Filed:

Dec 28, 1998

Appl. No.:

09/222260

Inventors:

Andrew Kaliszek - Phoenix AZ
Matthew Olson - Glendale AZ

Assignee:

Honeywell International Inc. - Morristown NJ

International Classification:

G02B 616

US Classification:

385137, 385134

Abstract:

An adhesive system for use in minimizing the negative environmental influences on a fiber optic gyroscope comprises a free-standing substantially cylindrical sensing coil having an inner coil surface, a rigid substantially cylindrical coil-supporting structure or hub having a cylindrical wall and an outer surface, a plurality of grooves formed into the hubs outer surface, a plurality of slots formed into the outer surface of hub and an adhesive affixing hub to coil. Adhesive may be injected into manifolds located in the cylindrical wall of hub , travel through the slots into a gap existing between coil and hub. Excess adhesive may flow into grooves. Different orientations and sizes of grooves and slots , different types and amounts of adhesive , and different thicknesses of adhesive between the coil and hub may be used to achieve suitable adhesion. The adhesive system may further include a stress buffer and an additional adhesive to further minimize environmental influences on coil. Specifically, a first adhesive affixes the inner surface of buffer to the outer surface of hub.

International Classification:

G01B009/02

US Classification:

356460, 356483

Abstract:

A magnetic shielding system for a fiber optic gyroscope is disclosed. The fiber optic gyroscope may have a sensing coil with a sensing axis. An exemplary magnetic shield may enclose the sensing coil and have a layer including a plurality of pieces connected at a seam. A portion of the seam may be substantially parallel to the sensing axis of the sensing coil. Also, the pieces may be connected together such that each piece has a portion of each of two sides and a wall of the magnetic shield. Additionally, multiple layers having orthogonal seams may be utilized with the magnetic shield.

International Classification:

H04N 7/16

US Classification:

725 1, 725 78, 725 82, 705 27, 705 34

Abstract:

A system for delivering digital content on demand in a multiple unit environment includes a server local to the multiple unit environment. The server stores, in its memory, the digital content, and is capable of supporting multiple simultaneous asynchronous accesses to the digital content. A billing system tracks the bill for each unit in the multiple unit environment, based on the accessed digital content. Within each unit that supports access to the digital content, an access system (preferably a set-top box) allows a user to access the digital content.

Assignee:

Honeywell International Inc. - Morristown NJ

International Classification:

G01C 19/72

US Classification:

356460, 356465

Abstract:

A fiber optic gyroscope (FOG) includes a sensing coil with a particular magnetic sensitivity magnitude and direction with respect to the geometric axis of the sensing coil. The FOG also includes a plurality of magnetic compensators. Each magnetic compensator is fabricated so as to have a particular magnetic sensitivity magnitude and direction, the magnitude being comparable to that of the sensing coil, with large tolerances relative to the magnitude and direction. The compensators are positioned relative to one another and to the sensing coil such that the combined magnetic sensitivities of the compensators cancel the magnetic sensitivity of the sensing coil.

Assignee:

Honeywell International, Inc. - Morristown NJ

International Classification:

G02B 6/00

US Classification:

385138, 385134

Abstract:

Methods and apparatus are provided for a seal assembly that includes a first plate, a second plate, and compliant material. The first and second plates each have a first side, a second side, and a channel extending therebetween. The channel includes a first cross-sectional area proximate the first side and a second cross-sectional area that is proximate the second side. The first cross-sectional area is greater than a second cross-sectional area. The compliant material is disposed between the first and second plates and is at least partially within the first plate channel and the second plate channel.

International Classification:

G01C 19/72

US Classification:

356465

Abstract:

A sensing coil is provided for optically guiding counter-propagating light beams in a fiber optic gyroscope. The sensing coil comprises a plurality of layers of an optical fiber having a winding direction. The plurality of layers comprises inner layers, middle layers, and outer layers. The middle layers comprise first and second input ends configured to receive the counter-propagating light beams. At least one of the inner layers, middle layers, and outer layers is coupled with a different one of the inner layers, middle layers, and outer layers while maintaining the winding direction. A method is provided for winding an optical fiber, having first and second connecting ends, to form a sensing coil for a fiber optic gyroscope having a winding direction. The method comprises excluding first and second segments from a middle layer of the sensing coil to produce first and second inputs and third and fourth connecting ends respectively adjacent to the first and second inputs, and coupling each of the connecting ends with a different one of the connecting ends while maintaining the winding direction.

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and apparatus for providing assistance to a user of a mobile application are described. A request to establish a session for a single mobile application executing on a mobile device is received on a remote device via an application programming interface (API) that is integrated with the single mobile application. Information from the single mobile application is received on the remote device via the API, the information including information about the single mobile application. A command is sent from the remote device to the mobile device, causing the mobile device to execute the command in the single mobile application.
