  • Patent number: 10942211
    Abstract: An electrical equipment diagnostic system can include an electrical equipment and a sensor device controlled by a user that takes a first measurement of a first parameter of the electrical equipment while the electrical equipment is operating. The system can also include a controller communicably coupled to the sensor device, where the controller includes a storage repository, where the storage repository includes at least one threshold value and at least one algorithm. The controller can receive the first measurement from the sensor device, and process the at least one first algorithm using the first measurement. The controller can also identify a problem with the electrical equipment based on results of the at least one first algorithm, and instruct the user to perform specific tasks to correct the problem with the electrical equipment.

  • Publication number: 20190313026
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for image processing are described. A device may include a plurality of buffer components, each of which may receive a pixel lines that may each be associated with a respective raw image. An arbitration component of the device may combine at least some of the pixel lines into one or more data packets. The arbitration component may pass, using an arbitration scheme such as a time division multiplexing scheme, the one or more data packets from the arbitration component to a shared image signal processor (ISP) of the device. The shared ISP may generate a respective processed image based at least in part on the one or more data packets. In some examples, the device may maintain a respective set of image statistics, registers, and the like for at least some of the raw images.

  • Patent number: 9095601
    Abstract: A functional biologically active particle conjugate useful for diagnosis and treating cancer as a bioportal comprises a nanoscale particle having associated therewith an intracellular targeting ligand comprising a PNA, or another nuclease resistant oligonucleotide analog such as MOE-mRNA (2?-methoxyethyl mRNA) or LNA (locked nucleic acid), having a sequence that binds selectively to an uniquely expressed or overexpressed mRNA specific to the cancer or disease state in a living mammal. In one aspect the uniquely overexpressed target specific to the cancer or disease state is the unr mRNA which can be targeted by the antisense sequence PNA50.
