Abstract: In some embodiments, an interconnect electrical connects a light emitter to wiring on a substrate. The interconnect may be deposited by 3D printing and lays flat on the light emitter and substrate. In some embodiments, the interconnect has a generally rectangular or oval cross-sectional profile and extends above the light emitter to a height of about 50 ?m or less, or about 35 ?m or less. This small height allows close spacing between an overlying optical structure and the light emitter, thereby providing high efficiency in the injection of light from the light emitter into the optical structure, such as a light pipe.

Abstract: In some embodiments, optical systems with a reflector and a lens proximate a light output opening of the reflector provide light output with high spatial uniformity and high efficiency. The reflectors are shaped to provide substantially angularly uniform light output and the lens is configured to transform this angularly uniform light output into spatially uniform light output. The light output may be directed into a spatial light modulator, which modulates the light to project an image.

Abstract: A tester for a relay comprises an enclosure, a testing circuit that includes a controller, electronic switch components, a power source, indicator LEDs, a test start switch, a relay selector switch, and five electric leads each connected with one terminal of the relay. With the relay selector switch toggled to indicate the type of relay being tested, with power supplied to each lead, and with the test start switch actuated, the controller sets each lead to ground, in turn, and then count the number of other leads that are grounded as a result. The controller then illuminates the at least one indicator to indicate either the passing relay test or the failed relay test based on the counts measured. Once the leads connected to the relay coil are identified, cyclic testing of the relay can be performed.

Abstract: Outages and/or switching operations associated with an electrical energy distribution system (e.g., a power grid system) are managed. In an implementation, a system provides for receiving outage request information related to a request to interrupt a power supply provided to a device in an electrical energy distribution system, determining switching information related to a set of steps to de-energize a portion of the electrical energy distribution system associated with the device based on the outage request information, and performing a switching operation to de-energize the portion of the electrical energy distribution system based on the switching information.

Abstract: A method for filtering a set of records on a user interface involves displaying a set of records, each record of the set comprising a first field and a second field; removing, from the displayed set, one or more records according to a filter of the first field, thereby leaving a subset of the set of records displayed; displaying filters for the second field; and for at least one of the displayed filters, visually indicating that, due to a currently-applied filter, the at least one displayed filter does not apply to any of the records of the subset.
