Abstract:
Disclosed herein are various devices, systems, and methods for use in agricultural, particularly for use in harvesting agricultural crop such as corn. Various implementations relate to methods and devices for measuring plant stalk cross-sectional area during harvest and providing additional methods of predicting and displaying yield on a row-by-row level in real time.
Abstract:
Traffic control systems implement methods for detecting various malfunctions including faulty sensors and sensor connections that may result in false green requests, undetected green requests, and faults with the visual displays of a traffic control device (TCD). The sensors may include inductive loops and pedestrian pushbuttons. A TCD may communicate with remote resources to help identify faults. The remote resources may include computer systems, which may be configured to interact with human resources such as crowdsourced resources. A TCD's communications with the remote resources may go through vehicle computers and smart phones of vehicles' occupants and pedestrians. A TCD may emit signals to enable vehicle computers to improve accuracy of position location. A TCD may emit its state and time-to-state-change information, in real or substantially real time. A vehicle computer may receive the state and/or time to state changes and in response vary operation of the vehicle's power train.
Abstract:
An evacuation guidance system is configured from multiple sensor modules, network lines, guidance indicators, and a guidance control device. Each sensor module includes multiple input/output port pairs, fire detection sensors, and a data control unit. The multiple input/output port pairs are connected to input/output port pairs of other sensor modules by means of network lines, thereby configuring a mesh-like autonomous network. The data control unit generates and outputs fire data after adding fire location data; upon receiving fire data, outputs the fire data after adding its own route flag; and stops the output of fire data when the fire data contains its own route flag. Upon identifying the location of the fire outbreak from the fire data, the guidance control device calculates optimum evacuation routes and causes the guidance indicators to turn on/off or flash.
Abstract:
A computer-implemented method, system, and computer-readable medium for automatically generating a combined display of measurement data representing a combined measurement, such as a multiphase parameter, includes establishing, by a mobile computing device, communication connections with a plurality of measurement devices configured to generate measurement data. The mobile computing device receives the measurement data generated by the plurality of measurement devices, and in response to information indicative of the measurement data representing related parts of a combined measurement, the mobile computing device automatically groups the measurement data received from the measurement devices and automatically displays the grouped measurement data in a combined display that shares at least one axis of measurement. In at least one embodiment, the combined measurement is a multiphase parameter, such as a three-phase electrical parameter, and the combined display is a graph in which the measurement data shares at least one axis of measurement, such as time.
Abstract:
Electronic display systems, including roadside display devices, vehicle-based devices, personal mobile devices, intermediary servers, advertising servers and/or networks, and/or additional external data sources may operate individually or in combination to identify one or more vehicle locations, driving routes, driver and passenger characteristics, driving behavior and patterns, telematics data, and the like. Vehicle and individual characteristics and/or telematics data may be determined based on data received from traffic cameras, vehicle-based devices, personal mobile devices, telematics devices, and/or other data sources, including software applications. Based on the vehicle characteristics, individual characteristics, driving data and driving patterns, telematics data, and the like, content, such as digital display content or audio content, may be determined for output on various devices, such as electronic roadside displays to be viewable by the approaching vehicles, and/or other devices to be accessible by associated individuals via the other devices. Various techniques may be used to determine customized content. Additionally, certain systems may be interactive to allow user responses and follow-up content via on-board vehicle devices or other user devices.
Abstract:
A low product indicator comprising an upright portion capable of being attached to a pusher or paddle on a conventional merchandiser and having indicia relating to at least one of: a store the conventional merchandiser is displayed in; a product the merchandiser is intended to be stocked with; a product category encompassing the general type of product the merchandiser is intended to be stocked with; and/or advertising. In one form, a product display merchandiser is disclosed comprising a tray, a spring biased pusher slidable within the tray, and a visual indicator comprising at least one light activated by a switch, the switch configured to be actuated when the pusher is within a predetermined portion of the tray.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a status displaying device and method thereof for a Solid-State Drive (SSD). The status displaying device may include a non-volatile memory, an emitting unit, a firmware, and a first control unit. A first instruction is generated and transmitted by the firmware. The first instruction is received by the first control unit. The first control unit performs a first operation on the non-volatile memory and controls the emitting unit to have a first emitting behavior according to the first instruction.
Abstract:
Described herein is a system for a mobile platform includes a storage compartment that defines an interior space. The storage compartment forms part of the mobile platform. Further, the storage compartment is operable to physically separate the interior space from an exterior space. The system also includes a visual indicator that provides to the exterior space a visual indication of a storage capacity status of the interior space of the storage compartment.
Abstract:
A human machine interface includes a display screen coupled to a processing device. The display screen is disposed on a case and displays an image frame. In the processing unit, a comparing module compares a first trigger signal stored in a storage unit with a monitored signal transmitted from a signal source. A notification signal is generated when the first trigger signal is detected appearing in the monitored signal. A control module receives the notification signal and generates a first alert signal to display in the image frame or on the case.
Abstract:
Communication devices are disclosed. In an example embodiment, a communication device may include a communication module including an illumination source and a body element. The body element may be configured to allow illumination generated by the illumination source to propagate within and illuminate at least a portion of an outer surface of the body element.
