  • Patent number: 11870201
    Abstract: A monitoring device may receive sensor information, associated with an optical device included in a high-power fiber laser, from a set of sensors associated with the optical device. The monitoring device may determine, based on the sensor information, a set of operational properties of the optical device. The set of operational properties may include: a health property that describes a health of one or more components of the optical device, a degradation property that describes degradation of one or more components of the optical device, an environmental property that describes an environment of the optical device, or a process property associated with a process in which the optical device is being used. The monitoring device may identify whether an operational property, of the set of operational properties, satisfies a condition, and may selectively perform a monitoring action based on whether the operational property satisfies the condition.

  • Publication number: 20240004749
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for detecting a failed temperature sensor within a data storage device and for mitigating the loss of the sensor are provided. One such data storage device includes a non-volatile memory (NVM), a set of temperature sensors, and a processor coupled to the NVM and the temperature sensors. The processor is configured to detect failure of one of the temperature sensors and obtain temperature data from the other temperature sensors. The processor is further configured to estimate, based on the obtained temperature data, the temperature at the failed sensor, and then control at least one function of the data storage device based on the estimated temperature, such as controlling entry into a Read Only mode. In some examples, the processor estimates the temperature at the failed sensor or at various virtual sensor locations using pre-determined formulas having offsets and coefficients determined during an initial machine learning calibration procedure.
