A quality management system for products including a multiplicity of barcoded quality indicators, a barcode indicator reader and a product type responsive indication interpreter, each of the barcoded quality indicators including a first barcode including at least one first colorable area, the first barcode being machine-readable before exceedance of the at least one time and temperature threshold, at least a second barcode including at least one second colorable area, the second barcode not being machine-readable before exceedance of the at least one time and temperature threshold, a coloring agent located at a first location on the indicator and a coloring agent pathway operative to allow the coloring agent to move, from the first location to the first and second colorable areas simultaneously thereby causing the first barcode to become unreadable and at the same time causing the second barcode to become machine-readable.

The present disclosure generally relates to user interfaces and techniques for monitoring noise exposure levels using an electronic device. In accordance with some embodiments, the electronic device displays a graphical indication of a noise exposure level over a first period of time with an area of the graphical indication that is colored to represent the noise exposure level, the color of the area transitioning from a first color to a second color when the noise exposure level exceeds a first threshold. In accordance with some embodiments, the electronic device displays noise exposure levels attributable to a first output device type and a second output device type and, in response to selecting a filtering affordance, visually distinguishes a set of noise exposure levels attributable to the second output device type.

A vehicular exterior mirror assembly includes a turn signal unit disposed at a mirror casing of the exterior mirror assembly. The turn signal unit includes a housing portion, at least one light source and a lens. With the exterior mirror assembly disposed at a side of an equipped vehicle, light emitted by the at least one light source, when the at least one light source is electrically powered, passes through the lens in the direction of forward travel of the equipped vehicle. With the exterior mirror assembly disposed at the side of the equipped vehicle, the turn signal unit (i) responsive to a charge level signal indicative of a vehicle charge level of a power source of the equipped vehicle, emits light to indicate the vehicle charge level, and (ii) responsive to actuation of a turn signal indicator of the equipped vehicle, emits light to provide a turn signal indication.

Field device of automation technology, comprising: a housing; arranged in or on the housing a first light emitting means, which serves as visual status display and which is arranged in such a manner that it is visible externally of the housing; arranged in the housing a second light emitting means, which is adapted to activate the first light emitting means such that the first light emitting means emits light; located in the housing a field device electronics, which is adapted to activate the second light emitting means via a signal with a predetermined frequency such that the second light emitting means emits light, such that the second light emitting means activates the first light emitting means such that the first light emitting means emits light.

A quality management system for products including a multiplicity of barcoded quality indicators each operative to provide a machine-readable indication of exceedance of at least one threshold by at least one product quality affecting parameter, a barcode indicator reader operative to read the barcoded quality indicators and to provide output indications, the barcoded quality indicators being readable by the barcode indicator reader at all times after first becoming readable, including times prior to, during and immediately following exceedance of the at least one threshold by the at least one product quality affecting parameter, and a product type responsive indication interpreter operative to receive the output indications and to provide human sensible, product quality status outputs.

A barcoded indicator operative to provide a machine-readable indication of exceedance of at least one threshold by at least one product quality affecting parameter, the barcoded indicator including at least a first barcode and at least a second barcode, the at least a second barcode being in a second barcode unreadable state prior to exceedance of the at least one threshold and upon exceedance of the at least one threshold the at least a first barcode becoming unreadable and generally simultaneously the at least a second barcode becoming readable.

A visually sensible indicator of temperature including electronic temperature sensing circuitry sensing at least when a temperature exceeds at least one predetermined temperature threshold and providing at least one corresponding threshold exceedance output which is sensible as heat and a heat-responsive visually sensible display which is responsive to the at least one threshold exceedance output for providing at least one visually sensible indication indicating that the temperature has exceeded the predetermined temperature threshold.

A tamper-proof barcoded quality indicator operative to provide a machine-readable indication of exceedance of time and temperature thresholds following actuation thereof, including a first barcode including a first colorable area and being machine-readable before exceedance of the time and temperature thresholds, a second barcode including a second colorable area and not being machine-readable before exceedance of the time and temperature thresholds, a coloring agent located at a first location on the indicator, a coloring agent pathway operative to allow the coloring agent to move, at a rate which is at least partially a function of time, from the first location to the first and second colorable areas simultaneously for simultaneous coloring thereof upon exceedance of the time and temperature thresholds, thereby causing the first barcode to become unreadable and at the same time causing the second barcode to become machine-readable, and a tamper-proof actuator element operative to actuate the indicator.

A method and system of a predictive maintenance IoT system comprises receiving a plurality of sensor data over a communications network and determining one or more clusters from the sensor data based on a pre-determined rule set. Further, the sensor data is classified through a machine learning engine and the sensor data is further base-lined through a combination of database architecture, data training architecture, and a base-lining algorithm. Intensity or degree of fault state is mapped to a fuel gauge to be depicted on a user interface and a predictive maintenance state is predicted through a regression model and appropriate alarm is raised for user action.

A sensor unit for a fingerboard latch assembly comprising a latch bracket and a latch rotatably mounted on the latch bracket comprises a sensor arranged to sense the orientation of the latch and a wireless, optical or other communication unit arranged to communicate the orientation of the latch sensed by the sensor. The sensor unit may be mountable on the latch and comprise an orientation sensor arranged to take measurements that are dependent on the orientation of the sensor unit, and a processor arranged to derive an orientation signal representing the orientation of the latch from the measurements, the communication unit being arranged to communicate the orientation signal. A monitoring system receives the sensed orientations from plural sensor units.
