  • Publication number: 20220328977
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods provides for technology that controls a confocal antenna system. The technology controls an Integrated Phased Array (IPA) feed system to emit electromagnetic energy towards a sub-reflector, where the sub-reflector reflects the electromagnetic energy to a main reflector, and further where the main reflector receives and reflects the electromagnetic energy to form a radiation pattern on an area. The radiation pattern has a first size and a first gain. The technology conducts an identification that the radiation pattern is to be adjusted so as to adjust the first size to a second size and adjust the first gain to a second gain. In response to the identification, the technology moves the main reflector linearly along a first axis, and electronically steers a beam of the electromagnetic energy emitted from the IPA feed system towards the sub-reflector.

  • Patent number: 11454471
    Abstract: A fire control lockout assembly restricts a semiautomatic style firearm to single shot operation by requiring specific, sequential manual manipulation of the firearm by the operator prior to firing a subsequent round from the firearm. The lockout assembly has a modified safety selector and a modified disconnector and/or a modified trigger assembly that interrupts the usual automatic progression of the fire control group components after firing the firearm by increasing the upward distance the trigger sear must travel before contacting the disconnector. The increased distance prevents the hammer from automatically being released from the disconnector. The modified safety selector has a barrel that presses downward on the rearward end of the disconnector to release the hammer. After firing a round, the safety selector must be moved to its safe position and then to its fire position in order to fire a subsequent round from the firearm.

  • Publication number: 20220050230
    Abstract: Compact lens systems that may be used in small form factor cameras. The lens system may include a master lens with two or more lens elements arranged along an optical axis and having refractive power, and an optical actuator located on the object side of the master lens that may provide autofocus (AF) and/or optical image stabilization (OIS) functionality for the camera. An aperture stop for the camera may be included in the optical actuator, for example between a substrate and a flexible optical element of the optical actuator. Including the aperture stop in the optical actuator rather than in the lens stack may allow the optical actuator to be smaller in the X-Y dimensions (perpendicular to the optical (Z) axis) than it would be in a similar camera with the aperture stop located in the lens stack.
