20110048217 | ROLLER SYSTEM - A roller system including a frame, a plurality of arm assemblies configured to apply a force to a surface, each arm assembly including an arm pivotably connected to the frame and a roller assembly pivotably connected to the arm and having a plurality of rollers configured to engage with the surface, and a pressure distribution system configured to adjust the force applied to the surface by at least one of the plurality of arm assemblies. | 03-03-2011 |
20110180283 | Modular Roller Sytem - In an implementation, a roller system is provided. The roller system includes a modular frame. The frame includes a plurality of weight component attachment points. Each weight component attachment point is adapted to receive one or more weight components such that a weight of the frame and location of a center of gravity of the frame is adjusted by the addition of one or more weight components to each of the plurality of weight component attachment points. The frame further includes at least one arm assembly adapted to connect to the frame, and to apply force to a surface, wherein the force applied to the surface is proportional to the weight of the frame and the location of the center of gravity of the frame. | 07-28-2011 |
20150032293 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REMOTE CONTROL OF UNMANNED VEHICLES - An open architecture control system is provided that may be used for remote and semi-autonomous operation of commercial off the shelf (COTS) and custom robotic systems, platforms, and vehicles to enable safer neutralization of explosive hazards and other services. In order to effectively deal with rapidly evolving threats and highly variable operational environments, the control system is built using an open architecture and includes a high level of interoperability. The control system interfaces with a large range of robotic systems and vehicles, autonomy software packages, perception systems, and manipulation peripherals to enable prosecution of complex missions effectively. Because the control system is open and does not constrain the end user to a single robotics system, mobile platform, or peripheral hardware and software, the control system may be used to assist with a multitude of missions beyond explosive hazard detection and clearance. | 01-29-2015 |
20160025121 | Quick-Release Clamp with Secondary Retention Mechanism - A quick-release clamping mechanism secures two objects and rapidly attaches or detaches to secure the objects to one another in a rigid, repeatable manner. The mechanism is formed from two interconnecting contiguous pieces of material, free from hinges or other attachment devices. The first contiguous piece is attached to a first object, and the second contiguous piece is attached to a second object to be secured to the first object. The piece that forms the first profile can be a rail with a male protrusion. The piece that forms the second profile can be a rail with a female cavity that receives the male protrusion. The mechanism also includes a retention channel, a clamp bar, and a tension device that applies tension to the clamp bar to secure the mechanism. A secondary retention mechanism is provided to prevent separation of the components if the primary locking feature is disengaged inadvertently. | 01-28-2016 |

20160075389 | Multiple Position Bicycle Seat Post - A bicycle seat position changer is provided which allows the rider to quickly change the effective seat tube angle of the bicycle without requiring the use of tools. The seat position changer allows the rider to move the seat between a forward position and a rearward position, allowing a rider to select a more aerodynamic position or a traditional road position while riding, as required for comfort or by riding conditions. The seat position changer allows the rider to adjust the seat position between the forward and rearward positions while maintaining a consistent difference in seat-to-bottom-bracket length. In one embodiment the consistent difference in seat-to-bottom-bracket length is close to zero and imperceptible to the rider. | 03-17-2016 |

20150037781 | MONITORING DEVICE AND SYSTEM FOR REMOTE TEST TAKING - Arrangement for remote transaction session for use with a computer having an operating system, including a support structure, at least one audio sensor for detecting sound and arranged on the support structure, at least one radio frequency communication detecting sensor arranged on the support structure, at least one optical imaging device that obtains images of an area including the computer or the user and arranged on the support structure, at least one biometric sensor that receives data about or from a user using the computer to participate in an remote session, and at least one motion sensor system for detecting motion in an area around the user. A processing unit is coupled to the sensors and receives and analyzes data therefrom to (1. verify the identity of the user as the intended, registered participant in an remote session, (2. verify that the user is present within the remote session environment throughout the entirety of the remote session, and (3. verify that the user complies with remote session rules of behavior set by the administrator or institution. | 02-05-2015 |
