Abstract: In some embodiments, a fuel temperature sensor is located proximate to a vehicle component that is expected to experience fuel gelling, such as near or within a fuel filter, in order to obtain temperature information that accurately reflects the likelihood of fuel gelling occurring within the component. The proximate fuel temperature sensor can provide more accurate temperature information for components such as fuel filters that are installed at the periphery of the vehicle, compared to other temperature sensors that measure oil temperatures or other temperatures of centrally located vehicle components. In some embodiments, the vehicle is automatically started when the temperature indicated by the fuel temperature sensor falls below a startup temperature threshold value, and is automatically stopped after a predetermined time period or after the temperature reaches a shutdown temperature threshold value.

Abstract: A sensor-display device comprises an array of transmit-receive modules, each of which comprises a light transmitter, a light receiver, and a memory bank. A modulation driver connected to the light transmitter drives the light transmitter to transmit light. The light receiver creates electric charges from light received by the light receiver. A memory interface connects the light receiver to the memory bank for shifting the electric charges as data from the light receiver into the memory bank, and the memory interface shifts the data as electric charges from the memory bank to the modulation driver to drive the light emitter to transmit light based on the electric charges.

Abstract: A data processing array comprises a plurality of modules, each with a memory, positioned in an array of rows and columns interconnected by a pooling chain that carries data to and receives data from selected ones or groups of the modules. Each modules can also have light modulator elements for transmitting data as light signals and a light sensor for receiving data in the form of modulated light. Pooling switches in the pooling chain between modules open and close the pooling chain lines for selecting and grouping modules. Analog data lines separate from the pooling chain can also carry data to and from the modules. Pooling control lines connected to the switches turn the switches on and off for the selecting and grouping of modules. Module control lines, also separate from the pooling chain, connected to the modules enable various data input, output, and processing by the memory or other components in the module.

Abstract: A process for manufacturing a packaging material with at least two films (12,16) or foils bonded together via at least one adhesive layer (13) to form a multi-layer laminate (10) is such that at least one adhesive layer is an electron-beam-curable adhesive and the laminate (10) is radiated with electrons in order to cure the adhesive. The laminate is particularly suitable for manufacturing pouch-type forms of packaging, in particular for snack foods. The production of laminate using electron-beam-curable adhesive results in a significant reduction in throughput time and in a reduction of solvent emissions by replacing solvent-based adhesives with electron-beam-curable adhesives.

Abstract: Endocavity and invasive catheter transducers for four-dimensional or other imaging are provided. A two-dimensional or other multi-dimensional array of elements is connected with a minimum number of conductors to an imaging system. One or more conductors are used to select an aperture, such as selecting one or more rows of elements for activation. Along a different axis, such as an orthogonal axis, elements are used to image a planar region. By electronically switching the selected aperture, different planes are rapidly imaged. A matrix configuration of electrodes, such as using column electrodes for phased array imaging and row electrodes for selecting an elevation aperture allows for rapid acquisition of ultrasound data.
