A portable hunting blind system is provided comprising a hunting blind having a plurality of frame members supporting a blind cover. Each of the plurality of frame members may terminate at one or more pivot joints and the blind cover may comprise a plurality of windows each defined by a flap and a coupling seam. The hunting blind may transition between an active state, a transitional state and an inactive state. In the active state, each of the plurality of frame members may be disposed relative one another about the one or more pivot joints at an angle between 15 and 180 degrees. In the inactive state, each of the plurality of frame members may be disposed relative one another about the one or more pivot joints at an angle between 0 and 15 degrees.

A collapsible isolation tent assembly includes a collapsible frame assembly, a flexible skin of impermeable material, and an air exchange arrangement, and further an air pump configured for being connected to the air exchange arrangement to effect a unidirectional air flow through the air exchange arrangement. The air pump has a pump capacity within the range of 85 per minute through 20,000 liters per minute. Openings in the flexible skin or around edges of the collapsible tent allow for an air flow compensating for the unidirectional air flow created by the air pump, and the collapsible isolation tent has a footprint dimensioned to be placed on a support surface for an individual patient, for example a hospital bed. A method for preventing air containing airborne pathogens from contaminating a surrounding space or the interior of the isolation tent involves operating an air pump in fluid communication with the collapsible tent.

A collapsible shelter comprising a rigid-framed box section and a plurality of rigid panel sections, wherein each panel has a complimentary shape and dimension to fit within a neighbouring section such that the structure can be collapsed to form a storage case when all the panel sections fit within the box section.

A shelter for an automobile has a pair of tracks positioned on opposing sides of the automobile and rest on a supporting surface such as the floor of a garage or car-port. A plurality of frames each having a u-shaped contour extend on opposing sides and over the automobile and are spaced apart from it. The terminal ends the frames are engaged with trucks which are in rolling engagement with the tracks. A canopy of a flexible material is attached over the frames and is movable between a folded state and an unfolded state when the trucks are moved within the tracks. The tracks have mutually orthogonal roller contact surfaces and the trucks have mutually orthogonal rollers positioned for rolling on the roller contact surfaces of said tracks. The canopy is able to be withdrawn from either of opposing sides and is further able to be drawn over the automobile to the supporting surface at both opposing sides.

The present application relates to an automotive tent for fastening to a vehicle. The tent includes a base for fastening to the vehicle. A retractable cover is provided for retracting during transport, and expanding from the base to define a sleeping space. Advantageously, the cover may be readily erected by expanding the cover from the base to define the sleeping space. The cover may be collapsible.

Examples herein describe techniques for communicating between data processing engines in an array of data processing engines. In one embodiment, the array is a 2D array where each of the DPEs includes one or more cores. In addition to the cores, the data processing engines can include streaming interconnects which transmit streaming data using two different modes: circuit switching and packet switching. Circuit switching establishes reserved point-to-point communication paths between endpoints in the interconnect which routes data in a deterministic manner. Packet switching, in contrast, transmits streaming data that includes headers for routing data within the interconnect in a non-deterministic manner. In one embodiment, the streaming interconnects can have one or more ports configured to perform circuit switching and one or more ports configured to perform packet switching.
