  • Patent number: 11961928
    Abstract: A photovoltaic module having a superstrate layer, an encapsulant having an upper layer and a lower layer, the upper layer being juxtaposed with a lower surface of the superstrate layer, and a photovoltaic layer intermediate the upper layer and the lower layer of the encapsulant. A first portion of the upper layer of the encapsulant includes a first light scattering value as measured in accordance with an ASTM E430 standard, and a second portion of the upper layer of the encapsulant has a second light scattering value as measured in accordance with the ASTM E430 standard. The second light scattering value is greater than the first light scattering value.

  • Publication number: 20240084821
    Abstract: Disclosed is a self-priming fluid transfer system having an integral siphon line that draws trapped air bubbles out of a main fluid chamber over time and fluid cycles. The self-priming fluid transfer system may include a body structure, a siphon line, and a priming inlet. The body structure may include a main fluid chamber having a chamber inlet and a chamber outlet. The siphon line may be positioned along the main fluid chamber and may include a siphon inlet and a siphon outlet that are positioned at or near the chamber inlet and the chamber outlet, respectively. The priming inlet may be positioned at or near a top wall of the body structure and may receive air bubbles from the main fluid chamber and output the air bubbles at the siphon outlet. Other examples may be described and claimed.

  • Publication number: 20240087985
    Abstract: Disclosed is a dual-sided cooling jacket configured to receive and cool devices on both sides of the cooling jacket. The cooling jacket may include a main fluid chamber that receives and outputs fluid from an inlet and an outlet, respectively. A first plate and a second plate may be joined to form the cooling jacket with the main fluid chamber therebetween. The first plate may include first threaded members that allow one or more devices to be mounted to the first plate. The second plate may include second threaded members that allow devices to be mounted to the second plate. The cooling jacket may include a siphon line to prevent accumulation of air bubbles within the main fluid chamber. Other examples may be described and claimed.

  • Publication number: 20240070749
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes an artificial intelligence approach to digital content recommendation where the recommendation mechanics differ based on the amount of information available. In one aspect, a user is identified as an above-threshold user who has consumed at least a threshold number of digital artifacts or a below-threshold user who has consumed fewer digital artifacts and different recommendation engines are used for above-threshold users and below-threshold users. In another aspect, users are bifurcated into low-data users and high-data users. For high-data users, digital artifacts are directly selected, and for low-data users, digital artifacts are indirectly selected by first selecting a digital artifact property criteria and then selecting digital artifacts that satisfy the selected digital artifact property criteria.

  • Publication number: 20230233762
    Abstract: Exemplary embodiments may provide a user interface and logic for assisting a user in calculating a proper medicament bolus dosage. The user interface may be simple and easy to understand. The user interface may clearly specify needed inputs, such as a carbohydrates amount for a meal that is about to be ingested and the current glucose level reading for the user. Entered inputs may be displayed on the user interface. The user interface may depict key calculated values resulting from calculations that involve the inputs, including the total bolus dosage calculation. The user interface also may depict the values that contribute to the total bolus dosage calculation. Some of the input values, such as carbohydrates amount, may be prepopulated by the management device or medicament delivery device. The user interface may permit overriding of prepopulated input values.

  • Publication number: 20220108092
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a mobile agent in an RFID system with reduced power consumption and increased localization capabilities. In one aspect, a relay circuit attached to a mobility mechanism such as a drone or robot is in communication with an RFID reader and a backend host computer. The mobile agent moves around a warehouse, for instance, in which landmark RFID tags are arranged. The mobile agent can transmit with an adjustable power to identify a single landmark tag and associate it with object tags of one or more objects within the range of the mobile agent. The host computer can communicate with the mobile agent to instruct it to adjust its power when multiple landmark tags are detected.

  • Patent number: 10025654
    Abstract: A workflow engine on a computing device is used to resolve a trouble ticket. Preliminary data is retrieved and one or more symptoms are received from a user device having a malfunction. The probability of each possible cause of the malfunction is determined. Upon determining that a probability of a mostly likely cause of the malfunction is above a predetermined threshold, a solution is provided. Upon determining that the probability of the most likely cause of the malfunction is not above the predetermined threshold, then entering a loop of performing diagnostic steps until the likely cause of the malfunction is above a predetermined threshold. Each diagnostic step is performed automatically, if the workflow engine determines that it can. If the diagnostic step cannot be performed automatically, the CSR is guided on how to accommodate the diagnostic step.

  • Patent number: 10019302
    Abstract: A workflow engine may be used to resolve service issues in a more expedient and effective manner. The workflow engine may select a troubleshooting flow to detect problems associated with a user device that uses communication services provided by a wireless telecommunication network. The workflow engine may determine alert notifications that are relevant to the troubleshooting operations. The workflow engine may make such a determination based on information from multiple data sources of the wireless telecommunication network. The workflow engine may further assign priority ratings to the alert notifications. Subsequently, a presentation layout may be assigned to the troubleshooting operations of the troubleshooting flow and the alert notifications by the workflow engine based on the priority ratings. The troubleshooting operation and the alert notifications are then provided for presentation on a computing device according to the presentation layout by the workflow engine.
