Title: Surgical viewing system
Inventor: RICH DAVID B
IPC: A61B17/17
Filed: 2018-02-22
Abstract: A surgical viewing system including an X-ray source, a screw placing surgical tool, a detector, a fiducial marker, and an image correction system. The X-ray source creates a beam of radiation, and the surgical tool is coupled thereto. The X-ray detector detects an image, the detected image resulting from receiving a portion of the radiation. There is at least one fiducial marker coupled to a part of the surgical tool, the fiducial marker being radiopaque and blocking a portion of the beam of radiation from the detector to produce a profile on the detected image. The surgical tool has an axis of rotation and the fiducial marker is axially symmetric to the axis of rotation. The image correction system takes the detected image and produces a corrected image by using a shape of the profile of the fiducial marker and/or a location of the profile of the fiducial marker.

Abstract: A method of making a loop fastener product (10) features knitting, such as by circular knitting, a pile yarn (26) and one or more ground yarns (22) to form a stretchable knit fabric (12) having loops (18) of the pile yarn (26) extending from a knit ground (14), with the ground yarns (22) including polymers of differing melt temperatures. The knit fabric (12) is then held in a desired state while the fabric (12) is set by first applying sufficient heat to cause the lower melt temperature resin to flow into interstices of the fabric ground (14), and then allowing the fabric (12) to cool. The cooled fabric ground (14) is less stretchable in two orthogonal directions after setting than before setting, has a greater air permeability after setting than before setting, and has hook-engageable pile loops (18) extending from bound interstices.

Title: Multi-ghz guard sensor for detecting physical or electromagnetic intrusions of a guarded region
Inventor: JENNINGS WILLIAM
IPC: G08B13/12
Filed: 2018-10-22
Abstract: A guard sensor injects a multi-GHz (multi giga-bit) guard signal along a guard signal transmission path above an observable knee in the amplitude response of the path to define a guarded region and to detect physical or electromagnetic intrusions of that guarded region. At frequencies above the knee, the signal transmission path exhibits increasingly non-linear and even chaotic behavior that improves the overall sensitivity of the sensor and its ability to detect slight changes in the distributed transmission parameters that characterize circuit devices, signal paths and signals. The guarded region may be used to protect a combination of circuit devices, physical connections, interfaces, high and low frequency signal transmission paths and signals.
