  • Publication number: 20230385478
    Abstract: For service to a fire safety system, all or part of the fire safety system is simulated. This virtual representation may be used with an installed panel or firmware for an actual panel to be installed. The simulation allows for the design, testing, troubleshooting, training, or other activities for design, installation, or remediation of the first safety system. Delays, complexity, and/or difficulty may be reduced using the virtual representation of at least part of the fire safety system.

  • Publication number: 20140277993
    Abstract: An automatic motor vehicle lift control system responds to a motor vehicle wheelie event when a motor vehicle front lifts off from an operating surface. It functions to reduce power output from an engine of a vehicle in wheelie to prevent an accident. This automatic motor vehicle lift control system includes a number of functional components including sensor, central processing unit (cpu), control actuator and user interface. The sensor may be mounted on an external location of a vehicle. It functions to gather information of a physical state of a motor vehicle and then send it to the cpu for processing. The cpu receives input from the sensor and the user interface, as well as conduct processing and determination. The control actuator received order from the cpu and then act on the vehicle to avoid a wheelie accident.
