Patents by Inventor Rod Tuckwell

Rod Tuckwell 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: 11687307
    Abstract: The system comprises a first display mounted in a fixed position, a computer system coupled to the first display and a handheld computing device, wherein the first display is larger than the second display, the first display has a wider field of view than the second display, the first display establishes an optical link with the second display, the first display and the second display renders a virtual reality model of a scene with moving objects and asynchronous visual events. The handheld computing device is configured to scan machine-readable code embedded in asynchronous visual events, the result of scanning indicates location of the asynchronous visual events and transmits the location of the synchronous visual events to one or more remote computing devices using one or more wireless link, and in response to transmission of the location, modify the virtual reality model of the scene rendered on the first display.

  • Patent number: 10340960
    Abstract: A military communications unit that utilizes a relatively high-bandwidth digital communication networks (e.g., cellular networks) is capable of acting as a wireless communications hub for a soldier, vehicle, weapon, or other entity. The military communications unit can obtain data from multiple devices via close-range wireless technologies and communicate with training or operational networks. The military communications unit can be flexible in its capacity to relay data by formatting data in accordance with Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS), High-Level Architecture (HLA), and/or another distributed computer simulation standard. Moreover, the military communications unit may be further capable of “re-banding,” enabling communications using cellular protocols and/or standards in non-cellular frequency bands.
