  • Patent number: 9312557
    Abstract: A rechargeable power system comprising: a drill string configured to operate in a well bore, the drill string comprising: a fuel cell system; a generator in electrical communication with the fuel cell system; a turbine, configured to rotate due to an impingement of drilling mud on one or more turbine blades, the turbine in operable communication with the generator; and where the fuel cell system is configured to provide power at least when drilling mud is not circulating in the well bore, and further configured to be recharged by the generator when drilling mud is circulating in the well bore. A method for operating a rechargeable downhole fuel cell. The method comprises: monitoring a fluid supply pressure; determining whether the fluid supply pressure is below a threshold value; and stopping a fuel cell discharge if the fluid supply pressure is below the threshold value.

  • Publication number: 20160033328
    Abstract: A spectroscopic device, which may be a handheld spectroscopic light source, which uses ambient light as a primary broadband light source, but which may be supplemented with an auxiliary light source to supplement band regions which may be deficient in the broad band source. The spectroscopic device makes use of a number of parallel control channels to monitor for sufficient light and to compensate for variations in the input light levels.

  • Publication number: 20160025994
    Abstract: A spatial filter is made by forming a structure comprising a focusing element and an opaque surface, the opaque surface being disposed remotely from the focusing element in substantially the same plane as a focal plane of the focusing element; and by forming a pinhole in the opaque surface at or adjacent to a focal point of the focusing element by transmitting a substantially collimated laser beam through the focusing element so that a point optimally corresponding to the focal point is identified on the opaque surface and imperfection of the focusing element, if any, is reflected on the shape and position of the pinhole so formed.

  • Publication number: 20150377780
    Abstract: A device for detecting an analyte includes a light source emitting substantially monochromatic light; a two-dimensional diffraction element that interacts with the light from the light source, the diffraction element having one or more features that can generate plasmon waves upon receipt of the light from the light source, at least some of the features being configured to interact with the analyte; and a two-dimensional image sensor facing the diffraction element to receive diffracted light from the diffraction element so as to detect a diffraction pattern projected thereto and to measure a two-dimensional spatial change in the diffraction pattern that occurs as a result of the analyte interacting with the feature of the diffraction element.

  • Publication number: 20150308893
    Abstract: A spectroscopic measurement system, which may utilize multiple plasmonic filters associated with a cuvette to monitor different wavelengths of light. The spectroscopic measurement system may measure absorbance and or fluorescence, and may have built-in low cost CMOS image sensor(s). Reagents and samples may be introduced to the cuvette from a fluidics manifold. Multiple sets of combined cuvettes, image sensors and plasmonic filters may utilize a single fluidics manifold for reagent and sample distribution.

  • Publication number: 20140080593
    Abstract: A gaming system includes a motion tracking sensing device, a user image reproduction device to display a mirror image of a user operating the gaming system, a user image enhancement display device disposed in proximity to the user image reproduction device, and one or more memory devices storing instructions. The instructions cause the gaming system to sense, via the motion tracking sensing device, a first relative position of the user, generate first graphical images and first graphical image locations based on the sensed first relative position of the user, and output the first graphical images at the first graphical image locations on the user image enhancement display device so that the graphical images overlay corresponding portions of the mirror image of the user when viewed from the sensed first relative position of the user.
