Abstract: Methods of situationally controlling marine devices connected via a one boat network on a watercraft are presented. The marine devices are selected from fishfinders or other OBN devices, trolling motors, heading sensors, main propulsion engine, i-Pilot Link, shallow water anchors, AIS/MARPA, smart chargers or power monitors, downriggers, trim tabs, drift paddles, lighting, sonar and imaging transducers, chart plotters, foot pedals, handheld remote controls, and mobile marine apps. The method includes the steps of identifying at least one situational condition of at least one first marine device, identifying at least one second marine device, and triggering a situational control action for the at least one second marine device when the at least one situational condition for the at least one first marine device is met. The methods include situationally controlling a speed of a trolling motor and anchoring of the watercraft, as well as providing advanced power management thereon.

Abstract: A sonar target locking system to position a sonar assembly to maintain the sonar array of the sonar assembly pointing at a position of a user-set (desired) target even when the watercraft is rotating or moving in various motions. The sonar target locking system includes electro-mechanical assembly that can be steered electrically to maintain the sonar array pointing at the position of the desired target. The system may be activated using at least one of a foot pedal, handheld remote control, or a display of a fish finder head unit. The system may use GPS and IMU inputs to generate control signals to steer the electro-mechanical assembly to maintain the sonar array pointing at the position of the desired target.

Abstract: An infection detection device is configured to continuously monitor a temperature of a periwound of a user and includes a dock and a drive. The dock includes an adhesive layer having an adhesive coating on a wound side thereof, a first dock portion and a second dock portion. The drive is configured to be inserted into a cavity of the dock and includes a printed circuit board, a plurality of first temperature sensors and at least one second temperature sensor. The printed circuit board is positioned along a base of the drive, and has a first printed circuit board portion and a second printed circuit board portion. The plurality of first temperature sensors extend from the first printed circuit board portion and through the first dock portion. The at least one second temperature sensor extends from the second printed circuit board portion and through the second dock portion.
