Publication number: 20170304757Abstract: Various embodiments of the present disclosure provide a portable industrial air filtration device employing an annular dual filter assembly to capture and remove impurities from the air surrounding the air filtration device, enabling the air filtration device to quickly and efficiently improve the quality and safety of the air. The air filtration device includes a two-piece housing including a lower housing component and a locking cover removably attachable to the lower housing component. The dual filter assembly is mounted within the housing between the locking cover and the lower housing component, and includes a removable self-supporting outer pre-filter surrounding a separately removable inner HEPA filter. The pre-filter initially filters the surrounding air by capturing relatively large or coarse impurities, and the HEPA filter further filters the air pulled through the pre-filter by capturing relatively small or fine impurities.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 7, 2017Publication date: October 26, 2017Inventors: Keith A. Grider, Derek J. Leatzow, Stephen J. McPhilliamy, Antonio J. Belton, John S. White, JR., Daniel J. Greene

Patent number: 8718937Abstract: A method for determining the relative position of two points using an inertial navigation system is described. The method comprises estimating position error states and a position solution with an INS at a first position, estimating position error states and a position solution with the INS at a second position, and returning the INS to the first position. Estimates of the first and second position error states are adjusted based on correlations developed during a transition returning the INS from the second position to the first position.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2005Date of Patent: May 6, 2014Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.Inventors: Kenneth S. Morgan, Jeffrey A. VanGuilder, John S. White

Patent number: 8494221Abstract: A system comprises a rotatable object having a pseudo-random pattern of overlapping rounded shapes on an outer surface of the rotatable object and an image sensor configured to capture an image of a portion of the pseudo-random pattern on the outer surface. The system also comprises a memory configured to store a pattern map corresponding to the pseudo-random pattern on the outer surface of the rotatable object; and a processing unit configured to correlate the portion of the pseudo-random pattern in the captured image with a corresponding portion of the pattern map stored on the memory.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2011Date of Patent: July 23, 2013Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.Inventors: Karl H. Becker, Nicholas Lyn-Sue, Manuel I. Rodriguez, John S. White

Patent number: 8068136Abstract: A method and system for determining the angular position of an object are disclosed. As one example, a method for determining the angular position of an object is disclosed, which includes the steps of obtaining data representing an image of a surface area of the object, the image including a plurality of dots, determining a set of coordinates for each dot of the plurality of dots, selecting a predetermined number of dots of the plurality of dots, comparing the predetermined number of dots with a plurality of dots stored in a dot map, responsive to the comparing step, if the predetermined number of dots substantially match the plurality of dots stored in the dot map, selecting the predetermined number of dots, and forming a coordinate transformation matrix representing a transformation from a coordinate frame associated with a position of the predetermined number of dots at the surface of the object to a coordinate frame associated with a position of the image of the surface area of the object.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2007Date of Patent: November 29, 2011Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.Inventors: Joseph G. Protola, John S. White
