Latest Patents

One of his latest patents is a coating designed to reduce friction on skis and snowboards. This polymer coating is applied to the load-bearing surfaces of these objects, utilizing a drag-reducing, water-soluble long-chain polymer such as polyethylene oxide. The coating dissolves into the thin layer of water that forms between the contact surface and the snow or ice, effectively decreasing friction and improving performance. Another notable patent is a system for monitoring surface stress and other conditions in structures. This system employs a printed circuit board (PCB) mounted at the surface of the structure, with a single crystal silicon piece in contact with it. An infrared source illuminates the silicon, while an infrared detector monitors isochromatic fringe patterns, providing direct indications of stress at the surface.
