Abstract: An inverted double dome double vacuum debulk tool having separable upper and lower chamber portions which can be assembled to form a vacuum chamber. In accordance with some embodiments, the top and bottom halves each comprise a circular cylindrical sidewall closed at one end by an inverted dome. The domes may be hemispherical or semi-elliptical with convex sides facing the chamber interior space. A base plate on which the composite patch rests is removable from the vacuum chamber. Various fittings pass electrical power and vacuum into the tool and sensor outputs out of the tool.

Abstract: A fin-stabilized projectile suitable for launching from a shotgun or similar weapon. The projectile may penetrate easily breakable materials but will not penetrate tougher materials. The projectile may be shot through an easily breakable surface to gain entry to a target location, but further penetration is inhibited. The projectile is equipped with an on board sensor. The halves of the projectile casing form a dipole antenna for transmitting information gathered by the on board sensor.
