Patent number: 11392402Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to enabling migration of services between a first and second environment, while maintaining a local availability of those servers within the first environment. Specifically, embodiments enable the services to remain locally available with the first environment without modification of operation of clients within the first environment. A migration gateway is provided in the first environment that, on migration of a service from the first to the second environment, can announce availability of the service at the gateway. The gateway can then act as a proxy for the service in the second environment. In one configuration, the gateway adopts an Internet Protocol (IP) address of a server that has been migrated, such that clients may be unaware that migration has occurred.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2019Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventor: Theodore Allen Carroll

Patent number: 11394082Abstract: Provided are electrochemical cells including separators permeable to some materials and impermeable to other materials in electrolytes. Also provide are methods of forming such separators. The selective permeability of a separator is achieved by its specific pore diameter and a narrow distribution of this diameter. Specifically, a species responsible for ion transport in an electrochemical cell are allowed to pass through the separator, while another species is blocked thereby preventing degradation of the cell. For example, a species containing lithium ions is allowed to pass in rechargeable cells, while one or more species containing transition metals are blocked. In some embodiments, a separator may include a membrane layer with at least 90% of pores of this having a diameter of between about 0.1 nanometers and 1.0 nanometer. The membrane layer may be a standalone layer or supported by a membrane support.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2017Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignee: Sepion Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Peter David Frischmann, Brett Anthony Helms, Jon-Michael Alessandro

Low-power, fast-response machine learning logic can be configured to allow for the generation of a plurality of inference data. This inference data can be utilized along with other sensor data, such as a motion sensor, for the generation of one or more image sensor configuration changes that may be implemented to optimize the subsequent capture of image data. This cycle of image data analysis, image sensor optimization, and subsequent capture can continue multiple times until a threshold of optimization or time is met. The captured image data optimized around the known subjects is then stored.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2021Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignee: Western Digital Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Quang Le, Rajeev Nagabhirava, Kuok San Ho, Daniel Bai, Xiaoyong Liu

Patent number: 11390381Abstract: This disclosure is directed to an unmanned aerial vehicle (“UAV”) that transitions in-flight between vertical flight configuration and horizontal flight configuration by changing an orientation of the UAV by approximately ninety degrees. The UAV may include propulsion units that are coupled to a wing. The wing may include wing segments rotatably coupled together by pivots that rotate to position the propulsion units around a center of mass of the UAV when the fuselage is oriented perpendicular with the horizon. In this vertical flight configuration, the UAV may perform vertical flight or hover. During the vertical flight, the UAV may cause the wing to extend outward via the pivots such that the wing segments become positioned substantially parallel to one another and the wing resembles a conventional fixed wing. With the wing extended, the UAV assumes a horizontal flight configuration that provides upward lift generated from the wing.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 2019Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Jack Erdozain, Jr., Berk Ozturk, Nicholas Hampel Roberts, Brian C.

Patent number: 11391385Abstract: A valve operating apparatus with controls may include a speed control engageable by a hand of an operator of the apparatus to control a speed characteristic for operating the valve. The speed control may have a zero position corresponding to a zero speed of rotation of a shaft for connecting to the valve, with the speed control being movable out of the zero position to a nonzero position corresponding to a nonzero speed of rotation. A degree of movement of the speed control from the zero position may correspond to a speed of rotation of the shaft such that further movement of the control away from the zero position increases the speed of rotation. Movement of the speed control from the zero position may be characterized by the speed control maintaining the position of the speed control when engagement of the control by the hand of the operator is discontinued.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 2020Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignee: Hurco Technologies, Inc.Inventor: Michael Hurley
