Patents recently issued for clients of Taylor IP:

U.S. Patent No. 8,833,309, entitled “Remote animal training system using voltage-to-frequency conversion”, issued on September 16, 2014, is directed to an animal training device and system which uses a voltage to frequency conversion technology (VFC) providing the capability to adjust in gradual incremental levels upward and downward for consistent and individual electronic control of separate output to an animal undergoing training to learn new behaviors. Whether one-way or two-way remote controller with manual activation by the user, automatic activation by remote sensor detectors, or automatically activated by an on-board microprocessor circuitry sensing the animals own actions, either or all device outputs allow the animal’s caretaker the unique capability to select an appropriate level of one of a variety of cue signals at a given moment allowing the animal not to be overwhelmed or to cause any over-reactions.

U.S. Patent No. 8,828,897, entitled “Alumino-silicate glass having high thermal stability and low processing temperature”, issued on September 9, 2014, is directed to the invention relates to an alumino-silicate glass which has a thermal expansion coefficient in the range of 8 to 10.times.10.sup.-6/K in a temperature range of 20 to 300.degree. C., a transformation temperature Tg in a range of 580.degree. C. to 640.degree. C., and a processing temperature VA in a range of 1065.degree. C. to 1140.degree. C. and which can therefore be used as an alternative for soda lime glasses. An object of the invention is also the use of the inventive glasses in applications where a high temperature stability of the glasses is advantageous, in particular as substrate glass, superstrate glass and/or cover glass in the field of semiconductor technology, preferably for Cd–Te or for CIS or CIGS photovoltaic applications and for other applications in solar technology.
