George Eastman 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: 7333050
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for simulating a target platform. An incoming radar signal is transmitted from a radar source and is received at a first platform. Time of the received radar signal is modulated to generate first and second range extent signals. The first range extent signal is vector modulated, and the second range extent signal is divided into a plurality of divided second range extent signals. A first of the plurality of divided second range extent signals is phase modulated. A second of the plurality of divided second range extent signals is amplitude modulated. The modulated signals are transmitted from the first platform.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 4660041
    Abstract: The device includes an array of antenna systems which send to a target seeking radar scene simulation signals synchronized with target seeking signals from the target seeking radar. Each of the antenna systems receives control signals which it uses to adjust the scene simulation signals. For FM/CW target seekers, the antenna systems mix the control signals with the target seeking signals. For pulse target seekers, the antenna systems mix the control signals with an illumination signal provided from an illumination radar.

  • Patent number: 4621265
    Abstract: An array of target elements having emissivity and reflectivity properties variable in accordance with a data processing simulation of the electromagnetic signature of a target and target terrain suitable for evaluating the tracking capabilities of an active/passive millimeter wave target seeker.

  • Patent number: 4030486
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a method and specific apparatus for extracting significant data values, analogous temporally and electrically to the physiologic myocardial action potential which accompanies each cardiac contraction, from conventionally recorded electrocardiograms. The apparatus for measuring deflection and temporal values from said conventional electrocardiograms is comprises of three transparent elements. One of the elements constructed to be positioned over the electrocardiogram to be measured and has integral therewith a grid, while the two remaining elements are slideably positioned one over the other on the said positioned element such that their movement is at right angles to each other.
