Patent number: 12644449Abstract: Provided herein is a system and method for monitoring, troubleshooting, and providing predictive maintenance to pumps systems. The methods provided herein can utilize and/or interpret physical phenomena of pump systems and components thereof. The physical phenomena may include, but is not limited to, vibration, temperature, sound, or similar characteristics. Further, a cloud-based system can collect data from autonomously operated systems, to provide visualizations of collected data via a user interface, and analyze the collected data with various models to predict maintenance, determine optimizations, and facilitate troubleshooting of the systems.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2023Date of Patent: June 2, 2026Assignee: Viking Pump, Inc.Inventors: Cameron Neff, Michael Strei, John Hall, Ahmad Shehata, Randy Antonich, Scott Meyer, Nick Thompson

Publication number: 20260073806Abstract: Interactive augmented-reality technologies track radiation exposure of a user moving through a physical scene. The radiation exposure tracking is performed using radiation measurements associated with a radiation field caused by a radioactive source of a particular type that emits radiation from a predetermined location of the scene. Radiation voxels associated with a simulation field corresponding to the radiation field can be updated in this manner. Each radiation voxel is indicative of a respective level of the simulated field at the voxel's scene location.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 3, 2025Publication date: March 12, 2026Applicant: UT-Battelle, LLCInventors: M. Scott Greenwood, Michael B. R. Smith, Nick Thompson, Noel B. Nelson, Douglas E. Peplow

Patent number: 12354501Abstract: Interactive augmented-reality technologies track simulated-radiation exposure of a user moving through a physical scene. The simulated-radiation exposure tracking is performed using radiation voxels associated with a simulated radiation field caused as if a radioactive source of a particular type was emitting radiation from a predetermined location of the scene. Each radiation voxel is indicative of a respective level of the simulated radiation field at the voxel's scene location.Type: GrantFiled: April 14, 2023Date of Patent: July 8, 2025Assignee: UT-Battelle, LLCInventors: M. Scott Greenwood, Michael B. R. Smith, Nick Thompson, Noel B. Nelson, Douglas E. Peplow

Publication number: 20220371034Abstract: An electrostatic sprayer includes a spray gun having a nozzle at which pressurized spray media and pressurized air are combined into an atomized mixture. A generator electrostatically charges the atomized mixture at the nozzle. The generator may also electrostatically charge the pressurized spray media, or the pressurized air, or both at the nozzle. An input device of the spray gun is actuable by a user to vary a flow of the pressurized spray media to the nozzle. A main unit is connected to the spray gun with a hose via which the pressurized spray media and the pressurized air are communicated to the spray gun. The main unit has a first power mode in which a battery powers component(s) of the electrostatic sprayer. The main unit also has a second power mode in which a power source spaced apart from the main unit powers the component(s) of the electrostatic sprayer.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 19, 2022Publication date: November 24, 2022Inventors: Kolby Oswald, Nick Thompson, Charles Deathridge, Reid Bieber, Chris Neeley, Donny Hackett
