    摘要: An inspection system includes an excitation light source, a voltage-sensing film, an illumination light source, an image capture device. The excitation light source provides an excitation beam to light-emitting diodes to generate open-circuit voltages. The voltage-sensing film is at a top side of the light-emitting diodes and includes a voltage-sensing medium layer and a first electrode layer. The first electrode layer is in the voltage-sensing medium layer to provide a gain effect of the open-circuit voltages, so that the voltage-sensing medium layer senses the open-circuit voltages, and a display of the voltage-sensing medium layer is changed with a portion or all of the open-circuit voltages. The illumination light source provides an illumination beam to the voltage-sensing film to generate a sensing image according to a display change. The image capture device is on a transmission path of the sensing image and receives the sensing image to generate an inspection result.

    摘要: An adapter for use with components of a truck trailer. The adapter may include multiple input terminals corresponding with multiple terminals of a trailer component socket of a trailer, and multiple output terminals configured to electrically connect with corresponding input terminals of a trailer component. The adapter may also include an adapter circuit configured to electrically connect at least four of the input terminals with at least four of the multiple output terminals. The multiple output terminals may include at least two mode selection output terminals configured to provide a mode selection to the trailer component, and the trailer component optionally includes control logic configured to activate and deactivate the trailer component according to the mode selection.

    摘要: A smart lamp system and method for monitoring a status of LEDs. The system can provide LED status monitoring using a logic controller communicating with at least one strip of LEDs. The system can utilize the logic controller to assign a unique identifier (ID) to the at least one strip of LEDs based on a physical position of a plurality of dual-inline package (DIP) switches incorporated within a smart lamp housing. The system can provide a hardware architecture to interface the logic controller with a power-line communication (PLC) transceiver. The system can establish a communication protocol between the PLC transceiver and a PLC receiver to efficiently communicate the statuses of the LEDs. The logic controller can generate a payload including a binary representation of the unique ID of the smart lamp and the statuses of the LEDs and transmit the payload to the PLC transceiver.

    摘要: An assembly for interfacing an existing harness connector of an installed wiring harness to a test module. The assembly comprises: a harness-specific connector which is connectable to the existing harness connector, a test box connector module connected to the harness-specific connector, for connecting to a test module, and a unique identifier which is readable on the assembly and which is unique to the test box connector module; wherein the unique identifier is used to identify the test box connector module and to determine a configuration that corresponds to the identifier of the assembly, and to determine the correspondence between contacts of the test module to contacts of the existing harness connector.
