| 20110157600 | OPTICAL WAVE-FRONT RECOVERY FOR ACTIVE AND ADAPTIVE IMAGING CONTROL - An optical telescope system, method of actively, adaptively providing optical control to an array of articulated mirrors in a sparse aperture in the optical telescope system and a computer program product therefor. Array apertures are selected sequentially for imaging. Each aperture is temporally modulating at a unique/different frequency and, simultaneously, focal plane images are detected for each array aperture with known and separable temporal dependencies. The images are processed for the current set of said focal plane images to detect an image wavefront. The feeding back wavefront errors are fed back to aperture actuators for controlling the array. | 06-30-2011 |
| 20100178680 | ROTATABLE PERFUSED TIME VARYING ELECTROMAGNETIC FORCE BIOREACTOR AND METHOD OF USING THE SAME - A rotatable perfused time varying electromagnetic force bioreactor with a rotatable perfusable culture chamber and a time varying electromagnetic force source operatively connected to the rotatable perfusable culture chamber. In use, the rotatable perfused time varying electromagnetic force bioreactor supplies a time varying electromagnetic force to the rotatable perfusable culture chamber of the rotatable perfused time varying electromagnetic force bioreactor to expand cells contained therein. | 07-15-2010 |
| 20090101557 | Device and method for Producing Medical Grade Water - A device for producing medical grade water in spacecrafts has a heat exchange unit which initially heats a water supply before being channeled to a membrane filter module which separates the water supply into liquid retentate and purified gaseous permeate. | 04-23-2009 |
