  • Patent number: 11585185
    Abstract: An assembly and method of manufacturing an assembly for use as an isolation barrier to be run in and secured within a well. The assembly has a sleeve member positioned on the exterior of a tubular body, fixed at each end to create a chamber therebetween. Fluid can enter the chamber through a port in the tubular body to morph the sleeve member against a larger diameter surface in the well. The sleeve member is formed of at least two materials, welded together and machined before being arranged on the tubular body. One material is more expandable than the other so as to morph more easily. The sleeve is connected to the tubular body by screw threads and seals. Initial construction of the sleeve member allows welding, inspection and machining without affecting the tensile strength of the tubular body or complete assembly.

  • Publication number: 20220239384
    Abstract: A method for switching interval modulation includes modulating an RF input data signal while generating and inserting additional pulses in transitions of the data signal. The additional pulses are structured to shift transition noise into higher order harmonics. Higher order harmonics are easily filtered. The generating is conducted in the digital domain. The additional pulses can be used to simplify the transmit chain through optical modulators and improve the signal integrity over long distances, can be applied at the output of a transmitter to filter power amplifier distortion, and can be appplied to non-linear RF over fiber for a distributed MIMO system.

  • Patent number: 11085268
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing an assembly for use as an isolation barrier to be run in and secured within a well. The assembly has a first tubular section providing a mandrel portion over which a sleeve body is located. The sleeve body is initially welded to a second tubular section to provide a part assembly which can be welded, inspected and machined without affecting the mandrel portion. The second tubular section is then coupled to the first tubular section and the sleeve body welded to the first tubular section to provide a chamber between the sections and the sleeve body. In use, fluid can enter the chamber through a port in the mandrel portion and morph the sleeve against a larger diameter surface in the well. In an embodiment the second tubular section includes a support for the sleeve body during initial welding which is then machined away.

  • Patent number: 11011035
    Abstract: The various implementations described herein include methods, devices, and systems for detecting motion and persons. In one aspect, a method is performed at a smart home system that includes a video camera, a server system, and a client device. The video camera captures video and audio, and wirelessly communicates, via the server system, the captured data to the client device. The server system: (1) receives and stores the captured data from the video camera; (2) determines whether an event has occurred, including detected motion; (3) in accordance with a determination that the event has occurred, identifies video and audio corresponding to the event; and (4) classifies the event. The client device receives information indicative of the identified events, displays a user interface for reviewing the video and audio stored by the remote server system, and displays the at least one classification for the event.

  • Patent number: 10977918
    Abstract: An electronic device with a display, processor(s), and memory displays a video monitoring user interface. The interface includes a video window displaying video feed from a camera located remotely from the device. A subset of the video includes a first motion event associated with an event category and a second motion event not associated with the event category. The device detects a user request for video playback. In response to the request, the device identifies a segment of the video for playback. The segment includes a first portion associated with the first motion event and a second portion associated with the second motion event. The device causes generation of a time-lapse video clip of the segment of the video for playback, including configuring the first portion to play at a different speed from the second portion. The device displays and plays the video clip of the segment.

  • Publication number: 20200224507
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for well intervention in which an expandable element is provided on a tubular. Using reclaimed drill pipe (12), an a recess (26) is formed at open end of the box section (16) and an annular sleeve (34) is slid over the pipe end into the recess (26). The sleeve (34) is affixed at either end by welding or suitable adhesive to provide a pressure tight chamber. A port (30) drilled through the pipe to access the chamber from the pipe bore is used to expand the sleeve (34) when the drill pipe is run in at tight tolerance in a wellbore.
