  • Publication number: 20260128692
    Abstract: A power tool including an implement driven by a motor; an inertial measurement unit; and a control circuitry in communication with the motor and IMU, wherein the control circuitry: receives motor data associated with a condition of the motor; determines angular change of the power tool from motion data received from the IMU or receives angular change data from the IMU; initiates a countdown timer in response to the condition of the motor reaching a threshold; and generates a control instruction to maintain power to the motor upon the countdown timer reaching a prescribed value if the angular change is greater than an angular change threshold at any time during a duration of the countdown timer and reduce power to the motor upon the countdown timer reaching the prescribed value if the angular change is less than the angular change threshold during an entire duration of the countdown timer.

  • Patent number: 12608728
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to detecting misuse of contextual data, such as user data. In accordance with some embodiments of the present invention, artificial contextual data is created for artificial users and is, thereafter, provided to a bidder(s). Based on reception of artificial contextual data, bidders can place bids for presentation of advertisements. Bids placed by bidders receiving such artificial context data can be collected and analyzed. When bids appear to be atypically increased or decreased based on the artificial contextual data, a determination can be made that the bidder retains and/or misuses contextual data, such as user data.

  • Publication number: 20250264126
    Abstract: A hanger is provided for supporting a load on a threaded object with a longitudinal axis. The hanger can include a hanger body, a hole in the hanger body, and a partial thread portion. The hole can be configured to receive the threaded object therethrough. The partial thread portion can be configured to engage with a thread of the threaded object when the hanger is in an engaged configuration. The hanger can be configured to move from a non-engaged configuration to the engaged configuration without rotation of the hanger body or the threaded object about the longitudinal axis of the threaded object.

  • Publication number: 20250214648
    Abstract: A lawnmower including: a wheel; a motor operably coupled to drive the wheel; a user input configured to receive a steering control input from a user; and a controller configured to operate in a steering assist mode where the controller: receives information from the user input, the information including a position of the user input; compares the position of the user input to a gain profile saved in a memory of the controller; determines a scale factor from the gain profile based on the comparison; generates a command instruction to control a speed of the motor based on the position of the user input and the determined scale factor; and transmits the command instruction to the motor to affect a speed of the motor.

  • Patent number: 12013200
    Abstract: Firearms being used by non-authorized individuals have been the cause of the death of many innocent people. Guns and rifles are relatively easy to obtain illegally though black markets or by stealing from relatives and acquaintances of registered firearm owners and there is no adequate methods of restricting their operation after they are not controlled by the owner. The current disclosure describes an apparatus and system for remotely monitoring the location, movement and operational status of a firearm and report the status to the firearm owner. Alternatively, the system will track the firearms location and status and report to a central authority when the firearm is fired. This method of operation can be used to notify a central authority to provide backup for an officer under fire. Shots fired and shots heard are detected using acoustic time of flight and sound signature analysis. The detection apparatus being contained within the firearm.
