  • Publication number: 20250208065
    Abstract: A sensor system that can be used to analyze structures associated with aerial vehicles using one or more radio frequency (RF) or microwave frequency signals. For example, the sensor system can be used to analyze an aerial vehicle structure to detect metal fatigue, micro-cracks, thermal stress, defects, deformations, and other possible indicators of overstress and/or failure. The aerial vehicle structures that can be analyzed are any structures associated with or used on an aerial vehicle, whether propelled by one or more turbine engines, by one or more propellers, one or more rocket engines, or other forms of propulsion.

  • Patent number: 12318203
    Abstract: Access to a vehicle is controlled based on the presence or amount of one or more analytes in a potential driver. The one or more analytes are detected using a non-invasive analyte sensor. The non-invasive analyte sensor may be included in a steering wheel of the vehicle, a touch point in the vehicle, or a mobile device of the potential driver. The one or more analytes are indicative of an identity and/or a status of the potential driver. The status of the potential driver may include the presence of amounts above a threshold for one or more intoxicants and/or indicators of tiredness or sickness. The access is based on the identity and/or status of the potential driver as indicated by the presence or amount of the one or more analytes.

  • Publication number: 20240144715
    Abstract: A sensor is controlled to non-invasively detect one or more analytes in a subject based on the biological identity or a status of the subject. The biological identity or status can be obtained either from another device or from detection by the sensor itself. The detection of the analytes based on the biological identity or the status can include generating a transmit signal, transmitting the signal into the subject, obtaining a response, and processing the response to determine the presence or amount of one or more analytes. The characteristics of the transmit signal, the processing of the response, and/or the one or more analytes being detected can be selected based on the identity and/or the status of the subject.

  • Publication number: 20220287595
    Abstract: Establishing an analyte database using analyte data that has been obtained using non-invasive analyte sensors, and using the analyte database to analyze data obtained using a non-invasive analyte sensor. Once the analyte database is established, the analyte database can be updated with new analyte data, and the analyte database can be used to analyze the new analyte data to derive information from the new analyte data. For example, in the case of a human target, the new analyte data together with the analyte database can be used to predict an actual or possible abnormal medical pathology of the human target.

  • Publication number: 20080056555
    Abstract: In a method and apparatus for performing commercial and other activities using one or more two- or three-dimensional representational images, superimposing a two- or three-dimensional representational image, containing an image of the workpiece in an advanced state of assembly, with a surface or onto the actual workpiece, and utilizing the superimposed representational image to assist in the assembly of the workpiece. One or more two- or three-dimensional representational images are created, e.g., using standard photography, holography or computer imaging, and are placed in a frame integrated within the assembly line of the manufacturing facility. The workpiece is positioned in relation to location of the representational image, such that the representational image may be superimposed onto the workpiece. An assembly operation is then performed using the superimposed representational image as a template.

  • Publication number: 20060098435
    Abstract: In an object verifier having a housing and an object holder, an object may be placed in the object holder for observation by an operator. The object is illuminated using a collimated beam of white light that is generated by a light generator. The collimated beam of white light is passed through a beam splitter with the two portions of the collimated beam of white light presented to the object at a 90 degree angle one from the other. The interior of the housing includes a reflective surface for maximal illumination of the object. The observer may view the illuminated object through a viewing window and/or through a magnification window. The magnification window provides for the viewing of the object in greater detail.
