Communication enabled circuit breakers are described. Methods associated with such communication enabled circuit breakers are also described. The communication enabled circuit breakers may include one or more current sensors. The one or more current sensors may be disposed in a clip. The clip may be coupled to a line side phase connection, and the clip may be shielded to attenuate signals.
USING IN-HOME LOCATION AWARENESS
Techniques for suggesting accessory devices controlled by an application executing on a mobile device are disclosed. A method includes measuring one or more sensor values using one or more sensors of a mobile device and the one or more sensor values are determined from one or more signals emitted by a first one or more accessory devices. An area of a physical space for the first one or more accessory devices can be determined based on the one or more sensor values. A second one or more accessory devices associated with the same area as the first one or more accessory devices can be suggested to a user.
ULTRASONIC COMMUNICATION IN MEDICAL DEVICES
The present disclosure provides implants, sensor modules, networks, and methods configured to establish transcutaneous power and transcutaneous bidirectional data communication using ultrasound signals between two or more medical devices located on and within a body of a patient.
SITU MEASUREMENT STATION FOR MONITORING WIND AND WATER PROPERTIES IN EXTREME HYDRODYNAMIC CONDITIONS
The present disclosure describes various embodiments of systems, apparatuses, and methods for large-scale processing of weather-related data. For one such system, the system comprises a database of weather-related data providing from at least one weather monitoring station and at least one processor for coordinating a data processing job for processing a set of input weather-related data from the database. Accordingly, the input data comprises sensor data from the at least one weather monitoring station positioned on an open shoreline during a hydrodynamic event, weather model data for the hydrodynamic event, and at least one of air-craft reconnaissance data or satellite reconnaissance data regarding the hydrodynamic event, wherein the at least one processor is configured to assimilate the input data and generate, using machine learning, an improved weather prediction model for the hydrodynamic event. Other systems, apparatuses, and methods are also provided.
Indoor Fire Monitoring Based on Look-Up-From-Floor Sensing of Ceiling
In an indoor environment on fire, automatic deployment of sensors disposed on, beneath or over the floor to look upward the ceiling to observe a body of smoke and flame risen near the ceiling allows important information regarding states and dynamics of the body of smoke and flame to be gathered at an early stage of fire (e.g. before arrival of firefighters). By distributing the sensors over the indoor environment, the states and dynamics of the body of smoke and flame are monitored holistically (i.e. as a whole) even at the early stage of fire. Such information is useful to predict development of the fire. In one implementation, a sensor is held in an infrastructure sensor holder mounted on the ceiling during normal time. Upon detecting occurrence of fire, the sensor drops from the holder to land on the floor and orients a sensing direction vertically upward to perform monitoring.
POWER-RECEIVING-MODULE-TYPE TELEMETER TRANSMITTER, TELEMETER MEASURING SYSTEM, ROTARY MACHINE, AND TELEMETER TRANSMISSION METHOD
A power-receiving-module-type telemeter transmitter of a telemeter measuring system that is provided in a rotor and that performs communication using power received from a power transmitting antenna formed in an arc shape on a stator side, includes: a plurality of power receiving modules disposed in the rotor at intervals in a circumferential direction; an OR circuit that outputs a highest voltage among voltages input from the plurality of power receiving modules; a sensor that measures a state of a monitoring target and that outputs measurement data indicating the state; and a transmitting unit that is driven by the voltage input from the OR circuit as a power source and that transmits a radio signal including the measurement data of the sensor.
System and method for transmitting electronic plumbing fixture data and health data to a user device for transmission over a network
An EPF digital record transmission system may be configured to transmit an EPF digital record from an EPF device to a user device. The user device may then transmit the EPF digital record to a host server for storage and processing. The EPF device may also be configured to transmit health data and the user device may be configured to analyze one or both of the health data and the EPF digital record and present a health recommendation.
Transmission of data from a management entity to a smart electricity meter
A method for transmitting data from a management entity in a communication system further comprising at least one data concentrator device to which smart electricity meters are attached via a first powerline communication network, each data concentrator device being connected to the management entity via a second communication network. Said smart electricity meter receives, coming from the management entity, via the first powerline communication network, a message indicating that a transfer of data is pending with the management entity. Said smart electricity meter comprising a wireless communication interface adapted to communicate via a third wireless local communication network with a residential gateway connected to the management entity via a fourth communication network, said smart electricity meter obtains said data from the management entity via the third wireless local communication network.
