Methods for operating the apparatus include controlling the bypass valve to control testing characteristics across the prosthetic device, and methods for monitoring the pressure inside of the apparatus.

Abstract: A system includes a sensor capturing sensor data and an imager capturing imager data in combination with a computing device configured to time calibrate the sensor and the imager, detect an occurrence of a first event in the sensor data and extract a first time at which the first event occurred, and identify a first image in the image data having a capture time correlating to the first time at which the first event occurred in combination with retrieving the first image for insertion into a composite image including further image data combined with at least a portion of the first image depicting the first event.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a cooling plate for thermal management of a system such as an electronic. A unitary, single-material cooling plate can be formed from three stacked flat aluminum sheets, including a top sheet, a bottom sheet, and a middle sheet. An open channel is formed in the middle sheet by laser cutting, and enclosed by the top and bottom sheets. The top and bottom sheets are secured to the middle sheet through continuous laser welds applied around the circumference of the open channel and laser welding applied around the outer perimeter of the cooling plate. Flow modifiers or sensor assemblies may be encapsulated within the middle sheet open channel. The open channel may, in some embodiments, constitute a single open coolant chamber, with islands of material positioned therein and welded to the top and bottom sheets. Methods for manufacture of such cooling plates are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method of growing an extra-particle aerial mycelium employs electrostatically charged mist to control mist deposition uniformity in a growth environment, and on a growth matrix (or growing extra-particle aerial mycelium on a growth matrix) comprising nutritive substrate and a fungus in a growth environment with a predetermined environment of humidity, temperature, carbon dioxide, and oxygen. Control of mist deposition by electrostatically charging mist allows for control of the morphology and uniformity of the extra-particle aerial mycelium produced, independent of airflow uniformity, growth environment size, and structural obstacles that may be present within a growth environment. Control of mist deposition by electrostatically charging mist also offers the potential for targeted mist application where it might be needed most for fungal organism growth.
