Mar 16, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/808973
Inventors:
Robert V. Belenger - Raynham MA, US
Gennaro R. Lopriore - Somerset MA, US
International Classification:
H03G003/00
US Classification:
381104, 381105, 381107
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for remotely and automatically adjusting the volume of a remotely controlled audio device. In one embodiment, the apparatus comprises a sensor circuit for continuously detecting audio signals generated by the audio device, a difference circuit for determining the difference between the amplitude of the detected audio signals and a reference audio signal amplitude and for outputting a signal that represents this difference, a difference signal transfer circuit having an input for receiving the difference signal and an output wherein the difference signal is coupled to the output when the sensor circuit outputs a signal that indicates an audio signal has been detected, and a control circuit for generating a control signal that effects attenuation, augmentation or maintenance of the amplitude of the audio signals generated by the audio device in accordance with the difference signal when the sensor circuit detects an audio signal.

Speech To Visual Aid Translator Assembly And Method

View page
US Patent:
7110946, Sep 19, 2006
Filed:
Nov 12, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/292955
Inventors:
Robert V. Belenger - Raynham MA, US
Gennaro R. Lopriore - Somerset MA, US
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy - Washington DC
International Classification:
G10L 15/00
US Classification:
704235, 704251
Abstract:
A speech to visual display translator assembly and method for converting spoken words directed to an operator into essentially simultaneous visual displays wherein the spoken words are presented in phonems and variations in loudness and tone, and/or other characteristics of phonemes displayed, are presented visually by the display.

Automatic Multi-Language Phonetic Transcribing System

View page
US Patent:
7143033, Nov 28, 2006
Filed:
Apr 3, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/124706
Inventors:
Robert V. Belenger - Raynham MA, US
Gennaro R. Lopriore - Somerset MA, US
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy - Washington DC
International Classification:
G10L 15/26
US Classification:
704235, 704246
Abstract:
A multi-language phonetic transcribing system and method are provided for automatically transcribing speech into a phonetic equivalent. The phonetic transcribing system need only be able to recognize the limited number of phonemes of a particular language, e. g. , the forty-two phonemes in the English language. Each language to be translated may be broken down into the phonetic elements and stored in a phonetic library for that language. The transcribing system detects speech, converts the speech to an electrical signal, and analyzes the frequency, amplitude, and timing characteristics of the speech to produce incoming phoneme information. The incoming phoneme information is compared to the phonetic elements in the active library. A correlator determines the degree of correlation between the incoming phoneme information and the stored information for each phoneme in the library. For each match, based on the degree of correlation, a respective phoneme is preferably stored and/or printed.

Discriminating Speech To Touch Translator Assembly And Method

View page
US Patent:
7155389, Dec 26, 2006
Filed:
Nov 12, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/292953
Inventors:
Robert V. Belenger - Raynham MA, US
Gennaro R. Lopriore - Somerset MA, US
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy - Washington DC
International Classification:
G10L 15/00
US Classification:
704251
Abstract:
A speech to touch translator assembly and method for converting spoken words directed to an operator into tactile sensations caused by combinations of pressure point exertions on the body of the operator, each combination of pressure points exerted signifying a phoneme of one of the spoken words, and sound characteristics superimposed on the spoken words, permitting comprehension of spoken words, and the speaker thereof, by persons that are deaf and blind.

US Patent:
7721843, May 25, 2010
Filed:
Feb 8, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/357470
Inventors:
Robert V. Belenger - Raynham MA, US
Gennaro Lopriore - Somerset MA, US
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Navy - Washington DC
International Classification:
A61B 7/02
A61B 5/02
A61B 5/024
A61B 7/04
US Classification:
181131, 381 67, 600528, 600523
Abstract:
A visual-acoustic device is provided that contains an acoustic detector to produce sound waves in communication with a moiré pattern generator that produces moiré patterns corresponding to the sound waves. The device includes a rigid plate having a first repetitive pattern and a flexible plate spaced from the rigid, plate and having a second repetitive pattern corresponding to the first repetitive pattern. The sound waves induce movement of the flexible plate such that the second repetitive pattern moves with respect to the first repetitive pattern to produce the moiré pattern. The visual-acoustic device can be arranged as a visual-acoustic stethoscope.

Resettable Fuse/Circuit Interrupter With Visual Fault Indication

View page
US Patent:
20030128095, Jul 10, 2003
Filed:
Oct 10, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/977901
Inventors:
Robert Belenger - Raynham MA, US
Gennaro Lopriore - Somerset MA, US
International Classification:
H01H071/16
H01H071/04
US Classification:
337/089000, 337/053000, 337/036000, 337/206000
Abstract:
A circuit interrupter device protects a load circuit from excessive, or overloading levels of current, provides a visual indication of circuit overload and open circuit, and can be reset. A multi-metallic heat reactive strip is snapped by an overload current to open the load circuit and close a light emitter circuit having a current limiting resistor connected to an indicator lamp that provides a visual indication of the open circuit. The multi-metallic strip is manually reset via a push button to open the light emitter circuit and extinguish the indicator lamp and close the load circuit to reestablish operation therein. The circuit interruption device can be made utilizing currently available technology for miniature fusing in tight, confining spaces and/or assemblies that have unusual shapes that restrict access in automobile electrical systems, test instruments, domestic appliances or many other electronic/electrical circuits.
