Patent number: 10726387Abstract: Techniques for providing a signal processing feature in an inventory management system are described herein. For example, instructions may be received by a computer system of an autonomous vehicle that identify a path to move inventory within a materials handling facility. Further, the computer system of the autonomous vehicle may reduce a current traveling speed of the autonomous vehicle in response to receiving a first signal that is provided by a transmitter coupled with an entity moving within the materials handling facility. The first signal may be span a first distance. In embodiments, the computer system of the autonomous vehicle may stop movement of the autonomous vehicle in response to receiving a second signal provided by the transmitter coupled with the entity. The second signal may span a second distance from the entity that is less than the first distance.Type: GrantFiled: February 5, 2019Date of Patent: July 28, 2020Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Robert Michael Shydo, Jr., Seth Kaufman, Fahrudin Alagic, Gregory Tierney, Stephen Caldara, Jianfeng Pu, Ashish Shah

Patent number: 9776007Abstract: A model of an implantable lead is provided via a graphical user interface. The implantable lead is configured to deliver electrical stimulation to a patient via a plurality of electrodes located on the implantable lead. The graphical user interface also provides a plurality of predefined electrode activation patterns that include a coarse pattern and a refined pattern. The coarse pattern corresponds to a first group of electrodes located in a first region of the implantable lead. The refined pattern corresponds to a second group of electrodes located in a second region of the implantable lead. The second region is smaller than, and is a subsection of, the first region. A coarse testing process is performed by selectively activating the first group of electrodes belonging to the coarse pattern. Thereafter, a refined testing process is performed by selectively activating the second group of electrodes belonging to the refined pattern.Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 2016Date of Patent: October 3, 2017Assignee: NUVECTRA CORPORATIONInventors: Norbert Kaula, Scott Drees, Yohannes Iyassu, Seth Kaufman
