20130258451 | Spatio-Temporal Directional Light Modulator - A spatio-temporal directional light modulator is introduced. This directional light modulator can be used to create 3D displays, ultra-high resolution 2D displays or 2D/3D switchable displays with extended viewing angle. The spatio-temporal aspects of this novel light modulator allow it to modulate the intensity, color and direction of the light it emits within an wide viewing angle. The inherently fast modulation and wide angular coverage capabilities of this directional light modulator increase the achievable viewing angle, and directional resolution making the 3D images created by the display be more realistic or alternatively the 2D images created by the display having ultra high resolution. | 10-03-2013 |

The light field cameras can be also be used as 2D/3D switchable cameras with extended angular extent. The spatio-temporal aspects of the novel light field cameras allow them to capture and digitally record the intensity and color from multiple directional views within a wide angle. The inherent volumetric compactness of the light field cameras make it possible to embed in small mobile devices to capture either 3D images or computationally focusable 2D images. The inherent versatility of these light field cameras makes them suitable for multiple perspective light field capture for 3D movies and video recording applications. | 12-05-2013 |

20160062113 | Split Exit Pupil Heads-Up Display Systems and Methods - Split exit pupil (or split eye-box) heads-up display (HUD) systems and methods are described. The described HUD system methods make use of a split exit pupil design method that enables a modular HUD system and allows the HUD system viewing eye-box size to be tailored while reducing the overall HUD volumetric aspects. A HUD module utilizes a high brightness small size micro-pixel imager to generate a HUD virtual image with a given viewing eye-box segment size. When integrated together into a HUD system, a multiplicity of such HUD modules displaying the same image would enable such an integrated HUD system to have an eye-box size that is substantially larger than the eye-box size of a HUD module. The resultant integrated HUD system volume is substantially volumetrically smaller than a HUD system that uses a single larger imager. Furthermore, the integrated HUD system can be comprised of a multiplicity of HUD modules to scale the eye-box size to match the intended application while maintaining a given desired overall HUD system brightness. | 03-03-2016 |

20130133891 | Equalization Valve - An equalization valve that allows for continuous equalization of pressure above and below a sealing element is disclosed. The equalization valve includes a housing having a fluid passageway therethrough. The fluid passageway is fluidically continuous across a sealing element disposed on a mandrel. The mandrel is part of a sealing assembly that contains the sealing element. The equalization valve includes a valve plug moveable from an open position in which the valve plug is not engaged with the sealing mandrel to a seated position in which the valve plug is seated against the sealing mandrel. The valve plug defines a conduit, the conduit that provides for a minimal fluid flow across the sealing element, when the valve plug is seated against the sealing mandrel. The sealing element remains sealingly engaged against the wellbore while the plug is in the seated position and while minimal fluid flow is occurring. The conduit may be provided as part of an insert, the insert being positionable within the valve plug. The equalization valve further includes an outer port for permitting lateral flow of fluid from the tubing string to the annulus defined between the tubing string and the wellbore. The equalization valve may be part of a downhole tool assembly which includes the equalization valve and a sealing assembly. | 05-30-2013 |
20130180721 | Downhole Fluid Treatment Tool - A treatment device and method for use in delivering fluid treatment to a wellbore is described. The device includes a first treatment housing and a second treatment housing, mounted along a tubing string, each of the first and second housing defining a fluid pathway which is continuous with the tubing string and each of the first and second treatment housing defining a port for fluid communication between the tubing string and the wellbore. Fluid flow through the first housing may be selectively blocked by delivery of a deformable ball to the tubing string to seal against a ball seat disposed between the first and second housing. While the first pathway is blocked, fluid may be selectively delivered to the wellbore through the port on the second treatment housing. The ball may be removed from the ball seat by application of hydraulic pressure in excess of the deformation threshold of the ball, forcing the ball to deform and pass through the seat, re-opening the fluid flow through the first treatment housing and allowing for treatment through port defined in the first housing. | 07-18-2013 |

A float tool for creating a buoyant chamber in a casing string may include the rupture disc assembly and a sealing device for sealing the lower end of the casing string, the buoyant, sealed chamber may be created there between. In operation, applied fluid pressure causes the rupture disc to move downward. The rupture disc may be shattered by contact with a surface on the lower tubular portion. Full casing internal diameter may be restored in the region where the rupture disc formerly sealed the casing. | 08-07-2014 |
20140305648 | TOOLS AND METHODS FOR USE IN COMPLETION OF A WELLBORE - A ported tubular is provided for use in casing a wellbore, to permit selective access to the adjacent formation during completion operations.

20150075809 | DOWNHOLE ISOLATION AND DEPRESSURIZATION TOOL - A depressurization tool is described for use downhole in depressurizing an isolated zone. A decompression chamber containing a compressible fluid volume is described. The opening of the chamber is sealed with a closure that is configured to open upon application of a pressure differential across the opening. When used downhole within an isolated and nonpermeable wellbore zone, excessive ambient pressure will cause the closure to open and allow the chamber to fill with fluid at increased pressure, depressurizing the wellbore zone. The tool is useful in wellbore completion systems that include sliding sleeves. | 03-19-2015 |
20160003003 | TOOLS AND METHODS FOR USE IN COMPLETION OF A WELLBORE - A ported tubular is provided for use in casing a wellbore, to permit selective access to the adjacent formation during completion operations. A system and method for completing a wellbore using the ported tubular are also provided. Ports within the wellbore casing may be opened, isolated, or otherwise accessed to deliver treatment to the formation through the ports, using a tool assembly deployed on tubing or wireline. | 01-07-2016 |
