Abstract:
A self-stabilizing small arm having a barrel assembly rigidly connected to a stock assembly. The small arm includes at least one shooter interface surface and a stabilization assembly controlling the relative position of the shooter interface surface and the barrel assembly or stock assembly. The stabilization assembly includes (i) at least one movement sensor; (ii) at least one actuator; and (iii) a controller using signals from the movement sensor to operate the actuator in order to compensate for unintended movement of the small arm.

International Classification:
G08B 6/00
Abstract:
The tactile feedback actuator generally has a stopper, a damper, a hammer path between the stopper and the damper, a coil element fixedly mounted relative to the hammer path, and a magnetic hammer guidingly mounted for movement along the hammer path. The magnetic hammer has two opposite ends. Each end of the magnetic hammer has a corresponding permanent magnet. The two permanent magnets have opposing polarities. The magnetic hammer is electromagnetically engageable by a magnetic field emitted upon activation of the coil element so as to be longitudinally slid along the hammer path in any one of two opposite directions depending on a polarity of activation of the coil element. The stopper has a striking surface adapted for stopping the magnetic hammer, and the damper is adapted for decelerating the magnetic hammer as the magnetic hammer is longitudinally slid towards the damper.

Abstract:
A signal generator generates an electrical signal that is sent to an amplifier, which increases the power of the signal using power from a power source. The amplified signal is fed to a sender transducer to generate ultrasonic waves that can be focused and sent to a receiver. The receiver transducer converts the ultrasonic waves back into electrical energy and stores it in an energy storage device, such as a battery, or uses the electrical energy to power a device. In this way, a device can be remotely charged or powered without having to be tethered to an electrical outlet.
