  • Patent number: 11593437
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system and method for electronic design. Embodiments may include receiving, using at least one processor, a plurality of distinct electronic designs at an electronic design database and storing the plurality of distinct electronic designs at the electronic design database. Embodiments may further include receiving a request to reuse one of the plurality of distinct electronic designs from a client electronic device associated with a user, wherein the request includes design connectivity information, block connectivity information, and page connectivity information. Embodiments may also include analyzing the design connectivity information, block connectivity information, and page connectivity information to identify one or more closest matches with the plurality of distinct electronic designs and providing the one or more closest matches to the client electronic device to allow for subsequent displaying at a graphical user interface.

  • Patent number: 11161628
    Abstract: A remote aircraft preflight verification method includes sending a request via a remote interface for data from a sensor onboard an aircraft, transmitting the data from the sensor to the remote interface, processing the data via the remote interface to enable a determination that one or more preflight requirements are met, and presenting the data via the remote interface for enabling verification that the one or more preflight requirements are met. The method steps are repeated for multiple sensors. A remote aircraft preflight verification system includes sensors located onboard an aircraft and a remote interface communicatively coupled to the sensors. The remote interface includes a display for presenting data and an interface enabling verification of preflight readiness. The system may optionally include a wireless access point for coordinating the transmitting and receiving of instructions and data between the sensors and the remote interface.
