Abstract: An inhaler includes a body portion defining a flow path for the administration of medicament to a patient, and an entrained polymer in the flow path and being secured to or integral with the body portion. The entrained polymer has a monolithic material that includes a base polymer, an active agent (e.g., desiccant and optionally odor adsorber), and optionally a channeling agent. Optionally, the entrained polymer in a 16 gram quantity releases less than 4 parts per million volatile organic compounds after heating at 60° C. for up to 72 hours, optionally zero parts per million.

Abstract: A method for detecting an object in an environment of a machine is provided. The method includes determining a first height of the object by applying sliding window detection process on an image. The method determines a score indicating a probability that the object detected in the image matches a predefined set of characteristics. The method further includes determining a minimum and a maximum vertical pixel associated with the object. The method includes determining a second height of the object based on a range of the object, the minimum vertical pixel, the maximum vertical pixel, intrinsic and extrinsic calibration parameters of the image capturing device. The method includes comparing the first height with the second height and accordingly, modifying the score regarding the detection of the object in the image based on whether a difference between the first height and the second height meets a predetermined criterion.

Abstract: A piezoelectric sensor assembly is for an electrical system. The electrical system includes a sensor attachment assembly and a number of electrical conductors. The sensor attachment assembly includes a sensor housing and a fastening member for fastening the sensor housing to a corresponding one of the electrical conductors. The piezoelectric sensor assembly includes a processor enclosed by the sensor housing, a piezoelectric sensor element, a wiring assembly electrically connecting the piezoelectric sensor element to the processor, an insulating member coupled to the piezoelectric sensor element and being structured to extend outwardly from the sensor housing to engage the corresponding one of the electrical conductors, and a mounting enclosure structured to mount the piezoelectric sensor element and the insulating member to the sensor housing.

Abstract: A sensor attachment assembly for an electrical system includes a sensor housing at least partially enclosing a sensor, and a fastening member coupled to the sensor housing and being structured to extend from one portion of the sensor housing, around a corresponding electrical conductor of the electrical system and attach to another portion of the sensor housing, in order to removably attach the sensor to the electrical conductor.
