20110051144 | INTEGRATED RESONATING GYRO ACCELEROMETER IN A SEMICONDUCTOR SUBSTRATE - An integrated interferometric gyroscope and accelerometer device. An example device includes a cantilever beam, a package having a post connected to one end of the beam, a piezoresistor driver, a piezoresistor sensor, and a semiconductor interferometric optical gyro. The piezoresistor driver is incorporated within the beam at a first area proximate to the post. The driver electro-thermally resonates the beam. The piezoresistor sensor is incorporated within the beam at the first area. The sensor piezoresitively senses a signal that relates to an acceleration force out-of-plane of the beam. The semiconductor interferometric optical gyro is also incorporated within the beam at a second area of the beam. The gyro senses rotational motion about an axis approximately equivalent to the acceleration force out-of-plane of the beam. The gyro includes a waveguide, a laser source and a light detector. The beam is formed from a semiconductor substrate. | 03-03-2011 |
20140085624 | COAXIAL GYRO ACCELEROMETER IN A SEMICONDUCTOR SUBSTRATE - A coaxial gyro accelerometer device in a semiconductor substrate for simultaneously sensing coaxial linear and rotational forces. An exemplary device includes a resonating cantilever beam within a substrate and a package having a resonating cavity. The package supports the substrate while allowing the beam to resonate. The substrate also includes a piezoresistor driver, a piezoresistor sensor, and a semiconductor interferometric optical gyro. The piezoresistor driver and sensor are incorporated within the beam. The driver electrothermally resonates the beam. The sensor piezoresistively senses a signal that relates to an acceleration force out-of-plane of the beam. A waveguide of the semiconductor interferometric optical gyro is incorporated in the substrate around the beam. The gyro senses rotational motion about the axis that is the same as the acceleration vector (out-of-plane of the beam). The gyro also includes a laser source and a light detector. The beam is formed contiguously from the semiconductor substrate. | 03-27-2014 |

20110097189 | BOUNDARY LAYER EFFECT TURBINE - Described herein are embodiments of a boundary layer effect turbine and a hydrodynamic speed reducer. Described is a boundary layer effect turbine that utilizes the phenomena of the boundary layer to drive a turbine impeller that is made of a plurality of spaced disks oriented along a rotatable shaft. As operating fluid is directed over surfaces of the plurality of disks of the boundary layer effect turbine, energy is transferred from the fluid to the disks as a result of the adhesive and viscous properties of the fluid. | 04-28-2011 |

20130170541 | Video Compression Repository and Model Reuse - Systems and methods of improving video encoding/decoding efficiency may be provided. A feature-based processing stream is applied to video data having a series of video frames. Computer-vision-based feature and object detection algorithms identify regions of interest throughout the video datacube. The detected features and objects are modeled with a compact set of parameters, and similar feature/object instances are associated across frames. Associated features/objects are formed into tracks, and each track is given a representative, characteristic feature. Similar characteristic features are clustered and then stored in a model library, for reuse in the compression of other videos. A model-based compression framework makes use of the preserved model data by detecting features in a new video to be encoded, relating those features to specific blocks of data, and accessing similar model information from the model library. The formation of model libraries can be specialized to include personal, “smart” model libraries, differential libraries, and predictive libraries. Predictive model libraries can be modified to handle a variety of demand scenarios. | 07-04-2013 |
