Abstract: Methods and apparatus are disclosed to determine a power state of a device. An example apparatus includes a chart generator to determine respective counts for a plurality of measurements during a calibration period, the measurements indicative of an amount of power drawn by the device, the counts indicating respective numbers of times the respective measurements were detected. The example apparatus also includes a calculator to identify a first threshold based on at least one of the counts, and determine a second threshold. The example apparatus also includes a comparator to compare a measurement to the first threshold and to the second threshold, and a state detector to store an indication that the device is in an indeterminate state if the measurement is greater than the first threshold and less than the second threshold.

Abstract: Example embodiments of the present invention may provide a method of dispensing a product having a verified identity to be labeled and packaged without requiring additional validation and verification. According to an example embodiment, a dispensing system may include a display, a workstation, a user interface, and a controller. The controller may be configured to receive an indication that the workstation is clear of any products, such as products associated with a previous dispensing operation. The controller may: receive provide for presentation on the display of an identification of a batch of a first product type to be retrieved in response to the indication that the workstation is clear; receive an identification of a batch of products of a first product type that is received at the workstation; and identify a queue of orders for the first product type as maintained in a memory.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus to determine a power state of an information presentation device. The method includes measuring power drawn by the information presentation device during a calibration period to generate a log of measurement values, determining, by executing an instruction with a processor, respective counts indicating respective numbers of times respective different ones of the measurement values were detected during the calibration period, and determining, by executing an instruction with the processor, a first threshold based on at least one of the counts. The method also includes determining whether the presentation device is in an ON state based on a comparison of measured power drawn by the information presentation device after the calibration period to the first threshold.

Abstract: An apparatus for electrical current measurement. The apparatus may include a power input such as a current transformer that can be magnetically coupled to a line being measured. The apparatus may also include an energy harvesting circuit to parasitically harvest energy from the current transformer and an energy metering circuit to measure the current on the line. A controller can control the switching of a dynamic switch between an energy harvesting mode and an energy metering mode. The apparatus may also include a wireless transceiver. A plurality of these apparatuses may be combined into a network of devices to relay information from multiple current meters to a data concentrator and ultimately the Internet.

Abstract: Disclosed are combination therapies and related compositions that may contain one or more of a p53 potentiating agent, a DNA-damaging agent, an agent that inhibits cell cycle check point, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Also disclosed are methods of using such compositions for the treatment of conditions related to T cell and/or B cell activation in subjects in need of such treatment.

Abstract: One embodiment induces a display system for use on the exterior of a vehicle having a display, a vehicle speed sensor, a trigger device, and a processor coupled to the speed sensor and the trigger device. The trigger device is configured to identify a trigger event. The processor is configured to implement one of three operational modes of the display system based on the speed and state of the vehicle: a first operational mode when no trigger event is identified, the vehicle is on, and the vehicle is at a first speed; a second operational mode when no trigger event is identified and the vehicle is at a second speed different than the first speed; and a third operational mode when the trigger event is identified. The processor is further configured to render content on the display based upon the operational mode.

Abstract: A pedal assembly having an electronic position sensor for actuating acceleration and deceleration through electronic signals sent from the position sensor to a processor associated with a throttle to coordinate acceleration, speed maintenance or deceleration to the position signals received from the pedal assembly. Resistance to pedal movement may be provided by a friction element engaged with a friction surface. The pedal may be fixedly attached to a pedal lever arm which may be engaged with the friction element. The pedal lever arm may disengage the friction element to allow the pedal lever arm to return to idle if the friction element becomes stuck. Further, a moveable engagement between the spring carrier and the friction element may allow biasing force from a spring to be applied to the pedal lever arm when movement of a portion of the spring carrier is inhibited by the friction element being stuck.
