Patent CA-2632584-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FRANK DAVID L
IPC: G08B1/08
Filed: 2006-11-30
Abstract: A radiation, explosives, and special materials, detection and identification system includes a housing supporting one or more gamma sensors and one or more solid-state neutron sensors proximate to container contents under examination.  The system collects radiation data from the sensors and compares the collected data to one or more stored spectral images representing one or more isotopes to identify one or more isotopes present. The identified one or more isotopes present are corresponded to possible materials or goods that they represent.  The possible materials or goods are compared with the manifest relating to the container to confirm the identity of materials or goods contained in the container or to detect and/or identify unauthorized materials or goods in the container. A battery powered sensor arrangement is also disclosed.
Patent CA-2633579-A1 (CA)

Abstract: This invention is a major improvement on the current vehicle mobile advertising system.  There are few options currently been offered on the market from back-lit printed plastic, magnetic stickers, hub caps, and scrolling LEDs. These systems work well but they often incur much higher cost over long period of time, to update these older systems one will need to reprint, re-install the signage over and over again, producing wasted materials, time and energy.  Combining the usage of latest digital signage technology we are able to eliminate this higher incurred cost, and with LCD  screens they are proven to be more effective medium of communication.   To use this type of technology in the outdoor environment produced few problems, 1. LCD  screens are sensitive to temperature changes, to solve this problem a continuous ventilation system with liquid bearing is added to the casing to provide cooling and ventilation of humidity. Custom made heating pads are added behind the screen for cold temperature operations to prevent LCD  screen freeze ups. 2. Weather proofing the system against rain, snow and dust.  This problem was solved using an ultra strong Aluminum casing to enclose the sensitive electronics; with 6 mm of tempered glass this creates a water proof environment inside the casing. 3. To reduce the weight of the system using Aluminum as constructive material. This has reduced the total weight of the working unit to 18 kg, which makes it safer and easier to be mounted on the roof top of a vehicle.   The system itself is connected to a media player located inside the vehicle through VGA  cable, the display system is not networked in any way, therefore reduces any chance of interference with vehicle's electronic system or GPS devices. Playback of the device is through a compact flash memory card, which can be updated quickly.

Abstract: A method of determining the stuck point in a bore hole is provided. The method employs a device, such as an inductor or coil (19), for writing magnetic marks into the bore hole casing. The device is incorporated into a retrieval tool (16) so that when a decision is taken to back off from the bore hole and recover any down hole equipment, the magnetic marks can be written on the casing of the bore hole as the retrieval tool is lowered into place. As the retrieval tool is raised in the bore hole, lifting the down hole equipment towards the surface, the magnetic marks are read using a three dimensional magnetic field sensor disposed either in the fishing tool or in the down hole apparatus itself.
