Apparatus And Method For Indicating Direction

US Patent:
7866054, Jan 11, 2011
Filed:
Apr 17, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/386505
Inventors:
Christopher R. Kilgus - Felton CA, US
International Classification:
G01C 1/00, G01C 21/00
US Classification:
33268, 33 1 N, 33534
Abstract:
A pointing device adapted to allow a user to set a pointing arrow to point towards another location, such as a city in another country. The pointing arrow is adapted to not point in a direction along the surface of the earth but to point accurately through the Earth. An apparatus including a pointing device and a calculation portion adapted to allow the user to determine how to point the pointing arrow towards the desired location. The calculation portion may include an electronic device and may include the use of a global computer network.

Multi-Directional Rfid Antenna

US Patent:
6069564, May 30, 2000
Filed:
Sep 8, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/149887
Inventors:
Richard Hatano - Santa Cruz CA
Brian Monahan - Santa Cruz CA
Christopher R. Kilgus - Felton CA
International Classification:
G08B 1314
US Classification:
3405727
Abstract:
A multi-directional RFID read/write antenna unit is described which provides multi-directional RF communication to a source, such as a RF tag. The antenna comprises a plurality of coils adapted to transmit multi-directional RF signals to a RF tag and receive RF response signals from the RF tag. The RF antenna includes a switch for selecting at least one of the RF antenna coils for transmission of the RF signals and receipt of the RF response signals whereby the RF signals can be directed toward and received from a plurality of different directions from a fixed position.

Minigenerator

US Patent:
8486058, Jul 16, 2013
Filed:
Jan 29, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/696573
Inventors:
Salmaan Hameed - San Jose CA, US
Christopher Kilgus - Felton CA, US
Moshe Zilversmit - Palo Alto CA, US
Assignee:
Chest Innovations, Inc. - Pleasanton CA
International Classification:
A61B 18/04
US Classification:
606 34
Abstract:
The present invention provides an Electro Surgical Generator (ESG) optimized for lung biopsy. The ESG is exclusively battery operated and fits within the handpiece of modern endoscopic electrosurgical/electrocautery instruments, thereby avoiding wires, adapters, and coupling mechanisms. The ESG is adaptable to generate different waveforms that vary with respect to frequency, pulse width, amplitude, etc. through the use of timing circuits and voltage control (i. e. transformers). The ESG is both energy-efficient and safe. A closed loop feedback system featuring a monitor and controller ensure no more power than necessary is provided to achieve a goal current level. Dynamic Power Control (DPC) and Dynamic Temperature Control (DTC) systems vary power to maintain temperature with the lowest possible power. These features prolong battery life and guard against tissue damage. The generator includes other safety features such as resiliency against and the ability to overcome single fault events such as short circuits.
