  • Publication number: 20210212271
    Abstract: An indoor farming system includes a water-based nutrient bath resident in a tank and a pump for pumping the bath from the tank upwardly through a plurality of pipes to at least one divided high-density table comprising growing crops resting in at least one float. The plurality pipes includes at least one valve suitable to shut off the bath per each of the high density tables. At least one non-block drain is coupled to the at least one divided high-density table. The bath turbulently flows respectively across the at least one divided high-density table, down the at least one non-block drain, and back into the tank that includes the nutrient bath. A lighting system provides moving light from points above the growing crops.

  • Publication number: 20180293332
    Abstract: A method includes providing a design interface to design a device schematic for a programmable device and receiving a placement of graphical objects in the device schematic, wherein the graphical objects represent components that are both internal and external to the programmable device being configured. The method further includes assigning the graphical objects into one of an internal domain and an external domain and displaying, by the processing device, the graphical objects from both the internal domain and the external domain in a single view of the design interface.

  • Patent number: 9575748
    Abstract: A method includes receiving hardware description code that generically describes circuitry, and translating the hardware description code into one or more configuration files specific to a programmable system. The method further includes generating program code for a microcontroller of the programmable system based, at least in part, on the hardware description code, and configuring the programmable system to implement the circuitry according to the configuration files and the program code.

  • Patent number: 8752033
    Abstract: A system interface of a processing system receives an indication to initiate configuration of a programmable system. A processing device coupled to the system interface and associated with an integrated development environment, responsive to the indication, translates a hardware description code into one or more configuration files specific to the programmable system, the hardware description code to describe circuitry in the programmable system. The processing device further generates program code for a microcontroller of the programmable system based, at least in part, on the hardware description code, and configures the programmable system to implement the circuitry according to the configuration files and the program code. In addition, the processing device debugs the programmable system as configured by the configuration files and the program code.

  • Publication number: 20110127753
    Abstract: A leaf spring assembly and a tandem suspension system of a vehicle includes a number of leaf springs secured together so as to form a central seat adapted to be mounted to a chassis of the vehicle. The leaf spring assembly also includes a first end portion adapted to be mounted to a first axle of the vehicle and a second end portion adapted to be mounted to a second axle of the vehicle. Each leaf spring features a central arcuate section and a pair of end sections, where a thickness of the leaf spring is at a maximum in the central arcuate section and tapers down in thickness towards the pair of end sections so that a constant stress results in the material of the leaf spring when the leaf spring assembly is used in the suspension system.
