Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method is provided. The method comprises: receiving thermal energy at a heat resistant container; converting all or a portion of the received thermal energy into electric energy; converting the electric energy into electromagnetic energy; and radiating the electromagnetic energy.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A vehicle recorder, comprising: a crash survivable memory system (CSMS) comprising: a transmitter system; a crash protected memory system (CPMS); and a transceiver system; and a first heat absorber surrounding the CSMS; a thermoelectric generator surrounding the first heat absorber to absorb and convert, at least in part, heat that passes through a thermal insulator and electrically coupled to and configured to provide power to the transmitter system; and an impact resistant enclosure, part or all of which is permeable to electromagnetic spectrum in which the transmitter system transmits, where the impact resistant enclosure surrounds the thermoelectric generator. 2. The vehicle recorder of claim 1 , further comprising a second heat absorber surrounding the CSMS, and which is surrounded by the first heat absorber. 3. The vehicle recorder of claim 1 , wherein the transmitter system is configured to transmit electromagnetic energy in the ultra low frequency through millimeter wave wavelength spectrum. 4. The vehicle recorder of claim 1 , further comprising a thermal insulator surrounding the thermoelectric generator. 5. The vehicle recorder of claim 1 , wherein the thermoelectric generator is a Peltier cooling system. 6. The vehicle recorder of claim 4 , where the thermal insulator comprises ceramic. 7. The vehicle recorder of claim 2 , wherein the second heat absorber comprises phase change material. 8. The vehicle recorder of claim 1 , wherein the first heat absorber comprises a metallic microlattice.
