System and method for collection, control and display of cameras and images. Software may direct the cameras to targeted images automatically or manually. Artificial Intelligence (AI) may be used to identify targets and automatically direct one or more cameras to focus on a target. Images taken by one or more cameras may then be stored and displayed for later viewing or live streamed. Images may be aggregated to create up to a three hundred sixty-degree (360) view. Images may be conventional, thermal or infrared. Image parameters, such as sharpness and gain, may be adjusted in real-time at the camera level or during post processing on merged/panorama images to provide a consistent merged image for the end user. One or more cameras may be controlled by clicking on an image, including the generated panoramic 360 image, or a map overlaid with images and other data. Three dimensional (3D) models may be created by the software from the images taken by the cameras. Visualizations and map overlays may be created from the data collected.

PT/PT-Z camera command, control and visualization system and method

System and method incorporating devices wirelessly connected to remote gateway locations or other devices. Remote gateway locations can be located on towers, buildings, silos, trees, utility poles, light poles or any other support structure capable of supporting the equipment used. A wired or wireless backhaul connects each remote gateway to a centralized headend gateway location via Ethernet, fiber, laser, or licensed or unlicensed microwave signals. Devices wirelessly connected to a remote gateway location device then act like a new remote gateway, redistributing signals to the surrounding area for additional CPEs to connect to that CPE. This continues over and over in a self-propagating manner, creating one or more network legs off the original remote gateway device.

Wireless internet access system and method of using the same

System and method for collection, control and wireless transmission of environmental and other data. Nodes may wirelessly connect to other nodes to relay node specific information, collected sensor data or commands to and from other nodes and gateway nodes linked to a central database. Nodes in gateway mode may be capable of aggregating and relaying commands and data between other nodes and a centralized database. Nodes may bypass other nodes and/or gateway nodes and communicate directly with the central database via satellite or cellular link. Nodes may be self-contained devices, inclusive of a wind or solar power source and a battery, eliminating the need for an external power source. Nodes may be configured independently or as a system to monitor and control various types of equipment including utility lines or water systems or used to collect environmental data. Nodes may communicate on different channels/frequencies based on systematic or pseudo-random changes.

System and method for collection, control and wireless transmission of environmental and other data. Nodes may wirelessly connect to other nodes to relay node specific information, collected sensor data or commands to and from other nodes and gateway nodes linked to a central database. Node connections can be autonomously or statically configured and maintained.

Flow control devices and methods using the flow control devices are provided. In a general embodiment, a cassette includes a housing having a constrictor, a tube attached to the housing and positioned through the constrictor, and a ball positioned inside the tube. The constrictor can be constructed and arranged to prevent the ball from moving through the tube at the location proximate the constrictor. The ball can prevent fluid flow in one position and be dislodged to allow fluid flow when the cassette is positioned inside a pumping device. As a result, the cassette is designed to prevent free flow of fluid when an enteral feeding tube set is not installed in a pumping device.

Cassette with infusion set containing anti-freeflow ball valve for peristaltic infusion pump

System enhancement(s) are disclosed that can add capabilities, such as, using Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA) and/or Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) and/or Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) capabilities along with Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) antennas and/or Global Positioning System (GPS) synchronization. The use of two radios in both the base-station and the subscriber-station, i.e., customer premises equipment (CPE), e.g., can allow frequency division to be utilized, exploiting higher receive gains at the CPE while not affecting transmissions occurring on the other radio's frequency.

Flow control devices.&#x2014;In a general embodiment, the present disclosure provides a cassette () comprising a housing having a flow restrictor (), and a tube () attached to the housing and positioned adjacent the flow restrictor. The flow restrictor may be so constructed and arranged to rotate from a first position in which the flow restrictor prevents fluid flow through the tube to a second position in which fluid is able to flow through the tube when the cassette is positioned inside a pumping device. As a result, the cassette is designed to prevent free flow of fluid when an enteral feeding tube set is not installed in a pumping device.

System of receive coils and pads for use with magnetic resonance imaging

A wireless network access system and method that provides a multiplicity of access point devices, each being capable of relaying information. The upstream network access may include an omni-directional antenna for downstream communications. The wireless network is provided as a tree structure wherein each access point feeds back to a higher access point of the multiplicity of access point devices. The described system does not employ routers, and thereby speeds processing time and reduces network latency and costs associated with a mesh network employing routers. A multiplicity of customer premise wireless network devices are provided with a wireless modem for communication from the customer premise limited to a path all the way back to a main gateway upstream to the wired side of the network where the gateway provides a T3 or other high speed Internet connection. Each customer premise wireless network access device includes a directional antenna connected to the wireless modem and an interface adapted for conveying bidirectional data signals. The wireless modem and the directional antenna are locatable in an environmental enclosure outside the customer premise for communication with an upstream network access device. Anything that comes in on the wireless side has to go out on the wired side, i.e., via the gateway. The relay points for communicating information via the access point devices provide filtering, e.g., on the Ethernet hub, such that communications is limited as between the downstream customer premise and the access point providing service only upstream communication directly to the gateway.

Wireless internet access system

The anti-splitting device of the present invention has a central-web portion and a pair of end web portions, which are joined adjacent to their midpoints to opposite ends of the central web portion to provide the device with generally I-shaped cross-sectional configurations. The web portions have first side edges tapered to define a cutting edge and second side edges serving to define a planar driven surface disposed parallel to the cutting edge. And on the central web portion are at least two projections to upstand from driven surface. The projections are adapted to removably attach the device to a driver employed to insert the device into a log. The driver of the present invention is preferably in the form of a manually operational hammer having a planar driver surface of circular plan form configuration and a circular groove that has an outer diameter equidistant and an inner diameter equidistant from a given fixed point, the center of the planar driving surface. The groove receives the projections and contacts a predetermined portion of the projections; the projections exert a force on either the outer diameter or the inner diameter, and do not contact both diameters at the same time. The device can then be freely rotated in the groove to obtain a desired position on the driver surface.

Adjustable anti-splitting device

A generally I-shaped, plastic anti-splitting device is provided with projections serving to removably attach the device to a driver, such as a manually operated hammer.
