  • Publication number: 20250062040
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides devices, systems, and methods for capturing and analyzing behavioral and physiological data of subjects for treatment, modification, and manipulation discovery. In some embodiments, a method for classifying a drug is provided. The method includes obtaining observational data concerning an animal subject to which the drug is administered, the observational data acquired using an enclosure for the animal subject, the enclosure instrumented with at least one sensing device. The method also includes extracting features by applying the observational data to a machine-learning feature-extraction component. The method further includes predicting a class label of the drug by applying the features to a machine-learning classifier component, the machine-learning classifier component trained to predict the class label of the drug from, at least in part, the features. The method further includes providing an indication of the class label.

  • Patent number: 11688263
    Abstract: This document describes techniques and devices to detect and classify human and animal presence and/or motion based on changes in the interaction of the human or animal with Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) radio frequency (RF) signals within or about a building structure, such as a home or office. A first WLAN device transmits a sounding packet to a second WLAN device and receives an acknowledgement (ACK) of receiving the sounding packet by the second WLAN device. The first WLAN device uses the received ACK to determine Channel State Information (CSI) for an RF signal path between the first WLAN device and the second WLAN device, aggregates the determined CSI with additional CSI, and uses the aggregated CSI to determine a presence or a motion within the structure.

  • Patent number: 10583915
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for aircraft spoiler lockout. One embodiment is a system that includes a locking device that removably engages a control member inside a cockpit of an aircraft. The locking device restricts motion of the control member to prevent movement of wing surfaces of the aircraft. The system further includes a controller in communication with a wireless transmitter. The controller determines from a signal sent by the wireless transmitter whether both handheld switches connected to the wireless transmitter are being actively held. If so, the controller directs a supply of power to the locking device thereby causing the locking device to temporarily release the control member. Otherwise, the locking device restricts motion of the control member.

  • Publication number: 20190148984
    Abstract: In aspects, indoor to outdoor wireless power delivery is described that provides continuous power through a building structure. A transmitter receives an indication of a required continuous power from a receiver, configures one or more settings to generate an electromagnetic field to transfer the required continuous power, and generates the electromagnetic field to transfer the required continuous power to the receiver. In other aspects of indoor to outdoor wireless power delivery, a transmitter and a receiver are aligned to provide continuous power through a building structure. The transmitter and the receiver enter an alignment mode, the transmitter produces an electromagnetic field to inductively transfer power to the receiver, and the receiver senses the electromagnetic field produced by the transmitter and provides an indication of an alignment of the transmitter and the receiver to a user of the system.
