Title: Microstructuring optical wave guide devices with femtosecond optical pulses
Inventor: SEZERMAN OMUR M
IPC: C03C25/6208
Filed: 2003-07-31
Granted: 2011-06-07
Abstract: The present invention is directed to the creation of zones of permanently altered refractive index characteristics in glass waveguiding devices, including optical fibers and optical waveguides pre-existed in a glass substrate. Such zones are created in glass using a very high intensity laser beam which is produced by focussing the light output from an ultrafast pulsed laser at a predetermined target region in the glass. The preferred laser is a Ti:Sapphire amplified, frequency-doubled Erbium-doped fiber laser system, providing light pulses of approximately 100 femtosecond duration, each with an energy of between about 1 nanojoule and 1 millijoule, and preferably at a pulse repetition rate of between 500 Hz and 1 GHz. The repetition rate is chosen to deliver pulses faster than the thermal diffusion time over the dimensions of the volume element being modified

Granted: 2008-08-05
Abstract: A location of a vehicle is monitored using a predefined geo-fencing boundary within a coordinate system. An angle between a selected straight edge of the boundary and an axis of the coordinate system is determined, and the boundary is rotated by the angle such that the selected straight edge of the rotated boundary is parallel to the axis of the coordinate system. Subsequently, a set of coordinates associated with a particular location of a monitored device are identified and rotated by the previously determined angle. The rotated set of coordinates is then compared to the rotated boundary to determine a location of the monitored device with respect to the selected boundary. This information can be used to determine whether the vehicle remains within the predefined geo-fencing boundary.

Preferably, the distal end includes a prosthetic valve which is also concurrently implanted, but such a prosthetic valve may be implanted separately in the aorta. Also described are preferred methods of implanting such prosthetic devices.

Title: Self-calibrating shooter estimation
Inventor: BARGER JAMES E
IPC: F41H13/00
Filed: 2005-08-11
Granted: 2009-03-24
Abstract: Shockwave-only solutions that estimate shooter position and shot trajectory are extremely sensitive to the quality and precision of the shock time-of-arrival (TOA) measurements as well as the accuracy to which relative sensor positions in space are known. Over the life of a long-deployed system, the sensor positions can shift and the performance of some sensors may degrade for various reasons. Such changes can degrade the performance of deployed shooter estimation systems. Disclosed are systems and methods that can be used to calibrate sensor positions based on shock and muzzle measurements processed from a series of shots fired from a known location and in a known direction, as well as an approach for dynamically adapting shock-only shooter estimation algorithms to compensate for sensor degradation and/or loss.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a reactive polyurethane composition.
