Publication number: 20240016468Abstract: A chest piece for a wireless stethoscope system can be configured to receive, from the accelerometer, motion data; determine, based on the motion data, that the chest piece has experienced no moment for a time threshold; and command the chest piece to enter a sleep mode that consumes less power in response to determining that no moment has occurred for the time threshold.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 15, 2022Publication date: January 18, 2024Applicant: GlobalMedia Group, LLCInventors: PHNAM BAGLEY, JOSEPH BENJAMIN MOAK, YURI VIACHESLAV LITVINOV, DANIEL COREY WIGGINS, NADEZHDA KUTYREVA, THOMAS HERBERT GRIMM, ARNE LANG-REE, SHAILENDRA SHASHIKANT GOVARDHAN, MARK ADRIAN STUBBS

Patent number: 10602664Abstract: The locations of flowers on a plant, rather than the locations of agricultural products produced from such flowers, are used to facilitate the performance of harvesting and other agricultural operations in robotic agricultural applications. In some implementations, the identified location of a fruit-producing flower may be used by a robotic device to apply an indicator tag to a flowering plant proximate the flower for later identification when performing various types of directed and automated agricultural operations. In other implementations, the identified location of a fruit-producing flower may be used by a robotic device to anchor a stem of a flowering plant to a predetermined location such that the location of the flower, and of any fruit(s) later produced by such flower, are controlled and/or known when performing subsequent agricultural operations.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2018Date of Patent: March 31, 2020Assignee: X DEVELOPMENT LLCInventors: Mark Adrian Stubbs, Kevin James Fleming McCloskey

Patent number: 8825934Abstract: Multiple devices may be simultaneously programmed using JTAG circuitry or a JTAG operation. The output of a master device's programming may be used to verify the programming of one or more slave devices. The comparison of the master device's programming output to a slave device's programming output may be handled by a logic circuit. The logic circuit may signal the result of the comparison by, for example, a LED.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2013Date of Patent: September 2, 2014Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Michael Sleator, Mark Adrian Stubbs

Publication number: 20050170945Abstract: The invention relates to boron-containing compositions for use in clay body, e.g. brick, manufacture. According to the invention clay bodies, such as bricks or tiles, are manufactured by a method comprising mixing into the starting clay a source of B2O2 and a migration inhibitor capable of inhibiting the transport of borate towards the surface of the clay during its drying, forming the clay into the desired shape, drying of firing. Using the method according to the invention clay articles of improved properties may be obtained.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 3, 2002Publication date: August 4, 2005Inventors: Adrian Stubbs, Michael Evans

Patent number: 6484018Abstract: A method and apparatus for defining and generating a digital waveform such as used for the local oscillator for a down converter in a receiver is disclosed. The method and apparatus is particularly useful where the digital waveform is not an integer submultiple of a reference signal. A plurality of different digital waveforms meeting the timing criteria but having different combinations of segments needed to meet the timing criteria are generated. Each of the digital waveforms so generated are tested in, for instance, a receiver to enable the selection of the best combination of segments.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2001Date of Patent: November 19, 2002Assignee: Echleon CorporationInventors: Walter J. Downey, Mark Adrian Stubbs, Luna Chen, Philip H. Sutterlin

Patent number: 6414968Abstract: A dual channel transceiver which operates at two different frequencies and which may be used in a network using older transceivers operating at a single frequency is disclosed. A pilot tone is transmitted by the transceiver when it is using the second channel to cause the older transfers to remain synchronized and thereby prevent them from transmitting data which would otherwise interfere with the data on the second channel. The relative magnitude of the signals on both channels is compared to prevent the detection of cross-talk on the second channel as data.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 1998Date of Patent: July 2, 2002Assignee: Echelon CorporationInventors: Philip H. Sutterlin, Walter J. Downey, Mark Adrian Stubbs, Luna Chen
