  • Publication number: 20240116630
    Abstract: Methods for predicting a yield of fruit growing in an agricultural plot are provided. At a first time, a first plurality of images of a canopy of the agricultural plot is obtained from an aerial view of the canopy of the agricultural plot. From the first plurality of images, a first number of detectable fruit is estimated. At a second time, a second plurality of images of the canopy of the agricultural plot is obtained from the aerial view of the canopy of the agricultural plot. From the second plurality of images, a second number of detectable fruit is estimated. Using at least the first number of detectable fruit and the second number of detectable fruit and agricultural plot information, predict the yield of fruit from the agricultural plot.

  • Publication number: 20230026101
    Abstract: A color coded packing box apparatus for convenient and efficient moving includes a set of sidewalls each having a sidewall top edge and a sidewall bottom edge. The sidewall top edge has a top slit extending into a front sidewall. The sidewall bottom edge has a bottom slit extending into a back sidewall. A top wall is foldably coupled to the sidewall top edge along the back sidewall. A top tab is coupled to the top wall to engage the top slit. A bottom wall is foldably coupled to the sidewall bottom edge along the front sidewall. A bottom tab is coupled to the bottom wall to engage the bottom slit. Each of the sidewalls, the top wall, and the bottom wall are a solid color for visual organization when a plurality of color coded packing box apparatuses are in use.

  • Publication number: 20180014596
    Abstract: A head and neck cooling cap that has an air bag sewn to the back of the cap which extends below the wearer's collar line. The air bag contains a battery operated fan that fills the bag with air. The air is distributed over the cap's adjustable band to the top of the head. Air is also vented through vent grommets or other openings in the bag at the wearer's neck. The fan is equipped with a variable speed motor which runs from a battery pack or USB power pack. The batteries are typically worn in a pocket or other location on the user including a V-clip or possible battery belt or battery holder. The batteries can also be mounted in the bottom of the air bag.

  • Patent number: 6796158
    Abstract: A press system having a frame, a slide, a first die element on the slide, and a knockout assembly. The slide is movable guidingly relative to the frame in a predetermined path between a first position and a second position. The first die element has a forming surface against which a workpiece can be borne to conform the workpiece to the forming surface as the slide is moved from the first position towards the second position. The knockout assembly has an ejecting element that is movable selectively relative to the first die element between extended and retracted positions. The ejecting element causes a workpiece conformed to the forming surface to be separated from the forming surface as an incident of the ejecting element moving from its retracted position into its extended position. The knockout assembly further includes a knockout bar and at least a first knockout pin.

  • Publication number: 20040014494
    Abstract: A wireless communication network comprises a plurality of wireless communication nodes, each wireless communication node comprising a first wireless access point and a second wireless access point coupled to the first wireless access point. The first wireless access point is configured in a first mode to wirelessly communicate with at least one wireless client and with a wireless access point of another wireless communication node. The second wireless access point is configured to wirelessly communicate with a wireless access point of a different other wireless communication node. Multiple wireless communication nodes according the present invention may be coupled together to form a wireless bridged network.
