Devices, networks, systems, methods, and processes for standardizing power usage measurement in various devices, components, etc. Measurement methods for power verification in AC or DC input power are often over simplified or done with a method that achieves inaccurate or highly suspect results. Different testing methods for the same device to be verified are often used, resulting in lack of consistency and any sense of accuracy and/or relevance. Part of this problem is the lack of unified electrical measuring and changes in operation based on network usage and ambient temperature. Thus, various embodiments described herein are directed to generating standardized power usage data and charts that can indicate a more accurate power usage level of an apparatus. This can allow for more effective network managing decisions and increase overall network sustainability.

Standardized power measurements with increased accuracy

A structure includes a first copper layer and a first carbon layer applied directly to a surface of the first copper layer, a second copper layer and a second carbon layer applied directly to a surface of the second copper layer, and an insulating core disposed between the first and second copper layers. Each of the first carbon layer and the second carbon layer faces toward and directly contacts the insulating core. The structure provides electrical power to a component of an electronic device.

Providing one or more carbon layers to a copper conductive material to reduce power loss in a power plane

In one embodiment, a method includes initiating a protection mode at a network device having a protective cover installed to filter airflow entering a network device, reducing one or more of a fan speed, processing functions, or power at the network device, exiting the protection mode upon removal of the protective cover from the network device, and increasing one or more of the fan speed, the processing functions, or the power to resume normal operation at the network device.

Method and apparatus for protection of network device during increase in environmental contamination

A system includes a millimeter (MM) wave radar detector, where the MM wave radar detector generates signal data associated with a person of interest (POI) within a field of view of the MM wave radar detector. The system further includes an Access Point (AP) coupled with the MM wave radar detector. The AP includes a computing device to receive and analyze the signal data provided by the MM wave radar detector to determine a movement or action of the POI within the field of view, and facilitate generation of a feedback response in response to the determined movement or action of the POI.

System, method, and computer readable storage media for millimeter wave radar detection of physical actions coupled with an access point off-load control center

In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a first member, a second member configured for coupling with the first member, an authentication module integrated into one of the first or second member, and a locking device operable to lock the second member to the first member, and unlock the second member from the first member upon receiving input from the authentication module. The authentication module is operable to authenticate an unlock request received from an external source.

Locking fastener assembly with authentication based unlocking

In one embodiment, a method includes identifying a plurality of servers located in a plurality of electric vehicles, associating the servers with an electric vehicle based cloud data center, allocating resources to the servers in the electric vehicle based cloud data center to perform data center functions, and managing the servers in the electric vehicle based cloud data center.

Method and apparatus for providing data center functions for support of an electric vehicle based data center

In one embodiment, an electric vehicle system includes a power system for charging a battery installed in an electric vehicle and comprising a bi-directional power and data connector for receiving power and data from or transmitting the power and data to an electric vehicle charging device, a communications system comprising a server and configured for receiving power from the power system and receiving data from or transmitting the data to the power system for download or upload at the electric vehicle charging device, and an authentication module for authenticating the electric vehicle charging device. A method is also disclosed herein.

Power distribution and communications for electric vehicle

A power plane structure for a printed circuit board includes a copper layer, and a carbon layer applied directly to a surface of the copper layer. The carbon layer can include graphite or graphene. In additional embodiments, a duplicate power plane structure for a printed circuit board includes two power planes separated by an insulating core, each power plane including a copper layer and a carbon layer applied directly to a surface of the copper layer.

Provided is a method and device for positioning a vehicle attachment point in a vehicle environment. On retrieving a plurality of object parameters relating to an object, a determination is made for a vehicle distance value relative to the vehicle attachment point in order to accommodate an object distance parameter that was retrieved from the plurality of object parameters. A vehicle environment assessment is then made relating to accommodating the physical characteristics of the object and the vehicle associated with the vehicle attachment point. Based on the assessment, vehicle attachment point positional data may be generated for positioning the vehicle attachment point relative to a vehicle environment based on at least the object distance parameter and the vehicle distance value.
