Abstract: A method and food product for a stuffed fritter food product. The method or food product may include a first food material formed into a crust with a cavity at a middle portion of the first food material. The method or food product may also include a second food material located within the cavity, where the shredded potato crust has a minimal thickness to contain the second food material and restrict the second food material from leaking outside the shredded potato crust. The crust may be formed by a first nozzle of an extruder device and the second food material may be inserted into the middle portion of the crust by a second nozzle of the extruder device.

Abstract: The invention discloses microorganism cell culture conditions that result in increased cellular and media concentrations of a biological pigment. The invention has applications in use as a natural food coloring, as antioxidants in the food supplement industries, in the nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, and cosmeceutical industries, and a non-toxic ink. The method results in pigment that is relatively easy to separate from the microorganism culture.

Abstract: Motion detection devices and systems are described herein. One motion detection device includes an inertial measurement unit (IMU) configured to measure velocity, orientation, and gravitational forces of the motion detection device and a computing component. The computing component can be configured to determine spectrum parameters of a mobile vehicle associated with the motion detection device using measurements from the IMU, determine IMU orientation parameters using measurements from the IMU, and estimate motion of the mobile vehicle using the spectrum parameters, the IMU orientation parameters, measurements from the IMU, and a motion estimation function.

Abstract: A sonar system is provided with the system having comparatively reduced power consumption, data bandwidth and data storage requirements. A sensor array of the system is configured to a sleep mode, low-resolution mode and high-resolution mode. In the sleep mode, all sonar sensors are configured in the mode and no acoustic signals are detected or processed. In the low-resolution mode, a limited number of sonar sensors are powered and acoustic signals received by the sensors are processed with reduced bandwidth and dynamic range, and then stored on a data storage device. In the high-resolution mode, the acoustic signals detected by the sonar sensors are processed with full signal bandwidth and dynamic range and then stored on the data storage device. A 10 bit mu-Law encoding scheme is used to reduce the amplitude scale of measurement or dynamic range of the digitized acoustic signals.

Abstract: A marine acoustic array employs a plurality of sections connected together sequentially with the outer surfaces of said sections having a non-smooth configuration to create a water flow along the length of the array as it is towed through a water layer that causes sensors within the array to provide outputs having improved signal-to-noise ratios.

Abstract: A marine seismic streamer section for a towed underwater streamer containing a buoyancy regulating fill liquid and the usual hydrophones, strain cables, signal wires and the like housed in a generally cylindrical tubular jacket sealed at its ends against loss of fill liquid and containing a depth sensor for producing electrical signals indicative of the depth of the streamer. The sensor is in a rigid housing whose interior is connected by a tube to a valved calibrating chamber having a valve member normally communicating the interior of the depth sensor housing to the fill liquid pressure conditions in the jacket. The chamber has an external access port normally closed by a plug, and the valve member is movable by a probe inserted through the port when the plug is removed and a source of gauged pressure connected to the access port to subject the interior of the depth sensor housing to the gauged pressure source.
