US Patent:

20100100256, Apr 22, 2010

Filed:

Mar 28, 2008

Appl. No.:

12/058656

Inventors:

Jacob Curtis Jurmain - Hanover NH, US
Aaron John Powers - Arlington MA, US
Marc Vollenweider - Kirkland WA, US
Jeffrey Joseph Berkley - Seattle WA, US

International Classification:

G06F 19/00
B25J 13/02

US Classification:

701 2

Abstract:

A method for controlling one or more remote vehicles may comprise manipulating a remote dexterous control device, translating movement of the remote dexterous control device into movement of the one or more remote vehicles, and providing a sliding work window allowing control of the one or more remote vehicles' entire range of motion without sacrificing control resolution.

Appl. No.:

15/636689

Inventors:

Nicholas Cresswell Lange - Hyde Park VT, US
Ethan Goldman - Burlington VT, US
Gregory Josh Fanslow - Burlington VT, US
Jacob Curtis Jurmain - South Burlington VT, US

Assignee:

Vermont Energy Investment Corporation - Burlington VT

International Classification:

G01K 17/20

Abstract:

An assessment system and method are described that capture indoor temperature measurements and corresponding outdoor temperature measurements in order to determine a thermal efficiency of a structure. The assessment system identifies quiescent periods and trims these periods to eliminate undesirable influences such as auxiliary heating or solar gain. The quiescent periods are then compared to outdoor temperature differences to determine the thermal efficiency of the structure. The system can model the structure's performance metrics, through inferred qualitative and quantitative characterizations including, but not limited to, the building's rate of temperature change as a function of internal and external temperatures, the building's heating, cooling, and other energy needs as they relate to the building envelope, appliances, and other products used at the site and occupant behavior.
