| 20120037090 | AUTOMATIC HEADGATE - A headgate including pair of upright frame members with a pair of weight members disposed therein which are connected to a pair of stanchions operable to move from an open position to a closed position by pivoting linkages. A release mechanism simultaneously releases the weight members from a first position such that gravity causes the weight members to move from the first position to a second position located at a lower height than the first position upon receiving a signal from a tripping mechanism which automatically detects the presence of an animal, wherein the release of the weight members causes the pair of stanchions to move from an open position, which allows an animal to pass therethrough, to a closed position, which causes the stanchions to close so as to confine the animal. | 02-16-2012 |

| 20080287207 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MEASURING A GOLFER'S BALL STRIKING PARAMETERS | 11-20-2008 |
| 20110028247 | METHOD FOR PREDICTING A GOLFER'S BALL STRIKING PERFORMANCE - A method for a predicting golfer's performance is disclosed herein. The method inputs the pre-impact swing properties of a golfer obtained from a CMOS imaging system, a plurality of mass properties of a first golf club, and a plurality of mass properties of a first golf ball into a rigid body code. Ball launch parameters are generated from the rigid body. The ball launch parameters, a plurality of atmospheric conditions and lift and drag properties of the golf ball are inputted into a trajectory code. This trajectory code is used to predict the performance of a golf ball if struck by the golfer with the golf club under the atmospheric conditions. The method can then predict the performance of the golf ball if struck by the golfer with a different golf club. The method and system of the present invention predict the performance of the golf ball without the golfer actually striking the golf ball. | 02-03-2011 |
