Publication number: 20240090394Abstract: Facility layouts and configurations for an automated crop production system for controlled environment agriculture. In particular implementations, the core of the facility comprises a controlled growth environment and a central processing system. The controlled growth environment includes systems for exposing crops housed in modules, such as grow towers, to controlled environmental conditions. The central processing system may include various stations and functionality both for preparing crop-bearing modules to be inserted in the controlled growth environment, for harvesting crops from the crop-bearing modules after they have been extracted from the controlled growth environment, and for cleaning or washing crop-bearing modules for re-use. The controlled growth environment may include vertical farming structure having vertical grow towers and associated conveyance mechanisms for moving the vertical grow towers along one or more grow lines.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 18, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Applicant: MJNN LLCInventors: Gage Goodspeed Coffin, Michael Peter Flynn, Nicholas Kalayjian, Alan Colbrie Schoen, Andrew Keith James, Arvind Sankaran, Alexandre Le Roux, Nadav Sahar Hendel, Anna Olson, Michael Bennett Hamilton, Theodore Howe St. George, Loren Raymond Pilorin

Publication number: 20240006010Abstract: In some situations, a leak on a wordline may be a localized problem that causes data loss in a block that contains the wordline. In other situations, such as when the leak occurs near a peripheral wordline routing area, the leak can affect the entire memory die. The storage system provided herein has a fatal wordline leak detector that determines the type of leak and, accordingly, whether just the block should be retired or whether related blocks should be retired.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 1, 2022Publication date: January 4, 2024Applicant: Western Digital Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Xuan Tian, Liang Li, Dandan Yi, Jojo Xing, Vincent Yin, Yongke Sun, Alan Bennett

Publication number: 20230306872Abstract: A real-time virtual reality welding system including a programmable processor-based subsystem, a spatial tracker operatively connected to the programmable processor-based subsystem, at least one mock welding tool capable of being spatially tracked by the spatial tracker, and at least one display device operatively connected to the programmable processor-based subsystem. The system is capable of simulating, in virtual reality space, a weld puddle having real-time molten metal fluidity and heat dissipation characteristics. The system is further capable of importing data into the virtual reality welding system and analyzing the data to characterize a student welder's progress and to provide training.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 5, 2023Publication date: September 28, 2023Inventors: David Anthony Zboray, Matthew Alan Bennett, Matthew Wayne Wallace, Jeremiah Hennessey, Yvette Christine Dudac, Zachary Steven Lenker, Andrew Paul Lundell, Paul Dana, Eric A.

Publication number: 20230282294Abstract: A storage system receives a request to read data that is located in a wordline undergoing a program operation. Instead of waiting for the program operation to complete, which would increase read latency, the storage system aborts the program operation and reconstructs the data from successfully-programmed memory cells in the wordline and from data latches associated with unsuccessfully-programmed memory cells in the wordline. The reconstructed data is then sent to the host. The program abort command can be similar to one used to provide a graceful shutdown in a power-loss situation.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 7, 2022Publication date: September 7, 2023Applicant: Western Digital Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Sergey Anatolievich Gorobets, Alan Bennett

Patent number: 10762802Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention pertain to a computer program product and processor based computing system that provides processing means for executing coded instructions and input means for interacting with said processing means to create a virtual welding environment. The system establishes an objective to change a functional or operational state of a virtual article, and directs the end user to perform at least one virtual welding operation for changing its functional state. The system trains new users and inexperienced welders on the fundamental aspects of welding.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2016Date of Patent: September 1, 2020Assignee: LINCOLN GLOBAL, INC.Inventors: Matthew Wayne Wallace, Andrew Paul Lundell, David Anthony Zboray, Matthew Alan Bennett

Patent number: 10114562Abstract: In a multi-plane non-volatile memory, good blocks of different planes are linked for parallel operation for storing long host writes. Where bad blocks in one or more planes result in unlinked blocks, the unlinked blocks are configured for individual operation to store short host writes and/or memory system management data. Unlinked blocks may be configured as Single Level Cell (SLC) blocks while linked blocks may be configured as SLC blocks or Multi Level Cell (MLC) blocks.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2014Date of Patent: October 30, 2018Assignee: SanDisk Technologies LLCInventors: Narendhiran Chinnaanangur Ravimohan, Muralitharan Jayaraman, Abhijeet Manohar, Alan Bennett
