Abstract: A particle sensor for measuring size and concentration properties of particles in a gas includes a bipolar diffusion charger configured to charge particles within a received gas sample by the collision of the received particles with and transfer of charge from both positive and negative ions concurrently. At least one electrometer detects the charge of received particles thereby charged. The net, positive, negative or total charge on the bipolarly charged particles has a low sensitivity to variations in the absolute rate of charge generation in the bipolar diffusion charger. A sensor for a ratio of ion charge mobilities in a bipolar diffusion charger employs an ion trap between the bipolar diffusion charger and at least one electrometer.

Abstract: An ice hockey stick template tool is disclosed for creating a personal tailored curved hockey stick blade of a hockey stick. The ice hockey stick template tool includes several blade parts that are configured to be assembled into a particular customized blade shape. The blade parts include several interchangeable heels, several interchangeable mids, and several interchangeable toes. A customized blade shape is created by a player assembling and adjusting one heel, one mid, and one toe, resulting in a blade profile which references a particular heel, a particular mid, and a particular toe. The blade profile is recorded and stored in a database that also stores all combinations of the interchangeable blade parts. The blade profile can then be transmitted electronically to a manufacturer or 3D printed to create the customized hockey stick the player desires.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for encapsulating living cells and labels, as well as encapsulated labelled cells and kits for performing such encapsulation. The encapsulated cells may be useful in multiple parallel tissue culture experiments, where the labels in each microcapsule may be used to decipher a cells path through a series of culturing steps.

Abstract: A product distribution system mounting assembly includes at least one bracket that is rigidly coupled to a frame of an air cart and at least one crossbar that supports at least one component of a product distribution system of the air cart. The at least one crossbar is slidingly coupled to the at least one bracket, thereby enabling the product distribution system of the air cart to move along a vertical axis relative to the at least one bracket and relative to the frame of the air cart as the air cart moves in a direction of travel through a field.

Abstract: A single platform for controller functionality for each of security, monitoring and automation, as well as providing a capacity to function as a bidirectional Internet gateway, is provided. Embodiments of the present invention provide such functionality by virtue of a configurable architecture that enables a user to adapt the system for the user's specific needs. Embodiments of the present invention further provide such functionality by providing for installation of removable, modular communication adapters for communication with a variety of devices external to the security, monitoring and automation controller.

Abstract: An occupant classification system for a seat assembly. The seat assembly includes a seat cushion and a seat back. The system comprises a plurality of sensors, an algorithm, a posture classifier and a weight classification system. Each of the plurality of sensors measures a force applied to the seat cushion and/or seat back by an occupant of the seat assembly. The algorithm monitors a compensation factor and adjusts the forces measured by the plurality of sensors to compensate for the compensation factor. The posture classifier identifies a posture of the occupant based on distribution of the adjusted forces for each of the plurality of sensors. The weight classification system identifies a weight class of the occupant based on the posture and magnitude of the adjusted forces for each of the plurality of sensors.
