Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110138886Refrigerated Transport System Testing - A method involves inspecting/testing a refrigeration system. One or more conduits or other components cooperate with the compressor, heat rejection heat exchanger, expansion device, and heat absorption heat exchanger to define a refrigerant flowpath. The inspecting/testing method comprises placing a plurality of collars over respective joints along the refrigerant flowpath. The collars each define a space that may be exposed to one or more sensors. Based upon input from the sensors, the presence or absence of leaks at the joints is determined.06-16-2011

20090201361Panoramic Camera With Multiple Image Sensors Using Timed Shutters - The present invention relates to the field of panoramic still and motion photography. In a first embodiment, a camera apparatus for panoramic photography includes a first image sensor positioned to capture a first image. The first image sensor has a rolling-shutter readout arranged in portrait orientation. The camera apparatus also includes second image sensor positioned to capture a second image. The second image sensor has a rolling-shutter readout arranged in portrait orientation. Finally, the camera apparatus includes a controller configured to signal the second image sensor to start capturing the second image before the first image sensor finishes capturing the first image. At least a portion of the first image is in front of the second image relative to a forward direction of the camera apparatus.08-13-2009
