  • Publication number: 20240128762
    Abstract: In various embodiments, a process for configuring or commissioning a solar power system includes receiving, at a controller, hardware identifiers of a plurality of power electronics modules to be configured. Each of the plurality of power electronics modules of at least a portion of the plurality of power electronics modules is associated with a corresponding photovoltaic panel. A hub is configured to wirelessly communicate with the plurality of power electronics modules. The controller is physically connected to the hub and communicates with the hub via wiring that also carries power from photovoltaic panels to an inverter. The process includes configuring, by the controller, the plurality of power electronics modules using the received hardware identifiers.

  • Publication number: 20240109564
    Abstract: A method is provided that can include activating at least two wireless communication channels in parallel, between a first wireless transceiver and a second wireless transceiver. Each of the at least two wireless communication channels can operate at a different radio carrier frequency, and the first wireless transceiver may be part of a first vehicle. The method can also include transmitting, by the first wireless transceiver, common information in parallel on the at least two wireless communication channels to the second wireless transceiver and deactivating the at least two wireless communication channels.

  • Patent number: 11406290
    Abstract: Systems and methods for monitoring a range of motion of a joint are described. For example, in one embodiment, a first set of sensors may sense accelerations of a first body portion located on a first side of the joint and a second set of sensors may sense accelerations of the second body portion located on a second opposing side of the joint. The acceleration data may then be used to compute the relative motion of the first and second body portions to determine movement of the joint. This joint movement may then be used to determine one or more range of motion movement metrics which are output for viewing by a subject or medical practitioner.

  • Patent number: 10845963
    Abstract: A system for authoring interactive applications has a user interface that allows a designer to set conditions of a range of types. The conditions may be predefined and selected using a drop-down list for example. The designer can select resources that are activated when the conditions are satisfied. A script records the conditions and the resources. The script may be made up of frames. A frame may have a pre-condition, a selector node and a link identifying a resource. The selector node may include selectors which modify attributes of the resource when selector conditions are satisfied. Selectors may be used to make an interactive application change dynamically in response to any of a wide range of factors. A playback application may be used to deliver the interactive application. The playback system may include a plurality of condition monitors each configured to evaluate conditions of a particular type.

  • Patent number: 8448733
    Abstract: An automobile air intake system is provided that channels air from outside the automobile engine compartment to the engine. The automobile air intake system according to an embodiment of the invention includes an intake enclosure coupled to a bulkhead across the front of the engine compartment. The automobile grille, radiator, and a front portion of the hood in front of the bulkhead form a flow channel to an intake port of the intake enclosure. Aspects of the invention include a screen extending from the bulkhead to the grille for inhibiting the flow of water and particles through the flow channel. Other aspects provide an alternative air path for channeling air from the engine compartment to the intake enclosure.

  • Patent number: 7234555
    Abstract: An automobile air intake system is provided that channels air from inside the automobile engine compartment to an air intake enclosure leading to the engine. Air inside the engine compartment is channeled via a passageway in the hood to an air intake enclosure leading to the engine. The intake path through the hood may be an alternate path for providing air to the engine when a primary path is at least partially obstructed. According to an embodiment of the invention, the automobile air intake system includes an intake enclosure and a hood having a passageway formed between the hood skin and the hood frame for channeling air from the within the engine compartment to the intake enclosure.
