20150106046 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CALCULATING BALLISTIC SOLUTIONS - Systems and methods to calculate ballistic solutions for use with a projectile launching device are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the system includes a telescopic sight assembly for viewing a target, wherein the telescopic sight assembly comprises at least one display device for displaying information, a processor, a memory, and a data input device, wherein the system for use with a projectile launching device to calculate ballistic solutions is configured to perform passive target ranging. In some embodiments, the system includes a telescopic sight assembly for viewing a target, at least one display device for displaying information to a user within the field-of-view of the telescopic sight assembly, a processor configured to receive user input data associated with one or more actual projectile impact locations as observed by the user, a memory, and a data input device, wherein at least one display device displays a calculated projectile impact location. | 04-16-2015 |
20140268125 | APPARATUS FOR TAKING AN ACCURATE PHOTOMETRIC MEASUREMENT OF A LIQUID - An apparatus for taking an accurate photometric measurement of a liquid by way of forming a specimen volume of a controlled optical path length for use with photometric measurement equipment is disclosed herein. In some embodiments, the apparatus comprises a transparent body configured for displacing a volume of a fluid and at least one support element wherein the support element is configured to maintain the transparent body at a location such that specimen fluid may enter a void volume to form a specimen volume of a controlled optical path length. In some embodiments, the apparatus comprises a plurality of transparent bodies interconnected by a web such that the transparent bodies are maintained at a spacing arrangement which allows for them to be inserted into the wells of a microplate in order to create a plurality of specimen volumes of a controlled optical path length. | 09-18-2014 |
20130228675 | MULTICHANNEL ANALYTICAL INSTRUMENTS FOR USE WITH SPECIMEN HOLDERS - An analytical instrument may have multiple distinct channels. Such may include one or more illumination sources and sensors. Illumination may be delivered to specific locations of a specimen holder, and returned illumination may be delivered to specific locations of a sensor array. Illumination may first pass a specimen, and a mirror or reflector may then return the illumination past the specimen. Optical splitters may be employed to couple pairs of fiber optics proximate a specimen holder. Such channels may further include a plurality of illumination sources positioned on one side of a specimen holder and a plurality of sensors on the other side. The plurality of sensor may capture image of a specimen and a spectrophotometer may concurrently scan the specimen. A plurality of specimens may be imaged and scanned in a single pass of a plurality of passes. Spherical or ball lenses may be placed in an optical path of the illumination to achieve a desired illumination pattern. | 09-05-2013 |
