  • Patent number: 11970904
    Abstract: A flexible curtain defines a major surface and is configured to repeatedly actuate to move between a deployed configuration and a stowed configuration. Two sensors are configured to detect different condition and are removably attached to two sensor attachment locations. The major surface extends across an operational surface of a target system such that the sensors detect the conditions of the target system when the flexible curtain defines the deployed configuration. The flexible curtain and the sensors converge at a predetermined edge of the flexible curtain to expose the operational surface of the target system when the flexible curtain defines the stowed configuration.

  • Patent number: 11419247
    Abstract: An approach for controlling a working condition of electronic devices via controlling a climate parameter. The approach comprises measuring a climate parameter distribution; feeding the climate parameter distribution to a climate control system; obtaining operational data from each of the electronic devices; feeding the operational data into the climate control system to determine control actions; obtaining activity data about external activities; providing a machine learning algorithm trained with past activity data; feeding new activity data to the machine learning algorithm; feeding the prediction output to the climate control system; generating a current climate map; generating a target climate map; and generating a rearrangement plan with rearrangement steps for the electronic devices.
