An industrial IDE supports development of control programming using an industrial domain-specific language (DSL) that allows control programming to be written using a scripted programming language having features catered to the industrial domain. The industrial DSL can simplify and streamline development of industrial control code relative to using conventional graphics-based control programming formats such as ladder logic, since a script-based industrial DSL can be used to write programming code using fewer mouse clicks relative to traditional control programming environments. Editing tools inherent to the industrial DSL can provide dynamic programming feedback that guides the developer through the process of developing control code. A development interface of the industrial IDE can comprises two editing windows that render the control program in a graphical format and in a text-based format simultaneously, allowing the user to edit the program in either format on the same interface.

An anomalous region detection system includes a controller configured to, receive data being grouped in patches, encode, via parameters of an encoder, the data to obtain a series of local latent representations for each patch, calculate, for each patch, a Contrastive Predictive Coding (CPC) loss from the local latent representations to obtain updated parameters, update the parameters of the encoder with the updated parameters, score each of the series of the local latent representations, via the Contrastive Predictive Coding (CPC) loss, to obtain a score associated with each patch, smooth the score to obtain a loss region, mask the data associated with the loss region to obtain verified data, and output the verified data.

A system for controlling heating, ventilation, or air conditioning (HVAC) equipment of a building includes one or more processing circuits configured to generate simulated building data using a simulation model of the building, pre-train a reinforcement learning (RL) model using the simulated building data, operate the HVAC equipment of the building using the RL model, and retrain the RL model using actual building data generated responsive to operating the HVAC equipment using the RL model.

An industrial integrated development environment (IDE) identifies modifications to an industrial control program using a combination of program hashing and text differencing. The system performs deep-level hashing of the control program's text model to obtain hash data comprising rung-level hash values that collectively represent the current state of the program. When edits to the program are received, the modified text model is hashed again to yield modified hash data, and differencing analysis is performed on the initial and modified hash data. Differences between the two sets of hash values are used to identify portions of the control program that have been modified so that the targeted updates to a logic view of the program can be implemented. This allows the logic view to be updated without redrawing the entire view, and without the need to store multiple copies of the program's object model for comparison purposes.

A plurality of triggers may be presented and a selection of a predefined trigger may be accepted. Corresponding actions for the selected trigger may then be presented and an assignment of building control components may be accepted for the corresponding actions. During subsequent operation of a building automation system, the selected trigger may be detected and the corresponding actions may then be performed on the assigned building control components.

A device and method for designing customized logistics flows are proposed. The device and method for designing the customized logistics flows are for managing the flow of logistics in accordance with various types of logistics devices. The method for designing the customized logistics flows includes: displaying a plurality of areas divided by a user's operation from an agent edge terminal on a screen of a display part and displaying a plurality of logistics facility icons in a first area among the plurality of areas; copying, by the user's operation, each logistics facility icon from the first area to a second area among the plurality of areas; and inputting registration information of each logistics facility icon copied to the second area.

A program generation device generating an operation program causing a robot to execute a task is provided. The program generation device includes: a display control unit displaying an input screen including an operation block, display area where an operation block relating to an operation of the robot is displayed, an operation block arrangement area where the operation block selected from the operation block display area is arranged to generate the operation program, and a text display area where the operation program is displayed in a text format; and a text editing unit editing the operation program in the text format and displaying the edited operation program in the text display area.

A system for designing automation applications based on input from a user includes a library interface, a three-dimensional workspace, a simulation engine, and controller code generation unit. The library interface is configured to receive a user selection of a plurality of components from a library of components. The three-dimensional workspace is configured to display the components and create a system design in the three-dimensional workspace using the components based on one or more instructions provided by the user. The simulation engine is configured to generate simulation code based on the system design in the three-dimensional workspace and execute the simulation code in response to a command from the user. One or more of the components in the three-dimensional workspace may be animated during execution of the simulation code. The controller code generation unit is configured to identify one or more physical controllers corresponding to the components in the three-dimensional workspace and generate controller-executable code for those physical controllers based on the system design.

Systems and methods for creating a playable video game from user-generated artwork. The systems and methods include a smart game board system having a plurality of recesses arranged in a grid and configured to accept an RFID tag embedded in a block. As the user places blocks in the recesses, an antenna system detects which recesses contain blocks, and the color or another identifier of the block. This information is transmitted to a computer system for translation into playable video game data, such as level data or a skin or image.
