Abstract: Embodiment herein provides an Infrastructure article (101) and method thereof for synchronizing blinks of infrastructure articles in a mesh network. The method includes detecting an expiry of a sync timer counted by a real time clock (RTC) and determining whether a charge level of a battery (105) of the infrastructure article (101) meets a battery charge threshold. When the charge level of the battery (105) of the infrastructure article (101) meets the battery charge threshold, the method includes establishing a connection with other infrastructure article and/or an infrastructure article server (200) in the mesh network, and sending a time to synchronize blink of the at least one light source (106) to all other infrastructure articles in the mesh network. When the charge level of the battery (105) of the infrastructure article (101) does not meet the battery charge threshold, the method includes resetting the sync timer, and initiating a count of the sync timer.

Abstract: At least some aspects of the present disclosure feature a waveguide for propagating an electromagnetic wave. The waveguide includes a base material and a plurality of resonators disposed in a pattern, the plurality of resonators having a resonance frequency. Each of the plurality of resonators has a relative permittivity greater than a relative permittivity of the base material. At least two of the plurality of resonators are spaced according to a lattice constant that defines a distance between a center of a first one of the resonators and a center of a neighboring second one of the resonators.

Abstract: A wetness sensor includes a substrate that carries a tuned RF circuit. The circuit includes a conductive pattern applied to the substrate, a capacitor, and a jumper all disposed on a same side of the substrate. The conductive pattern includes an inductive coil, and an inner and outer terminus. The jumper electrically couples the inner terminus to the outer terminus. The jumper also includes a frangible link which, when contacted by a target fluid, produces a drastic change in the operation of the RF circuit. The drastic change can be interpreted by a remote reader as a “wet” condition. Contact of the frangible link by the target fluid may change the impedance or resistance of the RF circuit by at least a factor of 5, 10, 100, or more, and/or may cause the frangible link to disintegrate to produce an open circuit, and/or may substantially render the RF circuit inoperative.

CPC classification number: A61F13/42
Abstract: A wetness sensor includes a self-supporting substrate and an electrically conductive trace carried by the substrate. The trace is patterned to provide at least a portion of a tuned RF circuit, which may be disposed on only one side of the substrate and characterized by an impedance or resistance. The trace is not self-supporting. The substrate is adapted to dissolve, swell, or otherwise degrade when contacted by a target fluid. Such degradation produces a drastic change in the operation of the RF circuit, which can be interpreted by a remote reader as a “wet” condition. Contact of the substrate by the target fluid may change the impedance or resistance of the RF circuit by at least a factor of 5, 10, 100, or 1000, and/or may cause the trace to disintegrate so as to provide the RF circuit with an open circuit, and/or may substantially render the RF circuit inoperative.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes a control scheme for actively detecting the presence of a pedestrian which triggers the lighting of a bollard-style luminaire, methods for crosswalk illumination using the bollard-style luminaires, and methods of communication between bollard-style luminaires. The present disclosure further describes actively monitoring for vehicles and indicating safe passage, through lighting feedback on a pedestrian crosswalk or other walkway. The bollard luminaire includes a design that generally confines light to illuminate the crosswalk and the pedestrian in the crosswalk, such that light that could produce glare for the pedestrian and/or a driver approaching the crosswalk is minimized.

Abstract: A system and method for determining a sensing capability of a PAAV and for performing at least one operation of the PAAV as a function of at least one policy applied to the sensing capability determined for the PAAV. A sensing capability of the PAAV is determined at least in part on sensor data received from at least one sensor accuracy measurement feature deployed along a pathway. At least one operation of the PAAV is performed as a function of at least one policy applied to the sensing capability determined for the PAAV.
