  • Patent number: 10938962
    Abstract: Network architecture with a plurality of data streams, wherein at least one of the data streams includes data updated in real-time; a plurality of protocol interfaces each connected to at least one of the data streams; a processor coupled with the protocol interfaces; an output interface coupled to a display for showing a graphical user interface; and a memory coupled to the processor including instructions that when executed by the processor, cause the processor to, multiplex a plurality of signals from the plurality of data streams via the protocol interfaces into a single output, wherein the multiplexing is executed based on an identity of the one of the data stream from which the signal originated, and output the single output to the graphical user interface via the output interface.

  • Patent number: 6485616
    Abstract: A system and method for coating substrates. The coating process includes an improved capacity and uniformity through the addition of a second motion component in which the substrates move in a closed path. A major portion of the path is linear and the configuration of the coating machine is such that all substrates follow the same trajectory with respect to the machine during the coating process, resulting in a coating which is substantially the same for all substrates.

  • Patent number: 4068669
    Abstract: A current monitoring and control circuit for use with a medical stimulation device for monitoring the exciting current to stimulation electrodes connected to the device is provided having a disabling component to inactivate a signal generating circuit resident within the stimulator. Operation of this disabling component may be controlled by the functioning of sampling and detection components preferably connected to the output of the signal generator and triggered by an undesirable output signal surge. Included may be visual signaling and metering functions.
