Portable herbicide application apparatuses are provided that can include an application mechanism operatively coupled to opposing platforms supporting an application member, with the application mechanism configured to move the opposing platforms from a first position apart from one another to a second position proximate one another, and the surfaces of the platforms supporting the application member are substantially free of encumbrances Liquid herbicide application methods are provided which can include moving the application member from one location on the biomass to another location on the biomass while both maintaining physical contact with the biomass, and applying liquid herbicide, and/or engaging a mechanical application mechanism to apply liquid herbicide to the uppermost portion of biomass from a lowest most portion of an application member, with the application member physically contacting the biomass during the applying.

It is desired to test network management applications, for example, to show that they will work with large or very large networks, to determine the upper bounds of the applications capabilities, and to determine improvements which might, for example, increase the upper bounds. A method of testing a network application is disclosed providing a mapping of the layer-3 addresses of a real subnetwork onto a plurality of mapped layer-3 subnetwork addresses for conversations with the application or device. A packet is modified to change a destination layer-3 address in a mapped subnetwork, to point to the corresponding real IP address and the packet is forwarded on. The conversation to which a response from a reallayer-3 address relates is identified. The source layer-3 address and packet contents are changed into the appropriate mapped subnetwork and the packet is forwarded to the application or device. In operation, an existing test network of any size may be used as the basis for testing the network management application. In an embodiment, a small driver, the “IP address mapping shim” (simply referred to as the shim hereafter), working within the network stack of the server running the network management application, maps one or more (usually private) IP subnets onto the real IP subnet of the test network. The former IP subnets are hereafter referred to as mapped subnets, while the latter subnet is hereafter referred to as the real subnet.

A technique for estimating the location of a wireless terminal at an unknown location in a geographic region is disclosed. The technique is based on the recognition that there are traits of electromagnetic signals that are dependent on topography, the receiver, the location of the transmitter, and other factors. For example, if a particular radio station is known to be received strongly at a first location and weakly at a second location, and a given wireless terminal at an unknown location is receiving the radio station weakly, it is more likely that the wireless terminal is at the second location than at the first location.

A light emitting element structure and a circuit thereof are provided. The light emitting element circuit includes a driving unit and a light emitting element. The driving unit is used for generating a driving current at a light emission period. The light emitting element includes a current transferring unit and a light emitting unit. The current transferring unit is connected with the driving unit to transfer the driving current and generate a light emitting current at the light emission period. The light emitting unit is connected with the current transferring unit and emits light in response to the light emitting current. The light emitting unit is connected with the current transferring unit and emits light in response to the light emitting current.
摘要:
A method of estimating the location of a wireless terminal is disclosed that is ideally suited for use with legacy systems. The illustrative embodiment of the present invention is based on the observation that the signal strength of a signal from a transmitter is different at some locations, and, therefore, the location of a wireless terminal can be estimated by comparing the signal strength it currently observes against a map or database that correlates locations to signal strengths. For example, if a particular radio station is known to be received well at a first location and poorly at a second location, and a given wireless terminal at an unknown location is receiving the radio station poorly, it is more likely that the wireless terminal is at the second location than it is at the first location.

An integrated wireless location and facial/speaker-recognition system that provides distinct advantages over facial-recognition systems and speaker-recognition systems of the prior art is disclosed. The integrated system is capable of using information from a wireless location system to improve the performance of the facial recognition and speaker recognition. The system is capable of processing photographs and/or audio samples captured by a camera/microphone at a fixed location (e.g., a digital pan-zoom-tilt (PZT) surveillance camera, etc.) as well as those captured by a mobile camera/microphone (e.g., a digital camera and microphone in a smartphone, etc.). The system also features a feedback mechanism by which the location-informed results can be used to improve the system's recognition abilities.

The application discloses systems and methods for X-ray scanning for identifying material composition of an object being scanned. The system includes at least one X-ray source for projecting an X-ray beam on the object, where at least a portion of the projected X-ray beam is transmitted through the object, and an array of detectors for measuring energy spectra of the transmitted X-rays. The measured energy spectra are used to determine atomic number of the object for identifying the material composition of the object. The X-ray scanning system may also have an array of collimated high energy backscattered X-ray detectors for measuring the energy spectrum of X-rays scattered by the object at an angle greater than 90 degrees, where the measured energy spectrum is used in conjunction with the transmission energy spectrum to determine atomic numbers of the object for identifying the material composition of the object.
摘要:
A process and machine for estimating the location of a wireless terminal is disclosed. The illustrative embodiment of the present invention is based on the observation that the signal strength of a signal from a transmitter is different at some locations, and, therefore, the location of a wireless terminal can be estimated by comparing the signal strength it currently observes against a map or database that correlates locations to signal strengths. In accordance with a first example, if a particular radio station is known to be received well at a first location and poorly at a second location, and a given wireless terminal at an unknown location is receiving the radio station poorly, it is more likely that the wireless terminal is at the second location than it is at the first location.
