Abstract:
An electric vehicle drive system includes a controller area network (CAN) bus, a plurality of sensors, a vehicle functional module, a database device, an artificial intelligence (AI) computer and an intermediate agent device electrically connected to the database device, the vehicle functional module and the AI computer, and used to identify the kind of the vehicle functional module, match out a communication format corresponding to the kind of the vehicle functional module, produce an instruction complying with the communication format by simulating another instruction received from the AI computer, and send the instruction to the vehicle functional module for performing a specific function for a vehicle.
Abstract:
A roller partition wall comprises a ceiling bracket, a floor bracket, a partition wall, and a plurality of rollers. A bottom surface of the ceiling bracket forms a first sliding slot, a top surface of the floor bracket forms a second sliding slot corresponding to the first sliding slot, a top surface and a bottom surface of the partition wall are respectively inserted into the first sliding slot and the second sliding slot, and the partition wall is capable of movably disposing between the first sliding slot and the second sliding slot. The rollers are disposed in the second sliding slot and are between the partition wall and the second sliding slot. Since the partition wall is disposed between the ceiling bracket and the floor bracket, the partition wall can be moved left and right between the ceiling bracket and the floor bracket during shaking in an earthquake.
Abstract:
A human powered watercraft or land vehicle is described herein. A watercraft or land vehicle may have two pedals that reciprocated are in a linear or slightly curved trajectory but not a circular motion. As the two pedals are reciprocated, an output shaft is rotated in either a clockwise or counterclockwise direction when the left pedal is pushed forward or when the right pedal is pushed forward. The output shaft may be connected to a propeller of a watercraft or a land vehicle so as to propel the watercraft or land vehicle forward. The output shaft may receive rotational input through two gears mounted to the output shaft with one-way bearings that enable the output shaft to rotate in the same direction regardless of whether the left pedal or the right pedal is being pushed forward.

Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for more efficiently cleaning a substrate having a notch in a plasma processing chamber configured for bevel edge cleaning. A notched plasma exclusion ring an inner periphery and an outer periphery is provided. The notched plasma exclusion ring has a ring notch formed at its outer periphery. The notched plasma exclusion ring has a notch apex dimension that is at least as large as a notch apex dimension of the substrate notch and a notch opening dimension that is at least as large as a notch opening dimension of the substrate notch. Methods for obtaining misalignment data and for subsequently rotate substrates to more efficiently clean the substrate notch are also disclosed.
Abstract:
Methods, systems and program products for hiding the presentation of a first input field that would obscure the presentation of a distinct second input field on a display device. User input directed to the second input field is accepted and provided the first input field instead of to the second input field. The contents of the first input field are copied to the second input field. The presentation of the second input field is updated on the display device to include the copied contents.
Abstract:
Methods and systems to optimize wafer placement repeatability in semiconductor manufacturing equipment using a controlled series of wafer movements are provided. In one embodiment, a preliminary station calibration is performed to teach a robot position for each station interfaced to facets of a vacuum transfer module used in semiconductor manufacturing. The method also calibrates the system to obtain compensation parameters that take into account the station where the wafer is to be placed, position of sensors in each facet, and offsets derived from performing extend and retract operations of a robot arm. In another embodiment where the robot includes two arms, the method calibrates the system to compensate for differences derived from using one arm or the other. During manufacturing, the wafers are placed in the different stations using the compensation parameters.
Abstract:
An artificial sensor comprises at least one substrate, and a plurality of flow sensors disposed on the at least one substrate for providing a plurality of spatial-temporally varying signals representing a hydrodynamic stimulus. The plurality of flow sensors are spatially distributed on the at least one substrate. A processor is coupled to the plurality of flow sensors for receiving the signals and determining spatial-temporal information from the received signals.
Abstract:
Systems and methods, including computer software products, can be implemented for selecting data on a mobile device on which multiple channels are defined. Each channel can be adapted to receive a predetermined type of content for access on the mobile device. Multiple languages may also be defined on the device, and multiple data sets for at least one of the channels are received, wherein each data set is configured for presentation in a different one of the languages. One of the data sets may be selected based on a current location.
