Patent number: 12250478Abstract: Techniques to provide a low-power single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) image. An example imaging device includes a SPAD array having a plurality of pixels configured to detect electromagnetic radiation, and a processing device configured to deactivate, based on an event count, a pixel of the SPAD array for a remaining duration of a first detection frame of the SPAD array. The pixel can remain deactivated for the remaining duration, and the remaining duration can span from a deactivation time until an end of the first SPAD frame. The processing device can be further configured to reactivate the pixel in a subsequent detection frame of the SPAD array.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2022Date of Patent: March 11, 2025Assignee: FAIRCHILD IMAGING, INC.Inventors: Xianmin Yi, Chien-Horn Lu, Shanli Hu, Edmond Tam, Angel Rogelio Lopez, William Tian

Publication number: 20170220998Abstract: A system may generate action requests for a service management system. A user preference data store may contain electronic records for a set of users, including, for example, at least one user preference value. A back-end application computer server may receive, from a remote user mobile device, an indication associated with an event. The server may then determine at least one location coordinate associated with the event and select a sub-set of service providers from a service provider data store based on the location and at least one user preference value. The server may generate an action request for a designated one of the sub-set of service providers in accordance with logic based rules and transmit information about the action request to the designated service provider and the remote user mobile device. The server may receive an action request update and transmit a modified action request to another service provider.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 17, 2017Publication date: August 3, 2017Inventors: Gregory William Horn, Ryan Owen Denning

Patent number: 9587823Abstract: A laminar flow jet for a surface mix gas burner that provides increased stability, adjustability, and control over flame chemistries and characteristics. The present invention utilizes a novel shape, typically created by a tube having a cross-sectional shape and inserting it into a faceplate cutout, or conduit, having another cross-sectional shape. This nesting of one shape inside another promotes laminar gas flow and produces desired effects. Tubes may also be placed under the faceplate provided they maintain fluid communication with the conduits. Further, a burner is constructed with adjacent gas delivery tubes of different cross-sectional shapes which are mechanically held in place radially. The tubes touch in a longitudinal direction at points along their respective inner and outer dimensions, achieving axial alignment and preserving the necessary laminar gas flow.Type: GrantFiled: July 26, 2013Date of Patent: March 7, 2017Inventors: Wallace Horn, William Horn

Patent number: 8957342Abstract: A sealed solenoid, magnetically operated electric power switch is suitable for use as capacitor, line and load switch operating at transmission and distribution voltages that includes no dynamically moving seals through the sealed container housing the contactor portion of the switch. The sealed solenoid switch includes a magnetically operated drive system with an actuator that magnetically couples across the container wall to avoid the use of a moving or sliding seal as part of the drive system. The sealed solenoid switch may also include a ballast resistor and resistor contact located inside the sealed container to avoid another seal as part of the ballast system. A magnetic latch holds the switch in a closed position, and a spring holds the switch in the closed position, to avoid the need for an energizing current to maintain the switch in either position.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 2013Date of Patent: February 17, 2015Assignee: Southern States LLCInventors: Neil McCord, Joseph R. Rostron, Frank Blalock, Donald Swing, Roy Alexander, Kent Davey, William Horn

Publication number: 20150020517Abstract: A vibration suppressor is disclosed that is configured for use in a system having a hose under pulsating hydraulic pressure. The pulsating hydraulic pressure causes vibration of the hose at the pulsation frequency. The vibration suppressor is applied to the hose and is constructed to have a resonant frequency slightly below the pulsation frequency where the pulsating hydraulic pressure is at a peak level, due to, but not limited to, the existence of a resonance in the hydraulic system.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 9, 2012Publication date: January 22, 2015Applicant: International Engine Intellectual Property Company ,LLCInventors: Ying Ren, Artur Alojzy Dudzik, Jeffery Alan Wernimont, Colin William Horn

Patent number: 8240872Abstract: An interior lighting system for a security safe is taught which incorporates a power supply that is located within the safe and converts alternating current power to low voltage direct current. An electrical switch is in communication with the power supply and mechanically interfaces with the safe door boltworks which energize the lighting system when the safe door is unlocked and opened. A number of LED lights are disposed within the door edge and connected to the switch. When the door is hinged open the LED lights are energized through the switch and illuminate the interior of the safe until the door is closed and bolted.Type: GrantFiled: January 21, 2009Date of Patent: August 14, 2012Assignee: Cannon Safe Inc.Inventor: William A.

Patent number: 8104928Abstract: An adjustable direction LED puck light is disclosed that incorporates an inner bowl shaped with external radial sides, an open top and a closed bottom incorporating an outwardly extending square post. A printed circuit board, including an LED cluster, is mounted in the interior of the inner bowl. A transparent lens is snapped into the open top of the inner bowl directly above the printed circuit board. An outer bowl body is, shaped inside with reversed internal radial sides in mirror image of the inner bowl. The inner bowl assembly is nested within the outer bowl body, permitting the inner bowl to be angularly reposition therebetween. A bezel is attached within an open top of the outer bowl body permitting the inner bowl to be manually repositioned at an angle to direct light emitting from the LED cluster in a desired direction. Mounting provisions permit the outer bowl body to be attached onto a fixed surface that contains a hole provided to receive the LED puck light.Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2009Date of Patent: January 31, 2012Assignee: Cannon Safe Inc.Inventor: William A.
