Abstract: A system including one or more processors and one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computing instructions that, when executed on the one or more processors, perform certain acts. The acts can include obtaining an original load design for loading a trailer to deliver stacks of pallets to physical stores. The load design specifies a respective floor spot assignment for each of the stacks. The original load design satisfies center-of-gravity constraints. The acts also can include generating fluid groups of the stacks to form an initial fluid grouping. The acts additionally can include determining that the fluid groups do not collectively satisfy the center-of-gravity constraints. The acts further can include until the fluid groups collectively satisfy the center-of-gravity constraints, repeatedly determining one or more infeasible groups from the fluid groups, and adjusting at least one of the one or more infeasible groups to update the fluid groups.

Abstract: Apparatus for staged startup of air-cooled low charged packaged ammonia refrigeration system includes motorized valves on condenser coil inlets, a main compressor discharge motorized valve, a bypass pressure regulator valve in the main compressor piping, check valves on the condenser outlets and speed control of the condenser fans. The condenser inlet motorized valves provide precise control of gas feed to the condensers, so pressure can build without collapsing the oil pressure. The condenser coil outlet contains inline check valves to prevent liquid backflow when a coil is isolated. The compressor discharge line contains a single motorized valve for regulating discharge pressure at start-up. The motorized valve in the compressor discharge piping also includes a bypass with a mechanical pressure regulator to allow precise regulation at the minimum discharge pressure. Once discharge pressure rises above the minimum setpoint, the condenser inlet solenoid coils will open one at a time.

Abstract: A system and method for image analysis of oximetry burden as a measure of cardiovascular risk are disclosed. A particular embodiment includes: using a data processor to receive a digitized representation of an oximetry graph of a patient; detecting a level of arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) in the blood of the patient over a given time period based on the digitized representation of the oximetry graph of the patient; and determining a Hypoxemia Burden Index (HBI) for the patient based on a percentage of time over a unit of measure parameter that the levels of SpO2 in the blood of the patient are below a hypoxemia burden threshold.

Abstract: A portable magnifier camera with an associated display housing, base and handle. The camera can be selectively positioned into a variety of configurations, including: a first closed configuration wherein the display and base are in facing relation; a second opened configuration wherein the display is angled with respect to the base; and a third hand-held configuration wherein a handle is pivoted outwardly to permit a user to hold the camera relative to a distant object. The angle of the camera adjusts automatically in each configuration to ensure that the camera's light of slight is perpendicular to the object plane. These configurations enable a user to effectively view objects of differing size and at varying distances.

Abstract: A desktop electronic magnifier in a first embodiment includes a monitor and a control panel mounted to the monitor so that access to the control panel cannot be blocked by any position of the monitor. In a second embodiment, a monitor is positioned atop a flat platform that surmounts the camera so that access to the control panel cannot be blocked by any position of the monitor. In a third embodiment, the control panel is mounted to the camera and the monitor is supported by a support surface independent of the magnifier. Access to the control panel is blocked only if the user positions the monitor in blocking relation to the control panel.
