Vaporizer device body
Features relating to a vaporizer body are provided. The vaporizer body may include an outer shell that includes an inner region defined by an outer shell sidewall. A support structure is configured to fit within the inner region of the outer shell. The support structure includes a storage region defined by a top support structure, a bottom support structure, a bottom cap, and a gasket. An integrated board assembly is configured to fit within the storage region of the support structure. The integrated board assembly may include a printed circuit board assembly formed of multiple layers that form a rigid structure and that include an inner, flexible layer. A first antenna is integrated at a proximal end of the flexible layer, and a second antenna is integrated at a distal end of the flexible layer.
Measurements incorporating brake light detection
Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media may be configured to calibrate sensor measurements based on detection of brake light. Acceleration information of a first vehicle may be obtained. The acceleration information may define an acceleration probability distribution of the first vehicle. Image information may be obtained. The image information may define an image of the first vehicle. Whether a brake light of the first vehicle is on or off may be determined based on the image of the first vehicle. Based on a determination that the brake light of the first vehicle is on, a calibrated acceleration probability distribution of the first vehicle may be generated based on the acceleration probability distribution of the first vehicle and a braking-calibration curve.
Apparatus for diagnosing abnormality in vehicle sensor and method thereof
An apparatus for diagnosing an abnormality of a vehicle sensor is provided. The apparatus includes a sensor configured to measure an acceleration and an angular velocity of a vehicle, a camera configured to generate a front time series image frame of the vehicle, and a controller configured to estimate the acceleration and the angular velocity of the vehicle by using the front time series image frame generated by the camera and diagnose an abnormality in the sensor based on the acceleration and the angular velocity of the vehicle estimated by the controller.
Secure Pairing of Devices Via Pairing Facilitator-Intermediary Device
The present inventions, in one aspect, are directed to systems and circuitry for and/or methods of establishing communication having one or more pairing facilitator-intermediary devices (for example, a network connected server) to enable or facilitate pairing and/or registering at least two devices (e.g., (i) a portable biometric monitoring device and (ii) a smartphone, laptop and/or tablet) to, for example, recognize, interact and/or enable interoperability between such devices. The pairing facilitator-intermediary device may responsively communicates information to one or more of the devices (to be paired or registered) which, in response, enable or facilitate such devices to pair or register. The present inventions may be advantageous where one or both of the devices to be paired or registered is/are not configured (e.g., include a user interface or certain communication circuitry that is configured or includes functionality) to pair devices without use of a facilitator-intermediary device.
Capacitive imaging glove
A capacitive imaging glove includes electrodes implemented throughout the capacitive imaging glove and drive-sense circuits (DSCs) such that a DSC receives a reference signal generates a signal based thereon. The DSC provides the signal to a first electrode via a single line and simultaneously senses it. Note the signal is coupled from the first electrode to the second electrode via a gap therebetween. The DSC generates a digital signal representative of the electrical characteristic of the first electrode. Processing module(s), when enabled, is/are configured to execute operational instructions (e.g., stored in and/or retrieved from memory) to generate the reference signal, process the digital signal to determine the electrical characteristic of the first electrode, and process the electrical characteristic of the first electrode to determine a distance between the first electrode and the second electrode, and generate capacitive image data representative of a shape of the capacitive imaging glove.
SMART MOUNT FOR COUPLING AN ANTENNA ALIGNMENT DEVICE TO AN ANTENNA
An example smart antenna mount may couple an antenna alignment device with an antenna. The smart antenna mount may include sensors such as strain gauges and accelerometers, and an electronic circuitry to communicate the measurements from the sensors. The measurements are received by the antenna alignment device, which may perform further operations to determine whether the coupling is within desired bounds. If within desired bounds, the antenna alignment device may generate an indication of a normal coupling, e.g., by activating a first colored (e.g., green) LED. If the coupling is outside the desired bounds, the antenna alignment device may indicate an alarm condition, e.g., activating a second colored (e.g., red) LED or generating an audible signal.
