  • Patent number: 11796754
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system and method of controlling a strander by wireless visual monitoring. In certain embodiments, a stranding system includes at least one vision device mounted to a rotating structure of a strander. The at least one vision device is configured to capture a view of at least a portion of a subunit reel of at least one of a set of payoff units of the rotating structure to generate vision data. The stranding system further includes at least one wireless communication module mounted to the rotating structure to receive and wirelessly transmit the vision data over a high-bandwidth data link. The stranding system is configured to proactively identify payout hazards of the subunit package (e.g., cable crossover) to, for example, prevent damage to the strander.

  • Patent number: 11791557
    Abstract: A multi-band software defined antenna array tile including a set of pairs of frequency converters associated with a respective coupled dipole array antenna element and comprising a principal polarization converter for applying an oscillating signal to a first partial beam-formed data stream to generate an oscillating partial beam-formed data stream, where the oscillating signal is associated with an oscillating signal frequency received from a memory operatively connected to a system controller. The principal polarization converter applies a three-stage halfband filter to the first oscillating partial beam-formed data stream to generate a filtered partial beam-formed data stream, applies time delay to the filtered partial beam-formed data stream to generate a first partial beam and transmits a partial beam along with other partial beams to a digital software system interface through a data transport bus.

  • Publication number: 20230309598
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the identification of a group of microorganisms, which are relatively abundant in the microbial communities associated with fruits and vegetables typically consumed raw and therefore transient or permanent members of the human microbiota. The consumption of mixtures of these microbes at relevant doses will produce a beneficial health effect in the host. The present invention relates to methods of using these microbes to increase the presence of beneficial microbes in crops eaten raw.

  • Patent number: 11778538
    Abstract: Technologies disclosed herein are directed to context-based mobile device management. According to one embodiment, an application executing in a mobile device detects an event to trigger context-based management of the mobile device. A usage context associated with the mobile device is determined. One or more policies to enforce on the mobile device are identified as a function of the usage context. The application enforces the one or more policies on the mobile device.
