Abstract: A medical device includes wake circuitry and telemetry circuitry. The wake circuitry is configured to receive a first set of data from a device associated with the medical device, where the first set of data is received at a frequency band. The wake circuitry is configured to output a set of pulses based on the first set of data. The wake circuitry is configured to detect a data pattern using the set of pulses. The wake circuitry is configured to output an activation signal in response to a determination that the data pattern satisfies a data pattern requirement. The telemetry circuitry is configured to output a second set of data in response to receiving the activation signal. The second set of data is transmitted at the frequency band. The telemetry circuitry is configured to establish a communication session with the device using the second set of data.

Abstract: Disclosed is a sensor for monitoring a composite structure. The sensor includes multiple sensing elements of different sizes, each configured for different respective monitoring tasks. Also disclosed are methods of fabricating the sensor, designing and manufacturing the sensor, and attaching the sensor to the composite structure.

Abstract: According to an example, a technique for image processing is provided, the technique comprising: obtaining a first image and a second image that at least partially illustrate the same real-world scene, wherein the first image comprises a visible light image and the second image comprises a thermal image; identifying one or more spatial portions of the second image that represent a predefined temperature range; identifying one or more spatial portions of the first image that illustrate the same portions of the real-world scene as illustrated in the identified one or more spatial portions of the second image; and deriving, based on the first image, a composite image wherein the identified one or more spatial portions of the first image are emphasized.

Abstract: An indirect/direct evaporative cooling system for cooling air for comfort purposes includes a single, variable speed blower positioned below an indirect evaporative cooling stage and a direct evaporative cooling stage. A first portion of the blower discharge is directed horizontally through the indirect evaporative cooling stage, where it is cooled without the addition of moisture thereto, and is then further cooled in the direct evaporative stage prior to being supplied to a building. A second portion of the blower discharge is directed vertically through the indirect evaporative cooling stage and serves to cool the first portion as the first portion travels through the indirect stage. The indirect and direct cooling stages share a common sump for collecting water drained therefrom. The indirect stage includes a drip edge to keep drain water out of the flow of the first portion. A stud-straddle supply duct is attached to the direct cooling stage to facilitate installation of the system in wood-framed walls.

Abstract: A heater assembly is supported by an electrical receptacle mounted in a wall. A cover supports an enclosed heater and a fan forces air into the cover to be discharged into a space. A mount directly supports the cover when mated with the receptacle. To maintain the assembly in position, a contact or leg is situated below the mount and receptacle.
