  • Patent number: 10699729
    Abstract: Techniques for identifying a wake word by a device that is also playing audio content at the same time are described herein. For example, a device may execute playback of an audio file with a corresponding first variable wave form. The device may receive a second variable wave form that includes the first variable wave form and additional audio. In embodiments, a latency value may be identified based on comparing amplitudes and frequencies of portions of the first variable wave form and the second variable wave form. The second variable wave form may be modified by applying the latency value and inverting the second variable wave form with respect to the first variable wave form. The modified variable wave form may be merged with the first variable wave form to generate a merged variable wave form. A particular audio signal may be identified in the merged variable wave form.

  • Publication number: 20180266726
    Abstract: A fire tube heater assembly, sometimes referred to as boilers and/or water heaters, and method of accommodating elongation of the fire tubes associated with such heating devices. The fire tube heater assembly includes a plurality of fire tubes that are configured and oriented to effectuate efficient thermal exchange between the heating fluid, commonly a gas combustion product, and the fluid being heated. At least one end of the plurality of tubes are supported by a tube support. The tube support includes a bellows or other deformable structure that accommodates changes in the longitudinal length associated with thermal expansion and contraction of the fire tubes during operation of the first tube heater assembly and in a manner that maintains segregation between the heating and heated fluid flows.
