Methods and systems for detecting dynamic objects using a mesh network of nodes coupled to cameras are disclosed. The system can receive sequences of frames captured by a first capture device having a first pose and a second capture device having a second pose, and track objects over time across the first sequence of frames and the second sequence of frames. The system can map the objects to three-dimensional (3D) positions in a 3D coordinate space based on correspondences between the indications of the objects. The system can determine a 3D displacement of a subset of the 3D points, and generate a 3D volume surrounding the subset. The system can use the 3D volume to classify and predict a trajectory for the dynamic object, as well as determine a risk the dynamic object poses to a protected volume in the 3D coordinate space.

A self-contained, low-cost, low-weight guidance system for vehicles is provided. The guidance system can include an optical camera, a case, a processor, a connection between the processor and an on-board control system, and computer algorithms running on the processor. The guidance system can be integrated with a vehicle control system through 'plug and play' functionality or a more open Software Development Kit. The computer algorithms re-create 3D structures as the vehicle travels and continuously updates a 3D model of the environment. The guidance system continuously identifies and tracks terrain, static objects, and dynamic objects through real-time camera images. The guidance system can receive inputs from the camera and the onboard control system. The guidance system can be used to assist vehicle navigation and to avoid possible collisions. The guidance system can communicate with the control system and provide navigational direction to the control system.

A flameless electric candle having a fan-driven scent diffuser. The candle includes a body portion having a translucent portion and a generally elongated cylindrical shape and housing therein a light emitting device configured to permit its emitted light to be partially visually discernible through the translucent portion. There is below the body portion, a base portion that includes a PCB, a switch, a light emitting device, a power source, a fan oriented to force air in a downwards direction away from the body portion, a pad configured to receive upon a surface thereof a fragrance or scent, openings in a wall of the base portion to allow the forced air scented by the fragrance to escape the base portion. The switch is selectable among a first mode in which the LED and fan are both on, an off mode both the LED and fan are off, and a second mode wherein only one of the LED or fan is on.

A mobile communication device () uses a local wireless transceiver () to establish an asynchronous link () with a remote audio processor () which is typically operated in a low power mode and that maintains an association between the mobile communication device and remote audio processor. When the mobile communication device receives an incoming call page (), the mobile communication device initiates a synchronous link with the remote audio processor, and responds to the incoming call page at a time when the call will be connected only after the synchronous link is established.

Method for reducing apparent latency in linking a call received at a mobile communication device to a remote audio processor

A mobile communication device () contains a local wireless controller () for operating with a remote audio processor (). The remote audio processor is used for listening to and speaking with remote parties via the mobile communication device, and operates in a mode having a relatively long latency in communicating with the mobile communication device. Upon receiving a dispatch call (), a baseband processor () of the mobile communication device notifies an application processor () with a high priority dispatch notification (). The high priority dispatch notification causes an active link to be established between the mobile communication device and remote audio processor sooner than if were to occur with ordinary call processing.

A lead anode for electrowinning metals from sulfuric acid solutions is formed by soldering a sheet of lead anode material endwise in a slot, which extends longitudinally along and partially through a lead alloy coated copper bus bar and into which the sheet fits tightly, and thereafter depositing lead alloy filler at all joints between the bar and anode. Anodes thus constructed have a uniform, smooth joint between the bar and sheet and thus are corrosion resistant and exhibit uniform conductivity.

Electrical testing instrument

The corresponding opposite end portions of wires at opposite ends of a multi-wire conductor are matched in accordance with this invention with the use of a direct current circuit tester in conjunction with a diode assembly. The diode assembly is connected to the wires at one end of the conductor and the direct current circuit tester is applied to the wires at the opposite end of the conductor according to a specified procedure to identify or match the corresponding opposite ends of the respective wires. The circuit tester comprises a pair of probes, a direct current power source, and indicator means all electrically connected and operable for indicating the presence of an electrically conductive path connected between the probes. A reversing switch is connected to the probes to permit reversing the polarity thereof, with the reversing switch including a handle portion positioned to facilitate readily actuating the reversing switch by someone using the circuit tester.

The corresponding opposite end portions of wires at opposite ends of a multi-wire conduit are matched in accordance with this invention with the use of a direct current circuit tester in conjunction with a plurality of diodes, one for each of the wires to be identified in the multi-wire conduit. The diodes have respective pairs of leads which are electrically connected in series in alternating polarity. The diodes are connected to the wires at one end of the conduit and the direct current circuit tester is applied to the wires at the opposite end of the conduit according to a specified procedure to identify or match the corresponding opposite ends of the respective wires.

An inclined pair of stringer beams carries a plurality of transverse steps supported on saddles secured to the stringers. The upper tread surfaces of the steps are planar whereas the lower surfaces are arcuate, with a predetermined radius of curvature matching the corresponding arcuate shape of the subjacent supporting saddles. By angularly tipping each of the steps to or fro in the respective pair of saddles, the upper tread surface of the steps can be leveled despite variations in the angle of inclination of the stringers. The step is ordinarily constructed of precast concrete and includes metal reinforcements as well as metal inserts affording anchor points for attachment to the saddle, as by threaded fastenings or by welding.
