Publication number: 20240074699Abstract: Disclosed is a system, method, and apparatus for quantification and feedback of eye deviations during normal viewing conditions. A sensory biofeedback system serves to emit a sensory cue such as a tone or vibration when a certain threshold of eye deviation has been exceeded. The biofeedback system allows objective monitoring of the accuracy of eye alignment that can be used outside of a clinical setting or inside a clinical setting.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 7, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Applicant: New Jersey Institute of TechnologyInventors: Christopher Morris, Tara Lynn Alvarez, Mitchell Scheiman, Chang Yaramothu, John Vito d'Antonio-Bertagnolli

Patent number: 9810118Abstract: This catalyst system simultaneously removes ammonia and enhances net NOx conversion by placing an NH3-SCR catalyst formulation downstream of a lean NOx trap. By doing so, the NH3-SCR catalyst adsorbs the ammonia from the upstream lean NOx trap generated during the rich pulses. The stored ammonia then reacts with the NOx emitted from the upstream lean NOx trap-enhancing the net NOx conversion rate significantly, while depleting the stored ammonia. By combining the lean NOx trap with the NH3-SCR catalyst, the system allows for the reduction or elimination of NH3 and NOx slip, reduction in NOx spikes and thus an improved net NOx conversion during lean and rich operation.Type: GrantFiled: September 8, 2010Date of Patent: November 7, 2017Assignee: Ford Global Technologies, LLCInventors: Haren Sakarai Gandhi, John Vito Cavataio, Robert Henry Hammerle, Yisun Cheng

Patent number: 9000287Abstract: In some embodiments, an electric guitar interface system, includes a first touchpad of an electric guitar configured to detect a user input, and a control unit coupled to the first touchpad. The control unit may be configured to set a first parameter of the electric guitar's output as a function of a position of the user input along the first axis. The first parameter includes a first pickup gain. The first pickup gain may be for at least one of a bridge pickup, a middle pickup, and a neck pickup. The first parameter includes a second pickup gain.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2013Date of Patent: April 7, 2015Inventors: Mark Andersen, John Vito Biondo
