Multi-bandwidth communication for fluid distribution network
A method includes obtaining a set of pressure measurements at an electronic pump and storing the set of pressure measurements in a memory storage, where each measurement time of the set of pressure measurements is within a measurement duration. The method includes determining and sending a measure of central tendency to a second computing device via a first wireless signal. The method also includes determining a subset of pressure measurements based on the set of pressure measurements. The method includes transferring the first subset of pressure measurements to a data collection device via a second wireless signal, wherein an operating frequency of the second wireless signal is greater than one gigahertz and deleting the first subset of measurements from the memory storage.
BLUETOOTH TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OPERATING THE SAME
A Bluetooth tire pressure monitoring system and a method for operating the Bluetooth tire pressure monitoring system include a Bluetooth receiver cooperated with the existed Bluetooth tire pressure monitoring system and located at different position from the Bluetooth host. The Bluetooth receiver is connected to the Bluetooth host and the Bluetooth tire pressure sensor. The Bluetooth tire pressure sensor sends the tire pressure info to the Bluetooth host and the Bluetooth receiver respectively. The Bluetooth receiver forwards the tire pressure info to the Bluetooth host to check the tire pressure info again so as to ensure that the tire pressure info that the Bluetooth host received is a complete tire pressure info regardless the distance between the Bluetooth host and the Bluetooth tire pressure sensor.

Flexible piezoelectric devices for gastrointestinal motility sensing
Improvements in ingestible electronics with the capacity to sense physiologic and pathophysiologic states have transformed the standard of care for patients. Yet despite advances in device development, significant risks associated with solid, non-flexible gastrointestinal transiting systems remain. Here, we disclose an ingestible, flexible piezoelectric device that senses mechanical deformation within the gastric cavity. We demonstrate the capabilities of the sensor in both in vitro and ex vivo simulated gastric models, quantified its key behaviors in the GI tract by using computational modeling, and validated its functionality in awake and ambulating swine. Our piezoelectric devices can safely sense mechanical variations and harvest mechanical energy inside the gastrointestinal tract for diagnosing and treating motility disorders and for monitoring ingestion in bariatric applications.

Method of determining the health of a tire on a vehicle
A method of determining the health of a tire on a vehicle includes determining a total number of tire inflation events that have occurred due to a loss of tire pressure. A rate in which the tire inflation events have occurred is determined based on the total number of tire inflation events over a predetermined period of time. The health of a tire is determined by comparing the rate in which tire inflation events have occurred to a threshold rate.
