  • Publication number: 20250144258
    Abstract: A luminaire includes a housing configured to be positioned over an area, the housing including a frame having a first channel for receiving a light emitter. A light emitter is positioned in the first channel. The light emitter is configured to emit ultra-violet light. A reflector assembly is connected to the frame to direct ultra-violet light emitted from the light emitter. At least a portion of the area is located at 0 degrees relative to the light emitter and a majority of the emitted ultra-violet light is emitted from the housing between 90 degrees and 130 degrees relative to the light emitter in a first direction.

  • Patent number: 12064047
    Abstract: A portable clothes hanging assembly includes a plurality of brackets attached together to define a wall mount that is attachable to a wall of a room in a building and a hanger extending away from the wall mount. A hanging wheel is rotatably attached to the hanger such that the hanging wheel has a vertical rotational axis. A plurality of hanger supports is provided and each of the hanger supports is suspendable from the hanging wheel. Each of the hanger supports has a plurality of receivers thereby facilitating each of the receivers to receive a respective one of a plurality of clothes hangers. In this way the hanging wheel facilitates the clothes hangers to hang clothes in the absence of a closet.

  • Publication number: 20230160805
    Abstract: Systems and methods of assessing a probability that an individual will develop sepsis are provided. The systems and methods can include obtaining a set of parameters associated with the individual including white blood cell count (WBC) and monocyte distribution width (MDW) value, and determining whether the set of parameters provides an elevated risk status by comparing at least the WBC and the MDW value with respective predetermined criteria. In the event that the set of parameters is determined to provide the elevated risk status, the systems and methods can further include obtaining a secondary parameter associated with the individual; and providing the probability that the individual will develop sepsis.

  • Patent number: 10902893
    Abstract: A negative bitline write assist circuit includes a bias capacitor configured to facilitate driving the capacitance of a bitline. The negative bitline write assist circuit may be modularly replicated within a circuit to change the amount of negative voltage on the bitline during write operations. The bitline write assist circuit may be coupled directly to the bitline, removing the need to add a pull-down transistor to the write driver.

  • Patent number: 10705011
    Abstract: A method for dynamic focusing is presented that can be performed by a dynamic focusing controller that can receive images from the image capture device, and for each image, determine a border of the particle within the image, and calculate a pixel intensity ratio of the image based on the border of the particle. The dynamic focusing controller can also calculate a median pixel intensity ratio from the pixel intensity ratios for each image, determine a focal distance direction based on the median pixel intensity ratio, calculate a focal distance based on the median pixel intensity ratio when the focal distance direction is positive, and calculate the focal distance based on a median border width when the focal distance direction is negative. The autofocusing controller can then send an instruction to the focusing mechanism to adjust the image capture device by the focal distance in the focal distance direction.
