Cameron D. Burley, Washington, DC US

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090102416Induction charger for portable battery-powered devices - A charging apparatus for a portable battery-powered device, including one or more of the following: a receiver that inserts into a charging jack of the portable battery-powered device, an outer casing that removably receives the portable battery-powered device and the receiver, and a battery cell contained within the outer casing that inductively charges the portable battery-powered device through the receiver. In various exemplary embodiments, the charging apparatus includes a charging base that inductively charges the battery cell when the outer casing is placed upon the charging base.04-23-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090110791Produce processor - A process for treating a farm product by heating and cooling, said treatment may include pasteurization of a product within the container in which they are to be sold by placing sealed containers containing the products within a process tank causing the products to move within the containers to enhance heat transfer into the product, holding the product at a desired temperature and then cooling the container while in the tank and distributing the containers to be sold.04-30-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100138171PRESSURE SENSING METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FLEXIBLE AERODYNAMIC SURFACES - An apparatus for measuring aerodynamic performance is provided, including a batten; a plurality of pressure differential sensors positioned on the batten, each of the sensors having a first port for exposure to a first pressure and a second port for exposure to a second pressure; and a plenum positioned so that each of the first ports is exposed to a pressure within the plenum. The batten is positioned on a sail. The sensors may be in communication with a computer and the sensors may be networked in an asymmetric daisy chain network for uplink communications from the computer and networked in parallel as a bus for downlink communications to the computer.06-03-2010

20100094863INTENTIONALITY MATCHING - A series of methods, systems and objects are disclosed permitting a person to judge their intentionality against a particular object or set of objects. This is achieved through the use of an object profile of a choice point including at least a set of discrete markers representing attributes of users; a set of discrete buckets associated with each discrete marker representing the attribute values of users; and a count associated with each bucket representing the value weighting of the choice point for that bucket, which object profile is stored on an electronic storage device.04-15-2010

20110218332Modulators of body weight, corresponding nucleic acids and proteins, and diagnostic and therapeutic uses thereof - The present invention relates generally to the control of body weight of animals including mammals and humans, and more particularly to materials identified herein as modulators of weight, and to the diagnostic and therapeutic uses to which such modulators may be put. In its broadest aspect, the present invention relates to the elucidation and discovery of nucleotide sequences, and proteins putatively expressed by such nucleotides or degenerate variations thereof, that demonstrate the ability to participate in the control of mammalian body weight. The nucleotide sequences in object represent the genes corresponding to the murine and human ob gene, that have been postulated to play a critical role in the regulation of body weight and adiposity. Preliminary data, presented herein, suggests that the polypeptide product of the gene in question function as a hormone. The present invention further provides nucleic acid molecules for use as molecular probes, or as primers for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification, i.e., synthetic or natural oligonucleotides. In further aspects, the present invention provides a cloning vector, which comprises the nucleic acids of the invention; and a bacterial, insect, or a mammalian expression vector, which comprises the nucleic acid molecules of the invention, operatively associated with an expression control sequence. Accordingly, the invention further relates to a bacterial or a mammalian cell transfected or transformed with an appropriate expression vector, and correspondingly, to the use of the above mentioned constructs in the preparation of the modulators of the invention. Also provided are antibodies to the ob polypeptide. Moreover, a method for modulating body weight of a mammal is provided. In specific examples, genes encoding two isoforms of both the murine and human ob polypeptides are provided.09-08-2011
