Abstract: A one-hand engageable vacuum tool connection assembly for connection to a commercial vehicle vacuum system that includes: a vacuum tool connection assembly hose having a first end and a second end; an upper assembly and a lower assembly having a tool connector where the tool connector engages a second end of the lower assembly swivel cuff and is typically adapted to receive one or a plurality of different types of vacuum tools. The vacuum tool engagement assembly is typically free of any flapper valve, metal or spring biased elements.

Abstract: A laser scanner determines the direction and distance of one or more targets by emitting two substantially parallel beams and receiving respective return beams. Components for handling the received beams are affixed to a monolithic block to ensure fixed relative placement. The direction of the target is determined using an optical encoder to reduce the timing window for interpolation to a fraction of the time it takes for the scanner to make a full revolution. A PLL trained by recent segment timing further improves accuracy and precision. A detection algorithm adapts detection thresholds for the different signatures of return signals depending on the distance to the target. Distance calculations are also adjusted for thermal expansion of the scanner components by including a temperature-variant thermometer output signal in the distance calculation algorithm.

Abstract: A wearable vital sign monitor. The wearable vital sign monitor includes a band, where the band secures the wearable vital sign monitor relative to a user. The band includes an interior surface, the interior surface being the surface closest to the skin of the user and an exterior surface, the exterior surface opposite the interior surface. The wearable vital sign monitor also includes a first sensor array. The first sensor array is attached to the band and includes at least two sensors. The wearable vital sign monitor further includes a second sensor array. The second sensor array is attached to the band a fixed distance from the first sensor array and includes at least two sensors. The wearable vital sign monitor additionally includes an electronics module. The electronics module is configured to receive a first signal from the first sensor array, receive a second signal from the second sensor array, and transmit the sensor data to an external device.
