Abstract: A power tool including a sensor attachment, a housing, a motor, and a power tool controller. The power tool controller is operable or configured to control power provided to the motor. The sensor attachment is coupled to the power tool's housing and includes a first non-contact sensor and a sensor controller. The sensor controller receives signals from the first non-contact sensor related to distance to a work surface and determines a fastener depth based on the signals from the first non-contact sensor. If the fastener depth is greater than or equal to a desired fastener depth, the sensor controller generates and sends a control signal to the power tool controller. In response, the power tool controller turns off or cuts power to the motor.

Abstract: A powered fastener driver includes a driver unit, a handle unit, and a handle extension. The handle unit is selectively and removably attachable to the driver unit. The handle extension has a first end and a second end, the handle extension being selectively and removably attachable to the driver unit at the first end, and being selectively and removably attachable to the handle unit at the second end. The powered fastener driver is adjustable between a first configuration in which the handle unit is directly attached to the driver unit, and a second configuration in which the driver unit is attached to the handle extension at the first end, and the handle unit is attached to the handle extension at the second end.

Abstract: A zero-gravity hoist system including a chain fall, a motor coupled to the chain fall and configured to drive the chain fall in one or more directions, a power supply configured to provide power to the motor, and a controller having one or more electronic processors. The one or more electronic processors are configured to measure a first force of a load in response to receiving an input, store the measured first force in a memory of the controller, measure a second force of the load, determine a difference between the second measured force and the first measured force, and adjust a height of the load based on determining that the second force differs from the first force by a predetermined threshold.

Abstract: A wireless hoist system including a first hoist device having a first motor and a first wireless transceiver and a second hoist device having a second motor and a second wireless transceiver. The wireless hoist system includes a controller in wireless communication with the first wireless transceiver and the second wireless. The controller is configured to receive a user input and determine a first operation parameter and a second operation parameter based on the user input. The controller is also configured to provide, wirelessly, a first control signal indicative of the first operation parameter to the first hoist device and provide, wirelessly, a second control signal indicative of the second operation parameter to the second hoist device. The first hoist device operates based on the first control signal and the second hoist device operates based on the second control signal.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for obtaining, training, and using an end-to-end AST model based on a neural transducer, the end-to-end AST model comprising at least (i) an acoustic encoder which is configured to receive and encode audio data, (ii) a prediction network which is integrated in a parallel model architecture with the acoustic encoder in the end-to-end AST model, and (iii) a joint layer which is integrated in series with the acoustic encoder and prediction network. The end-to-end AST model is configured to generate a transcription in the second language of input audio data in the first language such that the acoustic encoder learns a plurality of temporal processing paths.

Abstract: An electronic gaming machine for providing a game to a player includes a camera configured to generate camera data. The electronic gaming machine further includes a display configured to provide auto stereoscopic 3D viewing of at least a portion of the game and a processor coupled with the display and the camera. The processor is configured to: determine a location of the player relative to the electronic gaming machine from camera data; adjust the display based on the determined location of the player to provide auto stereoscopic three dimensional viewing by the player; responsive to movement of the player indicated by the camera data, update the display to account for a change in location of the player; and determine that the movement of the player corresponds to a predetermined gesture and, in response, update a game state of the game based on the predetermined gesture.

Abstract: A vapor retarder system includes a vapor retarder sheet. At least one and typically a plurality of parallel spaced-apart tie-straps are located adjacent an inner surface of the sheet, and the tie-strap extend across a width of the sheet and are connected to the sheet at multiple connection locations that are spaced from each other along a length of the tie strap. The sheet includes drape regions where the sheet is disconnected from the tie straps between successive connection locations. The tie-straps and drape regions ensure that the vapor retarder sheet is installed over roof purlins with the proper drape between the purlins to obtain the required insulation R-values. A fall-protection net or sheet can also be constructed and/or installed in the same manner.

Abstract: A method of facing a roof structure includes securing a facing to respective lower flanges of first and second spaced-apart purlins of the roof structure, with the facing extending directly between the respective lower flanges of the first and second purlins. A carriage is suspended from purlins of the roof structure and supports a roll of facing. The facing is dispensed and adhesively secured to the purlins by moving the carriage relative to the purlins and/or by maintaining the carriage in a stationary position and pulling facing from the roll of facing supported on the carriage. The resulting faced roof structure provides an enhanced appearance and more uniform and higher R-value insulation.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for facilitating play of a wagering game by a player. The system may include a primary display configured to display an arrangement of a set of symbols indicating an outcome and a winning pay line in the wagering game to the player. The system may include a secondary display, separate from the primary display, the secondary display configured to display a representation of the winning pay line. The system may include a processor in communication with the primary display and the secondary display. The processor may be configured to determine the arrangement of the set of symbols indicating the outcome, determine the winning pay line in the arrangement of the set of symbols, causing the primary display to display the arrangement of the set of symbols and the winning pay line, and causing the secondary display to display the representation of the winning pay line.
