Abstract: Example embodiments relate to temporally modulated light emission and defect detection in light detection and ranging (lidar) devices and cameras. An example embodiment includes a method. The method includes detecting, by a first detector via an optical component, a background signal corresponding to a surrounding environment. The method also includes illuminating, by a first light source, a first portion of the optical component with a first light signal. Additionally, the method includes detecting, by the first detector when one or more defects are present in a body of the first portion of the optical component or on a surface of the first portion of the optical component, the first light signal. Further, the method includes determining, by a computing device, when one or more defects are present in the body of the first portion of the optical component or on the surface of the first portion of the optical component.

Abstract: An information handling system includes a management controller that may determine average power consumption of a processor, and determine average power measurement at a power supply unit. If the average power consumption of the processor does not match the average power measurement at the power supply unit, then the system may calibrate the average power consumption of the processor to match the average power measurement at the power supply unit.

Abstract: A piston for an internal combustion engine is formed from an upper part connected to a lower part. The upper part has a combustion bowl, a top land, and a ring belt extending circumferentially around the piston upper part. The lower part contains pin bosses and a piston skirt. A circumferential cooling channel is formed by joining the upper and lower parts. There is an oil inlet formed in one piece with the piston lower part. The inlet has a lower extremity and an upper extremity that terminates at the floor of the cooling channel. A bore extends through the oil inlet from the lower extremity up though the floor of the cooling channel. The circumference of the bore increases from the upper extremity to the lower extremity, so the oil inlet forms a funnel shape.

Abstract: A piston may include a piston crown including radially inner and outer crown mating surfaces, the crown defining at least in part a cooling gallery extending about a periphery of the crown. The piston may include a piston skirt including a pair of oppositely disposed pin bosses, the pin bosses each defining a piston pin bore. The piston skirt may have a radially inner skirt mating surface cooperating along a radially inner interface region with the radially inner crown mating surface, and a radially outer skirt mating surface cooperating along a radially outer interface region with the radially outer crown mating surface such that the cooling gallery is substantially enclosed. The piston may include at least one cooling fin extending from an interior surface of the cooling gallery.

Abstract: An exemplary piston assembly and method of making the same are disclosed. A piston assembly may include a piston crown and piston skirt. The crown may include a ring belt portion defining at least in part a cooling gallery, as well as radially inner and outer crown mating surfaces. The skirt may be received in a central opening of the crown such that the crown and skirt cooperate to form an upper combustion bowl surface. The skirt also may include radially inner and outer skirt mating surfaces that are abutted with the inner and outer crown mating surfaces, respectively, such that the cooling gallery is generally enclosed by the skirt.
