Abstract: An ink mixture is manufactured by mixing carbon, graphite, and solvents in a mixing system which may include a Cowles disperser. The conductive portions (e.g. carbon, graphite) are evenly and universally dispersed, because an even dispersal means the conductivity of the resulting conductive strip (electrode) will be even, consistent, and reliable. The various embodiments of the ink mixture comprise a blend of different conductive pigments, including but not limited to carbon black and graphite. These embodiments must be grinded until below 6.5 Microns in particle size.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device (12) for treating a body tissue presenting a prolapse.

Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling the motion of an autonomous vehicle are provided. In one example embodiment, one or more computing devices on-board an autonomous vehicle receive one or more constraint files including constraint data descriptive of one or more geographic identifiers (e.g., a polygon) and an application type (e.g., partial inclusion, complete inclusion, partial exclusion, complete exclusion) associated with each of the one or more geographic identifiers. Map data descriptive of the identity and location of different travel ways within the surrounding environment of the autonomous vehicle is accessed. A travel route for navigating the autonomous vehicle is determined, wherein the travel route is determined at least in part from the map data evaluated relative to the constraint data. Motion of the autonomous vehicle can be controlled based at least in part on the determined travel route.

Abstract: A bulkhead for a vehicle body structure includes a panel. The panel has a contour defined by a contour length and characterized by an open section having three surfaces in a cross-sectional view. The bulkhead also includes a support member embedded in the panel. The support member includes an external form configured to interface with and match at least two of the three surfaces of the contour. The support member also includes a support member length configured to fit within the contour length and a boxed cross-section having a substantially uniform shape along the support member length. The bulkhead additionally includes an adhesive applied between the external form of the support member and the interfacing surfaces of the contour to thereby bond the support member to the panel and reinforce the bulkhead. A vehicle having a structure with such a bulkhead is also considered.

Abstract: A device may receive image data representing a document, the document including: text, and edges. Based on the edges, the device may identify, a segment of interest within the image data and crop the segment of interest to obtain a portion of the image data. In addition, the device may perform optical character recognition on the portion of the image data, the optical character recognition producing recognized text. The device may obtain, based on the recognized text, validation data that includes verification text, and determine whether the recognized text is verified based on the verification text. Based on a result of the determination, the device may perform an action.
