| Counsel: | Firm: ALLEN, DYER, DOPPELT + GILCHRIST, P.A. |
| 1st Invent: | Jose Antonio Alva (North Port, FL) |
| Inventors: | Genders: F=0, M=1 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | A slab processing machine includes a work table, a machining head and drive mechanism. A controller operates the machining head to mill a section of the rough side opposite the finished face of the slab that is positioned upside down on vacuum pods on the work table using a milling wheel received within the machining head, corresponding to side edge areas of a finished cut slab and lamination strips configured to build up the side edge areas of the finished cut slab. The machining head cuts the slab using a circular saw blade that had been switched out and received within the machining head into a final geometrical form for the finished cut slab and into the lamination strips. |

| Counsel: | Firm: Cook Alex Ltd. |
| 1st Invent: | Alex J. Falesch (Naples, FL) |
| Inventors: | Genders: F=0, M=2 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | A landing pad receives and stores packages delivered from an aerial vehicle or awaiting pickup from an aerial vehicle. The landing pad can be placed outside of a window and can contain a transmitter for sending out an identification signal via radio frequency to aid aerial vehicles in finding the landing pad. The landing pad contains a landing platform with a trapdoor that leads to a storage compartment. The trapdoor can be configured to only open when it receives a signal from an authorized aerial vehicle. The storage compartment can be accessed via a storage compartment door which can contain a locking mechanism. The storage compartment can be climate controlled. The landing pad can also have a transmitter that emits sounds to discourage animals from nesting on or near the landing pad. The landing pad can also include a solar power generator as a source of electrical energy. |

| 1st Invent: | Jennica Pounds (Cape Coral, FL) |
| Inventors: | Genders: F=1, M=3 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | A hand-tracking platform generates gesture components for use as user inputs into an application of an Augmented Reality (AR) system. In some examples, the hand-tracking platform generates real-world scene environment frame data based on gestures being made by a user of the AR system using a camera component of the AR system. The hand-tracking platform recognizes a gesture component based on the real-world scene environment frame data and generates gesture component data based on the gesture component. The application utilizes the gesture component data as user input in a user interface of the application. |
