  • Patent number: 11962564
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for forwarding data messages at multiple edge nodes of a logical network that process data messages between a logical network and an external network. At a particular one of the edge nodes, the method receives a data message sent from a source machine in the logical network. The method performs network address translation to translate a source network address of the data message corresponding to the source machine into an anycast network address that is shared among the edge nodes. The method sends the data message with the anycast network address as a source network address to the external network. Each edge node receives data messages from source machines in the logical network and translates the source addresses of the data messages into the same anycast public network address prior to sending the data messages to the external network.

  • Patent number: 11861897
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a portable apparatus for detecting early crop diseases based on spatial frequency domain imaging. The apparatus includes an end cover, a spatial frequency domain imaging apparatus, a dark box body, a telescopic section, and an opening-and-closing apparatus connected in sequence. The detection method includes: putting a crop sample to be detected into the dark box body from a bottom; projecting structured light of sine grey scale patterns with different spatial frequencies to the crop sample; after the sine gray scale pattern is switched each time, acquiring, by a camera, a diffuse reflection image of a surface of the crop sample once; after capturing all diffuse reflection images, performing uniformity correction on the images, demodulating the images, and extracting an alternating current component; and inputting an alternating current component image to a trained disease detection model, and determining whether the crop sample has a disease.

  • Patent number: 11548025
    Abstract: A kind of real-time measurement system and method for height from spray boom to crop canopy was provided in present invention patent, which includes the following steps. Step 1: Calibration for ultrasonic ranging sensor; Step 2: Determination of included angle for two ultrasonic ranging sensors; Step 3: Collection of relative height between spray boom and crop canopy; Step 4: Anti-interference processing for height data; Step 5: Calculation of relative height from spray boom to crop canopy. Its characteristic lies in: two ultrasonic ranging sensors with a certain angle are installed at each end of the spray boom, the height of crop canopy was acquired under the control of control unit, and the relative height from spray boom to crop canopy was obtained by the anti-interference analysis and data conversion, the accurate monitoring for relative height from spray boom to crop canopy was realized while the spray boom is tilted.
