Abstract: A cooktop includes a burner, a power delivery module including a burner, an actuator for selectively heating the burner, and an audible alert module. The cooktop further includes a control system configured to detect a presence of a cooking vessel with a detection signal from the power delivery module and determine if a location of the cooking vessel is centered on the burner within a first threshold distance. The control system is further configured to, if the location of the cooking vessel is not centered within the first threshold distance, prevent the actuator from selectively heating the burner and generate a first audible alert with the audible alert module.

Abstract: A solar tracking system includes a database to store data associated with a solar field comprising physical location parameters of each of a set of solar panels. The physical location parameters can include a relative row-to-row height and spacing of the solar panels. The system also includes a parameter aggregation tool to aggregate the physical location parameters to generate aggregate time-based output power data associated with the solar field based on geolocation data associated with the solar field. The system also includes a solar tracking tool to generate a solar tracking control scheme for the solar field based on the aggregate time-based output power data, the geolocation data associated with the solar field, and a row-to-row backtracking constraint. The set of solar panels of the solar field can implement solar tracking based on the solar tracking scheme.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for direct injection of a gaseous fuel, in particular hydrogen, which device comprises: a pressure-control unit which is designed to convert a supplied variable pressure level of the gaseous fuel into a fixed constant output pressure level; a distributor unit which is connected to at least one injector for direct injection of the gaseous fuel, which has been guided through the pressure-control unit, into a combustion chamber; and a fluid connection between the pressure-control unit and the distributor unit in order to guide the gaseous fuel at a constant output pressure downstream towards the distributor unit. The device is characterized in that a flow-control valve is disposed along the fluid connection and designed to adjust the constant output pressure level of the gaseous fuel to a desired target pressure not exceeding the output pressure level.

Abstract: A network security method utilizing a bespoke honeypot includes first duplicating a protected image of a network accessible application from a primary container in which the protected image executes into a secondary container as a duplicated image. The method further includes modifying data in the duplicated image to different values than corresponding values in the protected image while retaining a same format as the values of the protected image, thereby forming a bespoke honeypot or chimaera. Thereafter, the method includes detecting an attempted intrusion in the protected image of the primary container and, in response to the detection, identifying a network source of the attempted intrusion, routing subsequent requests from the identified network source to the duplicated image in the secondary container and logging interactions between the identified network source and the duplicated image.
