An automated drywalling system network that including one or more automated drywalling systems that each has a robotic arm. The automated drywalling system network can also include a computational planner that generates instructions for the one or more automated drywalling systems to perform two or more drywalling tasks associated with a target wall assembly. The two or more drywalling tasks can include a hanging task that includes hanging pieces of drywall on studs of the target wall assembly; a mudding task that includes applying joint compound to pieces of drywall hung on studs of the target wall assembly; a sanding task that includes sanding joint compound applied to the pieces of drywall hung on studs of the target wall assembly; and a painting task that includes painting sanded the joint compound applied to the pieces of drywall hung on studs of the target wall assembly.

A liquid object detector (160) includes a liquid object dispensing part (500), a sensor (161, 162, 163) configured to detect a liquid object dispensed by the liquid object dispensing part, and a sensor moving part (130, 165) configured to move the sensor in a direction crossing a dispensing direction of the liquid object.

Exemplary embodiments of energy efficient foam pumps and dispensers are disclosed herein. An exemplary foam dispenser included a housing, a reservoir for holding a foamable liquid, a motor, a motor shaft, and a turbine air pump. The turbine air pump is connected to the motor shaft. A cam is also attached to the motor shaft and is used for driving a liquid pump. Liquid from the liquid pump and air from the turbine air pump are mixed in a mixing chamber and dispensed through an outlet nozzle. The touch-free foam dispenser further includes a sensor for sensing an object, circuitry for receiving a signal from the sensor indicative of an object being present and circuitry for energizing the motor to dispense fluid in the form of a foam.

It is a device designed to distinguish plants from agricultural soil (soil background); of the type that a photographic camera uses to proceed with the capture of images and process them in order to perform the detection of weeds, and from it, with the information obtained, to drive an actuator that controls the operation of corresponding media valves that command the work of the sprinklers arranged in the carrier boom of the sprayer, through which it is possible to apply herbicidal products, or exercise a control over them that may be mechanical or chemical.

An electrostatic oiling system for use with single blanks in batch systems having an open spray chamber without the need for a negative vacuum chamber. Further, the provided electrostatic oiling system may utilize induction beams and a charge wall that allows for utilization of a smaller vacuum system. Further, the provided electrostatic oiling system may provide variable blank coverage without the need for metered pumps.

A water saving motion activated showerhead device for saving water and energy and providing entertainment includes a housing, which is attachable to an inlet pipe of a shower enclosure so that a spray is generated by holes positioned in a front of the housing. A sensor detects motion in the shower enclosure in an area upon which the spray is directed and signals a valve to control a flow of water through the housing. A receiver receives an audio signal from an electronic device of a user and relays the audio signal to a speaker attached to the housing for broadcast. A heating module in the housing selectively heats the water that passes through the housing.

An amusement park attraction effects system includes a dynamic display for viewing by a user traveling through an attraction, a display monitor to provide status data indicative of a status of the dynamic display, a location identification system to determine a location of the user, a thrust-vectoring flow effect generator to generate and direct a fluid flow toward any particular target location of a range of target locations, and an automation controller communicatively coupled to the display monitor, the location identification system, and the thrust-vectoring flow effect generator. The automation controller is configured to receive the status data, receive the location of the user, set a target location based on the location of the user, instruct the thrust-vectoring flow effect generator to direct the fluid flow based on the target location, and instruct the thrust-vectoring flow effect generator to control the fluid flow based on the status data.

An apparatus for applying a sealing and/or a coating substance to a component, in particular a vehicle body component. The apparatus includes kinematics, a spray device, and a sensor. The apparatus is configured to: a) acquire computer-aided design (CAD)-based information on the component; and in real time: b) acquire actual information on the component by the first sensor; c) create a movement profile for the kinematics and an application profile for the spray device on a basis of the CAD-based information and the actual information; and d) execute the movement profile and the application profile on the component.
