Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090243433Apparatus, system and method for converting vibrational energy to electric potential - An apparatus, a system and a method convert vibrational energy to electric potential. The apparatus, the system and the method use vibrational energy to provide voltage to an electrical device. A piezoelectric element converts the vibrational energy to electric potential. The vibrational energy allows the electrical device to recharge a battery or function without a battery and/or exterior electrical wires.10-01-2009

20100063746SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING A RISK RATING PROFILE OF SPECIFIC HORTICULTURAL ASSET PLANT SPECIES, INDIVIDUAL PLANTS AND A STAND OF PLANTS - In one embodiment, the invention may provide a system and method for determining the risk factor of individual and groups of plants by identifying a plant. Various characteristics about the plant or group of plants may then be collected and uploaded into a database. Local environmental characteristics may also be uploaded to determine the likelihood that certain adverse environmental factors may affect the plant. The uploaded characteristics of the plant and environmental factors may then be compared with predefined ratings associated with each characteristic and the ratings can be used to determine if the plant or group of plants might fail. Using this information, a risk factor for the property on which the plant or group of plants are located may be determined.03-11-2010
