Universal Belay Device

Invention SummaryThis is the FIRST belay device that can be easily switched between a frictional mode and auto-locking mode. Switching between the two modes can be done anytime without removing the ropes or unclipping the device from the belayer’s harness. This means switching can occur at any time without sacrificing safety. The universal belay...

Optical Scanning System to Detect Volume and Interferences in Blood Specimen in Opaque Test Containers

Invention Summary: Current state-of-the-art fully automated blood sampling systems do not implement pre-screening of test tubes for volume or content. Instead, all test tubes are sent to the analyzers which may fail to complete a test due to insufficient volume or interferences within the sample. Spillage may also occur in the event that that sample...

Emergency Release Snowboard Binding (ERSB)

Invention Summary: Unlike ski bindings, snowboard bindings have no release mechanism that allows the rider to quickly be separated from the snowboard case of an emergency. As a result, if a snowboarder is caught in an avalanche, the snow flowing over the board typically drags the snowboarder to the bottom of the avalanche. This drastically reduces the...

Invention Description:1. The gimbal in this invention consists of a single spherical axis that can achieve three rotational degreed of freedom. The spherical shell is driven four or more multi-axis piezomotors through vibration transmitted through motion. The frictional nature of these motors provides a high torque, direct drive system that is absolutely...
