  • Patent number: 10513400
    Abstract: Disclosed are a method and/or a system for real-time analysis and marking of a target surface using a digital camera coupled marking device. In one embodiment, a master controller receives a real-time digital camera signal from the digital camera of a marking device communicatively coupled to the master controller. The master controller analyzes the digital camera signal using an image recognition algorithm, a machine vision algorithm, and a database and archives a visual state and an object design parameter of an object. The master controller compares the visual state of an object with a library of known visual states in the database to extract an associated marking pattern and a desired marking location of the object. The master controller generates and sends a marking command to a pin marker of the marking device. The pin marker engraves the marking pattern onto the object in real time.

  • Patent number: 10512570
    Abstract: A cot can include a support frame that extends between a front end and a back end. A front leg and a back leg can be slidingly coupled to the support frame. A front actuator can be coupled to the front leg and slide the front leg to retract and extend the front leg. A back actuator can be coupled to the back leg and slide the back leg to retract and extend the front leg. One or more processors can execute machine readable instructions to receive signals from one or more sensors indicative of the front end of the cot and the front leg. The one or more processors can actuate the back actuator to extend the back leg to raise the back end of the cot, when the front end of the cot is supported by a surface and the front leg is retracted a predetermined amount.

  • Patent number: 10515671
    Abstract: Logic such as a memory controller writes primary data from an incoming write request as well as corresponding replicated primary data (which is a copy of the primary data) to one or more different memory banks of random access memory in response to determining a memory access contention condition for the address (including a range of addresses) corresponding to the incoming write request. When the memory bank containing the primary data is busy servicing a write request, such as to another row of memory in the bank, a read request for the primary data is serviced by reading the replicated primary data from the different memory bank of the random access memory to service the incoming read request.
