Publication number: 20240082865Abstract: A mask forming system for protecting a structure and a method of forming a mask for protecting the structure includes a masking material having a first layer, a second layer, and a third layer sandwiched together. The masking material is unrolled across a platform and a plurality of features are generated in the masking material, wherein the features include printing, kiss cutting, and double-kiss cutting the masking material. Data is printed on the first layer of the masking material. The first layer of the masking material is kiss cut. The second layer of the masking material is double-kiss cut. The third layer remains uncut and unprinted on during the formation of the mask. The masking material remains in the same orientation during printing and kiss cutting of the first layer, and the masking material remains in the same orientation during double-kiss cutting of the second layer.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 5, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Applicant: The Boeing CompanyInventors: Guerin Thomas Hollingsworth, Bryce Kenneth Hoch, Robert Frederick Rivers, Jr., Michael Saul Zelinsky, Shelly J. Collinson, Benjamin David Haygood, Jason Anson Dill

Patent number: 11275943Abstract: Object disposal recommendations are generated by classifying an object within an image based on object recognition and metadata of the image and comparing the object and metadata to a corpus of object classification images. A current object state is determined relative to disposal recommendation, based on disposal policies. Responsive to determining disposal of the object in the current state is not recommended, one or more components of the object are identified, and a determination made as to a recommendation for disposal of the one or more object components. If a disposal recommendation is found for the one or more components of the object, the processor generates information to disassemble and prepare the one or more components of the object for disposal and provides disposal recommendation for the one or more components of the object.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2019Date of Patent: March 15, 2022Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Susan Jachin Christian, Pushpita Panigrahi, Michael Anson Lau, Romelia H. Flores

Publication number: 20200167718Abstract: A method of automating organization of a defined space is provided. Spatial data about the defined space and location data of objects in the defined space are received from a number of input devices. A baseline organization scheme of objects in the defined space is created. User profile data is received for an organizer, and a recommended organization scheme of items in the defined space is created based on comparison of the baseline organization scheme with the user profile data for the organizer. A presentation of the recommended organization scheme is generated by a number of user interfaces. Locations of items in the defined space relative to the recommended reorganization scheme are monitored utilizing a number of sensors, and an alert is sent to the organizer if locations of items in the defined space deviate from the recommended organization scheme beyond a predefined threshold.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 28, 2018Publication date: May 28, 2020Inventors: Romelia H. Flores, Roberto Ramon Rodriguez, Ronald Joseph Rutkowski, II, Michael Anson Lau, Marlentae Johnson, Travis Wah Chun

Publication number: 20180018309Abstract: Methods, computer program products, and systems are presented. The methods include, for instance: receiving a request for a response to have a piece of annotative data on a literary text from a user; ascertaining metadata to generate the response is available for the literary device system; identifying a process of the literary device system that is associated with the request; running the process with the request and generating the response based on the metadata; and producing the response to the user such that the user is presented with the annotative data on the literary text.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 18, 2016Publication date: January 18, 2018Inventors: Travis Wah CHUN, Romelia H. FLORES, Ronald Joseph RUTKOWSKI, II, Marlenta Ansean JOHNSON, Roberto Ramon RODRIGUEZ, Michael Anson LAU

Patent number: 4434800Abstract: Tympanometric apparatus comprises a housing of two tubular parts (10, 11) interconnected in a T-shape, a first part (10) having an eyepiece (13) and a speculum (12) at its opposite ends, a semi-silvered or dielectric mirror (14) between the ends, and light and sound sources (15, 16) between the mirror and speculum, and the other housing part (11) having a photodetector (19) across a small area thereof and focusing means (22) between this and the first housing part, the light source projecting a beam through the speculum for reflection from a tympanum to be examined, this reflection being partly transmitted through the mirror to the eyepiece and partly reflected again to be focused on the photodetector, and the sound source causing oscillation of the tympanum with consequent variation of the reflection path and photodetector output. Preferably a microphone (23) is also carried by the first housing part to monitor the acoustic pressure adjacent the tympanum.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 1982Date of Patent: March 6, 1984Assignee: National Research Development CorporationInventors: Michael Anson, Andrew C. Pinder, Alan R. Palmer

Patent number: 4339954Abstract: Measurement of small oscillatory movements of an irregular surface involves the production of a speckle pattern therefrom by coherent light illumination, and the arrangement of a photodetector for direct response to such pattern, variations in photodetector output component at the frequency of the surface movement representing that movement. Another, stationary, illuminated irregular surface can be involved to produce a speckle interference pattern for response of the photodectector thereto and, in the case where the two surfaces are closely adjacent, a single beam can be used to illuminate the first and other surfaces predominantly and by stray light, respectively. This common beam illumination can be used in prior speckle interferometry. The first surface can be an eardrum oscillated by a sound wave, suitably of swept frequency or impulse form, with detection of the photodetector variations respectively being in synchronous manner or by Fourier analysis, respectively.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 1979Date of Patent: July 20, 1982Assignee: National Research Development CorporationInventors: Michael Anson, Shin-Ho Chung, Alan G.
