Abstract: In some examples, user journey carbon footprint reduction may include generating, for a vehicle associated with a user, a carbon emission quota for user journey carbon footprint reduction. A predicted journey carbon emissions may be generated for the vehicle for a specified journey. Based on collaborative filtering, at least one goal-based and conditions-based recommendation may be generated for the user of the vehicle for the specified journey for the user journey carbon footprint reduction. Based on a user behavior model, a user-interface display may be generated for the specified journey for the user journey carbon footprint reduction. Further, based on the user behavior model, and real-time monitoring of the user and the vehicle, a real-time update of the user-interface display may be generated for the specified journey for the user journey carbon footprint reduction.

Abstract: An edge coupler for coupling a light beam (e.g., a laser beam) into a waveguide comprises a first waveguide section characterized by a first thickness and a first constant width, a second waveguide section physically coupled to the first waveguide section and characterized by the first thickness and a gradually decreasing width, and a third waveguide section partially overlapping with the second waveguide section at an overlap region, the third waveguide section characterized by a gradually increasing width and a second thickness different from (e.g., greater than) the first thickness. In some embodiments, a surface (e.g., the top or bottom surface) of the second waveguide section and a surface (e.g., the top or bottom surface) of the third waveguide section are on a same plane.

Abstract: A labeling device for a syringe that includes a first labeling subsystem adapted to print a first label having machine readable information and a second labeling subsystem adapted to print a second label having human readable information is disclosed. The first labeling subsystem includes a label applicator adapted to automatically apply the first label to a portion of the syringe. The first labeling subsystem includes a syringe clamp assembly that securely holds the syringe while the label applicator automatically applies a first label to the syringe. The second labeling subsystem includes a removal device adapted to automatically remove a backing material from the second label.
