Abstract: Devices and techniques for inferential current stimulation. A device includes a power source, multiple pairs of electrodes, and a controller. Each pair of electrodes is adapted to apply current from the power source in a current path to stimulate a subcutaneous target. The current paths overlap at an interference point which is a result of a summation of the electrical fields of the current delivered via the pairs of electrodes. The controller is configured to send control signals in order to control the current delivered from the power source to each pair of electrodes.

Abstract: Devices and apparatuses for inter-device stimulation. A device includes a pair of electrodes. The pair of electrodes is electrically connected to a power source. The pair of electrodes is adapted to apply a current delivered from the power source to stimulate a vagus nerve of a subject. An interelectrode distance between the pair of electrodes is defined based on a predetermined height of a carotid triangle. The power source is communicatively connected to a controller. The controller is configured to send control signals in order to control the current delivered from the power source to the pair of electrodes in a continuous stimulation pattern.

Abstract: Devices and techniques for vagus nerve stimulation. A device includes a power source; a pair of electrodes having an interelectrode distance defined to facilitate vagus nerve stimulation; and a controller configured to control current delivered from the power source to the pair of electrodes in a continuous stimulation pattern. Certain devices discussed herein are designed to be applied at a carotid triangle of a neck of a subject. Other devices discussed herein are designed to be applied to a cymba concha of an ear of a subject.

Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure involve a system and method for load balancing a string of jars. The temperature and voltage of each jar is measured and a target voltage for the jar is set based on the measured temperature. A current is supplied to the jar in order to maintain, increase, or decrease the jar's voltage.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a branch circuit monitoring (BCM) system that may include a first collector board with a first plurality of connector ports connected to a first plurality of branch circuits, and a second collector board with a second plurality of connector ports connected to a second plurality of branch circuits. Each of the first and second plurality of connector ports may receive a respective first and second plurality of connector plugs configured to be receivable in the respective first and second plurality connector ports. The first collector board may be coupled to an aggregator board such that the first plurality of current sensors may report branch circuit measurements to the aggregator board. The plugs may be connected to associated leads connected to respective first plurality and second plurality of current sensors. The first board and the second board may be in communication using a bus protocol.

Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure involve a thermal monitoring system that includes multiple thermal sensor nodes and a control node. The thermal sensor nodes include an infrared sensor, an ambient temperature sensor, at least one LED, and a controller with a memory for storing temperature measurements and a sending and receiving information to and from the control node. The control node for receives, stores, and outputs temperature measurements from at least one thermal sensor node.
