Abstract: The embodiments of the present disclosure herein address unresolved problems of quality of signals in real time for wearables to provide optimal signals which can be used for brain signal based applications. Further, conventional techniques fail to provide real-time calibration of wearable devices, to understand the quality of the signals from the wearable device. Embodiments herein provide a method and system for a real-time calibration of one or more Electroencephalography (EEG) signals received from a wearable Ear-EEG device. The system is leveraging quality of signals in real time for wearables to provide optimal signals which can be used for early detection of neurodegenerative disease and brain-computer interface (BCI) applications. Further, the system is able to detect electrodes in the wearable device where the EEG signals have not been collected because the contact was not established.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for fault detection of a coolant diverter valve. The coolant diverter valve is arranged in a coolant system to control flow of coolant from a coolant reservoir to a diesel exhaust fluid tank. At least a first sensor is provided for measuring the pressure and/or temperature of the coolant. During operation of the coolant diverter valve, as required from time to time, the coolant diverter valve is commanded to open by energising the coolant diverter valve and commanded to close by de-energising the coolant diverter valve. Based on readings from the first sensor a controller can determine if the coolant diverter valve has failed to close when the coolant diverter valve is de-energised.
