System and method for server based control
A system and method in a building or vehicle for an actuator operation in response to a sensor according to a control logic, the system comprising a router or a gateway communicating with a device associated with the sensor and a device associated with the actuator over in-building or in-vehicle networks, and an external Internet-connected control server associated with the control logic implementing a PID closed linear control loop and communicating with the router over external network for controlling the in-building or in-vehicle phenomenon. The sensor may be a microphone or a camera, and the system may include voice or image processing as part of the control logic. A redundancy is used by using multiple sensors or actuators, or by using multiple data paths over the building or vehicle internal or external communication. The networks may be wired or wireless, and may be BAN, PAN, LAN, WAN, or home networks.
Systems and Methods for a Connected Sump Pump
Systems and methods for monitoring operation of a sump pump are provided. A method includes connecting a power adapter to the sump pump and a float-switch. The power adapter includes a controller positioned within a housing, prongs in communication with components coupled to the controller, a first receptacle and a second receptacle. The controller is configured to establish a wireless connection to a first wireless network, and transmit a message to a remote server over the first wireless network. The controller is further configured to determine a power status of a float switch and control the pump based on power status of the float switch.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GENERATING A MULTI-LAYER MATERIAL PROPERTY MAP
A system and method include receiving sensor data from a of at least a portion of a work surface of a worksite including a first one or more material properties, a first timestamp, a first location, and the like, determining a multi-layer map based at least in part from this data and including new layer commands, meeting or exceeding data thresholds, new machine operations, machine learning models, and receiving additional sensor data containing a second same, similar, and/or different information, generating a new layer and/or overwriting the existing layer data, and providing a processed map to one or more machines, memory, additional devices, and the like. The method also includes saving prior layers and/or data of overwritten layers. The method further includes causing at least a part of the multi-layer material property map to be displayed. The displayed at least part of the multi-material property map including visual indicia indicating the first one or more material properties, the first timestamp, the first location, a first layer, etc. and one or more of a subsequent timestamp, the first location, a subsequent layer, and the like.
