  • Publication number: 20250069362
    Abstract: Systems and methods include extracting item parameters from images of items positioned at a POS system. The item parameters associated with each item are indicative as to an identification of each item thereby enabling the identification of each item based on the item parameters. The item parameters are analyzed to determine whether the item parameters match item parameters stored in a database. The database stores different combinations of item parameters to thereby identify each item based on each different combination of item parameters associated with each item. Each item positioned at the POS system is identified when the item parameters for each item match item parameters as stored in the database and fail to identify each item when the item parameters fail to match item parameters. The item parameters associated with the items that fail to match are streamed to the database thereby enabling the identification of each failed item.

  • Patent number: 12115860
    Abstract: The invention provides in some aspects a transport system comprising a guideway having a plurality of regions in which one or more vehicles are propelled, where each such vehicle includes a magnet. Disposed along each region are a plurality of propulsion coils, each comprising one or more turns that are disposed about a common axis, such that the respective common axes of the plurality of coils in that region are (i) substantially aligned with one another, and (ii) orthogonal to a direction in which the vehicles are to be propelled in that region. The plurality of coils of at least one such region are disposed on opposing sides of the magnets of vehicles being propelled along that region so as to exert a propulsive force of substance on those magnets.

  • Patent number: 10794023
    Abstract: A longitudinal beam barrier system comprises a longitudinal beam and a post linked together via a fastener incorporating at least one deformable washer. The link is made in a releasable and tunable manner dependent on an applied force via the at least one deformable washer. Release may be made dependent on both the magnitude and direction of the force so that release may be a result of different release forces in different force angles. The deformable washer may be designed to transfer a longitudinal beam load force from a fastener to a post wall, the washer extending around the fastener and having a first face that bears on the fastener or a part thereof (or forms part of the fastener) and an opposing face that at least partly bears on a part of the post wall or walls. The washer is designed so that, in the event of an impact of sufficient force on the longitudinal beam, post, or fastener, the washer at least partly deforms allowing separation to occur between the post or posts and the longitudinal beam.
