  • Patent number: 9987190
    Abstract: A vibrator sex toy is provided with touch-based sensors for an ergonomic in-situ method of controlling the operation and intensity of the vibrator. The vibrator sex toy has an internal end, an external end and a middle staging section. The staging section includes a control circuit and batteries. The internal end includes electric vibrator motors connected to the control circuit by wires. The external end includes ergonomically placed touch sensors that behave like variable resistors. The touch sensors respond to natural human gestures such as grasping, stretching, compressing and bending the external end of the sex toy with changes in resistance. The touch sensors are connected to the control circuit by wires and act as potentiometers in the control path of the vibrator motors. The user is able to vary the sensations from the motors intuitively and in-situ by manipulating the external end or applying it to a partner.

  • Publication number: 20150042224
    Abstract: A modular adaptive vehicle headlight installable in a standard vehicle headlight socket is provided with angled light sources. A control circuit within the headlight controls the light sources to project angled headlight beams to left or right of the vehicle during cornering. The control circuit uses an acceleration sensor which detects accelerative force along the transverse axis of the vehicle. This transverse accelerative force is centrifugal force generated by cornering, allowing the control circuit to determine when cornering is occurring and activate angled light sources to illuminate curves in the road. Thresholds for transverse accelerative force vary with vehicle speed and acceleration. Vertical accelerative force is also detected in order to activate upward and downward angled headlights for dips and rises in the road. Curve illuminating headlighting is thus provided modularly in a headlight, with no need for reference to sensors elsewhere in the vehicle.
