Abstract: Compositions containing fenugreek and other bioactive ingredients are combined with effective masking agents to prepare a liquid beverage having a palatable flavor. Vitamins minerals, extracts and other bioactive ingredients may be added to further enhance the properties of the nutritional supplement composition. The masking agents include glycyrrhizzic acid, citric acid, malic acid, as well as other sweeteners and flavoring agents. The synergistic interactions between the flavoring agents and the active ingredients including fenugreek eliminate the unpleasant taste generally associated with fenugreek without denigrating its positive benefits.

Abstract: A high resolution 3-D holographic camera. A reference spot on a target is illuminated by three spatially separated beamlets (simultaneously produced from a single laser beam), producing a lateral shear of a wavefront on the target. The camera measures the resulting reflected speckle intensity pattern which are related the gradient of the interfered complex fields. At the same time a flood beam illuminates the entire target and reflected speckle is also recorded by the same camera to provide the necessary object spatial frequencies. The illumination patterns are sequenced in time, stepping through offset phase shifts to provide data necessary to reconstruct an image of the target from the recorded reflected light. The reference spot phase and amplitude are then reconstructed, and the reference spot's complex field is then digitally interfered with the flood illuminated speckle field by use of a special algorithm. In order to obtain a high resolution 3D image of the target, a second measurement is acquired with the laser beam slightly shifted in frequency to second color.

Abstract: A large clear aperture cat's eye retro-reflector system that improves the optical efficiency by two orders of magnitude over conventional cat's eye retro-reflectors. It achieves this increase by using a wide-angle lens design with a curved focal plane, so the entrance aperture is not limited by the design constraints of a solid glass sphere. Since light reflected from a retro-reflector increases as the fourth power of the reflector aperture, light reflected from the retro-reflector of the present invention is increased by two orders of magnitude as compared to the prior art cat's eye retro-reflector of conventional size. When used as a communication device, the retro-reflector is preferably modulated by a quantum well modulator providing very high speed communication. In preferred embodiments a moving quantum well modulator is placed near the focal plane, where the beam footprint is much smaller than the entrance aperture, effectively allowing a small modulator to modulate a large diameter beam. A tracking system tracks the source of interrogating beams and positions the small modulator to intersect the incoming beam near the focal plane where the beam footprint is very small.

Abstract: A system and process for converting a series of short-exposure, small-FOV zoom images to pristine, high-resolution images, of a face, license plate, or other targets of interest, within a fraction of a second. The invention takes advantage or the fact that some regions in a telescope field of view can be super-resolved; that is, features will appear in random regions which have resolution better than the diffraction limit of the telescope. This effect arises because the turbulent layer in the near-field of the object can act as a lens, focusing rays ordinarily outside the diffraction-limited cone into the distorted image. The physical effect often appears as magnified sub-regions of the image, as if one had held up a magnifying glass to a portion of the image. Applicants have experimentally shown these effects on short-range anisoplanatic imagery, along a horizontal path over the desert. In addition, they have developed powerful parallel processing software to overcome the warping and produce sharp images.

Abstract: An automatic celestial navigation system for navigating both night and day by observation of K-band or H-band infrared light from multiple stars. One or more telescopes mounted on a movable platform such as a ship or airplane and directed at a substantially different portion of sky. Telescope optics focus (on to a pixel array of a sensor) H-band or K-band light from one or more stars in multiple telescopic fields of view.

Abstract: An automatic celestial navigation system for navigating both night and day by observation of K-band or H-band infrared light from multiple stars. In a first set of preferred embodiments three relatively large aperture telescopes are rigidly mounted on a movable platform such as a ship or airplane with each telescope being directed at a substantially different portion of sky. Embodiments in this first set tend to be relatively large and heavy, such as about one cubic meter and about 60 pounds. In a second set of preferred embodiments one or more smaller aperture telescopes are pivotably mounted on a movable platform such as a ship, airplane or missile so that the telescope or telescopes can be pivoted to point toward specific regions of the sky. Embodiments of this second set are mechanically more complicated than those of the first set, but are much smaller and lighter and are especially useful for guidance of aircraft and missiles. Telescope optics focus (on to a pixel array of a sensor) H-band or K-band light from one or more stars in the field of view of each telescope. Each system also includes a GPS sensor and a computer processor having access to catalogued infrared star charts. The processor for each system is programmed with special algorithms to use image data from the infrared sensors, position and timing information from the GPS sensor, and the catalogued star charts information to determine orientation (attitude) of the platform. Direction information from two stars is needed for locating the platform with respect to the celestial sphere. The computer is also preferably programmed to calculate further information which may be used by a guidance control system. These systems provide efficient alternatives to inertial navigation systems when such systems are too expensive and can be used for periodic augmentation and calibration of inertial navigation systems.
