    摘要: Continuous change of state directions are graphically provided on a display screen to assist a user in performing necessary action(s) for transitioning between operating modes in a medical robotic system or performing corrective action. A graphical representation of a target state of an element of the medical robotic system is displayed on a display screen viewable by the user. Current states of the element and indications directing the user to manipulate the element towards the target state are continuously determined and graphical representations of the continuously determined current states and indications are displayed on the display screen along with that of the target state.

    摘要: A device and method for providing yaw control for a balancing transporter that has two laterally disposed ground-contacting wheels. The method has the steps of receiving a user input of a desired yaw value; comparing an instantaneous yaw value with the desired yaw value to generate a yaw error value; processing the yaw error value to obtain a yaw command signal; and applying the yaw command signal in conjunction with a pitch command signal based on a pitch error in such a manner as to maintain balance of the transporter in the course of executing yaw control. The yaw command signal may include component terms quadratic in the pitch error and/or a function of a common wheel rotational velocity. A control input mechanism is wirelessly coupled to the controller of the balancing transporter so as to maintain the sealed integrity of a user interface.

    摘要: A composition including exfoliated vermiculite and ash produces a soft clinker deposit. In a method to remove ash deposits from furnace structures, vermiculite is added to the gases and ash produced during a combustion process and combines with the ash forming deposits. The vermiculite-ash deposit is softer than a pure ash deposit and can be removed by the application of jets of steam to the furnace structures. An apparatus, used to preheat and inject vermiculite into furnace structures, includes a housing having walls defining a passage. The housing has a distal portion for projecting into containment vessel holding combustion gases and a proximal portion for receiving hot gas under pressure. The passage within the proximal portion includes a narrow section, a tapered section and a wide section. The tapered section has an opening for communicating with a source of vermiculite and for withdrawing the vermiculite as high velocity hot gas is directed into the narrow section, through the tapered section and out the wide section by a venturi effect. The vermiculite mixes with the hot gas as the vermiculite and hot gas exit through the wide section of said proximal portion and out the distal portion of the housing.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for detecting a sensor angle error in a system in which a measured quantity is determined on the basis of a phase of a signal. A signal derived from the measurement of multiple sensors is ascribed to a vector in a two-dimensional space, and a norm is calculated characterizing that vector. A value is calculated characterizing variation of that norm over a specified period of time and that value is compared with a threshold in order to identify a sensor fault.
