Abstract: Eyewear with earpieces supported from a wearer's ear with optional audio apparatus for use by the wearer, having a front frame browpiece portion including a front transparent panel that may be tinted and/or may be designed to correct vision impairments, being supported on a wearer's head by a nose bridge and by at least one earpiece or earplug that is received into the concha of the wearer's ear and/or into the ear canal. The earpiece or earplug is attached to a rear end of its respective temple of the eyewear and the respective temple for the earpiece or earplug is not supported over the wearer's ear. Preferably both temples are only supported by their respective rear earpiece or earplug. The earpieces of some embodiments sealingly and protectively plug the ear canal of the wearer. The eyewear may include an optional microphone, whether as a boom-mounted microphone or an ear microphone, and may include audio earpieces for reproducing sound from an audio signal source.

Abstract: An acoustical control earpiece comprised of non-foamed polyvinyl chloride plastisol. The earpieces may be acoustical hearing protective earplugs as well as overmolds and covers for audio sound reproduction devices such as headphones, speakers, and hearing aids, and may be used alone or in conjunction with hearing protector bands or eyewear. The earplugs may have an open or closed internal void therewithin, are adapted for receipt into the concha and ear canal of a wearer. The earpieces may be formed by injection molding, roto-molding, or slush molding. The hardness of the earpieces has a 00 Durometer hardness value of about 10 to 90 and preferably ranging 40 to 60.

Abstract: A trailer is provided including a neck adapted for engaging a towing structure. A frame is fixedly attached to the neck. A plurality of wheel assemblies are coupled to the frame. Also included is a deck pivotally attached to the frame.

Abstract: A method is described for providing an estimate of the state of a stationary or moving contact in a three dimensional ocean. The method comprises the steps of collecting information about a location of an observer during a sequence of time, information from at least one sensor about a position of the contact relative to the observer during the time sequence, and a knowledge vector. Transforming the information into a series of three dimensional geographical grids. Examining the grids to identify hypothesized contact paths and analyzing the hypothesized contact paths to produce an estimate of the state of the contact with respect to the location of the observer. A device for providing the estimate of the state of a stationary or moving contact includes a grid stimulation block for transforming the collected information into the three dimensional geographical grids. A fusion block where grids corresponding to similar time intervals are combined or fused.

Abstract: An eyesight and hearing safety apparatus for use by a human being. The apparatus comprises a front guard portion including a front transparent panel for protecting the eyesight of the human being. The apparatus further comprises a first and a second earplug for protecting the hearing of the human being. The apparatus further comprises a first temple having a first attachment end and a first support end. The first attachment end is hingedly attached to one end of the front guard portion. The first earplug is attached to the first temple adjacent the first support end. The first temple and the first earplug support the front guard portion from a respective auditory canal when the human being is wearing the apparatus. The apparatus further comprises a second temple having a second attachment end and a second support end. The second attachment end is hingedly attached to one end of the front guard portion. The second earplug is attached to the second temple adjacent the second support end.

Abstract: A system for generating a minimal artificial neural network (ANN) architecture having as inputs the minimal number of features necessary to discriminate between event classes. A network generator generates an initial ANN architecture. A training processor generates a trained ANN by training the initial ANN to a desired degree of accuracy. A pruning processor prunes the trained ANN by removing interconnections and nodes from the trained ANN. The training processor and pruning processor continue to train and prune the ANN until a minimal network architecture having the class discrimination features as its only inputs is obtained.

Abstract: A method is described for providing an estimate of the state of a moving contact. The method comprises providing a device for estimating the state of the contact, inputting information about a location of an observer platform at particular time intervals and information from at least one sensor about a position of the moving contact relative to the observer platform at each time interval into the device, transforming the inputted information into a series of geographical grids with one grid being formed for each reading of the at least one sensor; combining grids corresponding to similar time intervals into a series of consolidated grid representations; and analyzing the series of consolidated grid representations to produce an estimate of the state of the contact at a final point in time where an observation was made.

Abstract: A metal-clad laminate having special utility in the production of high resolution printed circuit patterns and preparation of the laminate are described. The laminate preferably comprises a resin-bonded, glass-reinforced substrate, a layer of coupling agent covering and bonded to a major surface of the substrate, a layer of ultra-thin copper adjacent the layer of coupling agent, and a composite bonding layer disposed between the copper layer and the layer of coupling agent.
