| 20090295602 | METHODS AND APPARATUS TO ASSIST PILOTS UNDER CONDITIONS IN WHICH SPATIAL DISORIENTATION MAY BE PRESENT - Embodiments include systems and methods for assisting a pilot of an aircraft. The system includes a near-eye display and a processing subsystem. The near-eye display includes a transparent display panel that is adapted to be oriented in proximity to at least one eye of the pilot. The processing subsystem is adapted to receive aircraft data that indicates an attitude of the aircraft, and to determine whether the aircraft data indicates a potential spatial disorientation situation. When the aircraft data indicates the potential spatial disorientation situation, the processing system is adapted to cause the near-eye display to display an exterior display indicator overlying at least a portion of the windshield of the aircraft. The exterior display indicator includes a visual representation of an earth-based reference, and the exterior display indicator is oriented to indicate the attitude of the aircraft. | 12-03-2009 |
| 20090315564 | LOW COST CURRENT AND TEMPERATURE SENSOR - A battery health or prognosis system may employ a ferrite disc embedded in a printed wiring board (PWB) to perform both a battery current sensing role and a temperature sensing role. The ferrite disc may be surrounded with a coil that may be comprised of surface conductors and electrically conductive vias of the PWB. Excursions of coil current may be produced to generate observable hysterisis loops in the ferrite disc. The generated hysterisis loops may be compared to a temperature-dependent family of hysterisis loops for the magnetic material from which the ferrite disc is constructed. A processor mounted on the PWB may collect and process outputs from a Hall-effect sensor to develop both temperature and battery current information to produce a prognosis for the battery. | 12-24-2009 |
| 20090325131 | OPERATOR ASSISTANCE METHODS AND SYSTEMS - Embodiments include systems and methods for assisting an operator (e.g., a pilot) of an apparatus (e.g., an aircraft) that includes a control compartment (e.g., a cockpit). The system includes a near-eye display and a processing subsystem. The near-eye display includes a transparent display panel and is adapted to be worn on a head of the operator. The processing subsystem is adapted to receive layout information defining a physical layout of one or more operational components located within the control compartment. The processing subsystem is further adapted to determine a location for a display indicator on the transparent display panel, where the location is determined to appear to the operator to be in proximity to an operational component. The processing subsystem is further adapted to generate a display signal to cause the near-eye display to display the display indicator in the location. | 12-31-2009 |
| 20100039353 | NEAR-TO-EYE DISPLAY ARTIFACT REDUCTION SYSTEM AND METHOD - A near-to-eye (NTE) display system and method are provided for reducing artifact display in a NTE display that is worn, at least partially, on a viewer's head. The movement of the NTE display is sensed while displaying an image that comprises individual content frames on the NTE display. A characteristic of the individual content frames of the displayed image is varied based on the sensed movement. | 02-18-2010 |
| 20100283919 | METHODS FOR REDUCING ARTIFACTS IN NEAR-TO-EYE DISPLAY SYSTEMS - Provided are methods and systems for reducing visual distortion in near-to-eye (“NTE”) visual display systems that is worn, at least partially, on a viewer's head. The movement rate of the viewer's head is sensed while an image that comprises individual content frames is displayed on the NTE using a vertically based raster scan. A characteristic of the raster scan is varied to mitigate distortion of the content frames due to the viewer's head movement. | 11-11-2010 |
| 20100295754 | SYSTEMS, APPARATUS AND FAST METHODS FOR ALIGNING IMAGES TO EXTERNAL MARKERS IN NEAR-TO-EYE DISPLAY SYSTEMS - Provided are systems, apparatus, and methods for registering an image within a defined area within the confines of a user. The area is defined by one or more information markers that may be active or passive markers. A sensor operable to detect the information markers is rigidly attached to a motion tracker which is aligned and calibrated relative to the information markers and by detecting at least one of the information markers causes the virtual object image to appear to remain within the defined area. | 11-25-2010 |

| 20080267889 | Cosmetic Cooling Composition - The invention relates to a cosmetic composition having a cooling effect, particularly a clear gel or a spray. The composition has a long-lasting cooling effect of about 8 hours and comprises a cooling complex consisting of 0.05-0.15% Menthyl Lactate, 0.1-0.2% Menthyl PCA and 0.05-0.2% Ethyl Menthane Carboxamide. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20080317686 | Cosmetic Composition for Skin Care - The invention relates to the use of siloxanes for emulsifiers for cosmetic compositions for skin care as well as cosmetic emulsions comprising such emulsifiers. The composition comprises an aminofunctional organopolysiloxane for W/O emulsions, O/W emulsions and multiple emulsions. The emulsions are formed easily, are very stable and needs not to add electrolytes. | 12-25-2008 |
