Publication number: 20170266052Abstract: A system for accurately measuring compression garments in laboratory and manufacturing environments provides measurements for industry-standard sizes and individually customized garments and can use the measurements to modify the programming of a manufacturing system to alter the compression parameters of subsequently manufactured garments. The system includes a support structure and a plurality of sensor units at intervals along the support structure with each sensor unit extended circumferentially around the support structure to define a three-dimensional simulated anatomical form circumferentially stretching the compression garment upon insertion of the assembly. Each sensor unit has a pressure sensor measuring the pressure exerted by the compression garment on the sensor unit after insertion.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 16, 2017Publication date: September 21, 2017Inventors: Fredrick Ellis Levine, Neil Seth Levine

Patent number: 9658101Abstract: A device for measuring or detecting UV radiation that is usable with sunscreen, the device including: (a) a colorant layer having at least one photochromic material that is capable of changing its color when exposed to UV radiation, and (b) an over-layer atop the colorant layer having (i) a bottom surface that is in contact with a top surface of the colorant layer and (ii) an opposing top surface, the over-layer having a material that is constructed and arranged to allow at least a portion of the sunscreen, when deposited on the top surface of the over-layer, to be absorbed by the over-layer while preventing the sunscreen so deposited from penetrating through the over-layer to the colorant layer, the over-layer being transparent to allow UV radiation to pass through the over-layer to the colorant layer at least when the surface of the over-layer is not covered with the sunscreen. Also, methods for preparing and using the device.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2016Date of Patent: May 23, 2017Assignee: JADS INTERNATIONAL LLCInventors: Andrew Seth Levine, Alexandra Michele Levine, Nicole Ann Zujovic

Patent number: 8958902Abstract: A method for reducing the occurrence of float threads on the surface of a machine-knitted fabric. Beginning with an initial programmed pattern describing yarn used at each stitch in a knitting pattern, the present method identifies stitches that will create float threads, sorts the identified float threads, giving priority to those float threads that would most limit stretch in a knitted garment, taking into account factors such as float thread length, location in a garment and yarn stretch. Then, in order of the sorted float thread list, the present method assigns additional yarns of the same characteristics as the original yarns to available yarn feeds to minimize the eventual creation of float threads in the knitted fabric. Multiple passes are made through the programmed pattern until no additional floats can be mitigated, or until a predetermined number of passes has been completed.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 2014Date of Patent: February 17, 2015Assignee: XOAB LLCInventors: Fredrick Ellis Levine, Neil Seth Levine

Publication number: 20120036007Abstract: Systems and methods for creating, managing and optimizing online advertising campaigns include groups of independent human resources working through a marketplace to suggest and optimize appropriate choices for how, where and how much to pay for online advertising. Optimization is achieved through the use of market-based incentives that pay participants based on the quality, quantity and efficiency of the results of their suggestions. The systems and methods enable a marketplace that leverages the inherent knowledge of a large group of people to come up with all search terms, placements, targeting and advertisements that might be relevant to a product, and determine the optimal auction prices for these search terms, placements, targeting and ads on the search engine systems.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 18, 2011Publication date: February 9, 2012Inventors: Niel ROBERTSON, Chris BURTON, Tom GUZIK, Jeff OSBORN, Michael LAWLESS, Bill QUINN, Seth LEVINE, Matt HESSLER, David MITCHELL

Patent number: 7404842Abstract: A hydrogen storage system is described that can fabricated under ambient atmospheric conditions and humidity. The hydrogen storage system includes hydrogen-absorbing alloy particles, such as ABx-type alloys, for example LaNi4.7Al0.3, AB/A2B-type alloys, for example Mg2Ni, and AB2-type alloys, and group VIII transition metal particles, such as Pd, Pt, Ni, Ru, and/or Re, that are mechanically alloyed. The mechanically alloyed particles are stable and retain their hydrogen-absorbing efficiency even after prolonged exposure to air and water. Binders and solvent can be added to produce low-viscosity inks. The hydrogen storage system can be used with fuel cells that can be microfabricated and optionally be integrated with electronic devices.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2004Date of Patent: July 29, 2008Inventors: Jesse Wainright, Joe Payer, Chung-Chiun Liu, Laurie Dudik, Xi Shan, Seth Levine
