Title: Method for correcting the time delay in measuring agricultural yield
Inventor: ROMIER CHLOE
IPC: A01B79/00
Filed: 2012-06-26
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for processing a set of data collected by at least one sensor at successive points in the travel over a plot of land (1) of at least one vehicle (2), each piece of said data having been recorded with a time delay with respect to the time at which the vehicle passes a given point of the plot, that is to say representing an item of information relating to the state of the vehicle at a time earlier than the recording time of said data, each piece of data being associated with a recording time and a geographic position of a point known as a measuring point at this recording time, and being provided by geolocation means. The method comprises a phase of estimating an optimal delay value by minimizing a level of projection of a three-dimensional map of values measured at each geographic point, and of correcting the measured data by this delay.

Title: Dispenser use monitor
Inventor: WEGELIN JACKSON W
IPC: G06K19/07
Filed: 2012-06-20
Abstract: A dispenser use monitor provides a housing configured to be removably attached to a portable dispenser, such as a soap dispenser. The housing includes a controller that stores one or more reference ID codes that match the tag ID codes associated with each of one or more data tags. The data tags are used to identify predetermined areas in which the portable dispenser is to be used. Thus, as the use monitor is brought into proximity with each data tag, indicating that the portable dispenser has been used in the associated area, the use monitor validates the reference ID codes if it matches the tag ID code of the particular data tag. In addition, an indicator displays the remaining number of reference ID codes that have not been validated, thereby providing a reminder to the user of the portable dispenser of the progress of their job completion.

Inventor: JACK DAVID A
IPC: G06F17/50
Filed: 2013-03-20
Abstract: Method and system are disclosed for characterizing and quantifying composite laminate structures. The method and system take a composite laminate of unknown ply stack composition and sequence and determine various information about the individual plies, such as ply stack, orientation, microstructure, and type. The method and system can distinguish between weave types that may exhibit similar planar stiffness behaviors, but would produce different failure mechanisms. Individual ply information may then be used to derive the laminate bulk properties from externally provided constitutive properties of the fiber and matrix, including extensional stiffness, bending-extension coupling stiffness, bending stiffness, and the like. The laminate bulk properties may then be used to generate a probabilistic failure envelope for the composite laminate. This provides the ability to perform non-destructive QA to ensure that individual lamina layup was accomplished according to specifications, and results may be used to identify a numerous laminate properties beyond purely structural.
