A passive electronic marker comprising a single tuned LC circuit, having an inductance and one capacitance element, that respond substantially uniformly to a marker locating instrument irrespective of the orientation the marker was installed in. The inductance is split among more than one electrically contiguous coils; each of the coils is oriented in different axes along the three dimensional space to achieve the substantially uniform response to a marker locating instrument. The tuned circuit is enclosed in a protective housing that may or may not help in the orientation of the marker during burying. The passive marker is of a type that is buried relative to portions of an object for use in locating such objects when necessary.
The invention is an augmented stop sign that functions more like a traffic signal light commonly used on road junctions in place of existing passive stop signs. The cost of the stop sign is extremely less than a typical existing traffic signal system at a junction and the time and effort involved in installation and maintenance is similar to that of installing an existing stop sign.

Abstract:
Described herein is an apparatus and method for characterizing the precise dimensions of a pair of eyeglass frames, including that of the internal setting groove, through a non-mechanical measurement mechanism. The intended spatial resolution in all three orthogonal axes (x, y, & z) is better than 50 microns (millionths of a meter).

Abstract:
An apparatus and method for converting audio signals to power supply signals that includes a step-up transformer, rectifier, and energy storage device on each channel, and uses information on one channel to control the output voltage sources.
Method And Apparatus For Tone Tracing And Tagging Using Mobile Computer Device
The industry practice to detect and identify objects such as wires, cables, pipes and tuned coils is to inject a known tone from a tone generator into the object by conduction or induction, occasionally with tagging information. The invention is a tone detection apparatus, also known as the tone probe, to detect the presence of such injected tones that makes use of a microphone or audio electrical input of a mobile computer and software application running on the mobile computer such as a contemporary “smart-phone”. The use of a mobile computer reduces the cost of this tone probe and provides the ability to use mobile internet connection to communicate and store the tagging and location information about object under detection. The display of the mobile computer allows providing more information than a typical tone probe.
