  • Patent number: 11580432
    Abstract: System monitors and methods of monitoring a system are disclosed. In one arrangement a system monitor predicts a future state of a system. A data receiving unit receives system data representing a set of one or more measurements performed on the system. A first statistical model is fitted to the system data. The first statistical model is compared to each of a plurality of dictionary entries in a database. Each dictionary entry comprises a second statistical model. The second statistical model is of the same general class as the first statistical model and obtained by fitting the second statistical model to data representing a set of one or more previous measurements performed on a system of the same type as the system being monitored and having a known subsequent state. A prediction of a future state of the system being monitored is output based on the comparison. The first statistical model and the second statistical model are each a stochastic process or approximation to a stochastic process.

  • Publication number: 20200395125
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for monitoring a human or animal subject are disclosed. In one arrangement, test data representing a time-series of physiological measurements performed on a subject in a measurement session is received. A mean trajectory with error bounds is fitted to the test data. A state of the subject is determined by comparing the fitted mean trajectory with error bounds to a stored model of normality. The stored model of normality comprises a library of latent mean trajectories with error bounds. Each latent mean trajectory with error bounds is derived by fitting a hierarchical probabilistic model to a respective one of a plurality of sets of historical data. Each set of historical data comprises a plurality of session data units. Each session data unit representing a time-series of physiological measurements obtained during a different measurement session.

  • Patent number: 10794579
    Abstract: A circular edge-lit lighting device includes a light emitting panel (LEP) and a first light emitting diode (LED) light source positioned proximal to a first location on a narrow outer perimeter edge of the LEP. The first LED light source is configured to emit a first light into the LEP through the narrow outer perimeter edge. The first light has a first intensity level. The circular edge-lit lighting device also includes a second LED light source positioned proximal to a second location on the narrow outer perimeter edge the LEP. The second LED light source is configured to emit a second light into the LEP through the narrow outer perimeter edge. The second light has a second intensity level. The first location and the second location are different locations.

  • Patent number: 10782010
    Abstract: An edge-lit lighting fixture includes a light emitting panel (LEP) and a light emitting diode (LED) light source that is positioned proximal to a perimeter edge of the LEP and configured to emit a light into the LEP through the perimeter edge. At least a portion of the light is emitted through the broad surface of the LEP as an illumination light to illuminate an area. The edge-lit lighting fixture further includes a sensor positioned at a broad surface of the LEP to detect ambient light in the area. The LED light source is powered on based on the light sensor. The edge-lit lighting fixture also includes a sensor shield positioned around a portion of the sensor to block the illumination light from directly reaching the sensor.

  • Patent number: 9587814
    Abstract: A light emitting diode (LED) module having a configurable LED substrate capable of receiving varying numbers and layouts of LEDs are described herein. The LED substrate includes LED coupling points for receiving the LEDs and electrical traces etched into the substrate for routing power to the LEDs. The LED module can include a multi-LED over-optic having multiple over-optics that are configured to match the number and configuration of the LEDs positioned on the substrate. The LED coupling points and over-optics can be arranged symmetrically to enable the LED module to be rotated to adjust the light output distribution and direction. The LED module can include a power connection mechanism, for example located at the center of the substrate, that also allows the LED module to be rotated. One or more of the LED modules may be mounted on a heat sink and incorporated into a light fixture.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides air-tight mechanical valves. In a general embodiment, the valves include a shaft and a segmented sleeve. The shaft includes a plurality of shaft ports distributed around a circumference of the shaft. The sleeve is configured to fit concentrically around the shaft and includes a body having at least two body pieces, at least one internal seal, and at least one set of a plurality of sleeve ports distributed around a circumference of the body. The plurality of sleeve ports cooperates with the plurality of shaft ports to facilitate fluid flow. The valves of the present disclosure advantageously reduce losses of pressure and compressed air during use.
