  • Patent number: 11873654
    Abstract: A fence installation apparatus that is operably coupled to a vehicle wherein the vehicle is traversed along a desired fence line while the fence apparatus is utilized to provide installation of a fence. The fence installation apparatus includes a drive assembly support frame having a rear support member and front support member. The rear support member and the front support member having operably coupled thereto a first drive member and a second drive member. The first drive member and second drive member are configured to drive fence posts into the ground. The fence installation apparatus further includes a first wire dispenser that is rotatably mounted in order to provide distribution of a wire during fence installation. A second wire dispenser is further included to dispense a second wire and further has a pole mount and pole member coupled thereto for distribution of fence accessories.

  • Publication number: 20230229622
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for processing Ethernet packets at a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). One programmable integrated circuit includes: an internal network on chip (iNOC) comprising rows and columns; clusters, coupled to the iNOC, comprising a network access point (NAP) and programmable logic; and an Ethernet controller coupled to the iNOC. When the controller operates in packet mode, each complete inbound Ethernet packet is sent from the controller to one of the NAPs via the iNOC, where two or more NAPs are configurable to receive the complete inbound Ethernet packets from the controller. The controller is configurable to operate in quad segment interface (QSI) mode where each complete inbound Ethernet packet is broken into segments, which are sent from the controller to different NAPs via the iNOC, where two or more NAPs are configurable to receive the complete inbound Ethernet packets from the controller.
