  • Multi-threaded scanning of distributed file systems
    Patent number: 11677824
    Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein address the need to more efficiently backup a network-based storage environment that may be remote from a primary storage environment. For example, embodiments herein can provide a more efficient backup of a storage managed by a third-party entity. To improve the backup process, embodiments herein may optimize the number of scanning threads that are used to identify files that are to be backed up by, for example, analyzing the characteristics of the network and/or the network storage system to determine a number of scanning threads that will enable faster scanning of the network storage system while at the same time not overburden or be slowed down by a network between the network-based storage environment and the primary storage environment.

  • Multi-interface GPS time synchronization
    Patent number: 11675318
    Abstract: A time synchronizer receives UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) time in serial+PPS (Pulse Per Second) format from a GPS (Global Positioning System) device and outputs timestamp data in multiple formats, including: CAN (Controller Area Network), Ethernet, gPTP (generic Precision Time Protocol), and serial+PPS. Multiple data sources receive timestamp data in the multiple formats and each provide data in a unified UTC time base to a sensor-fusion device. The unified UTC time base is based on the timestamp data in the multiple formats output by the time synchronizer. The time synchronizer may perform edge detection for a first transition of an internal clock signal following a transition of the PPS signal received from the GPS device. The internal clock signal may be asynchronous with the PPS signal received from the GPS device. The internal clock signal may have a frequency of 40 MHz.

  • Skin screw electrodes
    Patent number: 11672483
    Abstract: Electrodes providing excellent recording and physical stability. Electrodes are disclosed that may include a plurality of small teeth that possess a novel design shape and orientation. The shallow and relatively long teeth run parallel to the rim of the electrode that presses against the patient's skin. When the electrode is twisted onto skin, the tiny teeth penetrate the stratum corneum and move nearly horizontally under the stratum corneum, thus anchoring the electrode securely to the skin. The electrodes cause minimal discomfort to the patient since the small teeth do not extend to the pain fibers which are located in deeper layers of the skin. The electrodes may be fabricated in a variety of geometries including cylindrical, disk, and blunt bullet or top shapes. In some instances, the electrodes may be connected to detachable leads having magnetic properties.

  • In-vehicle backup control apparatus and in-vehicle backup apparatus
    Patent number: 11677262
    Abstract: An in-vehicle backup the control apparatus includes a switch unit (for example, including second switch units), a control unit, a low-voltage detection circuit, and a latching circuit. The switch unit is provided between a power storage unit and a load (for example, a second load). The control unit controls the switch unit. The low-voltage detection circuit detects a low-voltage state of an electric power path through which electric power from a power supply unit is supplied. When the low-voltage detection circuit detects the low-voltage state, the latching circuit is switched to a latched state in which the switch unit is kept in an on state. When the electric power path is in the low-voltage state, the control unit releases the latched state and controls the switch unit to be in an on state.
