Abstract: A method at an electronic device with a display includes: displaying a user interface having a first region and a second region; receiving, and displaying in the first region of the user interface, a live video stream of a physical environment captured by a remote video camera; displaying, in the second region, a timeline corresponding to a timespan for a first portion of a duration during which the live video stream may have been recorded; in response to receiving a user interaction to move the timespan to a second portion of the duration, transitioning the displayed timeline to a new timeline that corresponds to the timespan for the second portion, and while transitioning, displaying, in the first region, a subset of video frames representing the first and/or second portion of the duration.

Abstract: A method to drawdown pipe sections with the use or regulation control of flaring and cross-compression technique. The method allows to evacuate a fluid mixture from a drawdown section. The fluid mixture typically contains a liquid phase and a gas phase. The method includes flowing the fluid mixture from the drawdown section towards a separation vessel, and then out of the separation vessel to simultaneously flow the gas phase towards a flare for burning and flow the liquid phase towards one or more pumps towards an adjoining section. The proposed method allows recovering a higher proportion of the fluid mixture, as recycled product, and therefore limiting the combustion of the gas phase towards the atmosphere.

Abstract: The present invention provides a multi-stage system for treating greywater comprising an electrochemical treatment module configured to carry out electrooxidation and electrocoagulation processes and a filtration module comprising a multistage filtration system for the treatment and removal of chemical and biological contaminants in greywater.

Abstract: An apparatus (1) for underwater dredging includes a pipe (10) and a dredging head (2). The pipe (10) has a first aperture (11) and a second aperture (12) each disposed at opposing ends of the pipe (10). The pipe (10) also has at least one first sidewall aperture (13). The dredging head (2) is circumferentially arranged on a sidewall of the pipe (10) and has at least one input (20), at least one output (21) and a plenum chamber (22). The at least one output (21) is in fluid communication with the at least one first sidewall aperture (13). A first obstruction mechanism (23) is configured to selectively deter reverse fluid flow into the dredging head (2). The first obstruction mechanism (23) is configured to be selectively transformable between: a first, obstructing, configuration in which at least reverse fluid flow through the dredging head (2) is deterred; and a second, open, configuration in which fluid flow through the dredging head (2) is permitted. A method of underwater dredging is also described.

Abstract: A safety cover and support assembly has safety cover with a first flange and a second flange depending from a top plate, the first flange and second flange shaped to receive and engage geometrical elements of a drill motor. A vacuum extractor extends from the second flange with an inlet aperture positioned adjacent a drill foot of the drill motor. A support attachment extends from the top plate. A support is engaged in the support attachment.

Abstract: An extraction apparatus includes an arm and an extractor head mechanically connected to a first end of the arm. The extractor head includes a housing that defines a channel, a switch within the channel, a fork member within the channel, and an actuator device mounted to the housing. The switch is configured to detect reception of a fastener pin being received within the channel. The fork member is movable relative to the housing. The actuator device is mechanically connected to the fork member, and is operatively connected to the switch. Responsive to the switch detecting the reception of the fastener pin in the channel, the actuator device is configured to automatically move the fork member linearly within the channel from a start position towards a displaced position causing the fork member to remove the fastener pin from a work piece.

Abstract: A control system for a loader having a frame, a lift arm assembly, a coupler, and an operator interface is provided. The control system may include a lift arm position sensor coupled to the lift arm assembly and configured to measure a lift arm position, an inclinometer disposed on the coupler configured to measure a coupler angle, and a controller in electrical communication with each of the lift arm position sensor, the inclinometer and the operator interface. The controller may be configured to receive a baseline command from the operator interface for operating one or more of the lift arm assembly and the coupler, monitor the lift arm position and the coupler angle, and generate at least one command for operating one or more of the lift arm assembly and the coupler based on one or more of the baseline command, the lift arm position and the coupler angle.
