A substantially planar surface may be disposed over the active layer of the component, wherein the substantially planar surface comprises ends of the conductive studs and the first encapsulant layer. The first encapsulant layer comprises a roughness less than 500 nanometers. First conductive elements may be disposed over the encapsulant and coupled with the conductive studs. A second layer of encapsulant may be disposed over the first conductive elements.

Abstract: A system for remotely operating a machine, such as a mine vehicle, includes at least one first emitter for emitting a first signal corresponding to a first zone adjacent to the machine. A transmitter is provided for receiving the first signal emitted by the emitter, the transmitter being adapted for issuing commands for controlling the machine and also indicating the presence of the transmitter in the first zone. A controller is also provided for controlling the machine based on the control signals from the transmitter based on the presence of the transmitter in the first zone. Related methods are also disclosed.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are described for compact radar systems. In some examples, a compact radar system can include a first set of transmit antennas, a second set of receive antennas, one or more processors, and at least one computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the radar system to coordinate digital beam steering of the first set of transmit antennas and the second set of receive antennas, and coordinate digital beam forming with one or more of the second set of receive antennas to detect one or more objects within a distance of the radar system.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes therapies comprising a PD-1 axis binding antagonist, wherein a sample from the patient has been pre-determined to have certain biomarkers.

Abstract: A slope sensitive pitch adjustor for a bicycle seat includes a rotatable seat support, a gravity sensor mounted thereto, a means for rotating the rotatable seat support, and an automated controller configured to drive the rotating means in response to an acceleration signal received from the gravity sensor. The automated controller stores data representing an initial condition of a pitch angle of the rotatable seat support with respect to horizontal and executes a control algorithm to maintain the initial condition when the bicycle is ridden over changing gradients.

Abstract: A gas chromatograph with a positioning system for the inlet liner and the column includes a column and the positioning system for the inlet liner and the column. The column is configured for gas chromatography. Wherein, the positioning system for the inlet liner and the column is configured to position the inlet liner and the column with respect to one another. The positioning system for the inlet liner and the column is configured to repeatably and optimally position the inlet liner and the column with respect to one another. The positioning system for the inlet liner and the column positions the inlet liner in a perpendicular orientation to the column.

Abstract: A joint made from a lightweight, thin metal connector plate with one or more through holes or cutouts, containing multiple sharp edges. The sharp edges, within the through hole or cutout, upset and engage the outer layers of a stick or sticks, or similarly essentially cylindrical and irregular members, when inserted into the connector plate and a force subsequently applied, by rotating or moving the stick or sticks off axis from the plate, to fasten the stick or sticks in place. The connector plate, being lightweight and compact is well suited to survival preparedness and outdoor activities.

Abstract: A lightweight, thin metal connector plate with one or more through holes or cutouts, containing multiple sharp edges. The sharp edges, within the through hole or cutout, upset and engage the outer layers of a stick or sticks, or similarly essentially cylindrical and irregular members, when inserted into the connector plate and a force subsequently applied, by rotating or moving the stick or sticks off axis from the plate, to fasten the stick or sticks in place. The sheet metal construction provides for a wide rage of additional connection options, by means of easily incorporated features in the connector plate, when used in conjunction with common flexible connectors and solid fasteners.
