  • Publication number: 20240346347
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to a primary load management system configured to execute machine learning and artificial intelligence techniques to generate predictions of access-right requests that are or are likely to be invalid before the access-right requests are processed for assignment to users or user devices. The present disclosure relates to systems and methods that collect a data set representing characteristics of user devices as the user devices interact with various systems of the primary load management system and train a machine-learning model to predict invalid access-right requests using the collected data set. The collected data set may include a log line that represents each user device, and each log line may be labeled based on an invalidity evaluation. New access-right requests can be processed using the trained machine-learning model to determine whether or not to assign access rights in response to the access-right request.

  • Publication number: 20240109083
    Abstract: A sprinkler assembly with a nutating distribution plate can improve even distribution of water. The distribution plate can tilt and/or translate upon water impinging the distribution plate to disperse water in different directions. The sprinkler assembly can have a deflector assembly including the distribution plate, a spindle supported by a bearing, and a contact portion downstream of the distribution plate to contact a housing that limits a range of movement of the distribution plate. The sprinkler assembly can be disassembled and reassembled with minimal tools and effort for servicing.

  • Patent number: 11853498
    Abstract: Apparatuses and methods of shielding for capacitance-to-digital code conversion are described. One apparatus includes a capacitance-to-digital converter (CDC) for measuring a self-capacitance of a sensor electrode. The capacitance-to-digital code converter can in a first phase, apply a supply voltage to the sensor electrode. The sensor electrode and a shield electrode, the form a mutual capacitance with the sensor electrode. The CDC, in a second phase, couples the shield electrode to a ground potential and the sensor electrode to a first modulation capacitor. The first modulation capacitor is pre-charged to a reference voltage. The CDC, in a third phase, couples the sensor electrode and the shield electrode to the ground potential. The CDC, in a fourth phase, couples the shield electrode to the ground potential and the sensor electrode to a second modulation capacitor. The second modulation capacitor is pre-charged to the reference voltage.

  • Publication number: 20230285719
    Abstract: Devices and methods for vascular navigation, assessment, treatment and/or diagnosis are disclosed. The system generally comprises an elongate body sized for introduction and translation through a catheter lumen. One or more openings may be located at or in proximity to a distal end of the elongate body and a sensor is positioned at or in proximity to the distal end. The sensor is configured to measure at least one parameter of a mixture of a first fluid and a second fluid after the first fluid is emitted from the openings and into the second fluid when the distal end is advanced beyond a distal opening of the catheter lumen. A controller in communication with the sensor is configured to receive a signal indicative of the at least one parameter and is further configured to obtain a position of the sensor within a body of a subject based upon the signal.

  • Publication number: 20230122233
    Abstract: Apparatuses and methods of capacitance-to-digital code conversion are described. One capacitance-to-digital converter (CDC) includes front-end circuitry, including a comparator. The CDC further includes a first capacitive digital-to-analog converter (CDAC) coupled to a first input of the comparator and, in a first phase, to a sensor cell. The CDC further includes a second CDAC coupled to a second input of the comparator and, in a second phase, to the sensor cell. The front-end circuitry provides a digital output. The digital output is proportional to a sensor capacitance of the sensor cell.

  • Publication number: 20220360275
    Abstract: A device can include analog circuits formed with a substrate, including a comparator, analog switches, and a balance current circuit. A sensor current and balance current can be applied at an input of the comparator. The sensor current, balance current or both can be modulated with a switch control signal. Digital circuits can include switch control logic that generates the switch control signal in response to an output of the comparator and a modulation clock signal. Digital signal processing circuits can generate a multi-bit digital value from a bit stream output by the comparator circuit. The multi-bit digital value can be an analog-to-digital conversion of the sensor current. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.
