Abstract: A sensor system and analytics package that delivers a professional athlete's routine, drill, and/or move to an end user. The sensor system includes a network of physical devices embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and network connectivity to enable the sensors to connect and exchange data. In some embodiments, the sensor system can also be used to providing an engaging sports simulation where the user can choose to make different decisions during major sporting events and see their outcomes playout.

Abstract: An optical harness assembly and method are provided. The optical harness assembly includes at least one optical harness cable having a termination end; at least one electrical connector having connector pins; and at least one active connector conversion unit coupled between the termination end of the optical harness cable and the electrical connector. A method for retrofitting an optical harness assembly into an existing platform is disclosed. The method includes removing a legacy wiring harness; installing an optical harness assembly having electrical connectors and an active connector conversion unit; and testing the compatibility of connector pins of the electrical connector to the active connector conversion unit. In another embodiment the method includes: identifying electrical signals present on each pin of each electrical connector presentation; programmatically adjusting an interface based on the identified electrical signals present; and mapping the electrical connector signals to digital signals.

Abstract: A method an apparatus for symmetric line coding is provided where a binary input signal d is received; a value for each of a pair of binary bits p and q are dynamically defined in response to the input stream; and a pair of output bitstreams v1 and v2 are dynamically generated in accordance with the following: if d=1, then v1=p and v2=p, and if d=0, then v1=(1?q) and v2=q. In illustrative embodiments of the invention, the generation may be performed by symmetric-line coding machines, including: a bitstream symmetric line coding machine, a regular bitstream symmetric line coding machine, a complementary regular bitstream symmetric line coding machine, a binary complementary regular symmetric line coding machine, a bitstream parallel symmetric line coding machine, a regular bitstream parallel symmetric line coding machine, a complementary regular bitstream parallel symmetric line coding machine, and a binary complementary regular parallel symmetric line coding machine.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided for controlling the bias point of a Mach-Zehnder modulator. The method begins by applying a dither signal to a DC bias that is applied to a Mach-Zehnder modulator. A component of an optical output signal provided by the Mach-Zehnder modulator that is synchronous with the dither signal is detected. The dither signal is adjusted to maintain the detected component of the optical output signal at a substantially constant value.
