Abstract: In various examples, object detections of a machine learning model are leveraged to automatically generate new ground truth data for images captured at different perspectives. The machine learning model may generate a prediction of a detected object at the different perspective, and an object tracking algorithm may be used to track the object through other images in a sequence of images where the machine learning model may not have detected the object.

Abstract: The technology provides a spectroscopy system having a fringe tilted grating that varies a refractive index to diffract light. The diffracting mechanism may be formed by modulating a refractive index to produce fringe planes that are oriented relative to each other through a depth of the grating material The spectroscopy system includes a detector that converts optical signals into electrical signals to render spectral data. The spectroscopy system employs the fringe tilted grating to minimize fictitious Raman peaks that correspond to a fluorescence response signature.

Abstract: Described herein are devices and methods for pumping fluids. The devices may be implanted within a patient or located external to the body of the patient. When employed externally, the devices may be used to deliver various drugs or support hemodialysis, in addition to pumping blood and maintaining blood circulation. The implantable devices may be used in patients in need of circulatory assistance or a replacement heart. Both the implantable and external pump devices may linearly reciprocate a shuttle within a housing to simultaneously move blood into and out of the housing, and rotate the shuttle to selectively direct the movement of fluid into and out of a plurality of ports in the housing.

Abstract: The technology provides a spectroscopy system having two or more spectrometers with substantially uniform focal lengths. The spectrometers include a detector that converts optical signals into electrical signals to render spectral data. The spectroscopy system includes a computing device that is electrically coupled to one or more detectors to receive the spectral data and compare the spectral data against other spectral data.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system and methods for the reduction of emissions from multiple stationary industrial diesel engines utilized in Hydraulic Fracturing Operations. Mobile Multiple Engine Exhaust Emissions Processing System (MMEEEPS) is a mobile system which comingles exhaust from multiple stationary diesel engines and processes the exhausts through a mobile Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). In an embodiment, the DPF is mounted on a trailer for mobility. Exhaust stacks from stationary engines connect via flexible insulated piping to overhead trunk line(s), that can be custom assembled to fit the needs of each application. With the assistance of Variable Speed In-Line Blowers (VSIB) the exhausts are captured and lead to single or multiple manifolds, which lead to the MMEEEPS unit.
