Publication number: 20240119383Abstract: An orchestration system of or otherwise available to a web platform centralizes the execution of workflow components of a workflow associated with a job posting hosted by the web platform using various software services internal and/or external to the web platform. The workflow components and attributes thereof are determined based on the job posting. Domain-specific language (DSL) instructions for the various workflow components are generated. First DSL instructions are invoked by the orchestration system to cause an execution of a first workflow component of the workflow by a first software service. The orchestration system obtains an output of the first workflow component, such as values of relevant attributes, and, based on the output and in some cases information derived other than from the first workflow component, invokes next DSL instructions to cause an execution of a next workflow component of the workflow by another software service.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 10, 2022Publication date: April 11, 2024Inventors: John Bowers, Xiqian Han, Quanzheng Long, Jacob Lucas, Russel Mommaerts, Jeremy Spencer, Hemant Tanwar, David Thrift, Adam Ullrich, Christopher Valencia

Patent number: 10819824Abstract: Various embodiments include a lamp control unit coupled to or part of one or more light emitting diode (LED) based lamps. The lamp control unit can receive, from a lamp commissioning application of a mobile device via a wireless protocol, one or more commissionable lighting parameters to configure light output of the LED based lamps. The lamp control unit can lock access to change the commissionable lighting parameters with a password. One or more operational lighting parameters of the lamp control unit can be adjusted via a control interface (e.g., an adjustable voltage dimmer) other than the wireless protocol. The lamp control unit can drive the LED-based lamps based on the operational lighting parameters and the commissionable lighting parameters.Type: GrantFiled: May 11, 2016Date of Patent: October 27, 2020Assignee: Lumenetix, LLCInventors: Eric Lebel, Daniel Gochnauer, David Bowers, Thomas Poliquin

Patent number: 10602596Abstract: Various embodiments relate to systems and methods for controlling one or more LED-based lighting sources that are coupled to a logic module by a ribbon cable. The ribbon cable allows some or all of the processing components (e.g., processors and drivers) to be decoupled from the LED-based lighting source(s). The processing components can instead be housed within the logic module, which is able to simultaneously control the LED-based lighting source(s). Together with color models established for each LED board, the logic module acts as a platform for modularity and is able to more precisely control the color channels of each LED-based lighting source using the color models established for those LED-based lighting source(s). Techniques are also described herein that allow the logic module to utilize data stored within an erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM) that describes the color characteristics of an LED-based lighting source.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2018Date of Patent: March 24, 2020Assignee: Lumenetix, LLCInventors: David Bowers, Thomas Poliquin, Dustin Cochran, Matthew D. Weaver, Jay Hurley, James Kingman, Bryant Grigsby, Sanjoy Ghose

Patent number: 9353918Abstract: Light source systems and methods of operating the light source systems are disclosed. A light source system may include a combination of two lighting modules in communication with each other. The lighting modules can operate in concert, in parallel, or as master or slave. A printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) of the light source system includes electrical circuitry to drive a set of light emitting diodes (LEDs). The PCBA can include a communication interface for communication amongst the lighting modules. The PCBA can also include an optical sensor to provide color spectrum feedback to a controller module for self calibration. A master PCBA can receive sensor feedbacks, such as thermal and optical feedbacks from a slave PCBA. The sensor feedbacks can then be used to tune a color spectrum of a slave lighting module including calibrating the slave lighting module.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2013Date of Patent: May 31, 2016Assignee: LUMENETIX, INC.Inventors: Thomas Poliquin, Dustin Cochran, Herman Ferrier, David Bowers, James Kingman

Patent number: 9288865Abstract: Systems and methods for using an expert system to develop a color model for and LED-based lamp for reproducing a target light and calibrating the lamp are disclosed. The CCT of light generated by the lamp is tunable by adjusting the amount of light contributed by each of the LED strings in the lamp. The target light is decomposed into different wavelength bands, and light generated by the LED-based lamp is also decomposed into the same wavelength bands and compared. A color model for the lamp provides information on how hard to drive each LED string in the lamp to generate light over a range of CCTs, and the color model is used to search for the appropriate operating point of the lamp to reproduce the target light.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2013Date of Patent: March 15, 2016Assignee: LUMENETIX, INC.Inventor: David Bowers

Patent number: 9139454Abstract: A turbulence inducing device is described. Embodiments of the device include a nozzle (135), a vessel assembly (110), and an obstructer (140). The vessel assembly typically includes an open ended main channel (115) surrounded by a housing. In typical operation, fluid under positive pressure is forced through the nozzle into the main channel. Disposed at the main channel outlet, the obstructer is adapted to deflect the flowing fluid and induce turbulence that can result in cavitation when the fluid is a liquid. When the liquid includes water, cavitation can result in production of reactive species that oxidatively modify contaminants in the water. Embodiments of the turbulence inducing device can be used to reduce contamination of produced water, the produced water arising from hydrocarbon extraction or exploration.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2012Date of Patent: September 22, 2015Assignee: En-Spire Technologies, LLCInventor: David Bower
