  • Publication number: 20250173989
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a mapping application that displays a rotation of a 3D map and corresponding rotation of a set of map labels overlaying the 3D map in response to receiving input to rotate the 3D map. When a particular map label in the set of map labels rotates towards an upside down orientation, the mapping application also replaces the particular map label with a version of the particular map label arranged in a right side up orientation to prevent the particular map label from being displayed in the upside down orientation in the 3D map.

  • Publication number: 20250171585
    Abstract: Poly(meso-lactide) is branched by reaction with a mixture of a polyene compound and a free radical initiator. This branching method produces a product that has a very high polydispersity, a high branching number (Bn), and excellent melt strength, and especially low amounts of gelled material. The branched poly(meso-lactide) is useful in many melt-processing operations, in particular sheet and film extrusion, extrusion foaming, extrusion coating, and fiber processing. It is characterized by easy processing and allows for broadened processing windows.

  • Publication number: 20250169725
    Abstract: A nonuniform sampling device and technique and an offset immune luminescent lifetime estimation provides for sensing a gaseous presence and magnitude such as O2 levels or concentration. The partial pressure of O2 closely correlates with the lifetime of the luminescence quenched by O2. Lifetime measurements are preferred over intensity measurements because of their robustness to factors such as variations in the optical path. The disclosed approach, implemented in 180 nm CMOS, features a specialized AFE (Analog Front End) that obtains the luminescent lifetime information with 1) low noise and 2) leverages time-gated excitation, removing the need for optical filters to extract the luminescent response from the excitation light. The lifetime (?) is calculated using the time differences between equal voltage steps and 4) a measured mean error is as accurate as 0.3%.

  • Publication number: 20250172427
    Abstract: A system of detecting loading and unloading of mobile containers such as grain carts utilizes two low pass filters to determine whether the contents of the container are changing by subtracting one filter signal from the other, and using the sign of the difference. Weighing performance is improved by utilizing accelerometers to compensate for measurement dynamics and non-level orientation. Failure and degradation of weight sensors is detected by testing sensor half bridges. Loading and unloading weights can be tied to specific vehicles by utilizing RF beacons.
