SUMMARY: The invention listed below is 

assigned to the United States 

Government as represented by the 

Secretary of the Navy and is available 

for licensing by the Department of the 

Navy. Patent application 10/943,648: 

Integrated Radar Optical Surveillance 

and Sighting System, a protection 

system integrating subsystems which 

may be controlled by non-proprietary, 

open architecture software, which, in 

turn, may accommodate the commonly

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Department of the Navy 

Notice of Availability of GovernmentOwned Invention; Available for 

Licensing

AGENCY: Department of the Navy, DOD.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: The Department of the Navy 

hereby gives notice of the general 

availability of licenses under the 

following pending patent. 

U.S. Patent Application Serial 

Number 10/959,764 entitled ‘‘ReducedOxygen Breathing Device’’ filed 7 

October 2004. The Reduced Oxygen 

Breathing Device (ROBD2) is an 

apparatus that dilutes the oxygen 

present in air to concentrations below 

21% by mixing the air with nitrogen. 

The purpose of this dilution is to 

simulate the reduced oxygen 

concentration available as one ascends 

in altitude. 

The ROBD2 is unique and different 

from previous devices that reduce the 

concentration of oxygen in room air via 

dilution with nitrogen gas in that it uses 

sophisticated gas regulating devices 

known as mass flow controllers. The 

ROBD also employs a gas extraction 

device as an independent component of 

the system that can separate nitrogen 

gas from air for use in the device.

DATES: Applications for a license may be 

submitted at any time from the date of 

this notice.

ADDRESSES: Submit license applications 

to the Office of Technology Transfer, 

Naval Medical Research Center, 503 

Robert Grant Ave, Silver Spring, MD 

20910–7500.
