  • Publication number: 20240107338
    Abstract: In examples provided herein, upon receiving notification of a computational task requested by a package to provide an experience to a user, a remote node management engine identifies computing nodes for performing the computational task and determining available processing resources for each computing node, where a computing node resides at networked wearable devices associated with the user. The remote node management engine further selects one of the computing nodes as a primary controller to distribute portions of the computational task to one or more of the other computing nodes and receive results from performance of the portions of the computational task by the other computing nodes, and provides to the selected computing node information about available processing resources at each computing node.

  • Patent number: 7866337
    Abstract: A flow controller including a unitary controller body with a chemically inert fluid conduit having an insertable constriction or orifice disposed within the conduit having a reduced cross-sectional area to thereby restrict the flow of fluid within the conduit allowing for reliable flow measurement. An integrated circuit or controller may be coupled to the control valve and also coupled to the pressure sensors by a lead structure including signal conductors surrounded by a Faraday cage, and a chemically inert housing coupled to the unitary controller body enclosing the control valve and the pressure sensors.

  • Publication number: 20040033843
    Abstract: A golf learning aid is directed to improving an individual's golf swing by monitoring spine angle during a golf swing and alerting the individual when the spine angle varies outside of a predetermined maximum spine angle range during the swing. The system includes a device affixed to a top portion of a cap worn by the user, and an earpiece affixed to the device for playing an audible alert. The device employs a microcontroller, a tilt sensor and a system of buffering and filtering to provide real-time feedback on a user's spine angle during the swing. It is an additional feature of the system that the microcontroller generates an audible and repetitive tone as a metronome cadence when the microcontroller detects that the user is set up for a golf swing. The metronome cadence is provided to improve one's rhythm and timing in the golf swing and golf swing routine.

  • Patent number: 5924161
    Abstract: A wiper assembly 30 for a rear view mirror 14 of a vehicle 22 that is automatically activated by a moisture sensor 60 attached to the exterior surface of a housing 12. The housing 12 is attached to the vehicle 22 by a mounting bracket 18 that includes an arm 20 interconnecting the vehicle 22 and the housing 12. The bracket arm 20 has an interior passage 21 that receives electrical wiring 50 that electrically connects a power source in the vehicle 22 to an electric motor 40 that drives the wiper assembly 30. A rack 44 and pinion 42 structure, in conjunction with motor reversing limit switches 48 provides for reciprocating movement of a wiper blade 36 across the reflective surface 16 of the mirror 14. An override switch 70 is located in the vehicle 22 so that the driver may selectively override the automatic activation of the wiper.
