| 20110209539 | Methods, Systems, and Apparatus for Processing Drill Tools - An exemplary method for optimizing drilling performance of a rotary drill tool is disclosed. According to the method, a rotary drill tool may be secured to an orienting member and a cutting element rotational axis of the rotary drill tool may be identified. Radial locations of a plurality of surface regions of the rotary drill tool may be measured relative to the cutting element rotational axis. At least one selected surface region from the plurality of measured surface regions may be modified such that the at least one selected surface region is located at a selected radial distance relative to the cutting element rotational axis. An exemplary method for grinding a down-hole drill tool is also disclosed. According to the method, a down-hole drill tool may be secured to a holding member in a substantially vertical orientation and portions of the down-hole drill tool may be ground using a grinding wheel. | 09-01-2011 |

| 20110085165 | System and Method for Combined Raman and LIBS Detection - A system and method for detection and identification of unknown samples using a combination of Raman and LIBS detection techniques. A first region of a sample and a second region of a sample are illuminated using structured illumination to thereby generate a first plurality of interacted photons and a second plurality of interacted photons. This first plurality and second plurality of interacted photons may be passed through a fiber array spectral translator device. Said first plurality of interacted photons are assessed using Raman spectroscopy to thereby generate a Raman data set. Said second plurality of interacted photons are assessed using LIBS spectroscopy to thereby generate LIBS data set. These data sets may be analyzed to identify the sample. These data sets may also be fused for further analysis. | 04-14-2011 |

| 20100271629 | Method and system for combined raman and libs detection - In one embodiment, the disclosure relates to a method for interrogating a sample by: illuminating a first region of the sample with a first illumination pattern to obtain a plurality of first sample photons; illuminating a second region of the sample with a second illumination pattern to obtain a plurality of second sample photons; processing the plurality of first sample photons to obtain a characteristic atomic emission of the first region and processing the plurality of second sample photons to obtain a Raman spectrum; and identifying the sample through at least one of the characteristic atomic emission of the first region or the Raman spectrum of the second region of the sample. | 10-28-2010 |
| 20110033082 | System and method for improved forensic analysis - The present disclosure provides for a system and method for analyzing questioned documents. A sample document is illuminated to thereby generate a first plurality of interacted photons. The first plurality of interacted photons are detected at a first detector to thereby generate a digital image. The digital image is analyzed to thereby identify at least one region of interest of the sample document. This region of interest is illuminated to thereby generate a second plurality of interacted photons. This second plurality of interacted photons are passed through a tunable filter and detected at a second detector to thereby generate a hyperspectral image representative of the region of interest. The hyperpsectral image may then be analyzed to evaluate changes to or differentiate different inks present in the sample document. Chemometric techniques such as k-means clustering, PCA, and/or PLSDA may also be applied. | 02-10-2011 |
