  • Patent number: 11442163
    Abstract: A real-time aircraft bird congestion indicator system for measuring congestion in an airspace between aircraft and birds uses one or more radars to continuously survey an airspace around an airport or aerodrome and continuously generate aircraft tracks and bird tracks in the airspace. A congestion processor connected to the radar(s) receives the aircraft and bird tracks and processes them to periodically generate a congestion indicator that measures the congestion in the airspace. A display processor connected to the congestion processor receives the congestion indicator which is updated periodically by the congestion processor and displays the congestion indicator to a user, generates an alert if the congestion indicator falls outside set operating limits, and/or sends the congestion indicator or alert to another system.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8472094
    Abstract: A method and system for manipulating object using a three dimensional optical trap configuration. By use of selected hologram on optical strap can be configured as a preselected three dimensional configuration for a variety of complex uses. The system can include various optical train components, such as partially transmissive mirrors and Keplerian telescope components to provide advantageously three dimensional optical traps.

  • Patent number: 7897910
    Abstract: A method and system for establishing extended optical traps for commercial use. The method and system employs a diffractive optical element (DOE) to process a light beam wherein the DOE includes phase information and amplitude information to create the extended optical trap. Such extended traps can be line traps and can be further expanded to two and three dimensional configurations.
