A distributed building management system includes a virtual controller and an edge controller for controlling a building control device using a distributed control logic that is distributed between the virtual controller and the edge controller. A programming tool displays a graphical representation of the distributed control logic and identifies which portions of the distributed control logic are considered critical and which portions of the distributed control logic are considered not critical to a fail-safe operation of the building control device should the edge controller stop receiving control commands from the virtual controller. The portions of the distributed control logic that are identified as being critical are assigned to the edge controller for execution and the portions of the distributed control logic that are not identified as being critical are assigned to the virtual controller for execution.

The present invention discloses a user portrait based skill package recommendation device, comprising: an acquisition module, used for acquiring and collating the identity information of an intelligent robot user and the interaction information of the user and an intelligent robot, and acquiring the user portrait information of the user; an analysis module, connected to a skill package management platform at a cloud network terminal, and used for analyzing the user portrait information and associating a first skill package on the skill package management platform according to the user portrait information; and a recommendation module, used for acquiring the description information of each first skill package, and pushing the description information to the intelligent robot user.

An input module for an industrial controller includes configurable execution windows. The execution windows are defined by a first parameter and a second parameter stored within the input module. A third parameter defines a status bit which is compared against the execution window to set a window output signal within the input module. The execution window may define a range between the first and second parameters against which the status bit is compared. Alternately, the first and second parameters may define setpoints against which the status bit is compared. At one of the setpoints, the window output signal is set and at the other of the setpoints, the window output signal is reset.

The present disclosure relates to an Artificial Intelligence (AI) enabled smart facial hair grooming device designed to groom, design, or shave facial hair automatically. Aspects of the present disclosure relate to a grooming device 100 capable of grooming, designing or shaving facial hair of a user, the grooming device 100 including a face shield 102 configured with a plurality of razors 108 installed on at least one inner surface of the face shield 102, at least one micro-controller configured to control movement of the plurality of razors 108, and an Artificial Intelligence (AI) based pixel identifier (PI) module configured to visualize a desired facial hair style on face of the user and program the micro-controller with or without additional motors to move each of the plurality of razors 108 in a desired direction to allow cutting of facial hair of the user as per the desired facial hair style.

An input module for an industrial controller is configurable to simplify setup and commissioning. The input module includes input terminals configurable, for example, as a counter input. Still other input terminals may be configured to trigger events as a function of the input signals present at the terminals. Time signals corresponding to transitions in state of the input terminals, triggering of events, or operation of the counters may be recorded. The input module is further configurable to transmit data back to the processor or to transmit data directly to another module in the industrial control network.

An output module for an industrial controller configurable to simplify setup and commissioning is disclosed. The output module includes configurable PWM outputs that may be scheduled to start at different times within the PWM period, that may be configured to generate a fixed number of PWM pulses, and that may have an extendable PWM period. The output terminals are configurable to enter a first state upon generation of a fault and further configurable to enter a second state after a configurable time delay following the fault being generated. The output module may receive inputs signals directly from another module and set output signals at the terminals responsive to these signals.
