  • Publication number: 20250144694
    Abstract: A multi-tool is provided having a plurality of tool-receipt openings adapted to receive respective tools, wherein at least one of the tools is a slitting punch. In some cases, the slitting punch can be centrally positioned/oriented in the multi-tool. The multi-tool includes a guide plate configured to connect a driver assembly of the multi-tool and a selected one of the tools of the multi-tool via a drive mechanism. In some cases, the guide plate has a plurality of openings through which protruding portions of the drive mechanism correspondingly extend. One or more of the protruding portions extending through the guide plate openings are positioned in front of the desired tool-receipt opening. Adjustment of the drive mechanism can result from corresponding adjustment of the guide plate and/or corresponding adjustment of the driver assembly head.

  • Publication number: 20250150672
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein for determining whether to authorize output of a first application to be interrupted by output of a second application. The media guidance application may provide output of a first application to a user and receive, from a second application, a request to provide second output from the second application to the user. In response to receiving the request, the media guidance application may determine whether the user is involved in physical activity and, in response to determining that the user is involved in physical activity, retrieve from a database information in a profile corresponding to the user. If the information indicates that the physical activity is routine, the media guidance application may deny the request and continue to provide the first output of the first application to the user.

  • Publication number: 20250150680
    Abstract: Systems and methods for sorting favorite content sources are provided. A list of favorite content sources arranged in a first order is stored. The favorite content sources in the list are accessed according to the order of the favorite content sources in the list. At a given time, a user request to change a currently accessed content source to one of the favorite content sources in the list is received. In response to receiving the user request, an attribute of content presented on the currently accessed content source at the given time is identified. The favorite content sources in the list are rearranged into a second order based on the identified attribute. The favorite content sources in the list are accessed according to the second order in response to receiving the user request.

  • Publication number: 20250148342
    Abstract: A novel approach for computing efficiently quantum based signal autocorrelations includes example designs associated with quantum circuits for computing the quantum autocorrelation of the signal. Importantly, to compensate for unique challenges associated with quantum signal processing (particularly regarding probabilistic measurements that result from QFT and IQFT operations), normalization and denormalization steps ensure that quantum measurement results are comparable to ranges that would be obtained with classical autocorrelation computation methods. In addition, because probabilistic measurements resulting from QFT and IQFT operations lose important phase information, lost phase information can be restored following measurement using QFT and IQFT.

  • Publication number: 20250145475
    Abstract: In an embodiment, a method includes producing a mixed feedstock of at least three halogenated monomer feedstocks. A first of the at least three halogenated monomer feedstocks includes an SP3 carbon, a second of the at least three halogenated monomer feedstocks includes an SP2 carbon, and a third of the at least three halogenated monomer feedstocks includes at least two SP1 carbons. The method further includes producing a polyorbital-hybrid pre-ceramic polymer comprising the SP1 carbons, the SP2 carbon, and the SP3 carbon. The polyorbital-hybrid pre-ceramic polymer is produced by reducing the mixed feedstock such that one or more halogen atoms are removed from the mixed feedstock. The method also includes fabricating the polyorbital-hybrid pre-ceramic polymer into a greenware form and producing a polyorbital-hybrid ceramic carbon comprising the SP1 carbons, the SP2 carbon, and the SP3 carbon. The polyorbital-hybrid ceramic carbon is produced by thermolyzing the polyorbital pre-ceramic polymer.

  • Patent number: 12290686
    Abstract: An exemplary cochlear implant system includes a sound processor, a cochlear implant, and equalization circuitry integrated within the sound processor and/or the cochlear implant. The sound processor operates externally to a recipient and is associated with a sound processor coil. The cochlear implant includes a cochlear implant coil larger than the sound processor coil and that is configured to form a transcutaneous narrowband inductive link with the sound processor coil when the cochlear implant is implanted within the recipient. By way of the transcutaneous narrowband inductive link, the cochlear implant receives a forward telemetry signal incorporating power and forward telemetry data. The equalization circuitry facilitates recovery, by the cochlear implant, of the forward telemetry data from the forward telemetry signal by compensating for distortion introduced onto the forward telemetry signal as a result of bandwidth limitations imposed by the transcutaneous narrowband inductive link.

  • Patent number: 12292380
    Abstract: A detection unit, device, and system for cell capture, spectral analysis, and drug interaction monitoring. The detection unit includes an IR-transparent substrate connected to a plasmonic metasurface with an array of metallic antennas. In a detection device, the detection unit is connected to a microfluidic chamber with a channel such that the channel extends along the metasurface. For the detection system, the detection device is mounted on a microscope. The infrared spectra are collected in reflection, with infrared light impinging on the metasurface from the substrate side and returning back through the substrate in the form of reflected infrared light. The system includes a syringe pump for injecting live cells into the chamber. An AC source is connected to the metasurface for cell capture and its AC voltage creates a dielectrophoretic (DEP) force that causes the live cells to move from the chamber and onto the metasurface for spectral analysis.

  • Patent number: 12292212
    Abstract: A method of constructing an injection well for a geothermal energy system comprising determining a fracture area of an injection well with a curved wellbore by inputting the curved wellbore path, a set of formation properties, and a fracturing operation, into a fracturing model. The curved wellbore path can promote fracture interference between fracture stresses extending from the injection wellbore. A production model can determine an economic value of the production fluids produced from at least one production well by determining a contact time for the injection fluids to traverse the formation. A design process can iterate the curved wellbore path of the injection well to produce a production fluid with an economic value above a threshold value.

  • Publication number: 20250137333
    Abstract: A method can include positioning a filter cake sample including a wellbore material in a filter cake insert of a testing apparatus. The testing apparatus can include a slot, walls, and a blade. The method can include applying increasing amounts of force to the filter cake sample until a threshold force is achieved. The threshold force can cause the blade to displace the filter cake sample from the filter cake insert. The method can include determining, based on the threshold force, one or more clean-up characteristics about the lost circulation material or the spacer material for facilitating a decision regarding whether to use the wellbore material for a well system.
