Abstract: A device and method consisting of conductive, non-conductive, and support materials. These materials when dispensed or extruded onto a multitude of temporary structures will create an implantable conductive and non-conductive structure suitable for neurological electrical stimulation and neurological electrical recording. This structure may also be suitable for delivering fluid and/or contain optical structures suitable for physiological sensing.

Abstract: This disclosure involves a method of controlling a safety critical control device, the method comprising: sending user inputs to a first state machine, identifying user inputs by the first state machine, determining the correct state to communicate to a second state machine, the correct state being determined by selecting one state of a plurality of states depending on the user inputs, communicating the correct state to a second state machine through a control bus, and determining the correct state for the second state machine based on communication from the control bus.

Abstract: A temperature sensor assembly is disclosed, formed of flexible, resilient, and insulative material, so that a contact temperature sensor, situated in a housing and connected to an electrical meter, may be affixed temporarily or permanently to a (generally) cylindrical tube, pipe, or other “line,” the distal ends of the housing straps stretched and tensioned to press the housing and contact temperature sensor on to the exterior of such fluid line to keep the housing in the correct position on the fluid line, and the distal ends of the straps joined to secure the assembly to the fluid line, so that the temperature on the exterior of the fluid line, and the temperature of the fluid therewithin, may thereby be measured.

Abstract: A cargo pod for light aircraft forming a sealed enclosure with an access door therein, the pod being attached to the aircraft through the use of over center latches. The cargo pod is made of a fiberglass laminate and has skids for sliding the pod when detached from the aircraft.

Abstract: The present invention provides a nonwoven composite and a process for making a nonwoven composite suitable for making shoe counters comprising: (1) dispersing an effective amount of a thermoplastic resin throughout the interstitial space of a nonwoven fabric having two fabric surfaces wherein the first fabric surface has a velvety or felt texture and the second fabric surface has a fused surface thereby forming a thermoplastic resin-loaded nonwoven fabric; thereafter heating said thermoplastic resin-loaded fabric in a manner which impregnates said thermoplastic resin onto the nonwoven fabric thus forming said nonwoven composite with one velvety or felt surface substantially free of thermoplastic resin in the absence of buffing.
