Publication number: 20230278602Abstract: A system and method for automating railroad maintenance by a tie gang using electronic tie marking (ETM) configured to optimize railroad asset maintenance. The system enables collision avoidance between members of the tie gang performing maintenance on railway assets (e.g., Rails, Ties, Ballasts, Turnouts, Crossings, etc.). The system can generate production numbers for the railway assets and evaluate an asset queue for the tie gang to perform maintenance. The system can utilize real-time updates from the tie gang to optimize work output. The system can provide a customizable user interface to identify, track, and process information related to maintenance of the railroad asset. The system also provides for a heads-up-display (HUD) to notify an operator of relevant information, such as maintenance information, travel indicators, and updated asset queue. The system can identify a next location and calculate an optimum path based on sensor input incorporating machine-specific and environmental characteristics.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 31, 2023Publication date: September 7, 2023Applicant: BNSF Railway CompanyInventors: Michael James Brick, Lisa Marie Kelly, Samuel Minton, Richard William Keller

Patent number: 11740884Abstract: A method, computer system, and computer program product for migrating a service (e.g. microservice) from using a first application programming interface version to using a second (e.g. newer or updated) application programming interface version. The method may include determining a difference between specifications of the first and second versions of the application programming interface. Historical usage of the first version of the application programming interface by the service may then be analyzed with respect to the difference so as to determine if the service meets the specification of the second version of the application programming interface. Responsive to determining the service meets the specification of the second version of the application programming interface difference, the service may be migrated from using the first version of the application programming interface to using the second version of the application programming interface.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2019Date of Patent: August 29, 2023Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Jack William Donato Evans, Martin A.

Patent number: 11739963Abstract: Systems and techniques are described for alerting individuals of HVAC system issues in their home. In some implementations, a monitoring system monitors a property that includes sensors located throughout the property and generates sensor data. A monitor control unit receives thermostat data from a thermostat that indicates activity of the HVAC system and temperature history of the property. The monitor control unit applies the thermostat and the sensor data to an HVAC model that is trained using past sensor data, past thermostat data, past errors of the HVAC system. The monitor control unit determines an error of the HVAC system from the HVAC model output. The monitor control unit determines an action for likely correcting the error of the HVAC system. The monitor control unit provides, for output, data identifying the error of the HVAC system and the action for likely correcting the error of the HVAC system.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2020Date of Patent: August 29, 2023Assignee: Alarm.com IncorporatedInventors: Robert Nathan Picardi, Peter Richard Williams, Zachary William Seid, Kyle Rankin Johnson, Daniel Marc Goodman, Craig Carl Heffernan, Caspar John Anderegg, Harrison Wayne Donahue, Gustaf Nicolaus Maxwell Lonaeus

Patent number: 11728613Abstract: An amplifier operable with an electric drive signal can amplify signal light having a signal wavelength. A laser diode has an active section with input and output facets. The facets are in optical communication with the signal light and are configured to pass the signal light through the laser diode. The active section is configured to generate pump light in response to injection of the electrical drive signal into the active section. The pump light has a pump wavelength different from the signal wavelength. A doped fiber doped with an active dopant is in optical communication with the signal light and is in optical communication with at least a portion of the pump light from the laser diode. The pump wavelength of the pump light is configured to interact with the active dopant of the fiber and thereby amplify the signal light.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2021Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignee: II-VI DELAWARE, INC.Inventors: Ian Peter McClean, Nadhum Kadhum Zayer, Martin Richard Williams

Patent number: 11719687Abstract: A method for obtaining information encoded on an electrochemical test strip is provided. The test strip has two electrodes disposed within a sample space and the information is encoded on the test strip prior to introduction of liquid sample. The method includes the step of introducing sample to the sample space so that the sample is in contact with the two electrodes within the sample space. In another step a value is determined that is representative of the double layer capacitance of the test strip and/or the equivalent capacitance of the test strip. The determined value is then translated into information reflecting a characteristic of the test strip prior to introduction of sample.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2018Date of Patent: August 8, 2023Assignee: AgaMatrix, Inc.Inventors: Sridhar Iyengar, Ian Harding, Richard Williams, Kevin Cai

Patent number: 11718320Abstract: Systems and methods for using transmission sensor(s) in localization of an autonomous vehicle (“AV”) are described herein. Some implementations receive instance(s) of transmission sensor data generated by transmission sensor(s) of the AV, generate pose instance(s) of a pose of the AV based on the instance(s) of the transmission sensor data, and cause the AV to be controlled based on the pose instance(s). In some of those implementations, the pose instance(s) can be generated based on steering data the AV that indicates steering angle(s) of the autonomous, and that temporally correspond to the instance(s) of the transmission sensor data. In various implementations, the pose instance(s) may only be generated or utilized based on the instance(s) of the transmission sensor data (and optionally the steering data) in response to detecting an adverse event at the AV.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2020Date of Patent: August 8, 2023Assignee: AURORA OPERATIONS, INC.Inventors: James Scott Jackson, Abhay Vardhan, Adam Richard Williams, Yekeun Jeong, Ethan Eade
