  • Patent number: 10380521
    Abstract: A work order prediction system is described. The work order prediction system analyzes retrieved sensor signal activity records to compare counts of signal activity in defined signal groupings to corresponding predetermined thresholds of sensor signal activity and generates a report based on the comparison when sensor signal activity exceeds the determined threshold values. The predetermined thresholds of sensor signal are determined for each signal grouping by comparing corresponding groupings of service record activity against determined counts of historical sensor signal activity to establish threshold values for each of the groupings and produce a model based on the comparison of the historical sensor signal activity to service activity.

  • Patent number: 9572532
    Abstract: A hermetically sealed electronic closure device, or button, includes a self-renewing power source, a sensor for measuring a metric, a memory storing information, a data processing circuit for controlling operations of the device, and a transceiver for sending and receiving information. The device is a standard part of a clothing item that is inconspicuous to a wearer of the clothing item.

  • Publication number: 20140306349
    Abstract: Some implementations provide an interposer that includes a substrate, a via in the substrate, and an oxidation layer. The via includes a metal material. The oxidation layer is between the via and the substrate. In some implementations, the substrate is a silicon substrate. In some implementations, the oxidation layer is a thermal oxide formed by exposing the substrate to heat. In some implementations, the oxidation layer is configured to provide electrical insulation between the via and the substrate. In some implementations, the interposer also includes an insulation layer. In some implementations, the insulation layer is a polymer layer. In some implementations, the interposer also includes at least one interconnect on the surface of the interposer. The at least one interconnect is positioned on the surface of the interposer such that the oxidation layer is between the interconnect and the substrate.

  • Patent number: 8625337
    Abstract: A probabilistic programming current is injected into a cluster of bi-stable probabilistic switching elements, the probabilistic programming current having parameters set to result in a less than unity probability of any given bi-stable switching element switching, and a resistance of the cluster of bi-stable switching elements is detected. The probabilistic programming current is injected and the resistance of the cluster state detected until a termination condition is met. Optionally the termination condition is detecting the resistance of the cluster of bi-stable switching elements at a value representing a multi-bit data.
