Publication number: 20230422430Abstract: A system including a plurality of cooling cells and a switching and control module is described. The cooling cells including cooling elements configured to be actuated to induce vibrational motion to drive a fluid toward a heat-generating structure. The switching and control module is coupled to the cooling elements and provides drive signals to the cooling elements based on at least one drive signal input. Each of the drive signals has a frequency corresponding to a cooling element. The frequency of the drive signal corresponds to a resonant state of the cooling element.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 5, 2023Publication date: December 28, 2023Inventors: Ganapathy Sankar, Marc Mignard, Shekhar Halakatti, Suchitra Ramesh, Suryaprakash Ganti, Seshagiri Rao Madhavapeddy, Prabhu Sathyamurthy

Publication number: 20220299995Abstract: Autonomous vehicle inventory inspection and management is provided for a GPS-denied indoor warehouse with the objective of achieving fast, yet accurate warehouse inventory assessment. The warehouse stores inventory organized in a distributed and substantially parallel fashion. Passive identification markers are located on the racks for aiding navigation of the autonomous vehicle. Travel paths for the autonomous vehicle are predefined. They are relatively straight paths in between the racks, substantially constant and lateral first distance relative to at least one of two racks along its row, a substantially constant first height relative to a warehouse floor and a substantially constant speed for the autonomous vehicle. These requirements are important to attain the objective of faster, yet accurate inventory inspection and management. During travel, acquisition systems capture information of the inventory, which is synchronized with a digital management system.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 4, 2020Publication date: September 22, 2022Inventors: Srinivasan K. Ganapathi, Sumil Majithia, Javier Cisneros, Michael A, Stearns, Kunal Manoj Agrawal, Shubham Chechani, Nikolay Skarbnik, Marc Mignard, Dheepak Nand Kishore Khatri
