle coating asphalt composition is provided that is produced from a paving grade asphalt. The asphalt composition comprises a paving-grade asphalt that has been modified with one or more polymer additives; and a secondary additive comprising one or more of a viscosity reducing agent, a wax, a salt of a fatty acid ester, and an amide of a fatty acid. The shingle coating asphalt coating composition is used to make a shingle. The shingle includes a substrate, the asphalt, and roofing granules.

Abstract: A power converter comprises a stack of circuit layers, a magnetic core, an area of the stack of circuit layers, and power converter circuit components mounted on the stack of circuit layers. The stack of circuit layers has a hole which extends through each of the circuit layers. A portion of the circuit layers form an energy transfer element that comprises an input winding and an output winding. Each winding includes at least one winding layer having a planar winding and connections for electrical connectivity. The magnetic core is positioned within the hole substantially perpendicular to the stack. The area of the stack of circuit layers encompasses the windings and connections for electrical connectivity of the input and output windings. The power converter circuit components are mounted within the area of the stack and external to the magnetic core.
