  • Publication number: 20230196911
    Abstract: In at least one embodiment, a road alert system is provided. The system includes a loudspeaker array and at least one controller. The loudspeaker array transmits an audio output signal to a vehicle traveling on a road. The at least one controller is programmed to receive a message indicative of a warning for the vehicle for transmission on the audio output signal and to apply equalization parameters to the message to increase in-vehicle speech intelligibility of the audio output signal within the vehicle. The at least one controller is further programmed to transmit the audio output signal via the loudspeaker array in a beamforming mode to minimize noise pollution for objects positioned along the road.

  • Patent number: 11525723
    Abstract: Techniques for measuring fluid properties include circulating a mixed-phase fluid flow through a fluid flow circuit; circulating the mixed-phase fluid flow through a pre-polarizing magnet; polarizing at least a gas phase of the mixed-phase fluid flow to an initial polarization; measuring fluid induction decay (FID) values of the polarized gas phase with the EFNMR detector; determining a velocity of the gas phase based on the FID values of the polarized gas phase; producing a pulsed magnetic field gradient to suppress one or more signals acquired by the EFNMR detector with a first electromagnet; measuring FID values of the liquid phase of the mixed-phase fluid with the EFNMR detector simultaneously with the production of the pulsed magnetic field gradient; producing a homogeneous polarizing field to polarize the liquid phase of the mixed-phase fluid with a second electromagnet; and determining a velocity and content of the liquid phase based on the FID values of the polarized liquid phase.

  • Patent number: 11428557
    Abstract: Techniques for measuring liquid properties include circulating a mixed oil-water liquid flow through a fluid flow circuit; polarizing the mixed oil-water liquid flow with a pre-polarizing magnet to an initial polarization; circulating the polarized mixed oil-water liquid flow to an EFNMR detector that includes a radio-frequency (RF) coil and a surrounding electromagnet; further polarizing the polarized mixed oil-water liquid flow with the surrounding electromagnet; measuring fluid induction decay (FID) values of the additionally polarized mixed oil-water liquid flow with the EFNMR detector; transforming the measured FID values to an effective adiabatic transition from the Earth's field to the polarizing field; determining a velocity of the oil in the mixed oil-water liquid flow and a velocity of the water in the mixed oil-water liquid flow based on differences in NMR signal relaxation properties of the transformed FID values; and determining an oil content and a water content of the mixed oil-water liquid flo

  • Publication number: 20210233341
    Abstract: The invention is directed, in part, to a system or method for validating identification cards of a person using the card to establish their identity or age so as to be allowed to enter a facility, purchase a product; or participate in a service. In an example, the validation relates to whether a person can purchase or consume alcohol, the system comprising: scanning the identification card, review of information on the identification card; evaluating the age on the identification card; wherein the age on the identification card is used to establish whether a person with the identity card is eligible to purchase and consume alcohol.
