Publication number: 20220221556Abstract: A laser scanner determines the direction and distance of one or more targets by emitting two substantially parallel beams and receiving respective return beams. Components for handling the received beams are affixed to a monolithic block to ensure fixed relative placement. The direction of the target is determined using an optical encoder to reduce the timing window for interpolation to a fraction of the time it takes for the scanner to make a full revolution. A detection algorithm adapts detection thresholds for the different signatures of return signals depending on the distance to the target. Distance calculations are also adjusted for thermal expansion of the scanner components by including a temperature-variant thermometer output signal in the distance calculation algorithm. Target location and orientation information is used to adjust the location of ADAS calibration targets and perform the ADAS calibration process.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 13, 2022Publication date: July 14, 2022Applicant: Vehicle Service Group, LLCInventors: Robert Elliott, Brent Johnson, Michael Hill, Steven Taylor

Publication number: 20220107121Abstract: A controller for a refrigeration system includes a processing circuit having one or more processors and memory. The processing circuit is configured to calculate a superheat of a gas refrigerant exiting a first side of a subcooler based on a measured temperature and a measured pressure of the gas refrigerant and compare the calculated superheat to a superheat threshold. In response to a determination that the calculated superheat is less than the superheat threshold, the processing circuit closes an expansion valve to restrict a flow of the gas refrigerant through a second side of the subcooler. In response to a determination that the calculated superheat is equal to or greater than the superheat threshold, the processing circuit operates the expansion valve to drive a temperature of a subcooled liquid refrigerant exiting the second side of the subcooler to a subcooled liquid temperature setpoint.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2021Publication date: April 7, 2022Inventors: Nassim Khaled, Michael Hill

Publication number: 20220104761Abstract: In general, techniques are described for automatic disablement of alerts for diabetic conditions. A device including a memory and a processor may be configured to perform the techniques. The memory may store alert data. The processor may obtain projected levels of glucose in a patient over a time frame, and determine whether the projected levels of glucose leave a prescribed range. The processor may generate, when the projected levels of glucose in the patient leave the prescribed range during the time frame and based on the alert data, a graphical alert indicating that the projected levels of glucose will leave the prescribed range.

Patent number: 11215662Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for mitigating damage to voltage regulator (VR) circuitry of a packaged device. In an embodiment, the VR circuitry comprises a circuit leg between a first node and a second node. During a burn-in process, the VR circuitry provides a regulated output voltage to a load circuit via the first node, wherein the output voltage is based on a supply voltage received via the second node. While the VR circuitry provides the regulated output voltage to the load circuit, a supply current is provided to the load circuit via a path which is independent of any leg which is between the first node and the second node. In another embodiment, an integrated circuit (IC) chip of the packaged device comprises the load circuit, and the leg further comprises an off-chip coil structure which is distinct from the IC chip.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2018Date of Patent: January 4, 2022Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: William Lambert, Kaladhar Radhakrishnan, Michael Hill
