Abstract: A colorimetric compliance control device includes a electronic communication device, a non-transitory computer readable medium, an electronic controller. The electronic communication device is programmed to electronically receive colorimetric information regarding a vehicle component. The non-transitory computer readable medium electronically stores a non-transitory computer learning model using the colorimetric information acquired by the detector as a first input. The non-transitory computer learning model generates a colorimetric value as an output value related to the colorimetric information. The electronic controller is programmed to compare the output value with a predetermined exemplary value. The electronic controller is programmed to determine when the output value deviates from the predetermined exemplary value.

Abstract: An end effector is disclosed that is configured for connection to a robotic unit used to manipulate a door of a vehicle (e.g., during vehicle painting). The end effector includes a base plate; a sensor that is supported by the base plate; and a piston that is configured for engagement with the door. The piston is operatively connected to an interrupter such that movement (displacement) of the piston causes corresponding movement (displacement) of the interrupter between a first position, in which the interrupter is positioned in alignment with a signal transmitted across the sensor to interfere with the signal and thereby interrupt circuit completion, and a second position, in which the interrupter is out of alignment with the signal transmitted across the sensor to permit circuit completion and thereby inform the robotic unit that the door is present and engaged with the end effector.

Abstract: A Software Defined Quorum (SDQ) system implements a quorum system using Software Defined Networking (SDN). The SDQ system includes a controller/orchestrator; a plurality of compute/storage devices each comprising a normal container and a quarantine container; and a network communicatively coupling the controller/orchestrator and the plurality of compute/storage devices together; wherein the controller/orchestrator is configured to classify content in the quorum system based on policy attributes, address content to the plurality of compute/storage devices using a service tag based on networking attributes for the network, and address the content to one of the normal container and the quarantine container in each of the plurality of compute/storage devices using a first customer tag for the normal container and a second customer tag for the quarantine container based on the networking attributes.

Abstract: This is an apparatus used to support a paretic or paraplegic user in a standing position. The apparatus includes a top tubular frame supported by a plurality of vertical tubular members attached to a base. The top frame is open at the front such that a user may position a wheelchair at the opening, in close proximity to the apparatus, and transfer from the wheelchair to the apparatus. The apparatus further includes flexible straps attachable to the two vertical tubular members nearest the opening of the frame. The flexible straps, after having been positioned in strategic locations along the user's lower limbs, function to maintain the user in a standing position. The apparatus further includes a positionable attachable table that augments a user's ability to perform other tasks while standing. The apparatus further includes a wedge upon which the user may stand to maintain dorsiflexed feet position.

Abstract: A method and device for reducing positron emitter isotope labeled CO2 to positron emitter isotope labeled CO generally includes introducing a volume of positron emitter isotope labeled CO2 into a first heated reaction vessel comprising a metal oxide, such as Iron (II) Oxide such that the CO2 is reduced to CO upon contact with the Iron (II) Oxide. The volume is then transferred to a second reaction vessel to remove any un-reacted CO2, preferably, via a soda-lime trap. The volume is then transferred to a target, e.g., a storage vessel or subject. The CO2 includes one of [11C] or [15O]. The first reaction vessel is, preferably, heated to a temperature of between 900 and 1000° C., and more preferably, to between 925 and 975° C., and even more preferably, to approximately 950° C. Preferably, the Iron (II) Oxide powdered and has a particle size of about ?10 mesh.

Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method for a system for accommodating a solid target in an accelerator. The system and method includes a target changer having at least one port for accommodating the solid target, an insert for receiving the solid target in the target changer, a piston for providing a vacuum and a cooling system for the solid target, a cylinder for displacing the piston in one of three positions; and a bracket for securing the insert, piston and cylinder to the target changer.

Abstract: A closure (10) for shielding, and selectively providing access to, the targeting assembly of a particle accelerator of a radioisotope production system. The closure (10) includes at least one, and in one embodiment, first and second doors (44, 46), for selectively covering an opening in the housing of the particle accelerator which provides access to the targeting assembly. A door mounting assembly is also provided for mounting the first and second doors (44, 46) on the housing of the particle accelerator. In one embodiment the door mounting assembly includes a frame (30) for being secured about the opening in the particle accelerator accessing the targeting assembly. Further, in one embodiment the frame (30) and first and second doors (44, 46) are fabricated of copper.
