Abstract
Embodiments of transparent ceramic particles are described. A particle includes an outer shell having an outer surface and an inner surface forming a hollow core; and a response unit housed inside the hollow core. The outer shell comprises aluminum oxynitride.
Claims20
A particle, comprising:
- an outer shell having an outer surface and an inner surface forming a hollow core;
- and
- a response unit housed inside the hollow core;
- wherein the outer shell comprises aluminum oxynitride.
1 more element
A system for sensing and providing a controlled response to changes in a particle environment, comprising:
- a particle, comprising:
- an outer shell and a hollow inner core, and a response unit housed inside the hollow inner core;
- a sensor disposed on or within the particle;
- and
- an external excitation source;
- wherein:
- the sensor determines the amplitude and frequency of a wave pattern of a force received by the particle;
- the external excitation source activates the response unit to respond in a response pattern based on the determined amplitude and frequency of the wave pattern;
- and
- the response pattern is inverse to the wave pattern of the force received by the particle.

A system for sensing and providing a controlled response to changes in a particle environment, comprising:
- a particle, comprising:
- an outer shell and a hollow inner core, and a response unit housed inside the hollow inner core;
- an external excitation source;
- and
- a sensor;
- wherein:
- the sensor determines the frequency and amplitude of a force received upon the particle;
- the response unit is activated by the external excitation source, the activation causing an ascertainable reaction by the response unit;
- and
- the response unit pulsates in a pattern, the pattern attenuating the force received upon the particle.
