  • Patent number: 11969389
    Abstract: An integrated lower back treatment system is provided. The system includes a central core. The system also includes attachment devices positionable on longitudinal ends of the core. The system further includes a strap, wherein an end of the strap connects with a longitudinal end of the core with the attachment device and an opposite end of the strap connects to an opposite longitudinal end of the core with another attachment device. Additionally, the system includes padding, wherein the padding assembly includes padding arranged to allow the padding to connect and form a shape over the core and wherein the padding has differing firmness characteristics such that when the padding is rotated about a longitudinal axis of the core, a user of the integrated lower back treatment system will experience different firmness values dependent upon a position of the rotated padding on a lower back of the user.

  • Publication number: 20240134545
    Abstract: Disclosed in some examples are systems, devices, machine-readable mediums, and methods for customizing an in-memory versioning mode for each memory location according to a predicted access behavior to optimize memory device performance. Usage data in a previous time period may be utilized along with policy rules to determine whether to configure a particular memory address as a zero copy or direct copy mode. For example, memory addresses that are read frequently may be configured as direct copy mode to reduce the read latency penalty. This improves the functioning of the memory system by reducing read latency for memory addresses that are frequently read but written to less frequently, and reduces write latency for memory locations that are frequently written to, but not read as frequently.

  • Publication number: 20240136547
    Abstract: A fuel cell electrical power generation system is described herein. The system uses a combustor to increase the pressure and temperature of exhaust gases from a fuel cell stack of the system. The combustor uses hydrogen from a hydrogen supply to provide fuel to the combustor. The increased temperature/pressure of the exhaust gases post combustion are used to rotate a turbine, which in turn rotates a compressor of a turbocharger. The compressor compresses incoming air to increase the power output and/or the efficiency of the system. An ebooster can be used in low load conditions, such as during a startup or during at time in which the electrical loading on the fuel cells is relatively low.

  • Publication number: 20240125764
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a composition comprising a solid support, a plurality of tethered oligonucleotides attached to the solid support, and a plurality of untethered oligonucleotides hybridized to the tethered oligonucleotides. An untethered oligonucleotide can comprise, attached via the 5? end, a cell, or an effector molecule. Hybridization of an untethered oligonucleotide to a tethered oligonucleotide generates an enzyme cleavage site, which allows for temporally controlled removal of an effector molecule. The present disclosure provides methods of temporally modulating the activity and/or phenotype of a cell. The present disclosure provides a solid support comprising patterned tethered oligonucleotides attached thereto; and methods of making the solid support.

  • Publication number: 20240128060
    Abstract: Systems and methods for material processing using wafer scale waves of precisely controlled electrons in a DC plasma is presented. A surface floating potential of a substrate placed atop a stage in a positive column of the DC plasma is adjusted and maintained to a reference potential. A periodic biasing signal referenced to the reference potential is capacitively coupled to the stage to control a surface potential at the substrate according to: an active phase for provision of kinetic energy to free electrons in the DC plasma for activation of targeted bonds at the surface of the substrate; a neutralization phase for repelling of the free electrons from the surface of the substrate; and an initialization phase for restoring an initial condition of the surface floating potential.

  • Patent number: 11961272
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for using a surfel map to generate long range localization. One of the methods includes obtaining, for a particular location of a vehicle having a camera and a detection sensor, surfel data including a plurality of surfels. Each surfel in the surfel data has a respective location and corresponds to a different respective detected surface in an environment. Image data captured by the camera is obtained. It is determined that a region of interest for detecting objects for a vehicle planning process is outside a detectable region for the detection sensor. In response, it is determined that the image data for the region of interest matches surfel color data for the surfels corresponding to the region of interest. In response, the vehicle planning process is performed with the region of interest designated as having no unexpected objects.
