Title: Innovations by Carey D Bunks
Introduction
Carey D Bunks is an accomplished inventor based in Boston, MA. She has made significant contributions to the field of acoustic surveillance and reservoir monitoring. With a total of 2 patents, her work showcases innovative methods for detecting and analyzing acoustic energy sources.
Latest Patents
One of her latest patents is an "Acoustic surveillance apparatus and method." This invention provides a means for detecting, locating, tracking, or classifying an acoustic energy source located on the far side of a structure. The apparatus samples multiple points on the near side of the structure to detect vibrations caused by sound waves from the acoustic energy source. The location is determined by analyzing the relative time differences of these vibrations. Additionally, the invention includes a device that transmits sound waves through the structure to enhance detection capabilities.
Another notable patent is related to "Reservoir monitoring." This method aims to reduce the time, cost, and equipment needed for monitoring the geometry of oil/water, oil/gas, or gas/water interfaces in underground reservoirs. By strategically placing sources and sensors, and fixing sensors to the solid earth surface beneath the water, the changing edges and geometry of the oil can be determined with significantly less data gathering. This innovative approach allows for higher resolution reflectivity areas and utilizes smaller computers for data analysis.
