Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110148592ANTENNA ASSEMBLY FOR A TAG READER - An antenna assembly includes a stand having a convex outer surface positioned to intercept and engage a vehicle tire as the vehicle tire passes over the convex stand surface. The height and contour of the convex stand surface slows the rotational rate of the vehicle tire, and thereby a transmitting device carried by the tire, to a preferred rotational read rate as the vehicle tire passes over the convex surface. One or more antenna members mount to the stand proximal to the convex surface, each antenna having a directionally aimed tilted antenna field positioned to continuously receive data transmission from the electronic transmitting device as the vehicle tire passes over the convex stand surface at the reduced rotational read rate.06-23-2011
20110148593METHOD FOR READING A VEHICLE TAG WITHIN A READ STATION - A method of reading a data transmission from an electronic transmitting device mounted to a vehicle tire assembly includes: positioning a convex upper surface of a stand to intercept a vehicle tire of the vehicle tire assembly; establishing rotational engagement between the vehicle tire and the convex upper surface of the stand to slow the speed of the vehicle and reduce the rotational rate at which the vehicle tire rotates to a targeted reduced rotational read rate; and directing an antenna field from at least one antenna toward an approach path (and at least one antenna toward the exiting path) of the vehicle tire to the convex upper surface and lower surface of the stand to receive data transmission from the electronic transmitting device as the vehicle tire passes over the stand upper surface then down the lower surface at the reduced rotational read rate.06-23-2011

20110068702SOLID STATE LIGHTING APPARATUS WITH CONTROLLABLE BYPASS CIRCUITS AND METHODS OF OPERATION THEREOF - A lighting apparatus includes a string with a plurality of serially-connected light emitting device sets, each set comprising at least one light emitting device. The apparatus further includes at least one controllable bypass circuit configured to variably bypass current around at least one light emitting device of a set of the plurality of light emitting device sets responsive to a control input. The control input may include, for example, a temperature input, a string current sense input and/or an adjustment input. The control input may be varied, for example, to adjust a color point of the string.03-24-2011

20080285628COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR REMOTELY CONTROLLED VEHICLES - A remote controller and a remotely controlled vehicle employ, at least in part, frequency hopping spread spectrum communications to communicate information between them. The remote controller transmits information for controlling the remotely controlled vehicle on substantially all of the frequencies of a hop sequence established by the two devices, but only transmits information indicative of the established communications between the devices on a subset of the frequencies of the sequence, the subset of frequencies comprising less than substantially all of the frequencies of the sequence. Additionally, the remote controller continues to transmit the information for controlling the remotely controlled vehicle on substantially all of the frequencies of the sequence even if the remotely controlled vehicle loses communication with the remote controller. A mathematical function is applied to identifiers associated with each device to generate an identifier representative of the established communications link between them.11-20-2008
