  • Publication number: 20120270186
    Abstract: An essential element of sharpshooter training is the reduction of quivering of the firearm. Such quivering or jitter is caused by inadvertent movement of the shooter while holding the firearm. Embodiments of the present invention comprise a motion sensing device that is attached to the firearm to produce visual and aural feedback to the shooter on the degree of gun shake. The shooter can thus practice different shooting stances, muscle control, and breathing techniques, and use the feedback from the gun shake sensor to evaluate and adjust these parameters. This training aid improves firearm accuracy without the need for stands, stabilizers, or other aids. The training aid can be rapidly attached to, and removed from any firearm.

  • Publication number: 20120180367
    Abstract: A laser beam generating module capable of projecting a series of concentric circles of light is connected to the frame of a firearm in substantial alignment with the gun barrel. The laser beam can be actuated on demand, and the resultant pattern will be projected onto the target. Due to the intrinsic fan angle of the spatially projected beams, the circles displayed on the target will appear to be spaced further apart when the target is further away, and appear to be spaced closer when the target is nearer. By selecting a suitable laser fan angle, it is possible to get an immediate visual indication of the approximate range to the target increasing the potential accuracy.

  • Patent number: 8173390
    Abstract: The present invention features a method for facilitating the fermentation of a high solids composition. The method involves subjecting the high solids composition to granular starch hydrolyzing enzyme during the fermentation process to provide a steady source of glucose. Moreover, the instant method is carried out under reduced pressure to selectively remove volatile components such as ethanol and water from the fermentation vessel.

  • Patent number: 7920489
    Abstract: Embodiments herein provide full duplex operation (i.e., simultaneous receiving and transmitting of data over a network) of a network device of a computer system. Receiving and transmitting threads are used for receiving and transmitting data using the network device, the threads requiring access to an associated data structure to use the network device. Conventionally, the data structure is locked to allow access to only one thread at a time to protect against information inconsistencies in the data structure. Some embodiments remove the locking feature of the data structure to provide simultaneous access to the data structure by the receiving and transmitting threads, and thus allow full duplex operation of the network device. Protections against information inconsistencies in the data structure may be provided, including providing separate receiving and transmitting information sections in the data structure and assurances that only one transmitting thread accesses the data structure at any time.

  • Publication number: 20110006900
    Abstract: This invention provides a system and apparatus that is able to authenticate and prevent illegal manufacturing and unauthorized operation of disposable bioprocess components. This invention utilizes a ferro-electric random access memory chip (FRAM) chip to store error-correctable information on a RFID tag attached to the disposable bioprocess components, where the error-correctable information is written in sequence into the memory chip, so that the redundant information can remain in the chip when the RFID tag and disposable bioprocess component is gamma-sterilized. Also, this invention includes a method for authenticating the disposable bioprocess component that reduces liability in that a counterfeit poor quality disposable component is not used on the hardware so the user will not file an unjustified complaint.

  • Patent number: 7862992
    Abstract: One or more set point values are generated by a dynamic fermentation controller for one or more of temperature, pH, and enzyme dosage for a fermentation system. The one or more set point values are output to one or more controllers of the fermentation system. The generation of the one or more set point values and the outputting of the one or more set point values is repeated until a change in conditions in the fermentation system is detected.

  • Publication number: 20100206780
    Abstract: Methods, devices, and compositions relating to processed grain products are disclosed for ground corn flour, soybean meal, cottonseed meal, and wheat middlings. An exemplary method disclosed is a fiber separation process for the ethanol industry corn products of Distillers Dried Grains (DDG) and Distillers Dried Grains with Solubles (DDGS) resulting from the widely used dry grind technology. A disclosed process and apparatus allows the removal and separate recovery of fiber-reduced products with expanded potential for use as a non-ruminant feed product in addition to the removal and separate recovery of a fiber-enriched product. The fiber enriched and fiber reduced products each have uses in the feed industry. The specific processes, devices, and compositions disclosed are readily adaptable to feed mills.
