Abstract: An example system coupled to a rollator for monitoring usage of the rollator, includes a grip assembly and/or a hip sensing assembly. The grip assembly includes a first sensor configured to detect a force applied to the first sensor. The hip sensing assembly includes a second sensor configured to measure a distance between the second sensor and a hip of the user positioned with respect to the rollator. A microcontroller is electronically coupled in signal communication with the first sensor, the second sensor, and a feedback circuitry. When the force applied to the first sensor exceeds a first threshold, the microcontroller activates the feedback circuitry to generate a first response indicating that the first threshold has been exceeded. When the distance exceeds a second threshold, the microcontroller activates the feedback circuitry to generate a second response indicating that the second threshold has been exceeded.

Abstract: A representative embodiment of a lighting system includes a carrying bag having a first opening with a control panel cover; a mounting bracket arranged in the carrying bag; a power supply coupled to or arranged on the mounting bracket; a control panel arranged within the first opening and coupled to the mounting bracket; a first flexible light strip; a second flexible light strip; and a power cable coupleable within the carrying bag to the control panel, the first flexible light strip, and the second flexible light strip. The first and second flexible light strips are coupleable to the power cable to receive DC power from the control panel, and may be extended throughout a structure, such as a tent, using a plurality of hangers. In a representative embodiment, the first flexible light strip provides white light and the second flexible light strip provides blackout light.

Abstract: An improved adjustable anchor tab is provided which includes a tab positioning assembly secured to the body member of the tab. Tab positioning assembly includes a rotatable wheel in one embodiment and includes a rotatable cylinder in another embodiment. The rotatable wheel of the first embodiment rotatably engages the lower inner side of the archer's mandible when in the anchor point. In the second embodiment, the roller extends at an angle with respect to the support upon which it is mounted.

Abstract: A chirped pulse amplification system includes one or more polarization compensator configured to compensate for polarization altering elements with the chirped pulse amplification system. The polarization compensator is responsive to a sensor configured to provide feedback to the polarization compensator. In some embodiments, the chirped pulse amplification system further includes a controller configured to automatically adjust the polarization compensator responsive to the sensor. The sensor is optionally a power sensor.

Abstract: A system and method for tracking and managing applications and content between a wireless device and a service. For example, in one embodiment, an “uninstalled” field is used within records on a client device and identifying, whether each application on the client is installed or whether the application has been uninstalled. A corresponding set of records are provided on the data service for each individual client device, including the “uninstalled” field. When an application is uninstalled on any client device, the corresponding record for that client device is updated on the service so that the service and the wireless device remain in synch.

Abstract: A device is illustrated for detecting particles in a fluid that can detect smaller particles without the need for added power or space and can be implemented inexpensively. The device utilizes two mirrors and a photo-diode. The housing of the photo-electric diode is machined to form one of the mirrors. The mirrors have a special positioning so that the second mirror uses the first mirror to reflect light deflected by particles back to the photo-electric diode.

Abstract: A device that fits inside a transport pod communicating with the slots of the transport pod so that the device can be inserted and removed from the transport pod. The transport pods are for silicon wafers. The device has sensors that monitor the environment within the transport pod. Depending on the device's size, silicon wafers may be able to accompany the device so that the device can monitor the precise environment the silicon wafers are exposed to while inside the transport pod. The device may also be placed in a transport pod and run through the manufacturing process as one transport pod in a series. The results on the environmental monitoring can be used for alarms and monitoring or data logging to improve the yield of the silicon wafers.

Abstract: A lateral manifold (10) for a fluid sensor (100) enables the fluid sensor (100) to sample multiple locations (70) and distinguish which location is being sampled. The design minimizes space, has no unused plumbing, allows for multiple sample tubes (51-55) to provide continuous flow, and enables a method for collecting samples from multiple locations (70).

Abstract: An outsert includes an elongated tubular member having forward, central and rearward sections, for connecting an arrow shaft to an attachment for the arrow. The outsert rearward section has a cylindrical rearward bore with a diameter greater than the outer diameter of the arrow shaft for receiving the forward end of the arrow shaft therein. The outsert rearward section also includes a tapered bore extending forwardly from the rearward bore, the tapered bore having a decreasing diameter such that the forward end of the arrow shaft contacts the tapered bore between the forward and rearward ends of the tapered bore. The outer surface of the rearward section of the outsert is tapered and receives a ferrule for crimping the rearward section of the outward into contact with the arrow shaft to assure coaxial alignment of the outsert with the arrow shaft.
