The present disclosure generally relates to systems and methods utilizing regenerative agriculture for the procurement, production, refinement and/or transformation of low carbon intensity transportation fuels, including low carbon intensity biodiesel and/or renewable diesel, low carbon intensity biogasoline, low carbon intensity aviation, marine and kerosene fuels as well as fuel oil blends, low carbon intensity ethanol, and low carbon intensity hydrogen, that may be beneficially commercialized directly to consumers. In further aspects, the systems and methods of the present disclosure advantageously generate low carbon intensity comestibles, including sustainably-sourced meal and/or feed. The disclosed systems and methods may be utilized and optimized such that the resulting fuels and foodstuffs are characterized by a reduction in greenhouse gas production and a diminution in the fertilizer, pesticide and water required for producing the associated crop feedstocks.

A method for determining motion profile data for a transport system is provided. The method comprises: determining first motion profile data based on a machine learning method, wherein the first motion profile data comprises information on a first segment of transport; and determining second motion profile data based on a movement of a further transport system, wherein the second motion profile data comprises information on a second segment of transport.

A control device capable of efficiently heating an object by a heating device is disclosed. The control system includes a receipt signal obtainer configured to obtain a receipt signal indicating that a transfer device has received an object, a device selector configured to select an available heating device as a selected heating device from among the plurality of heating devices in a case where the receipt signal obtainer has obtained the receipt signal, a movement instructor configured to instruct the transfer device to move to a position of the selected heating device, a standby signal obtainer configured to obtain a standby signal indicating that the transfer device stands by in the position of the selected heating device, and a loading instructor configured to instruct, in a case where the standby signal obtainer has obtained the standby signal, the selected heating device to open a door and instruct the transfer device to load the object into the selected heating device.

An automated shuttle sorter is disclosed that includes a carriage that is movable from a load position at which the carriage may be loaded, and at least two destination locations into which any contents of the carriage may be provided from the carriage.

Systems and methods to provide low carbon intensity (CI) hydrogen through one or more targeted reductions of carbon emissions based upon an analysis of carbon emissions associated with a combination of various options for feedstock procurement, feedstock refining, processing, or transformation, and hydrogen distribution pathways to end users. Such options are selected to maintain the total CI (carbon emissions per unit energy) of the hydrogen below a pre-selected threshold that defines an upper limit of CI for the hydrogen.

A wafer processing device includes a processing assembly, a wafer boat loading and unloading chamber, a wafer boat base located in the wafer boat loading and unloading chamber, a wafer loading and unloading chamber, a wafer transfer assembly located within the wafer loading and unloading chamber, a plurality of isolation chambers, a plurality of wafer boats, and a transfer device, and a front switching door is provided between the isolation chamber and the wafer boat loading and unloading chamber, and a rear switching door is provided between the isolation chamber and the wafer boat loading and unloading chamber. The transfer device is used to transfer the wafers in the interiors of the wafer loading and unloading chamber and the isolation chamber, and transfer the wafers in the interior of the wafer boat loading and unloading chamber and the isolation chamber.

Systems and methods for profiling a pallet in a warehouse can include a turntable that rotates the pallet, conveyor belts that move the pallet, and a vertical profiling structure, having cameras mounted at different locations, in a stationary position proximate to a side of the turntable. A photo booth can also be used to provide uniform lighting. A computing system can instruct a conveyor belt to automatically route the pallet onto the turntable, instruct the cameras to capture image data of the pallet as it rotates on the turntable, receive the image data, and retrieve image-based models of the pallet that were trained using images of pallets having unique identifiers. The computing system can determine, based on applying the image-based models to the image data, whether the pallet's unique identifier is identifiable, and transmit, to a warehouse management system, a notification indicating whether the unique identifier is identifiable.

A cargo-loading system and a cargo loading method for the at least semi-automated loading of a cargo hold of an aircraft with Unit Load Devices (ULDs). Drive elements of cargo handling power drive units are here controlled depending on coverage signals from sensors detecting coverage of the cargo handling power drive unit. A missing or lost coverage signal of a first cargo handling power drive unit is compensated by a control logic by requesting a coverage signal of at least one adjacent cargo handling power drive unit which should be covered by a standardized ULD together with the first cargo handling unit and, if such a coverage signal of an adjacent sensor is present, the coverage status of the first cargo handling power drive unit is set to covered.

Apparatuses and methods for operating at least two tools in a first and at least a second processing area, wherein in each processing area a number of machining locations is assigned to the tool by which first components carried by a component web are conveyed along a track through the first and the at least second processing area, wherein the total number of tools in the apparatus is less than the number of machining locations in each processing area, wherein the track comprises a number of partial paths corresponding to the number of machining locations, wherein the tool of each processing area is adapted such as to couple respective second components to respective first components at each associated machining location in its processing area, and wherein the apparatus comprises a control unit adapted to operate in response to a conveying movement of the component web along the track.

A control apparatus is communicably connected to a vehicle and a user terminal, the control apparatus including a controller configured to: in response to a service request from the user terminal, determine at least a service content, a provision time, and a provision location; identify a vehicle capable of performing the service content; cause the vehicle to perform the service content inside the vehicle by the provision time; and cause the vehicle to move to the provision location by the provision time.
