| ABSTRACT | A wide-field fundus indirect ophthalmoscopy method and apparatus are provided that can be miniaturized to be suitable for employment in a smartphone and that overcome limitations of existing smartphone wide field fundus imaging devices and methods, such as high cost, clinical deployment challenges and limited field of view. The wide-field fundus indirect ophthalmoscopy method and apparatus are also well suited for use in rural and underserved areas where both expensive instruments and skilled operators are typically not available. The wide-field fundus indirect ophthalmoscopy method and apparatus enable wide-field snapshot fundus images to be captured with wide fields of view (FOV) under mydriatic and non-mydriatic conditions and also enables video recordings of the fundus to be captured from which montages can be constructed with even wider FOVs. |

| ABSTRACT | A collector device of environmental exposure is provided. This device may be used to collect and, after technical upgrade, monitor environmental exposure in personal and stationary settings. By coupling with advanced genomic analysis and chemical analysis technologies, the device and its accompanying methodology are capable of detecting environmental agents of diverse nature, many of which could pose health risks if going unaware of or uncontrolled. This type of information provides much needed clues to reconstruct and pinpoint the course of disease etiology at both personal and epidemic scales. By combining personal exposome and personal omics analyses, we can recapitulate with the intention to then prescribe treatment plans with unprecedented precision. |

| ABSTRACT | Thermal control systems that include variable conductivity metamaterial units are provided. The metamaterial unit a plurality of thermally conductive plates, a plurality of first bonds, each of which connects two adjoining thermally conductive plates, and a plurality of second bonds, each of which connects two adjoining thermally conductive plates. Also included is a load inducer constructed to cause the plurality of thermally conductive plates to move between a non-contact state, in which opposing surfaces of the plurality of thermally conductive plates are not in direct contact, to a contact state, in which the opposing surfaces of the plurality of thermally conductive are in at least partial direct contact, so as to change a thermal conductivity of the metamaterial unit from a first value to a second value. Through the ability to design the effective thermal conductivity as a function of temperature a passive thermal control capability is achieved by the introduction of thermal stability regions that will passively ensure thermal stability. |

| ABSTRACT | A method for reducing or eliminating bias instability in a SBS laser gyroscope comprises introducing a first pump signal propagating in a CW direction, and a second pump signal propagating in a CCW direction in a resonator; generating a CCW first-order SBS signal and a CW first-order SBS signal in the resonator; increasing a power level of the first pump signal above a threshold level such that the CW first-order SBS signal generates a CCW second-order SBS signal; and increasing a power level of the second pump signal above the threshold level such that the CCW first-order SBS signal generates a CW second-order SBS signal. Above the threshold level, an intensity fluctuation of the first-order SBS signals disappear and their DC power are clamped at substantially the same power level. A Kerr effect bias instability of the SBS laser gyroscope is reduced or eliminated by the clamped first-order SBS signals. |

| ABSTRACT | A non-transitory computer readable medium on which is stored machine-readable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the processor to determine the location in 3D space of an object of interest within the interior region of an opaque container. Hence, a user or operator is allowed to construct a three-dimensional representation of the interior region of the opaque container so as to allow viewing of objects, components and substances within the interior region. The users or operators now have the opportunity to isolate a particular object of interest within the interior region that may be a threat, such as an explosive device or other energetic component. A disrupter device is aimed at the three-dimensional location and thereafter, the disrupter device fires a projectile or substance at the object of interest in order to disable or destroy the object of interest. |

| ABSTRACT | Embodiments of the present disclosure pertain to ion-selective electrodes that include a metal-organic framework and an electrode surface. The metal-organic framework is associated with the electrode surface in a manner that forms an interface between the metal-organic framework and the electrode surface. Additional embodiments pertain to methods of detecting an ion in a sample by associating the sample with the ion-selective electrodes of the present disclosure. The metal-organic frameworks of the ion-selective electrodes mediate ion-to-electron transduction through the interface between the metal-organic and the electrode surface. Thereafter, the presence or absence of the ion in the sample is detected by detecting a change in potential of the ion-selective electrode and correlating the change in the potential to the presence or absence of the ion. The metal organic frameworks may simultaneously mediate ion sensing and ion-to-electron transduction through the interface between the metal-organic frameworks and the electrode surface. |

| ABSTRACT | A system for determining a position of a receiver from as few as two or three transmitters. The receiver may be stationary or moving with a known velocity. The system includes a receiver clock having a clock bias and a clock drift relative to a reference clock and may also include a motion sensor. A decoder receives transmitted signals from a number of transmitters and determine pseudo-ranges and transmitter frequencies therefrom and a processing unit receives the pseudo-ranges, the transmitter frequencies and the receiver velocity and determines the position of the receiver therefrom. When only two transmitters are available, the position of the receiver is determined dependent upon a known receiver clock drift. The system may also determine clock bias and, when three or more transmitters are available, receiver clock drift. The processing unit uses ranging and Doppler equations in combination, and may also use a measured velocity. |

| ABSTRACT | An inductive power transfer system is used for transferring electrical power across a gap, such as an air gap or a liquid gap, such as to unmanned autonomous vehicles (UAVs). The power transfer system is a polyphase system that creates a travelling magnetic field in the air or liquid gap, implementing a resonant electro-magnetic (EM) field to allow larger gap separations and less precise alignments. The power transfer system may have a polyphase dynamoelectric machine attached to primary mechanical-inertial storage device with multiple stator and rotor ports connected to a polyphase traveling-wave inductive power transmitter apparatus. The system may be of use in transferring power to underwater vehicles in a subsea salt water environment. Such a power transfer system may part of a larger system for underwater power transfer, for instance at depths of at least 10 km, and/or at distances of 1 to 50 km. |

| ABSTRACT | An electrocatalyst comprises a crumpled transition metal dichalcogenide support loaded with catalytic metal nanoparticles through spontaneous reduction reactions. The support can be prepared by hydrothermal conversion of 2D nanosheets to 3D hierarchically crumpled sheets. As an example, using crumpled MoS2 as a support, highly tunable Ru loadings were obtained using the electrostatic interaction between MoS2 and RuCl3 in solution. Control over Ru loading was leveraged to produce Ru—MoS2 electrocatalysts that demonstrate different nitrogen reduction reaction activities, and which show varying resistance to electrochemical sintering and deactivation. Further, these high surface area materials can be utilized for many applications, including electrocatalysts, supercapacitors, and batteries. |

| ABSTRACT | An approach to detecting partial discharge events involves retrofitting an electrical system to include a capacitive sensor configured to capacitively sense partial discharge events of a component of the electrical system. The capacitive sensor has a first electrical conductor that forms a first terminal of the capacitive sensor, a second electrical conductor that forms a second terminal of the capacitive sensor, and a dielectric that separates the first electrical conductor and the second electrical conductor. The capacitive sensor generates an electrical sensor signal at an output of the capacitive sensor in response to the partial discharge event. The electrical sensor signal is converted to an optical signal and the optical signal is processed to detect an occurrence of the partial discharge event. |

| ABSTRACT | An industrial asset may have a plurality of monitoring nodes, each monitoring node generating a series of monitoring node values over time representing current operation of the industrial asset. An abnormality detection computer may determine that an abnormal monitoring node is currently being attacked or experiencing a fault. An autonomous, resilient estimator may continuously execute an adaptive learning process to create or update virtual sensor models for that monitoring node. Responsive to an indication that a monitoring node is currently being attacked or experiencing a fault, a level of neutralization may be automatically determined. The autonomous, resilient estimator may then be dynamically reconfigured to estimate a series of virtual node values based on information from normal monitoring nodes, appropriate virtual sensor models, and the determined level of neutralization. The series of monitoring node values from the abnormal monitoring node or nodes may then be replaced with the virtual node values. |

| ABSTRACT | Wavefront loading in a processor is managed and includes monitoring a selected wavefront of a set of wavefronts. Reuse of memory access requests for the selected wavefront is counted. A cache hit rate in one or more caches of the processor is determined based on the counted reuse. Based on the cache hit rate, subsequent memory requests of other wavefronts of the set of wavefronts are modified by including a type of reuse of cache lines in requests to the caches. In the caches, storage of data in the caches is based on the type of reuse indicated by the subsequent memory access requests. Reused cache lines are protected by preventing cache line contents from being replaced by another cache line for a duration of processing the set of wavefronts. Caches are bypassed when streaming access requests are made. |

| ABSTRACT | A Forwarding Information Base (FIB) caching system and scheme that selects and generates a minimal number of non-overlapping prefixes for the FIB cache to improve computer-based network communications and operations efficiency, accuracy and speed. Because the cached prefixes do not cover any longer prefixes in the full FIB, the present invention thus avoids cache-hiding issues. The system further comprises a FIB caching updating component that systematically handles cache misses, cache replacement, and routing updates. |

| ABSTRACT | An interconnection network for a processing unit having an array of cores. The interconnection network includes routers and adaptable links that selectively connect routers in the interconnection network. For example, each router may be electrically connected to one or more of the adaptable links via one or more multiplexers and a link controller may control the multiplexers to selectively connect routers via the adaptable links. In another example, adaptable links may be formed as part of an interposer and the link controller selectively connect routers via the adaptable links in the interposer using interposer switches. The adaptable links enable the interconnection network to be dynamically partitioned. Each of those partitions may be dynamically reconfigured to form a topology. |

| ABSTRACT | Known intra-domain routing methods (e.g., OSPF and IS-IS) are link-state routing protocols with hop-by-hop forwarding that sacrifice optimal traffic engineering for ease of implementation and management. Known optimal traffic engineering procedures are either not link-state methods or require source routing—characteristics that make them difficult to implement. Certain embodiments of the present invention include a fully distributed, adaptive, link-state routing protocol with hop-by-hop forwarding configured to achieve optimal traffic engineering. Such embodiments facilitate significant performance improvements relative to known intra-domain routing methods and decrease network infrastructure requirements. |

| ABSTRACT | A system controls a transmission of data. A sensor datum measured by a sensor is received. Whether to send the received sensor datum to a multiplexer is determined based on a predefined real time download rate. When the determination indicates to send the received sensor datum to the multiplexer, the received sensor datum is sent to the multiplexer. When the determination does not indicate to send the received sensor datum to the multiplexer, the received sensor datum is written to a data file. The written sensor datum is sent from the data file to the multiplexer when there is an indicator of excess available bandwidth. |

| ABSTRACT | Long-term photovoltaic system degradation can be predicted through a simple, low-cost solution. The approach requires the configuration specification for a photovoltaic system, as well as measured photovoltaic production data and solar irradiance, such as measured by a reliable third party source using satellite imagery. Note the configuration specification can be derived. This information is used to simulate photovoltaic power production by the photovoltaic system, which is then evaluated against the measured photovoltaic production data. The simulated production is adjusted to infer degradation that can be projected over time to forecast long-term photovoltaic system degradation. |

A network overlay orchestrator in each node periodically validates the connections to other nodes in the mesh network based on a current topology of connected nodes to ensure the efficiency of current connections. Connection logic replaces, if a connection validation fails, the failed connection with a newly established connection from a set of available neighbor nodes, and replaces, if none of the current connections fail validation, a stochastically selected connection with a newly established connection from the set of available neighbor nodes for promoting perturbation in the current internode connections. |

How To Use This Page
THE FEDINVENT PATENT DETAILS PAGE
Each week, FedInvent analyzes newly granted patents and published patent applications whose origins lead back to funding by the US Federal Government. The FedInvent Patent Details page is a companion to the weekly FedInvents Patents Report.
This week's information is published in the FedInvent Patents report for Tuesday, November 01, 2022.
The FedInvent Weekly Patent Details Page contains a subset of patent information to provide a deeper dive into the week’s taxpayer-funded patents to help the reader better understand where a patent fits in the federal innovation ecosphere.
HOW IS THE INFORMATION ORGANIZED?
Patents are organized by the funding agency. Within each group, the patents are organized in numeric order. A patent funded by more than one agency will appear in the section of each of the agencies that funded the research and development that resulted in the invention. This approach gives the reader a complete view of the department or agency activity for the week.
WHAT INFORMATION WILL I FIND?
THE PANEL
There is a panel for each patent that contains the patent number and the title of the patent. When you click the panel, it opens to reveal the following information:
FUNDED BY
The agencies that funded the grants, contracts, or other research agreements that resulted in the patent. FedInvent includes as much information on the source of the funding as possible. The information is presented in a hierarchy going from the Federal Department down to the agencies, subagencies, and offices that funded the work. Here are two examples:
Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)
National Institutes of Health (NIH)
National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK)
Department of Defense (DOD)
Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)
Army Research Office (ARO)
We do our best to provide detailed information about the funding. In some cases, the patent only reports limited information on the origins of the funding. FedInvents presents what it can confirm. We add the patents without the information required by the Bayh-Dole Act to our list of patents worthy of further investigation.
APPLICANT(S) and ASSIGNEES
FedInvent includes both the Applicants and the Assignees because having both provides more information about where the inventive work was done and by what organizations. Many organizations — universities, corporations, and federal agencies — standardize the Assignee/Owner information by the time a patent is granted. In the case of federal patents, many of the patents use the agency headquarters information for patent assignment.
Showing just the headquarters address would make Washington, DC the epicenter of all taxpayer-funded research and development. Providing both the applicant information and the assignee information provides a more accurate picture of where important taxpayer funded innovation is happening in America. Here are two examples from two different patents:
APPLICANT: U.S. Army Research Laboratory, Adelphi, MD
ASSIGNEE: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Army Washington, DC
APPLICANT: Optech Ventures, LLC (Torrance, California)
ASSIGNEE(S): The Regents of the University of California (Oakland, California); Optech Ventures, LLC (Torrance, California)
INVENTOR(S)
The inventors appear in the same order as they appear on the patent. FedInvents presents the names in first name/last name order because they are easier to read than the last name/first name order of the names on the USPTO patent documents.
ABSTRACT
The abstract as it appears on the patent.
FILED
The date of the patent application including the day of the week.
APPL NO
This is the patent application serial number. If you’d like to learn more about how application serial numbers work you can go to the Lists Page.
ART UNIT
Patent data includes the Art Unit where a patent was examined. (The Art Unit isn’t available for published patent applications.) The Art Unit provides insight into what group of patent examiners prosecuted the patent application and the subject matter that the examiners work on. For example:
3793 — Medical Instruments, Diagnostic Equipment, and Treatment Devices
You can learn more about ART UNITS on the FedInvent Patents Weekly panel called About Tech Center or you can find information on the FedInvent Lists Page.
CURRENT CPC
Current CPC provides a list of the Cooperative Patent Classification symbols assigned to the patent. These are the CPC symbols assigned at the time the patent was granted.
The FedInvent Project is a patent classification maximalist endeavor or put another way, we believe that more you understand about patent classification the more you'll learn about the nature of the invention and the types of work that the federal government is funding.
The symbol presented in BOLD is the symbol identified as the "first" classification which is the most relevant classification on the patent. The date that follows the symbol is the date of the most recent revision to the art classed there.
- A61B 1/149 (20130101)
- A61B 1/71 (20130101)
- A61B 1/105 (20130101)
The CPC symbols match the classifications found on the PDF version of the patent. Over time, the classifications on the full-text version of the patent change to reflect how USPTO organizes patent art to support its examiners. The two sets of CPCs don’t always match.
VIEW PATENT
As of June 2021, we include two ways to view a patent at USPTO. FedInvent provides a link to the Full-Text Version of the patent and a link to the PDF version of the patent.
HOW DO I FIND A SPECIFIC PATENT ON A PAGE?
You can use the Command F or Control F to find a specific patent you are interested in.
HOW DO I GET HERE?
You navigate to the details of a patent by clicking the information icon that follows a patent on the FedInvent Patents Weekly Report.
You can also reach this page using the weekly page link that looks like this:
