Abstract: A projection system and method includes a light source configured to emit a light in response to an image data; a phase light modulator configured to receive the light from the light source and to apply a spatially-varying phase modulation on the light, thereby to steer the light and generate a projection light; and a controller configured to dynamically determine, based on at least one of a user input or a sensor signal, a target geometry of a projection surface on which the projection light is projected, determine, based on the target geometry, a phase configuration for a frame of the image data, and provide a phase control signal to the phase light modulator, the phase control signal configured to cause the phase light modulator to generate the projection light in accordance with the phase configuration for the frame.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a fuel cell assembly including a fuel cell stack including one or more fuel cells stacked in a stacking direction. The fuel cell assembly further includes a first and second clamping plate for clamping the fuel cell stack between the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate in the stacking direction. The fuel cell assembly further includes at least one clamping element for interconnecting the first and second clamping plate. The clamping element is made of a creep-resistant material.

Abstract: The invention relates to a vehicle displaceable along aerial conductors of an electricity transmission line. The vehicle includes a body having arms. Each arm has a first end pivotably mounted to the body and a second distal end. A motorized wheel is mounted to each arm to engage one of the conductors to displace the vehicle. Support rotors have at least two blades. Each blade has an arm portion extending from the support rotor and a contact portion extending from the arm portion to engage one of the conductors to temporarily support the vehicle. An arm displacement mechanism engages the arms, and is operable to displace the arms in a direction transverse to a direction of travel of the vehicle to move the arms together and apart.

Abstract: A method of collection of sphagnum moss comprising a motorized cutting and collection of at least a portion of the sphagnum moss. The cutting is performed in a direction substantially parallel to the ground and in a direction substantially vertical to the ground, while leaving the sphagnum moss anchored to the ground.

Abstract: This disclosure describes a cutting unit for cutting sphagnum moss. The unit comprises a first pair of substantially parallel blades, laid out substantially according to a first orientation, and spaced apart from about 2 cm to about 30 cm and a second pair of blades, substantially parallel, laid out substantially in a second orientation, and spaced apart from about 40 cm to about 400 cm. The blades of the first pair and second pair being positioned and configured to cut said sphagnum moss.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to novel macrocyclic compounds and libraries thereof containing heteroaryl moieties that are useful as research tools for drug discovery efforts. The present disclosure also relates to methods of preparing these compounds and libraries and methods of using these libraries, such as in high throughput screening. In particular, these libraries are useful for evaluation of bioactivity at existing and newly identified pharmacologically relevant targets, including G protein-coupled receptors, nuclear receptors, enzymes, ion channels, transporters, transcription factors, protein-protein interactions and nucleic acid-protein interactions. As such, these libraries can be applied to the search for new pharmaceutical agents for the treatment and prevention of a range of medical conditions.

Abstract: An apparatus for inspecting a component of an aerial power line. A frame has a support member extending along a support member axis. The support member is mountable about the power line in proximity to the component. The support member is rotatable about the line axis upon being mounted about the power line. A stabilizing member is mountable to a stabilizing structure separate from the power line. The stabilizing member is mountable to the support member to rotate the support member about the line axis. A source of electromagnetic imaging energy is mounted to the support member and has an emitter to face the component. A detector is mounted to the support member at a distance from the source to position the component between the source and the detector. The source and/or the detector is displaceable along the support member axis to vary the distance separating the detector and source.

Abstract: Examples herein relate to monitoring network performance. For example, a system includes a topology map engine and service quality indicator (SQI) engine. The topology map engine develops a topology map representing multiple nodes irrespective of a type of domain. The SQI engine determines service quality indicators corresponding to the multiple nodes and updates the topology map with the service quality indicators.
