Abstract: A receptacle including an electronic processor configured to receive information from an external load and determine, from the information, an operation profile of the external load. The electronic processor analyzes a present operation of the external load and discontinues power to the external load when a present operation of the external load differs from the operational profile.

Abstract: An image processing system may include a processor and an associated memory configured to store training data that includes training geospatial images. Each training geospatial image may include pixels. The processor may be configured to operate a training model to identify a given feature from each of the training geospatial images, and to iteratively generate a probability distribution function based upon a number of pixels corresponding to the given feature and also based upon a bias factor being reduced with each iteration.

Abstract: An image processing system may include a processor and an associated memory configured to store training data that includes training geospatial images. The processor may be configured to operate a training model to identify a given feature from each of the training geospatial images, and to iteratively apply a bias factor to a loss function based upon a number of incorrectly identified pixels for the given feature. The bias factor may be reduced with each iteration.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a non-contact power transmitter device including a sealed housing provided at least partially within a surface, and a transmitter coil within the sealed housing configured to inductively transfer power to a power receiver device. The power transmitter device also includes a transmitter control unit coupled to the transmitter coil, a transceiver configured to communicate with the power receiver device, and an electronic processor coupled to the transmitter control unit and the transceiver. The electronic processor is configured to establish, using the transceiver, communication with the power receiver device, and negotiate power transfer requirements between the power transmitter device and the power receiver device. The electronic processor is also configured to control the transmitter coil unit to transfer power to the power receiver device.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of operating an electronic device having a display and means for receiving user input, the method comprises: displaying on the display a menu adjacent an edge of the display, the menu containing one or more icons, each icon representing a function and being selectable by the user; and in response to detection of a user input in relation to an icon, causing the device to display a description of the function of the icon, wherein the description is displayed to project from the menu.

Abstract: An electrical receptacle including an outlet for electrically connecting to an external load, a load terminal electrically connected to the outlet, a line terminal electrically connected to a line and configured to receive line power, an interrupting device, and a testing circuit. The interrupting device electrically connects the load terminal to the line terminal when in a first condition and electrically disconnects the load terminal and the line terminal when in a second condition. The testing circuit is configured to determine when the external load is electrically connected to the outlet, and place the interrupting device in the first condition when the external load is electrically connected to the outlet.

Abstract: A method includes displaying information associated with a first application on a touch-sensitive display of an electronic device. A gesture is detected on the touch-sensitive display, which gesture indicates a request to display information associated with a second application. At least part of the information associated with the second application is displayed without opening the second application.
