  • Publication number: 20240128762
    Abstract: In various embodiments, a process for configuring or commissioning a solar power system includes receiving, at a controller, hardware identifiers of a plurality of power electronics modules to be configured. Each of the plurality of power electronics modules of at least a portion of the plurality of power electronics modules is associated with a corresponding photovoltaic panel. A hub is configured to wirelessly communicate with the plurality of power electronics modules. The controller is physically connected to the hub and communicates with the hub via wiring that also carries power from photovoltaic panels to an inverter. The process includes configuring, by the controller, the plurality of power electronics modules using the received hardware identifiers.

  • Patent number: 11901066
    Abstract: The present invention relates to systems and methods of express tracking for patient flow management in a distributed environment. Particularly, aspects are directed to a computer implemented method that includes initiating a check-in process that includes prompting a user to scan an identifier, processing the identifier using a cascade machine-learning architecture comprising of a multi-task convolutional neural network model and a recurrent neural network model to obtain the classification of the identifier and member identification information, determining whether the user is known user based on the member identification information, when the user is a known user, verifying user data saved in the computing system associated with the identifier, once the user data is verified, determining whether the user has a scheduled appointment; and when the user has a scheduled appointment, checking the user in for the scheduled appointment.

  • Publication number: 20240029338
    Abstract: Disclosed approaches provide for irradiance caches which may be used to share irradiance between ray interactions spatially and/or temporally. An irradiance cache may store incoming irradiance or outgoing irradiance and may be updated by casting one or more rays from one or more locations to sample irradiance for the location(s). The number of rays that are cast may be reduced by ranking the locations, irradiance caches, and/or corresponding groups of geometry based on one or more characteristics thereof. For example, a ranking score may be computed based on camera distance, camera visibility, and/or a number of frames since a prior update. When sampling a location, outgoing irradiance from an outgoing irradiance cache may be used to determine shading when a hit distance of a ray used to generate the sample exceeds a threshold value.

  • Patent number: 11881801
    Abstract: Controllers for controlling hybrid motor drive circuits configured to drive a motor are provided herein. A controller is configured to drive the motor using an inverter when a motor commanded frequency is not within a predetermined range of line input power frequencies, and couple line input power to an output of the inverter using a first switch device when the motor commanded frequency is within the predetermined range of line input power frequencies.
