  • Publication number: 20180098587
    Abstract: The invention is the situation of control enhancement on articles worn by or covering a user. Control enhancement is comprised of friction or grip enhancing materials, shapes, coatings or surfaces situated on articles worn on or covering the arms, legs, head, feet, body and some articles warn on the hands of users to improve the ability of users to grasp, carry, control, influence and deflect objects such as balls, tools, weapons and equipment and to improve the user's control over the user's orientation, position and overall situation. Articles worn by or covering a user (e.g. garments, gear, uniforms, equipment, devices, sleeves, bands, pants, suits, pads) can make it difficult to maintain control of objects or for users to maintain control over their circumstances (e.g. slipping down a smooth surface).

  • Publication number: 20170124174
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate generally to organizing electronic text documents. In particular, one or more embodiments comprise a content management system that improves the organization of electronic text documents by intelligently and accurately categorizing electronic text documents by topic. The content management system organizes electronic text documents based on one or more topics, without the need for a human reviewer to manually classify each electronic text document, and without the need for training a classification algorithm based on a set of manually classified electronic text documents. Further, the content management system identifies and suggests topics for electronic text documents that relate to new or emerging topics.

  • Publication number: 20170052993
    Abstract: A method for identifying a transformation map includes saving a transformation map to a map repository, associating the saved transformation map with input formats and output formats associated with the transformation map, querying the map repository for a plurality of input document formats and desired output formats to provide a transformation map associated with the plurality of input document formats and desired output formats, and executing a transformation on the plurality of input documents according to the provided transformation map to provide transformed output documents. The method may further include using an API to query the map repository. The method may additionally include using a transform API to transform the plurality of input documents. The method may additionally include registering the API used to query the map repository and the transform API with a service registry. A computer program product and computer system corresponding to the method are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20160298922
    Abstract: A system for shooting an armament includes a connector configured to connect to a supporting structure, a side to side windage device connected to the connector, an up and down windage device connected to the connector, at least one guide rail connected to the up and down windage device, a carriage slidably connected to the at least one guide rail, and a gas spring connected to the carriage and the up and down windage device. The system rests a gun during shooting, assists steady aim, and limits any significant jarring and recoil impacting the gun, the system and any support, as well as virtually eliminates recoil force borne by the shooter.

  • Patent number: 9397670
    Abstract: An automatic test system configured for generating a periodic signal of a programmable frequency. The automatic test system may comprise a clock, an edge generator coupled to the clock, a phase locked loop, and a delay adjustment circuit. The edge generator may comprise an edge generator output, an enable input and a delay input. The edge generator may produce at the edge generator output a signal with a delay relative to an edge of the clock specified by a value at the delay input in each cycle of the clock for which the enable input is asserted. The phase locked loop may comprise a reference input and a phase locked loop output configured to provide the periodic signal of the programmable frequency. The delay adjustment circuit may comprise an accumulator that may increase in value by a programmed amount for each cycle of the clock.

  • Patent number: 9077507
    Abstract: A method and system provide a plurality of femto cells that are deployed within a macro cell of cellular network. The femto cells improve cellular service inside structures, such as residential and commercial structures. Femto base stations convert signals between an airlink-interface and core network to enable data communication between the mobile terminal and an access network to occur through the Internet and a public switched telephone network. The femto base stations are independent of each other and the macro cell. The method and system provide the femto base stations with interference awareness and mitigation techniques to minimize interference with the cellular network.
