Abstract: A system and methods providing for minimizing the arc energy delivered to the pads of a plurality of contactors using a single control coil based on monitoring the electrical sine waves of the three alternating current electrical poles and calculating the instant to energize or deenergize a single control coil. The remainder of the contactors will make or break based on an offset in time from the making or breaking of the control contactor.

Abstract: A system to recognize text or symbols contained in a captured image using machine learning models leverages context information about the image to improve accuracy. Contextual information is determined for the entire image, or spatial regions of the images, and is provided to a machine learning model when a determination is made as to whether a region does or does not contain text or symbols. Associating features related to the larger context with features extracted from regions potentially containing text or symbolic content provides an incremental improvement of results obtained using machine learning techniques.

Abstract: A method may comprise generating a first electronic model of a workpiece to be manufactured using an injection-molding process. The first electronic model may then be analyzed and the workpiece in the first electronic model may then be selectively distorted according to the analysis. A second electronic model of the distorted workpiece may then be generated. The workpiece may then be injection-molded within a mold generated using the second electronic model. Thereafter, the workpiece may be cooled such that the injection-molded workpiece gradually assumes the shape or substantially the shape of the workpiece in the first electronic model.

The connector may be reversible to be magnetically-connectable to a mating connector in a first orientation and in a second orientation that is 180 degrees from the first orientation. The connector may be operative to carry data and power to and/or from the mating connector when connected to the mating connector in the first orientation or in the second orientation.

Abstract: A system to select video frames for optical character recognition (OCR) based on feature metrics associated with blur and sharpness. A device captures a video frame including text characters. An edge detection filter is applied to the frame to determine gradient features in perpendicular directions. An “edge map” is created from the gradient features, and points along edges in the edge map are identified. Edge transition widths are determined at each of the edge points based in local intensity minimum and maximum on opposite sides of the respective edge point in the frame. Sharper edges have smaller edge transition widths than blurry images. Statistics are determined from the edge transition widths, and the statistics are processed by a trained classifier to determine if the frame is or is not sufficiently sharp for text processing.

The high pressure vaporizer is configured to receive from a high temperature heat source and produces high pressure working vapor used to power the high pressure turbine. The remaining condensed fluid is provided to a low pressure vaporizer which is configured to receive heat from a low-temperature heat source, thereby producing low pressure working fluid vapor used to power the low pressure turbine.
