Abstract:
The system and method of the present invention utilizes one or more sensors to generate data attached to a person interfaced with a data monitoring computing device and a data management computing device monitoring the terrain the individual is traversing and gait at which the individual is traversing the terrain, in addition to predicting the terrain the individual is about to traverse.
Abstract:
A clamp assembly configured for holding hockey sticks and hockey puck comprises an adjustable bracket having a generally square-shaped cross-section, the bracket being configured to hold shafts of four hockey sticks, and at least one puck clamp coupled to the adjustable bracket, the at least one puck clamp being configured to secure a hockey puck proximate to the adjustable bracket.

Abstract:
The invention is directed to compositions and methods for preparing an artificial oral tissue. The artificial oral tissue is prepared using a biocompatible substrate seeded with salivary gland cells that develop to produce a salivary gland tissue layer with a prototypal salivary system and a prototypal secretory system. The salivary gland cells proliferate, mature and differentiate into a salivary gland structure that are analogous to its in vivo counterpart.
Abstract:
A method for image generation, preferably including: generating a set of mission parameters for a UAV mission of the UAV associated with aerial scanning of a region of interest; controlling the UAV to perform the mission; generating an image subassembly corresponding to the mission; and/or rendering the image subassembly at a display.
Abstract:
A small lift vehicle with an articulating boom can maneuver into very small spaces in front of, alongside or behind burning buildings, especially residences. The lift vehicle can quickly deploy with deployable outriggers capable of multi-directional status for support. The boom can support a basket that can have a water cannon. The boom can be controlled by a fireman in the boom itself, and can move into the right position to put water on the seat of a fire. The boom can be equipped with a waterproof camera and/or a thermal imaging system, a hydraulic chainsaw, a gas monitor, a piercing nozzle, a stick chainsaw, and a protective heat curtain. The preferred base has 4-wheel drive and steering for maneuvering on any type of terrain including snow.

Abstract:
An agitator apparatus for a mixing vessel having a rotating member and one or more impellers coupled to the rotating member, at least one of the impellers being collapsible so that the collapsible impeller is movable from a collapsed orientation to a deployed orientation relative to the rotating member. A limiting member may be used to prevent the collapsible impeller from opening beyond its fully deployed orientation.
Abstract:
A method of assembling a turbine casing is provided. The method includes inserting a bolt assembly through a first opening defined generally vertically through a first flange extending from a first casing member, such that a portion of the bolt assembly extends a distance upward from an upper surface of the first casing flange and such that the bolt assembly is retained within the first opening. The method further includes positioning a second casing member including a second flange including a second opening defined therein against the first casing member such that a portion of the bolt assembly extends through the opening defined in the second casing flange.
