  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IMPROVED BATTERY ASSEMBLIES FOR EVTOL AIRCRAFT
    Publication number: 20240120590
    Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to an apparatus for organizing battery cells. The apparatus includes a block including: sleeves forming chambers, a first sheet configured to locate the sleeves, and a foam structure surrounding the sleeves. Each chamber is configured to accommodate a battery cell. The block is configured to: organize the battery cells into battery cell groups, separate each battery cell group from its adjacent battery cell groups using a thermally insulating material, and prevent gas from entering into each battery cell group from its adjacent battery cell groups. Each battery cell group includes a plurality of the battery cells, each of the battery cells in the battery cell group is adjacent to at least another of the battery cells in the battery cell group. Each battery cell group is adjacent to at least another battery cell group.

  • Location-based Services
    Publication number: 20180295476
    Abstract: A location-based system comprises a display (1) and a wireless beacon (2) in close proximity. A beacon ID transmitted by the beacon (2) changes in synchronism with a change in content of the display (1). A mobile device (4) in the vicinity responds to the change in the beacon ID by changing content or services provided to the user (5). This system may enhance the applications of a micro-location system by providing time-varying services.
