  • Patent number: 12002005
    Abstract: A delivery assist apparatus includes: a receiver configured to receive power data of at least one facility included in two or more predetermined facilities located in a predetermined area; and a controller configured to determine a procedure of delivering goods to the two or more predetermined facilities, based on the power data. At first timing, the controller executes a first procedure of determining a target area out of two or more delivery areas included in the predetermined area, based on the power data satisfying a first condition based on the first timing. At second timing after the first timing, the controller executes a second procedure of determining a delivery schedule of the goods for two or more target facilities located in the target area, based on the power data satisfying a second condition based on the second timing.

  • Patent number: 11536773
    Abstract: An electronic device includes an ADC, a multiplexer, a voltage reference circuit, an analog circuit, and a digital circuit. The ADC has a signal input, a reference input, and an output. The multiplexer has signal inputs and a signal output coupled to the signal input of the ADC. The voltage reference circuit has an output coupled to the reference input of the ADC, a first strain sensor coupled to a first signal input of the multiplexer, a second strain sensor coupled to a second signal input of the multiplexer, and a temperature sensor. The analog circuit has an input coupled to a battery, and an output coupled to a fourth signal input of the multiplexer. The digital circuit is coupled to the output of the ADC and stores correction parameters for correcting a converted battery voltage value from the ADC.

  • Patent number: 11353512
    Abstract: As one example, a filter apparatus includes an input to receive an electrical input signal. The filter apparatus includes a forward path connected between the input and an output of the filter apparatus. A feedback path is connected to provide feedback to the forward path based on an output signal at the output of the filter apparatus. A filter bypass is configured to provide the input signal directly to the output and to the feedback path for an activation phase of the filter apparatus. Diagnostics may also be performed.
