Technology Description. The Pristine Sun Photovoltaic generating facility consists of a 1,824 kW (DC) / 1,520 kW (AC) solar farm utilizing single-axis Dura Track tracker technology from Array Technologies and solar modules of 290 to 320 xxxxx XX each with 25-year performance warranty. The 160 trackers are spaced approximately 16 feet between rows. Each tracker uses one A gear drive and a 1.5- 3HP, 3-phase, 480V/AC motor, rotating 60 polycrystalline PV modules per row. The trackers are controlled by a state of the art network system that communicates with each tracker in the array. In high wind conditions an anemometer mounted on site will send a signal throughout the networked system which will relay a command to field lock the trackers at a 0 degree flat stow position. The vibration driven I-beam piers are double hot dipped in a special galvanization process to prevent corrosion and are easily removed at the end of the facilities life-cycle, causing minimal impact to the land.

Technology Description. This verification statement is applicable to the XONON flameless combustion system for gas turbine applications absent the air management system. The XONON flameless combustion system is completely contained within the combustion chamber of the gas turbine. The XONON system completely combusts fuel to produce a high temperature mixture, typically about 2,400EF. Dilution air is added to shape the temperature profile required at the turbine inlet. The XONON combustor system consists of four sections: • The preburner for start-up and acceleration of the engine. The preburner tested as part of this verification was a lean, pre-mixed combustor. • The fuel injection and fuel-air mixing system. This unit injects the fuel and mixes it with the main air flow to provide a very well-mixed, uniform fuel-air mixture to the catalyst. • The XONON catalyst module, where a portion of the fuel is combusted without a flame to produce a high temperature gas. • The homogeneous combustion region, immediately downstream of the catalyst module, where the remainder of the fuel is combusted, and carbon monoxide and unburned hydrocarbons are reduced to very low levels (also a flameless combustion process). The overall combustion process in the XONON system is a partial combustion of fuel in the catalyst module followed by complete combustion downstream of the catalyst in the burnout zone. Partial combustion within the catalyst produces absolutely no NOx. Homogeneous combustion downstream of the catalyst produces only 1 to 2 ppm NOx, because combustion occurs at a uniformly low temperature. A small amount of fuel is combusted in the preburner to raise the compressed air temperature to about 880EF. This verification statement covers application of the XONON flameless combustion system to small gas turbines operated at full load when combusting natural gas.
Technology Description. A description of the technology lets investors know what they are investing in. The challenge is to keep it as short as possible, while still painting the complete picture. It should not be overly technical, but it clearly needs to describe what the technology does, what is different or new about it and why it is relevant and thus addresses an unmet user need. Novelty and radicalness As an extent of the technological description, a description of the novelty or radicalness of the innovation is important for investors before they feel confident enough to invest in the innovation. Xxxxxxx describes how new and unique the technology is, and in what way it is based on scientific findings. Radicalness indicates the compatibility with current infrastructure. A completely radical technology is not just a new technology that can potentially open up a new market, but it also disturbs the status quo and the way of doing things. Usually with completely radical innovations, new infrastructure and legislation is required, and new stakeholders will arise because of it. Completely radical technologies are very rare however, and it is not always advantageous to have a radical technology. The risks of such a technology not being successful are very high and the required time of development before it is market ready is also quite high. However, the rewards when it succeeds are very high as well. The radicalness of the technology is therefore an important factor in determining which type of investor will be willing to invest. Technological Roadmap Most likely, the majority of the time building the company will concern the technological development of the innovation. A clear overview of tasks, milestones and deliverables of this technological development is therefore very important for potential investors. A common way to map this process is though the use of Xxxxx charts. Important in such a roadmap that there is a clear overview of the different dependencies such as when task C cannot start if task A and B have not finished yet. A healthy development plan has several parallel tasks and not too many dependencies. Technological Risks Every technological development comes with risks. Having risks is not a bad thing, but having no clear overview of the possible risks or of the severity and mitigation measures of these risks is. Each risk should be described, the chance of it happening should be indicated (low, medium high) the potential effects should be described, the severity...
Technology Description. The technology licensed under this agreement is a toolkit (or “system developer’s kit” SDK) that provides application programming interfaces (API’s )t o control a media engine (ME) that has support for the following main functions: Video Encode The technology provides components that support encoding video and formatting the resultant media into an ME format. The encoding API supports selecting from a myriad of options including: – Resolution (width, from 160 to 1024, and height, from 128 to 768) – Frame rate (1-30 frames/second) – Encoding quality (essentially on a scale from 1-3 1) – Rate control bandwidth (>40 bps) – Rate control mode (none, TXX0, XXX0) – Input source (typically a local file in an AVI file format — several input codecs in this format supported as an input source) – Input source span (allows specification of a scene to encode by specifying a starting and ending AVI frame number – Quantization levels (allows restriction on range of qualities used during rate control functions) – Output destination (typically a local file set in the ME format that includes audio, video, index, and production metadata) The technology as extended by this agreement will support controlling the encoding process across a large span of AVI files to encompass the requirements of entire movie length material (at least support for two hours). The encoding process allows the media engineer to view the movie as one, seamless object even if many local disk files are required to hold it. The encoding tool contains a viewing process that allows the media engineer to index the movie. This primarily refers to selecting a frame and giving it a name or mnemonic. These indices may be used by the engineer to demark scenes and/or other control points within the encoding (viewing) process. The technology supports specifying different encoding parameters for each scene, allowing a movie to be formatted at various combinations of quality and frame rate settings. Even resolution may be changed when encoding from one scene to the next. Indices may also be used to force key frame insertion and synchronization points for other data. The encoding process automatically synchronizes audio and video that are contained in the same input source, but also supports synchronizing other forms of data. Video Archive The technology provides APIs to control the processes of uploading the ME format media into an archive that supports media distribution and rendering. The underlying engine componen...
Technology Description. Imaging Methods and Apparatus Using Model-Based Array Signal Processing US Patent 6,130,641 This invention relates generally to the field of constructing two-dimensional or three-dimensional images or maps of surfaces and objects in a volume from signals scattered by those surfaces or objects. The invention has particular application in acoustic imaging. The invention may also be applied to radar imaging. The invention may be applied to terrain mapping, object detection, object avoidance, medical ultrasound imaging and the like. This invention provides a method for imaging a region. The region may be underwater, in air or visceral. The method begins by transmitting a pulse toward the region. The pulse may be an acoustic pulse or an electromagnetic pulse. The method continues with the step of detecting a signal scattered from the region to yield a multi-channel scattering signal at a receive transducer array comprising of a plurality of N elements or N beamformed subarrays. L snapshots are obtained, where L is an integer with L>1, by sampling the scattering signal at one or more instants after transmitting the pulse to yield a plurality of complex samples. In a processing device, which may be a programmed computer, the plurality of complex samples are processed to obtain image data comprising angles of arrival from M principal scattering components, where M is an integer, with 1<M<N-1. The case where M>2 provides particular advantages over the current state of the art. Preferably the processing is performed by: constructing a sample matrix SL,M,N from the complex samples; from the sample matrix computing a null-space vector w comprising a plurality of entries; computing a plurality of roots of a polynomial formed from the entries of the null-space vector; and, from the roots of the polynomial computing angles of arrival and amplitudes for M principal scattering components. Finally, the method stores the angles of arrival and optionally the amplitudes as image data. Licensed fields-of-use: The License Agreement, as amended, includes the Swath Bathymetry field-of-use, the 3D Sidescan field-of-use and the Mine Hunting field-of-use in underwater applications where: Swath Bathymetry is an underwater field-of-use of the Licensed Patent in which the depth of the seafloor is estimated at several points across the track of a forward moving vessel or vehicle. The across-track region is called a swath and extends directly beneath and athwartships in both the port and ...

Technology Description. Building Automation Systems Overview GEMnet consists of an Information Technology (IT) infrastructure for integrated facility management. GEMnet offers a set of applications residing on a server using a common operating system and database engine. The initial applications will consist of a web-based monitoring and control program that offers two-way communication. GEMnet is one of the nation’s first systems in which multiple BAS communicate via the Internet to a high speed Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) installed at each building. Within facilities where a BACnet compliant BAS is installed, a gateway-router module provides the communication link from the DSL to the BAS. Within facilities that are not BACnet compliant, communication will use bridging-gateway devices specifically programmed to translate the GEMnet-based protocol (BACnet) to the legacy BAS protocol. Additionally, a gateway-router module has been installed at each facility to achieve an appropriate level of supervisory control and data acquisition. In practice, there is a degree of variability in how GEMnet relates to individual facilities; i.e., the degree of controllability as opposed to simple data acquisition. Reasons for this difference range from limitations of each to facility operator and management practices. In part, the intent of the project is to be cooperative with and adaptive to the requests of local Property Management Offices. The GEMnet regional infrastructure (software, database design, and server hosting) is being developed on a path parallel with necessary systems, controls, instrumentation, and programming upgrades at individual facilities. As mentioned above, the GEMnet infrastructure is designed around an open protocol basis, utilizing the BACnet communications protocol and ODBC applications. The network is anticipated to be capable of incorporating other open communication protocols. Legacy proprietary systems will be incorporated through the use of gateway technologies. The open protocol structure should minimize difficulties communicating with entities such as local utilities and scheduling coordinators. The network is being developed with the objective of maintaining as much competition as possible among local vendors for future installation and support work. GEMnet includes a data collection program that uses a BACnet protocol stack tool, which reads BACnet objects and stores the data in a central SQL Server database. The BACnet-Reader program resides on a computer ...
