Abstract: A redundant lighting driver system includes a primary driver and a backup driver. The primary driver and the backup driver are electrically coupled to receive an alternating current (AC) power from a power source. The primary driver or the backup driver power a light source at a time. The primary driver is configured to provide a primary power to the light source, and the backup driver is configured to provide a backup power to the light source when the primary power is unavailable. The backup driver is designed to withstand a larger power surge than the primary driver.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to systems and methods for providing hand hygiene dispenser stations configured to remind users to use the hand hygiene dispenser stations.

Abstract: A lighting device, including a first and a second ferroresonant transformer, is provided. Each ferroresonant transformer includes an input winding, an energy storage winding, and an output winding. Each input winding is configured to receive the same AC power. The input windings are arranged on the primary sides of the ferroresonant transformers. The energy storage windings and the output windings are arranged on the secondary side of the ferroresonant transformers. Each energy storage winding is electrically coupled to the same group of capacitors. The output windings are configured to provide output power signals based on the capacitors and the AC power. The output power signals have constant current and constant voltage. The output power signals are rectified, smoothed, and provided to one or more LEDs. Additional ferroresonant transformers may be added to the lighting device to accommodate requirements for increased power levels.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to an irrigation system pipe joint or span coupling, which can connect a span of an irrigation system to another structure. In examples, the joint can include various components that attach an end of a first pipe or joint to an end of a second pipe or joint. For example, the end of the first joint can include a receiver plate, which can include a recess with a bushing. In addition, the end of the second joint can include a post, hook, or other elongated member that, in order to connect the first joint to the second joint, is insertable into the bushing.

Abstract: Provided herein are cells, enzymes, and methods for improved cannabinoid production.

Abstract: Described herein are the discovery and/or optimization of enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of olivetolic acid, divarinic acid, and analogs thereof.

Abstract: An irrigation system having a pipeline supported by one or more towers includes an improved truss connection system having a means for readily adjusting a crown height of the pipeline. A pair of cooperating members define a joint which selectively couples headed ends of adjacent truss rods together to form a truss rail of a truss system that supports the pipeline. A single fastener may fasten the cooperating members, a strut, and a cross-member together at the joint. A length of the truss rail may be decreased by holding the truss rods closer together. In an aspect, the headed ends of the adjacent truss rods are held closer together by inserting a shim in one of the joints. Decreasing the length of the truss rail increases the deflection of the pipeline and raises the crown height.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are novel CBGA and CBGVA synthases and methods for improvement of their overall activities for the synthesis of CBGA and CBGVA from their respective precursors, olivetolic acid (OA) or divarinic acid (DVA) and GPP. Also disclosed are fusion proteins to enhance synthesis of CBGA and CBGVA. The methods described herein also increase the titer and the purity of CBGA and CBGVA made by a cell by 1) decreasing the formation of byproducts FCBGA and FCBGVA that are synthesized from the respective prenylation of OA and DVA with FPP, and/or 2) increasing the intracellular availability of OA and DVA.

Abstract: A light fade controller includes an input power detection circuit configured to detect whether an input power is available. The light fade controller further includes a power discharge circuit configured to enable a power discharge path to discharge output power from a driver circuit through the power discharge path in response to the input power detection circuit detecting that the input power is unavailable.

Abstract: As an IV infiltration occurs and fluid leaks into surrounding tissues, several physiological changes are expected locally. The systems and methods described herein provide a scalable automated IV infiltration detection device to provide medical staff an early warning of a possible infiltration such that they can respond accordingly. The systems and methods capture the physiological state of the user at or around a peripheral catheter insertion site by incorporating one or more modalities of wearable sensing, processing the data collected from these wearable sensors, detecting the presence of extravascular fluid, and providing an indication to a medical professional.
