  • Publication number: 20230257009
    Abstract: Examples relate to digital context aware (DCA) data collection. In some examples, a DCA start location component is positioned at a first location along a travel route, and a DCA end location component is positioned at a second location along the travel route. In response to using a wireless interface to detect the DCA start location component, data collection of measurements by a sensor are initiated. In response to using the wireless interface to detect the DCA end location component, the data collection by the sensor is halted.

  • Patent number: 7479008
    Abstract: A burner apparatus for an indoor or outdoor fireplace, fire pit, stove or oven is shown. The burner apparatus operates to produce natural gas fueled or liquid petroleum fueled amber flames among artificial logs, coals or a combination of artificial logs and coals, simulating a natural fire. One embodiment of the burner apparatus comprises a burner tube loop for the distribution of fuel, a fuel/air mixing valve for mixing the fuel and air before ignition of the resulting fuel/air mixture, metal cups for the dissipation of the fuel/air mixture and flames, an ignition system for igniting the fuel/air mixture, a control system for monitoring and controlling the ignition of the fuel and for regulating the flow of fuel, and artificial logs, coals or a combination of logs and coals placed around the burner tube loop to provide for an aesthetically pleasing and natural looking display.
