  • Patent number: 11969003
    Abstract: The technology disclosed in this specification pertains to a heat-moisture treated fava bean protein concentrates having between 50% and 73% and a denaturation enthalpy from about 5.5 and 6.5 J/g. This is limited degree of denaturation. The disclosed heat-moisture treated fava bean protein concentrates are useful as emulsifiers, and good solubility in water, and reduced flavor.

  • Publication number: 20230264360
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a method for replacing a photoresist (PR) bottle using a vehicle. An exemplary vehicle includes a processor configured to receive a request signal to replace a first PR bottle. The processor is also configured to transmit an order based on the request signal. The vehicle also includes a plurality of wheels configured to move the vehicle from the first location to a second location, and from the second location to the first location. The vehicle further includes a robotic arm configured to load, at the first location, the first PR bottle into a first container; load a second PR bottle in a second container; remove a cap from the second PR bottle and a socket from the first PR bottle; couple the socket of the first PR bottle to the second PR bottle; and unload the second PR bottle from the second container.

  • Patent number: 9788145
    Abstract: In accordance with various aspects of the disclosure, a system, method, and device for detecting motion based on channel fading characteristics are presented. One or more packets may be received wirelessly from a wireless transmitter. A fading profile may be determined for each packet. From the plurality of fading profiles, one or more parameters indicative of fading change, changes in shape of fading profiles, fading variance, and of other channel characteristics may be determined. A classifier function may be trained to associate parameter values with a lack of motion, with device motion, or with motion of an object in the vicinity of a stationary wireless-enabled device. The classifier function may be used to determine whether there is motion based on one or more subsequently received packets.

  • Patent number: 9369982
    Abstract: This disclosure describes systems, methods, and computer-readable media related to employing particle filter methods to estimate the location of a mobile device. The data may include wireless data measurement associated with the mobile device and one or more access points and inertial data associated with the mobile device. Radio fingerprinting data associated with the one or more access points may be retrieved. A respective location for the wireless data measurements may be determined based on the radio fingerprinting data and inertial data. A respective weight may be calculated for the respective location for each of the plurality of particles. A respective confidence level may be maintained for the respective location for each of the plurality of particles. A current location may be identified based on the respective location for each of the plurality of particles and the respective weight associated with the respective location for each of the particles.
