David J. Crisp, London GB

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080315563Transporter - A transporter for an infant comprising first and second means to receive an infant in the transporter, the means moveable between a first, closed orientation unsuitable for receiving an infant, and a second, open orientation for receiving an infant. The transporter further comprises first and second wheels disposed respectively at first and second ends of the transporter, the second wheel movable between a first operative position providing for a first wheel base and a second operative position providing for a second wheel base, wherein the first wheelbase is different from said second wheelbase, and wherein the second means is movable between the first and second orientations responsive to movement of the second wheel between the first and second operative positions.12-25-2008

20100026563ANTENNA SYSTEM AND RADAR SYSTEM INCORPORATING THE SAME - An antenna system comprising an array of antenna elements, the array comprising a plurality of groups of antenna elements wherein each group comprises one or more antenna elements arranged in series, and wherein the system further comprises first phase-control means for performing the function of introducing respective phase-shifts to transmitted or received signals passed to or received from each of said groups to provide beamforming and second phase-control means for performing said function with respect to a sub-set of said groups. An antenna system of the invention allows two radar beam patterns having different spatial characteristics to be generated using a single antenna system. The invention also provides a radar system incorporating an antenna system of the invention.02-04-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090201820METHOD FOR PREDICTING A FAULT IN A SECURITY SYSTEM - A method for predicting a fault in a wireless communication path between at least one transmitter and a receiver. The method comprises detecting an initial value of a characteristic of a reception signal or an initial value of a characteristic of a wireless communication path, calculating a running average of the same characteristic for preset period of time, comparing the initial value with the calculated running average; and displaying an indication based upon an analysis of the comparing. The indication is transmitted to a remote site for response. The characteristic can be signal strength, noise and a S/N ratio.08-13-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090322527SERVER BASED DISTRIBUTED SECURITY SYSTEM - A security system including one or more sensors for detecting a predetermined security event. One or more communications modules include a transmitting device for communicating with the sensor and transmitting an alert signal of the security event. A remotely located computer system controls the communications between the transmitting device of the communication module for receiving a signal from and transmitting to the communications module. After receiving the alert signal, the computer system communicates an alarm signal.12-31-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20080266081Wireless transceiver management system and method - A method of managing data communications in a wireless security system. A message is transmitted from a fixed location security device and received by at least two transceivers. Each transceiver analyzes the received message to generate RSSI data. A digital message including the RSSI data is sent from each transceiver via a wired connection to a control panel, which analyzes the RSSI data from each transceiver to determine which transceiver generated the highest RSSI. The control panel then designates data exchange responsibility to the transceiver with the highest RSSI. That transceiver will have responsibility for acknowledging messages from that security device and send data to that security device from the control panel. A transceiver will be allocated to a portable security device if it is the first to receive the wireless message rather than on RSSI data.10-30-2008

20100313995ROBOT FOR ORCHESTRATING MICROFLUIDICS EXPERIMENTS - A robot is described for automatically performing microfluidic experiments that are often complex and repetitive. The robot includes a system for initiating the communication of off-chip fluids, such as fluorocarbons, and off-chip materials, such as proteins. The communication of off-chip fluids and off-chip materials is further guided to a microfluidics device vis-à-vis a Z-head robot, an XY plane robot, and an interface assembly that creates a fluid-tight joint for communicating the off-chip fluids and off-chip materials into the microfluidics device for conduction of microfluidics experiments.12-16-2010
