advancing the common good

Applied Technology Products, Inc. (ATP), provides high quality aerospace, biotechnology, computing and telecommunications consulting services to non-military, non-religious and non-government clients on an hourly or project basis, and applies new advancements in science and technology in the development of restorative and sustainable products.

Applied Technology Products enjoys challenging, fast paced, high risk, high technology projects.

ATP can rapidly research, design, develop, prototype, validate and document almost anything!

If you know what you want, we can probably find it, adapt something else to accomplish the same functions - or create a new one from scratch.

ATP is currently accepting new projects.

However, when outside work is unavailable, ATP develops new products in-house. Of special interest are restorative products and low cost retrofits to existing technologies such as homes, automobiles and airliners that reduce or eliminate greenhouse pollutant production and release.

 Solar Walls (Passive Solar Retrofit)

ATP's Solar Wall is a retrofittable, low tech, solar collector designed to provide heat in the winter and electricity in the summer, employing primarily easily accessible recycled materials and a purpose designed microprocessor control system.

Indoor environmental control is an important contributor to atmospheric warming because the primary means of providing indoor heat worldwide is the combustion of fuels such as natural gas, propane and wood. The use of combustion-based technologies for indoor environmental control consumes (primarily non-renewable) fuel resources and disrupts environmental conditions essential to human life on earth by releasing “greenhouse” pollutants such as carbon dioxide.

The Solar Wall system is solar powered, uses common building materials and one or more small, microprocessor controlled fans to capture energy associated with the heating of surfaces receiving direct sunlight. While the Solar Wall system primarily provides combustion-free heat, in some geographical areas it can provide cooling by running at night. Whether heating or cooling, the system reduces the need to combust fuels to manage indoor temperatures, saving money, reducing fuel consumption and preventing the release of greenhouse gasses and heat into the atmosphere.

The Solar Wall employs one or more microprocessor controlled fans to circulate air behind tightly sealed interior and exterior false walls, transferring heat from the exterior of the structure to the interior of the structure – or vice versa. The system’s sensors compare indoor/outdoor temperatures and air temperatures behind the indoor and outdoor false wall. The microprocessor energizes the fan to move heat indoors during winter (daytime operation) or out during summer (operating at night when the outdoor temperature is significantly lower than indoor temperatures).

During summer, air heated and pressurized in the Solar Wall could create a temperature differential to power thermoelctric modules and or vented through one or more recycled personal computer fans as a means of generating electricity. Therefore, the Solar Wall system can provide both heat and electricity and should be a useful addition to distributed energy systems, especially in the context of its use of recycled materials and simple construction.

The Solar Wall device turns insolated surfaces such (such as a buildings south facing wall) into a solar hot air collector, capturing heated air at the surface and transferring it to a layer or layers of standard gypsum wallboard that constitute the indoor false wall. In return for a slight reduction in interior space (or the reconfiguration of internal wallts to act as vents for the solar heated air), interior walls of Solar Wall equipped home radiate heat into the interior space and stores captured heat in the thermal mass of interior gypsum wallboard, thereby continuing (at least temporarily) to provide a heat source even when exterior conditions no longer support heat capture such as after sunset.

Contractors and homeowners should be able to easily install the Solar Wall system disassembling the exterior wall covering, installing the microprocessor/battery/fan module (simple enough to be built from a kit) between existing studs, mounting the controller on an interior wall, constructing the interior and exterior false walls, replacing the existing siding, paint, wallpaper etc. and mounting the external solar panel.

While exterior surfaces could retain their original appearance despite minor modifications to improve heat capture and transfer, more extensive modifications (such as covering the insolated false wall with recycled sliding glass door sections) could significantly improve the efficiency of the system.

Solar Walls can retain the original appearance of the structure, employ off the shelf materials such as standard wallboard and exterior sheathing materials, and are larger, less expensive and easier to build, install and operate than standard solar hot air panels. In addition, it should be possible to design the microprocessor/battery/fan module such that it operates efficiently with a wide variety of recycled personal computer parts such as batteries and fans, removing them from the waste stream.

The Solar Wall system is an example of an ATP developed alternative energy product that accomplishes numerous goals and while meeting diverse needs. ATP is capable of developing products meeting a wide range of needs in a large number of technologies. We hope you will contact us if you are interested in the Solar Wall system, or any other ATP developed technology.

 MISSILE (Medical Bionanotechnology)

Employing lesion location and cell identification capability from tomography, biopsy and cell surface marker technologies, the Minimally Invasive Surgical System, Ionic Liquids Employing (MISSILE) dissolves cells targeted for excision on the molecular (nano) scale. Through an ultra fine computer directed probe, MISSILE delivers biologically active chemicals that detect and destroy pathological cells, aspirating away dissolved cell debris.

The integrated MISSILE tests for targeted cells by exposing cells at the surgical site to a solution of individually prepared (from biopsy tissue ) specific, photoactive cell marker complexes, washing away excess cell marker solution, illuminating the field and sensing the presence of bound photoactive cell markers. Upon the detection bound cell markers, the MISSILE releases strong acids, bases or enzymes in solution directly onto the targeted cells, dissolving the cells and removing them through the suction powered central drain. Because these solutions contain little more than molecules in solution, the catheter through which they flow can be extremely small.

Manufactured by extrusion and less than 0.5 mm in diameter, the catheter consists of a central drain surrounded by numerous conduction channels through which the cell marker and dissolving solutions pass, as well as conductive components capable of accomplishing cautery, or the in situ electro-synthesis of cell dissolving liquids. Since the catheter need carry only liquids and electronic conductors, its diameter can be very small.

Placement of the catheter occurs by releasing the tissue dissolving solutions and aspirating the resultant dissolved cell solution while advancing the catheter toward the site. Asymmetric release of the cell dissolving solution, i.e. in only one quadrant of the advancing tip, accomplishes catheter steering.

Once in place, testing for targeted cells, dissolution of marked cells and removal of the resulting dissolved cells solution through the drain occurs under the control of a computer/software/actuator system, which employs imaging and other data about the targeted lesion to place the catheter, and asymmetrically release the cell dissolving solution such that it dissolves only targeted cells. The computer control system iterates placement, testing, dissolution and dissolved cell removal until released photoactive cell markers no longer bind targeted cells, and recovered volume matches lesion volume plus induced volume.

Then, the control system removes the catheter, releasing a solution of methylmethacrylate glue, antibiotics and or other solutions that facilitate healing of the wound during removal. Due to the small diameter of the catheter, the entry wound would be so small it might not even need a band-aid.

The MISSILE performs automated, minimally invasive, highly specific surgery employing “cutting” implements (the cell dissolving solutions) that are much smaller than individual cells. The integrated MISSILE should be highly specific, capable of autonomous function and be extremely accurate and precise in the excision of targeted cells. In addition, the system should also be capable of removing non-tissue objects, such as bullets, from extremely difficult, currently “inoperable” locations, although the removal of extremely dense matter will probably require that the device remain in place and functioning over long periods oof time.

The automated MISSILE employs molecules to accurately and precisely detect and excise cells, tissues and foreign bodies at the nanoscale, transcending modern surgical practice by making the “scalpel” much smaller than individual cells. Potential benefits include the reduction of pain, morbidity, mortality, inpatient stays and surgery related expenses.

Please note that although this abstract and the associated image describe an integrated, automated surgical instrument capable of performing extremely accurate and precise excision of tissues at the cellular scale, the simplest embodiement of the device is an "acid scalpel" capable of creating extremely fine incisions and or highly controllable deep tissue biopsies etc., and the proposed device includes a wide variety of technologies useful alone or in combination when integrated into specialized surgical tools.

The MISSILE 'acid scalpel' surgical system is an example of an ATP developed medical that capable of providing a wide range of functions, from simple to extremely complex. ATP is capable of developing products meeting a wide range of needs in a large number of technologies and we hope you will contact us if you are interested in the MISSILE system, or any other ATP developed technology.
