Patents by Inventor Raphaël Teysseyre

Raphaël Teysseyre has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9759736
    Abstract: This device for determining wind speed comprises at least two laser sources emitting beams in different directions that are coplanar and such that each emission direction corresponds to a perpendicular emission direction. Each laser source is associated with focusing optics for focusing the emitted beam, a laser diode for receiving a reflected beam obtained after reflection by a particle present in the air of the corresponding emitted beam, a photodiode for transmitting an interference signal occurring between the emitted beam and the reflected beam, a processor for processing the obtained interference signals, and an optical cavity into which the reflected beam is reinjected in order to obtain an interference with the emitted beam.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20160245839
    Abstract: A device comprises: an emitting element for emitting a laser beam, referred to as an emitted beam; a focusing element for focusing the emitted beam at a predetermined focal distance (D); a receiving element for receiving the emitted beam after being reflected by a particle in the air (18), referred to as a reflected beam; a transmitting element for transmitting the signal of interference occurring between the emitted beam and the reflected beam to a signal processor in order to deduce the speed of the particle therefrom. The emitting element includes a laser diode and the receiving element is combined with the laser diode by self-mixing. The focal distance is between 5 cm and 2 m.
