  • Patent number: 11915949
    Abstract: A hybrid panel method of (and apparatus for) manufacturing electronic devices, and electronic devices manufactured thereby. As non-limiting examples, various aspects of this disclosure provide an apparatus for manufacturing an electronic device, where the apparatus is operable to, at least, receive a panel to which a subpanel is coupled, cut around a subpanel through a layer of material, and remove such subpanel from the panel. The apparatus may also, for example, be operable to couple to an upper side of the subpanel, and remove the subpanel from the panel by, at least in part, operating to rotate the subpanel relative to the panel.

  • Patent number: 11092564
    Abstract: A system and method for Displacement Current Phase Tomography. The present system invention obtains a linear relationship between mutual displacement current from a sensor (output current of the measuring electrode terminals) and the area (or volume) of an object to be imaged in the imaging domain. The system uses capacitance sensors and utilizes the phase of the measured current, in addition to the amplitude, to reconstruct an image.

  • Patent number: 9791396
    Abstract: A capacitance system having a capacitance sensor provides a high resolution Spatial-Adaptive Reconstruction Technique (SART) for use with Adaptive Electrical Capacitance Volume Tomography (AECVT). The system is adapted to analyze information provided by an image reconstruction of a first spatial region of an imaging domain of the sensor; provide control signals to the sensor to increase the resolution at a second spatial region of the imaging domain of the sensor based on the prior image reconstruction of the first spatial region; obtain image reconstruction information for the second spatial region of the imaging domain; and combine the image reconstruction information for the first spatial region and the second spatial region to obtain a combined image of the imaging domain.

  • Patent number: 6957257
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system for automatically providing infrastructure maintenance for a customer in response to a customer form/report/ticket in a communications network that includes a core communications (voice and data communications) service and an Access Provider service. Typically, the system includes a Work-Flow Manager and a maintenance program scheduler. The Work-Flow Manager is arranged to trigger, for each customer form/report/ticket, each automatic software program/engine of a plurality of automatic software programs/engines in response to an associated milestone event for the customer form/report/ticket. The maintenance program scheduler is coupled to the Work-Flow Manager and is used for invoking at least one predetermined maintenance software program based upon predetermined criteria being met by the form/report/ticket.

  • Publication number: 20050135105
    Abstract: An LED package includes a datum reference feature that is external to the insulating body of the LED package and has a known, fixed relationship to the heat sink. The LED die is mounted to the heat sink such that the LED die has a fixed relationship to the heat sink. Accordingly, the reference datum feature provides a frame of reference to the position of the LED die within the LED package. The reference datum feature may be mounted to the heat sink or integrally formed from the heat sink. A pick-and-place head holds the LED package by engaging the datum reference feature, e.g., with an alignment pin. In addition, the LED package may include a lead that extends laterally into the insulating body, and extends towards the LED die to reduce the vertical distance between the lead and the LED die.
