Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods comprising acoustically absorptive air ducts comprising an internally positioned structure component as an endoskeleton and an air impervious inner layer, and an acoustically absorptive foam outer layer, environmental control systems comprising such air ducts, and vehicles incorporating such environmental control systems are disclosed with methods for manufacture and installations are disclosed.

Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, an apparatus comprising a pump configured to deliver a fluid, a wireless communication port, a controller, and a housing to enclose the apparatus. The controller is configured to communicate with a second device via the communication port using an open standard wireless communication protocol. The housing includes a mechanical coupling to slidably engage the second device which includes a second wireless communication port. Slidably engaging the second device positions the first and second communication ports opposite each other to allow communication via the first and second communication ports when slidably engaged.

Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, an apparatus comprising a pump configured to deliver a fluid, a wireless communication port and a controller. The controller is configured to communicate with a separate device via the communication port to receive information relating to a calendar event stored on an interactive calendar of the separate device. The controller can alter operation of the apparatus based on the calendar event.

Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, an apparatus comprising a pump configured to deliver a fluid from a cartridge, a display a temperature sensor and a controller. The controller is configured to compare a temperature within the cartridge as measured by the temperature sensor to a threshold temperature and cause the display to display a message relating to temperature when the measured temperature goes beyond the threshold temperature.

Abstract: An infusion pump system includes at least one reservoir having a reservoir volume, and an infusion pump including a pumping mechanism operably coupled to the at least one reservoir, a processor including a memory and configured to control operation of the pumping mechanism, and a calculation module configured to determine at least one characteristic about the at least one reservoir.
