  • Publication number: 20250122675
    Abstract: An anchoring system and method includes a guide rail having a rail body that includes a track that has a different width at a first end of the rail body than at a second end of the rail body. An applicator assembly includes a linkage system and an anchor system. The linkage system includes rollers that are disposed within the track of the guide rail. The applicator assembly moves in a first direction based on movement of the rollers within the track. The linkage system includes an extension component having a contoured surface that engages a first side of a rail. The anchor system moves in a first direction of rotation toward a second side of the rail and the extension component moves in a second direction of rotation toward the first side of the rail during an application operation.

  • Publication number: 20240254697
    Abstract: Provided herein is a workhead assembly for a railway anchor applicator that can have an anchor clipping mechanism can be configured to operably couple to an anchor receiving mechanism. The anchor clipping mechanism can have an apply lever configured to be coupled to an actuator. The apply lever may include a fulcrum configured couple to a moveable frame of the workhead. The anchor clipping mechanism may include an applicator arm having an elongated body with a first end, a second end at a distal location, and a middle portion between the first end and the second end. The middle portion may be configured to pivotably couple to the apply lever and a guide pin is located on the second end. An apply cam can be configured to couple to the moveable frame. The apply cam can have a slot configured to receive the guide pin.

  • Publication number: 20210232801
    Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a device may receive, from a fingerprint scanner, fingerprint scan data associated with an image that depicts a scanned fingerprint of a user; process, using a model-based iterative reconstruction (MBIR) model, the fingerprint scan data to generate an enhanced image associated with the image; and perform, based at least in part on the enhanced image, a match analysis to authenticate the user. Numerous other aspects are provided.

  • Patent number: 10733409
    Abstract: Systems, methods and apparatus for configuring a fingerprint sensor to operate in a capacitive sensing mode and an ultrasonic sensing mode are disclosed. A fingerprint sensor may be configured to operate in a capacitive sensing mode by driving a sensing electrode using a controller. In some implementations, an object positioned on or near the sensing electrode may be detected using the fingerprint sensor in the capacitive sensing mode, and the controller can drive electrodes of the fingerprint sensor differently to configure the fingerprint sensor to operate in an ultrasonic sensing mode. In some implementations, an applications processor may be instructed to authenticate a fingerprint of the object from image data obtained when the fingerprint sensor is operating in the ultrasonic sensing mode. In some implementations, a display of a mobile device containing the fingerprint sensor may be unlocked, or the mobile device may be woken up when the fingerprint is authenticated.
