  • Publication number: 20240104334
    Abstract: A method of ascertaining one or more connection states of fluid line quick connectors in a fluid line assembly is set forth. The method involves assembling the fluid line quick connectors in respective connection locations at the fluid line assembly, and involves furnishing unique identifiers, positional information, or both, of the fluid line quick connectors. The unique identifiers and/or positional information is employed in a determination of whether intended connections have indeed been properly made among the fluid line quick connectors and connection ends of the fluid line assembly. Data matrix scanning, radio-frequency (RF) signaling, or a combination of both technologies can provide the unique identifiers and/or positional information at varying times for the determination.

  • Patent number: 10990256
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for modifying default display configurations for objects in a user interface are described. A system may support automatically drawing objects in a user interface such that the objects do not overlap and are legible to a user. To draw the objects with no overlaps, the system may determine when objects overlap based on a sweep procedure that identifies locations of default positions for each object to be displayed in the user interface. If two objects are identified to overlap in both a first and a second dimension during the sweep procedure, the system may modify one of the objects to prevent the overlap. For example, the system may hide the object or may find a next best location to draw the object such that the objects no longer overlap. Performing the sweep procedure may reduce latency and processing resources needed to identify any overlapping objects.
