Publication number: 20240124820Abstract: A microfluidic apparatus includes a microfluidic chip for MicroOrganoSpheres (MOS) generation. A first channel is defined in a surface of the microfluidic chip and includes: a droplet generation portion including an inlet portion, a junction between the inlet portion and an emulsifying fluid channel, and a chamber downstream of the junction. A cross-sectional area of the chamber is larger than that of the inlet portion. The first channel includes a polymerization portion downstream of the droplet generation portion, the polymerization portion having a serpentine configuration. The apparatus includes a cartridge for MOS demulsification, including: a collection container; a substrate disposed on the collection container, and a membrane disposed between the collection container and the surface of the substrate. A second channel is defined in the surface of the substrate that faces the collection container and is fluidically connected to an output of the polymerization portion of the first channel.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 11, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: Bradley Scott Thomas, Timothy A. Miller, Daniel Nelson, Raheel Samuel, George Robinson, Tyler Welder

Patent number: 9176218Abstract: A system and method for estimating the geographic location of an RF emitter which involves spatially filtering and receiving RF signals through use of a beamforming antenna array having multiple overlapping beams; detecting and measuring the time-of-arrival and amplitude of signals which are received in each beam through use of multiple synchronized receivers; identifying simultaneous detections of the same emitter which have occurred in adjacent beams; projecting the associated beamformed antenna gain patterns onto the underlying terrain for all instances in which there was a simultaneous detection in adjacent beams; weighting and accumulating all projections to form a Maximum Likelihood Surface (MLS); and finally, estimating the location of the emitter through analysis of the resulting MLS.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2012Date of Patent: November 3, 2015Assignee: BAE Systems Information and Electronic Systems Integration Inc.Inventors: Greg Fehling, Peter Dusaitis, Tyler Robinson

Publication number: 20120080538Abstract: A plant watering device includes a hollow rigid member which is substantially ring-shaped but has a gap between opposite closed ends of the member, the member having a lower surface with a plurality of spaced holes for dispensing water out of the hollow interior chamber in the member. A plurality of removable peg-like legs are configured to engage mounting sleeves on the lower surface of the member at one end and to be embedded in the soil or other medium surrounding the plant at the opposite end. A hose connector protrudes outwards from the ring-shaped member and can be connected to a water supply hose so that water is supplied into the hollow ring and flows through the chamber and out through the dispensing holes.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2011Publication date: April 5, 2012Inventors: Warren Tyler Reid, Tyler Robinson

Patent number: 8089406Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for detecting, identifying, and/or geolocating RF communications devices, such as FRS radios, high-power cordless phones, cellular phones, and other wireless communications receiver devices. The techniques exploit a vulnerability present in such devices, and can be used to detect (e.g., up to 300 meters) and geolocate (e.g., within +/?3 meters) those devices. The vulnerability is that receiver circuitry of the target devices emanate RF mixing products when flooded with RF energy or suitable stimulus signal. Such a response to a stimulus signal is unexpected or otherwise unintentional, as receiver circuitry is generally not designed to transmit information. The RF frequency, phase, and amplitude of these sideband RF responses can be used to detect and location the devices. The techniques work in the presence of interference, and can be used on devices that are powered on or off.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2009Date of Patent: January 3, 2012Assignee: BAE Systems Information and Electronic Systems Integration Inc.Inventors: Milton Janosky, Tyler Robinson, John J.

Patent number: 7978138Abstract: Techniques are disclosed that allow for the detection, identification, and direction finding of wireless emitters in a given multipath environment. For example, the techniques can be used to detect and identify a line of bearing (LOB) to an IEEE 802.11 emitter in a building or in an open field or along a roadside. In some cases, multiple LOBs can be used to geolocate the target emitter if so desired. The techniques can be embodied, for instance, in a handheld device that can survey the target environment, detect an IEEE 802.11 emitter and identify it by MAC address, and then precisely determine the LOB to that emitter. In some cases, a sample array of response data from the target emitter is correlated to a plurality of calibrated arrays having known azimuths to determine the LOB to the target emitter.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2009Date of Patent: July 12, 2011Assignee: BAE Systems Information and Electronic Systems Integration Inc.Inventors: Peter Dusaitis, Tyler Robinson, John J.

Patent number: 7978139Abstract: Techniques are disclosed that allow for the detection, identification, direction finding, and geolocation of wireless emitters in a given multipath environment. For example, the techniques can be used to detect and identify a line of bearing (LOB) to an IEEE 802.11 emitter in a building or in an open field or along a roadside. Multiple LOBs computed from different geographic locations can be used to geolocate the target emitter. The techniques can be embodied, for instance, in a vehicle-based device that can survey the target environment, detect an IEEE 802.11 emitter and identify it by MAC address, and then determine various LOBs to that emitter to geolocate the emitter. In some cases, a sample array of response data from the target emitter is correlated to a plurality of calibrated arrays having known azimuths to determine the LOB to the target emitter.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2009Date of Patent: July 12, 2011Assignee: BAE Systems Information and Electronic Systems Integration Inc.Inventors: Tyler Robinson, Peter Dusaitis, John J.
