20100321553Glare blocking camcorder/camera stabilizing eye level viewfinder device and method - A glare blocking viewfinder device includes a shadow box with a lens at a first end and an attachment mechanism at a second end adapted to detachably mount the device on a monitor screen of a camera. This enables a user to observe an image-bearing surface of the screen by looking at the image-bearing surface through the lens. The lens has a predetermined focal length and the depth dimension of the shadow box is substantially equal to this focal length. The attachment mechanism upon mounting the device to the monitor screen provides a substantially rigid structure. The user presses his or her eye against the lens to view the monitor screen through the lens and shadow box and points the camera at a subject, keeping the camera on the subject by using the device as a viewfinder. The user holds the camera with one hand and the attached device with the other hand. The device is collapsible and conveniently fits into a pocket of the user when not being used.12-23-2010

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110169684System for sensing aircraft and other objects - A system for sensing aircraft and other objects uses bistatic radar with spread-spectrum signals transmitted from remotely located sources such as aircraft flying at very high altitudes or from a satellite constellation. A bistatic spread spectrum radar system using a satellite constellation can be integrated with a communications system and/or with a system using long baseline radar interferometry to validate the digital terrain elevation database. The reliability and safety of TCAS and ADS-B are improved by using the signals transmitted from a TCAS or ADS-B unit as a radar transmitter with a receiver used to receive reflections. Aircraft and other objects using spread spectrum radar are detected by using two separate receiving systems. Cross-Correlation between the outputs of the two receiving systems reveals whether a noise signal is produced by the receiving systems themselves or is coming from the outside.07-14-2011

20120179755Deliberative Polling Incorporating Ratings By A Random Sample - System and method facilitating group discussion of a body of information, wherein the general population of the group can comment on the information, and wherein a sample of the population rates the comments of the general population. This can reduce the disproportional effects of a highly mobilized faction on a deliberative process. According to some aspects, a second rating can be provided by members of the general population. This can be used to communicate or quantify the effects of disproportionate mobilization. Optionally, comments can be moderated to reduce the information burden on the deliberation due to excessive low-quality commenting. Expert comments can also be incorporated to better inform the general population on a topic, facilitating a more efficient process. The system and method may be implemented as an interactive web forum or debate.07-12-2012
