Telemetry Power Carrier Pulse Encoder
US Patent:
5144299, Sep 1, 1992
Filed:
May 29, 1990
Appl. No.:
7/530015
Inventors:
David C. Smith - Jupiter FL
Assignee:
United Technologies Corporation - Hartford CT
International Classification:
G08C 1916
US Classification:
34087018
Abstract:
A telemetry system for use in controlling the operation of sensors configured on a rotating blade of a gas turbine engine includes an oscillator for generating a power carrier signal. A mechanism is included for providing command signals that select a mode of operation of the sensors and a telemetry encoder apparatus is used to generate encoder signals for modulating the power carrier signal in accordance with the selected mode of sensor operation. Also included in the present telemetry system is a programmable switch receiving the power carrier signal for modulating the power carrier signal amplitude in accordance with the encoder signals. A resistor shunts the programmable switching mechanism, and a coil transmits the modulated power carrier signal to a transceiver positioned on the turbine blade providing control signals to the sensor and transmitting sensor information to a receiver coil off of the turbine blade.
Fingerprint Scanner Auto-Capture System And Method
US Patent:
2002002, Feb 21, 2002
Filed:
Mar 30, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/821044
Inventors:
David Smith - Tequesta FL, US
Assignee:
CROSS MATCH TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
International Classification:
G06K009/00
US Classification:
382/124000
Abstract:
A system and method of capturing an acceptable fingerprint image is disclosed herein. The method includes a step of capturing an initial fingerprint image at a nominal image integration time. Once this initial fingerprint image is captured, a first intermediate fingerprint image at a first intermediate image integration time is captured. Next, an image darkness test is performed followed by an image definition test. If one or more of these tests indicates that the first intermediate fingerprint image is unacceptable, a subsequent intermediate fingerprint image at a subsequent intermediate image integration time is captured. This subsequent intermediate fingerprint image can be captured before the image definition test is performed. Additional intermediate fingerprint images can be captured until an image that has an acceptable darkness level as a well as an acceptable definition level is captured. Also disclosed is a fingerprint scanner that performs this method.
Non-Linear Signal Gain Compression And Sampling
US Patent:
5226733, Jul 13, 1993
Filed:
Jul 23, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/917644
Inventors:
Michael D. Mitchell - Royal Palm Beach FL
David C. Smith - Jupiter FL
David C. Smith - Jupiter FL
Assignee:
United Technologies Corporation - Hartford CT
International Classification:
G01K 714
US Classification:
374172
Abstract:
The voltage across a temperature responsive diode supplied with constant current is sensed and applied to two analog amplifiers with different gains. The output from each amplifier is applied to a sample and hold circuit. The output from each sample and hold circuit is applied to an analog to digital converter to produce two binary signals. The minimum binary value of one signal corresponds to the minimum voltage drop; the maximum to the drop at an intermediate temperature. The minimum binary value of a second signal corresponds to the drop at the intermediate temperature and the maximum binary value of this signal corresponds to the drop at a maximum temperature. Both binary signals are applied to the multiplexer which selects one signal to address a stored temperature in a look-up table. The multiplexer uses the binary signal produced with the high gain amplifier output for the address until the most significant bit in the signal switches states, when the multiplexer uses the binary signal produced from the low gain amplifier. The address is a stored temperature.
Data Acquisition Transmitter And Receiver
US Patent:
4575720, Mar 11, 1986
Filed:
Oct 14, 1983
Appl. No.:
6/542305
Inventors:
David C. Smith - Jupiter FL
Assignee:
Otis Elevator Company - Farmington CT
International Classification:
H04Q 912, G08B 2500
US Classification:
34082554
Abstract:
A transmitter has a plurality of parallel inputs, and each input is connected to a switch. The transmitter receives a trigger signal that has a constant frequency. Using the trigger signal, the transmitter provides a signal which consists of individual series signals, each one of the series signals representing the status of one of the switches. The series signal also includes a sync signal which precedes the series signals associated with the status of the switches. These series signals are generated in synchronism with the trigger signal that is applied to the transmitter. A receiver receives the series signals and also the trigger signal. The sync signal is detected in the receiver, and a status signal is generated in response to each of the series signals following the sync signal as those signals are received. Each status signal is applied to an input which is identified by the number of repetitions made by the trigger signal after the sync signal is detected. An alarm may be activated in response to the status signal on the receiver outputs, the number of which equals the number of inputs on the transmitter.

Cross Match Technologies, Inc. - Palm Beach Gardens FL
International Classification:
G06K 9/00
US Classification:
382125000
Abstract:
A system and method for counting ridges in a captured print image frame is described. A pixel path through the captured print image frame is traversed. A hysteresis band for the pixel path is determined. A number of crossings of the determined hysteresis band is counted while traversing the pixel path. A number of print ridges based on the counted number of hysteresis band crossings is determined.
