Wireless sensing units, systems, methods, and media
Wireless sensing units, methods, systems, and processor-readable media for obtaining pressure data relating to one or more pressure locations of a surface area are described. A wireless sensing system includes a pressure monitoring device communicating with modular wireless smart floor tiles using RFID, either using an RFID reader or wireless network interface (e.g., 802.11). The tiles incorporate passive or active RFID tags. The tiles can be powered wirelessly, e.g. by a built-in piezoelectric power unit or by a wireless power source using magnetic resonance. A data capture circuit in each tile collects and saves the data for transmission to the floor pressure monitoring device. Various software applications can be enabled by the smart floor system, including fall detection and prediction, gesture input, intrusion detection, and user location tracking for smart home automation.
Low-gloss cured product having excellent stain resistance, and manufacturing method therefor
The present invention relates to a cured product having excellent stain resistance and low gloss, a method of manufacturing the same, and an interior material including the cured product. The cured product according to the present invention is formed by sequentially applying light in different specific wavelength ranges to a composition to cure the composition, thereby being capable of realizing a low gloss of 9 or less, based on a 60 degree gloss meter, without use of a matting agent and excellent stain resistance and exhibiting excellent abrasion resistance. Accordingly, the cured product may be usefully used as an interior material such as a flooring material.

Method for the production of panels from a board, press plate, method for the production of a board and board
Disclosed is a method for producing panels from a board which includes dissecting the board along predefined lines. The board includes a core material board and is laminated with a laminate material layer. The board is dissected along an impressed region running linear over the complete surface of the laminate material layer. Also disclosed are a press plate, a method for the production of a board having an impressed region, and a board for producing the panels.
Method and system for identifying external conflicts with a floor joist assembly
A computer program product comprising: accessing a model of a building, wherein the model is comprised of a plurality of assemblies, wherein the assemblies are comprised of a plurality of members; detecting the assemblies which are identified as floor joists, wherein the floor joist is identified by the specific members and member internal interfaces and the member properties; analyzing the floor joists to determine if a floor joist has an external interface with another floor joist; isolating the floor joists and the plurality of members; and analyzing each of the members of the floor joists which have external interfaces with other members, wherein the interface is analyzed to determine if the interface is conflicting, wherein a conflicting interface is one where the actual values of the members are inconsistent with a required value.
Barrier Devices and Related Methods
A barrier device includes a horizontal portion formed of a polymer, the horizontal portion having a largest substantially planar surface and a thickness perpendicular to its largest substantially planar surface. The barrier device includes a vertical portion formed of a polymer and coupled with the horizontal portion, the vertical portion forming a substantially ninety-degree angle relative to the horizontal portion, the vertical portion having a largest substantially planar surface and a thickness perpendicular to its largest substantially planar surface. In implementations the thickness of the vertical portion is substantially equal to the thickness of the horizontal portion. A width of the horizontal portion, perpendicular to the vertical portion, is shorter than a height of the vertical portion perpendicular to the horizontal portion—in some cases no more than one third or one fifth its size. In implementations the barrier device may be used to protect an installed baseboard.
Low-Density PVC Plastics Flooring and Preparation Method Thereof
The disclosure provides a low-density PVC plastics flooring and a preparation method thereof, which belongs to the technical field of films for floor. The disclosure provides a low-density PVC plastics flooring, which is prepared from components including, in parts by mass, 100 parts of PVC, 300-380 parts of calcium carbonate, 7-12 parts of a stabilizer, 2-8 parts of processing aid ACR, 12-16 parts of a foaming regulator, 0.1-0.5 parts of a foaming agent, 2-4 parts of G60 lubricant, and 2-4 parts of PE wax. In the disclosure, the density of the PVC plastics flooring is reduced to 1.4-1.6 g/cm.sup.3 even increasing the amount of calcium carbon, thereby greatly reducing the production cost and improving the economic efficiency.
