  • Publication number: 20170005909
    Abstract: Technology for a wireless underground communication system is disclosed. The wireless underground communication system can include a multi radio directional router (MRDR). The MRDR can include a dedicated in-by transceiver Wi-Fi node, and the dedicated in-by transceiver Wi-Fi node can be assigned a first unique IP address. The MRDR can include a dedicated out-by transceiver Wi-Fi node, and the dedicated out-by transceiver Wi-Fi node can be assigned a second unique IP address. The wireless underground communication system can include a routing module configured to route data between a plurality of MRDRs based on one or more of Optimized Link State Routing (OLSR) or Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), using the dedicated in-by transceiver Wi-Fi node and the dedicated out-by transceiver Wi-Fi node.

  • Patent number: 7920289
    Abstract: A system and method for printing on media includes a printhead assembly, a memory, and a controller. The printhead assembly is configured to make physical print sweeps relative to print regions of the media and to print within the print regions during the physical print sweeps. The memory communicates with the printhead assembly and is configured to receive data associated with a logical print sweep. The data associated with the logical print sweep controls printing within a first print region of the media during a corresponding first physical print sweep. The controller communicates with the printhead assembly and memory. The controller initiates the first physical print sweep of the printhead assembly before all of the data associated with the logical print sweep is received by the memory.

  • Publication number: 20070040907
    Abstract: A system for capturing and analyzing images of body features to identify treatments has a base unit with a processor and a display and an image management software component for presenting on the display a user interface to prompt a user to capture images in preselected locations on a body and to receive captured image data. The system has at least two light sources under control of the user interface that provide light following first and second light paths from the respective light sources to the plane of an imaging station, each light path having a significant portion of its light on the plane of the imaging station at a grazing angle of about ten to about thirty degrees. The first and second light paths when projected onto the plane of the imaging station intersect at an angle of at least sixty degrees. An image sensor receives light from the light sources that is reflected from the surface of a body feature located at the imaging station and produces pixel image data representing the body feature.

  • Patent number: 5662356
    Abstract: A roll correction system for use in a vehicle including a body, wheels, and a suspension coupling the body to the wheels includes a roll correction apparatus hydraulically actuated by a hydraulic signal indicative of a roll direction. A hydraulic signal source provides the hydraulic signal conditioned to indicate a roll position in response to a first steering direction. A countersteer correction element maintains the condition of the hydraulic signal to indicate the roll direction in response to countersteer in a second steering direction opposite the first steering direction as would occur, for example, in a skid.

  • Patent number: 5219181
    Abstract: An anti-roll system for turn compensation in a vehicle generates a differential hydraulic signal in which a pressurizing potential corresponds to a first curve direction and a complementary return hydraulic potential. The system includes a pair of rear wheel cylinder and piston assemblies and a pair of front wheel cylinder and piston assemblies. A hydraulic circuit is connected to conduct the pressurizing potential to move the pistons in a first rear wheel cylinder and piston assembly and a first front wheel cylinder and piston assembly, while conducting the return signal to move the pistons in second front wheel cylinder and piston assembly and a second rear wheel cylinder and piston assembly. A hydraulic conductor directly connects corresponding ends of the rear wheel cylinder and piston assemblies to provide a hydraulic conduction between those assemblies in response to conduction of the differential hydraulic signal.

  • Patent number: 5161822
    Abstract: The invention concerns a tilt correction system with at least one pair of cylinder and piston assemblies which are hydraulically operated. The extent of tilt correction is limited by grooves internal to the cylinders of the assemblies which short hydraulic potentials once the pistons of the assemblies have moved from a rest position to a position adjacent the grooves. A preferable arrangement includes connecting each assembly between an anti-roll bar and an axle.

  • Patent number: 4589678
    Abstract: First and second cross-bars extend laterally across the width of a vehicle and are pivotally connected intermediate their lengths in scissors fashion. One end of each cross-bar is pivotally connected to a wheel support assembly which is in turn pivotally connected to the vehicle body by a spring and damper assembly. The other end of the first cross-bar is pivotally connected to the vehicle body by a hydraulic cylinder and piston assembly. The other end of the second cross-bar is pivotally connected via a lever to the actuator of a variable flow hydraulic valve. Lateral forces exerted by the wheels and cross-bars relative to the vehicle body during a turn operate the hydraulic valve to send a proportionate amount of hydraulic fluid to the upper or lower portion of the hydraulic cylinder to thereby prevent rolling of the vehicle body.
