The present invention is related to a compact, portable, user-friendly sleep disorder diagnosis and screening device. The present invention is further related to a single-ended respiratory inductance plethysmography belt used to monitor certain parameters of a subject's respiration while at the same time serving to position and mechanically stabilize a compact data acquisition system about a subject's thorax or abdomen. In one application of the present invention to screen for sleep disorders, the single-ended respiratory inductance plethysmography belt is worn by the subject and a compact data acquisition unit is attached to the belt to which appropriate additional sensors and components such as a pulse oximeter and a nasal cannula are connected. Data is then collected using the belt, compact data acquisition unit, and sensors and is used to determine whether the subject has, or is at risk of having, a sleep disorder.

Device for sleep diagnosis

Unmanned systems, and primarily vehicles, and in most embodiments unmanned aerial systems (UAS), as well as novel guided and unguided munitions are presented herein. to the two combine to present unmanned weaponized systems that not only carry weapons functionality, but allow for advanced observation and reconnaissance. These unmanned systems are largely directed toward military applications where the weaponized unmanned system may be forward deployed to allow human warfighters to remain at long range distances from the potential targets, and to provide surveillance, target identification and tracking, general reconnaissance information, and the like, while also providing weaponized attack capabilities. The unmanned systems may, in some embodiments, include advanced command and control capabilities for communication between the system and the remote, rear-positioned warfighter, and between separate elements of the unmanned system. Many embodiments also include weapons systems, munitions, or rounds with guidance and real-time maneuverability capabilities as well.

Weaponized unmanned vehicles, weapons release systems, and low-cost munitions for remotely engaging one or more targets

Inertial measurement units (IMUs) and methods with adaptations to eliminate or minimize sensor error, offset, or bias shift are presented. More particularly, the IMUs and methods for gun-fired projectiles herein are particularly adapted to accurately measure forces and to prevent or minimize the error, offset, or bias shift associated with events exhibiting high g shock, and/or high levels of vibration, and/or rotation. Even more particularly, the IMUs and methods herein utilize novel IMU packaging adapted to prevent or minimize sensor error, offset, or bias shift, and recalibration adaptations and methods adapted to correct or reset the error, offset, or bias shift from such an event. The IMUs are adapted to provide accurate measurements prior to, during and after such event, and to provide continuous accurate measurements during flight of gun-fired projectiles.

Enhanced performance inertial measurement unit (IMU) system and method for error, offset, or drift correction or prevention

The present invention relates to a sensor suite comprising at least one sensor. More particularly, the present invention relates to a sensor suite for measuring absolute and/or relative position, location and orientation of an object on or in which the sensor suite is employed. The present invention further relates to improved, novel sensor types for use in the sensor suite. More particularly, the present invention relates to an improved, novel magnetometer that is self-calibrating and scalable. Still more particularly, the present invention relates to such a magnetometer that is miniaturized. Further embodiments of the present invention relate to systems and methods for providing location and guidance, and more particularly for providing location and guidance in environments where global position systems (GPS) are unavailable or unreliable (GPS denied and/or degraded environments).

Systems and methods for providing location and guidance are herein described, and more particularly for providing location and guidance in environments where global position systems (GPS) are unavailable or unreliable (GPS denied and/or degraded environments). The systems and methods herein utilize inertial measurement units (IMUs) to provide such location and guidance. More particularly, the systems and methods herein utilize a series of low-accuracy or low-resolution IMUs, in combination, to provide high-accuracy or high-resolution location and guidance results.

Multi-IMU guidance system and methods for high-accuracy location and guidance performance in GPS denied and/or degraded environments

The present invention relates to systems and methods for assessing brain health and detecting neurological conditions. The invention more particularly relates to systems and methods for diagnosing neurological conditions and analyzing rain health from analysis of a biological fluid sample, such as a saliva sample, that looks for and determines the significance of peripheral markers of blood-brain barrier disruption. The present invention further provides a diagnostic system and method with a higher negative predictive value of brain injury than currently known tests are able to provide, so as to reduce the need for computerized tomography or magnetic resonance imaging scans to affirmatively determine that brain or cerebrovascular injury has not occurred, and thus to improve suspected brain injury patient health care while reducing the expense of such care.

Presented herein are systems and methods using inertial measurement units (IMUs) for providing location and guidance, and more particularly for providing location and guidance in environments where global position systems (GPS) are unavailable or unreliable (GPS denied and/or degraded environments), and for such location and guidance being provided to projectiles, munitions, or rounds that are released, fired, or deployed from vehicles or weapons systems. More particularly, this disclosure relates to the use of a series of low-accuracy or low-resolution IMUs, in combination, to provide high-accuracy or high-resolution location and guidance results. This further relates to an electronics-control system for handing off control of the measurement and guidance of a body in flight between groups or subgroups of IMUs to alternate between high dynamic range/lower resolution and lower dynamic range/higher resolution measurement and guidance as the environment dictates.
