Abstract: A system, method and computer program product for determining cycling power. A plurality of force sensor readings are acquired from force sensors positioned underfoot. At least one revolution is identified. Force values are determined for the at least one revolution using aggregate force data. The cycling cadence, foot velocity, and foot angle are determined for each revolution. User mass is also determined. The cycling power associated with the force sensor readings is determined by inputting the force values, the cycling cadence, the foot velocity, and the foot angle, and the user mass to a machine learning model trained to predict the cycling power. The cycling power can then be provided to the user as feedback or stored for purposes such as later review and analysis. The inputs to the machine learning model can be determined entirely based off of sensor data received from a wearable device worn by the user.

Abstract: A system, method and computer program product for synthesizing sensor data in a wearable device. Sensor readings are obtained from a plurality of sensors, the plurality of sensors arranged in a first predetermined pattern, where the first predetermined pattern maps each of the plurality of sensors to respective locations on the wearable device. Based on the plurality of sensor readings and a plurality of estimation weights, a plurality of synthesized sensor readings are estimated for a corresponding plurality of synthesized sensors. The plurality of synthesized sensors are arranged in a second predetermined pattern, wherein the second predetermined pattern maps each of the plurality of synthesized sensors to respective locations on the wearable device. The plurality of sensor readings and the plurality of synthesized sensor readings can be output to provide a comprehensive set of sensor readings. The estimation weights can be optimized in a preprocessing phase.

Abstract: A detachable vehicle seat includes: a seat cushion including a seat latch for selectively securing the seat cushion to a vehicle body, and a seat control device for selectively unlatching the seat latch; a seatback pivotally attached to the seat cushion via a recliner device, the recliner device including a recliner control device configured to selectively cause the recliner device to be in a first state for locking the seatback in an upright position and a second state for locking the seatback in a stowage position; a first connecting element connecting the recliner device to the seat control device so that the seat latch can be unlatched only when the recliner device is in the second state; and a second connecting element connecting the seat latch to the recliner control device so that the recliner device can take the first state only when the seat latch is fully latched.

Abstract: Techniques for generating action recommendations for a data tape system are disclosed. A data tape system generates action recommendations for a data tape based on library-based metadata messages as well as a measured data quality value of the data tape. The system initiates an operation resulting in the data tape interacting with a media drive. A data tape library controller generates one or more metadata messages based on a result of a requested operation. The metadata message may include information regarding the type of error and a default recommended course of action. The system generates the recommended action for the data tape using a trained machine learning model.

Abstract: Rigid polyurethane or polyisocyanurate foams, polyester polyols used to produce them, and methods for formulating the foams are disclosed. The foams comprise a reaction product of a polyisocyanate, a polyester polyol, water, a surfactant, a catalyst and optional ingredients. The polyester polyols comprise a phthalimide-containing polyacid, a phthalimide-containing polyol, or a combination thereof. Rigid foams produced from the polyester polyols exhibit higher thermal stability and/or greater intumescence when compared with foams made from other polyester polyols. The phthalimide-containing polyester polyols should allow formulators to improve the flammability performance of rigid foams with reduced levels of flame retardants and/or lower index and should facilitate the production of thinner insulation panels.

Abstract: A system to clean well casing in a downhole well operation. The system comprises an inner collar having flow ports and an out collar having jet ports in fluid communication with the flow ports. The inner collar couples with a section of a tool string and the outer collar rotates about the inner collar in response to fluid flow through the tool string. The inner collar can include a sleeve. The sleeve can be moved from a first position to a second position causing the jet ports to be in fluid communication with the flow ports. The inner collar remains relatively stationary with respect to the rotation of the outer collar. In addition, the jet ports are angled in a way that a portion of force generated by the fluid flow through the jet ports induce rotation of the outer collar in the opposite direction of the fluid flow.

Abstract: A ladder is disclosed which has a lockable pivot arrangement. The lockable pivot arrangement is located and connected between two elongate ladder sections. Inside each pair of end housings there are at least two receptacles. A pivot mechanism connects between the end housings and the end housings rotate in unison and also allow the pair of end housings to rotate relative to the housing. A lock mechanism within the housing has at least two lock members each with an actuator and each actuator having a free end. There is an elastomeric bias element acting to bias the two lock members and respective free ends and actuators away from each other, and the two actuators when biased apart are positioned so as to allow for one-handed actuation against the bias to unlock the rotation of the housing.

Abstract: A creeper for scooting around on top of decking for decking installation, maintenance, and/or repair activities may minimize injury to a human user's knees and/or back. Movement-means of the creeper, such as, but not limited to, casters may be attached at or near a bottom of a base of the creeper to facilitate such scooting around. A seat may be attached to a top of the base of the creeper, wherein the seat may be sat upon by the human user during use of the creeper. Also attached to the base of the creeper may be a drill-guide. The drill-guide may facilitate controlled and repeatable predrilling of pilot holes, at predetermined angles (e.g., perpendicular) into decking planks and/or into joists. The creeper may also facilitate attachment of decking members, with the pilot holes, to joists.
