Abstract: At least one embodiment relates to an air purifying machine comprising at least one housing and a plurality of cores wherein each core is disposed in the housing. There is also at least one fan disposed in the housing. In addition, there is at least one pump disposed in the housing, wherein the pump is configured to circulate a fluid inside of the housing. The cores comprise at least two cores disposed inside of the housing comprising a first core and a second core, wherein the second core is disposed inside of said first core and wherein the second core is not concentric with the first core. The non-concentric nature of the cores creates a compression location at a point where the two cores are disposed closest to each other. This compression location creates a higher-pressure location for air flow around the cores.

Abstract: A machine control system can store model weights determined via machine learning using a training dataset correlating preset hydraulic valve displacements to measured movement parameters of a machine component. The machine control system can receive an input command for the component and machine state data from machine sensors. A control mapping model can use the model weights to map a combination of the input command and the machine state data into a predicted displacement of the hydraulic valve that causes movement of the component in response to the input command.

Abstract: A method of determining the real time state of a machine includes receiving acceleration and angular rate of motion measurements from IMU's mounted on components of a machine. Fusing signals received from the IMU's with separate Kalman filter modules by combining an acceleration measurement and an angular rate of motion measurement from each IMU to estimate an output joint angle for the component on which the IMU is mounted. Estimated and measured values of the output joint angle for each component are combined, a kinematic equation is solved to determine a real time value for at least one of position, velocity, and acceleration of the component at successive timesteps, and the determined real time values are applied to control movement of each component.
