  • Patent number: 11947330
    Abstract: Systems and methods for tool orientation and/or position determining system are described herein. In one example, a plurality of tool sensors can be coupled to a tool. The tool sensors can provide data to a control module or system controller. The orientation and/or position of the tool can accordingly be determined from the data. If the orientation and/or position of the tool matches a desired orientation, the tool and/or control module can provide an indication that the tool is in the desired orientation.

  • Publication number: 20240074015
    Abstract: A scalable DC power distribution and control system suitable for commercial buildings includes one or more power and control hubs. Each DC power and control power hub provides power and control for any suitable distributed DC loads such as light-fixtures. AC power from the electric utility is applied to the power and control hub and is converted to DC power for distribution to DC loads within the space using low-voltage cables.

  • Publication number: 20240071569
    Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods are provided that may analyze deoxyribonucleic add (DNA) sequence data using a natural language processing (NLP) model to, for example, identify genetic elements such as known and/or novel cis-regulatory elements {e.g., known and/or putative novel drought-responsive cis-regulatory elements (DREs)). Apparatuses, systems, and methods are also provided that may identify transcriptional regulators {e.g., upstream transcriptional regulators of a novel putative DRE) based on natural language processing (NLP) model data and expression genome-wide association study (eGWAS) data. Apparatuses, systems, and methods are also provided that may verify putative novel cis-regulatory elements based on a comparison of natural language processing (NLP) model output data and other model output data.

  • Publication number: 20200299793
    Abstract: A method of modifying a grain structure of a metal article includes disposing at least a portion of a metal article in a molten salt bath in a pressure vessel. The molten salt bath has bath temperature that is below a melting point temperature of the metal article. The method also includes pressuring the molten salt bath in the pressure vessel to a forging pressure sufficient to cause pressure-driven grain changes in the metal article.

  • Patent number: 7543869
    Abstract: A one-handed support for a plate and a beverage container includes horizontally oriented parallel upper and lower supports having a vertical hand-grippable connecting member attached therebetween. The lower support is adapted to rest on a planar support surface. The upper and lower supports each having approximately circular front and rear sections with a narrow connecting portion therebetween with the connecting member being anchored in the narrow connecting portions. The upper support is sized to hold a disposable plate and includes a clip to hold the plate in place. The rear sections each have an aperture therein defining annular grips sized to receive a beverage container. The support includes a removable beverage container holder which is adapted to hold stemware in an inverted position. An alternative embodiment includes a rotatable stemware holder attached to the upper support and a rotatable auxiliary plate support.
