Abstract: Systems and methods for material processing using wafer scale waves of precisely controlled electrons in a DC plasma is presented. The anode and cathode of a DC plasma chamber are respectively connected to an adjustable DC voltage source and a DC current source. The anode potential is adjusted to shift a surface floating potential of a stage in a positive column of the DC plasma to a reference ground potential of the DC voltage/current sources. A conductive plate in a same region of the positive column opposite the stage is used to measure the surface floating potential of the stage. A signal generator referenced to the ground potential is capacitively coupled to the stage to control a surface potential at the stage for provision of kinetic energy to free electrons in the DC plasma.

Abstract: A system for maintaining individual immunization records. The system includes a tracking vehicle storing a first instance of a user record a terminal including an electronic processor and a memory. The electronic processor is configured to communicate with the tracking vehicle, obtain a second instance of the user record stored in the memory of the terminal and determine whether immunization data in the first instance or the second instance is more recent. When the first instance of the user record from the tracking vehicle includes more recent immunization data than the second instance of the user record stored in the memory, the electronic processor is configured to update the user record stored in the memory of the terminal with the more recent immunization data in the first instance of the user record of the tracking vehicle.

Abstract: Various implementations of a horn system include one or more force sensors disposed on a first portion of a driver air bag module and one or more actuators disposed on a second portion of the driver air bag module. For example, the force sensors may be disposed adjacent a perimeter of a base plate of the driver air bag module, and the actuators may extend inwardly toward the force sensors from an inner surface of a cover of the driver air bag module, or vice versa. To actuate the horn, the cover is moved axially toward the base plate, causing the actuators to apply force to the force sensors. Force signals received from the force sensors are used by one or more processors to determine characteristics of the force received and/or select a control message for communicating to the horn system based on the force signal characteristics.
