Abstract: A deck plate positioning system for an agricultural harvester includes a controller comprising a memory and a processor. The controller is configured to receive a sensor signal indicative of an image of harvested crop material within a feederhouse of the agricultural harvester. The controller is also configured to analyze the image to measure at least one metric of the harvested crop material related to physical geometries and sizes of the harvested crop material within the feederhouse. The controller is further configured to automatically adjust positions of deck plates of a header of the agricultural harvester based on the at least one metric.

Abstract: A protection device includes a first protection stage comprising a first p-type transistor comprising a first terminal, a second terminal, and a first gate terminal. A first voltage regulating device is connected between the first terminal and the second terminal. A second voltage regulating device is connected between the first terminal and the first gate terminal. A third voltage regulating device is connected to the first gate terminal. A first current source is connected to the first gate terminal.

Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus related to energy management in a building. In one aspect, a method includes providing a plurality of apparatus. Each apparatus of the plurality of apparatus includes a controller, a light, and a heating/cooling device. The controller is in communication with a control system, and the control system controls the electrical system of a building. A power price is received from the control system at a first apparatus of the plurality of apparatus. The power price is compared to a set point power price. Power supplied to at least one of the light of the first apparatus, the heating/cooling device of the first apparatus, a lighting device in a region proximate the first apparatus, and a heating/cooling device in the region proximate the first apparatus is adjusted based on comparing the power price to the set point power price.
