Abstract: In one aspect, a swimjet system may include a reverse thrust system worn by a swimmer proximate the frontal upper torso. The system provides a variable amount of reverse thrust such that the user can swim-in-place or make gradual forward progress. Importantly, this may enable a user to effectively “extend” a small residential pool to serve the same function as a twenty-five meter pool typically found at commercial or government facilities. The system also provides laminar current under the user while swimming, which solves the problems of “leg drop,” the need to “out-kick” the arm stroke, and turbulence and wave action around the head associated with conventional swim-in-place devices. Still further, in certain embodiments the system provides a relatively strong current in the region of the arm stroke moving away from the swimmer which provides enhanced “resistance” for proficient swimmers.

Abstract: A one-piece swimsuit has a tubular member having a first panel and second panel. The first panel extends to a lower edge having a first band portion. A flap portion is connected to the second panel and extends downwardly past the plane of the lower edge to an upper edge having a second band portion. The flap portion has an opened and closed position. The swimsuit includes a fastening system having first magnetic means for releasably fastening the flap portion in the closed position, and second magnetic means for releasably fastening the flap portion in the opened position. The first and second magnetic means include the first and second band portions respectively, a thin strip integrally coupled within each band portion, a plurality of magnetic elements, a plurality of spaced pockets attached to each strip for encasing each magnetic element, and a cover layer bonded to the strip.

Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamically controlling chlorinator operations based on chlorine demand may include receiving an operation command associated with a chlorinator for a fluid system with a chlorinator operation management controller (“management controller”). The management controller may determine a remaining runtime for the chlorinator and access measured values for fluid conditions from a plurality of fluid condition sensors for fluid of the fluid system. The management controller may determine a current chlorine demand based on the measured fluid conditions and a predetermined threshold for a chlorine level for the fluid. An operation of the chlorinator between an active state and an inactive state may be caused by the controller based on the current chlorine demand, the remaining runtime, and a configuration of components for the fluid system. Causing the operation of the chlorinator may include managing operations of a legacy control for the chlorinator.

Abstract: In various examples there is a computer-implemented method performed by a digital twin at a computing device in a communications network. The method comprises: receiving at least one stream of event data observed from the environment. Computing at least one schema from the stream of event data, the schema being a concise representation of the stream of event data. Participating in a distributed inference process by sending information about the schema or the received event stream to at least one other digital twin in the communications network and receiving information about schemas or received event streams from the other digital twin. Computing comparisons of the sent and received information. Aggregating the digital twin and the other digital twin, or defining a relationship between the digital twin and the other digital twin on the basis of the comparison.

Abstract: A sensor assembly may include a chassis, cover, first sensor, second sensor, and a control system. The chassis may include a first housing that defines a chamber with the cover and includes a partition within the chamber. A second housing of the chassis may define first and second ports in fluid communication with the chamber. A central wall may extend from an inner surface of the second housing and a protruding wall may extend over the central wall. Both the partition and the central wall may extend from locations along a longitudinal axis of the sensor assembly that are between the first port and the second port. In some examples the protruding wall and the partition direct a portion of fluid flowing within the second housing into and out of the chamber, and the first and second sensors detect values for respective fluid parameters for the portion of fluid.
