Abstract:
A method for manual welder training that includes providing a welding training apparatus that includes both hardware and software components and that is operative to gather and process data in real time, wherein the data is derived from an actual training exercise conducted by a welding trainee; selecting training objectives from a predetermined number of predefined objectives; initializing a curriculum, wherein the curriculum is based on the selected training objectives; performing at least one training exercise, wherein the training exercise is a component of the curriculum; providing real-time feedback to the trainee, wherein the real-time feedback is based on the performance of the trainee during the training exercise; evaluating the performance of the trainee based on data gathered and processed during the training exercise; optionally, adapting the curriculum based on the trainee's performance evaluation; and awarding credentials or certifications to the trainee following successful completion of the curriculum.
Abstract:
A calibration tool includes a calibration tip. The calibration tool may be for a welding training system or some other welding system. The calibration tool also includes a first marker disposed a first distance from the calibration tip and a second marker disposed a second distance from the first marker. The second distance is adjustable during calibration.
Abstract:
A weld training system is provided. The weld training system includes a welding torch configured to perform a welding procedure and a mobile device coupled to the welding torch. The mobile device is configured to detect, via one or more sensors, dynamic position or orientation information of the welding torch during the welding procedure to determine one or more operating parameters of the welding procedure. The mobile device is also configured to display a welding environment based at least in part on the one or more operating parameters.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for identifying an object. In one aspect, a method includes receiving an image of a first location. The image depicts a layout of objects located at the first location and a visual code for each object. A user interface is generated for the first location using the image and the codes. The user interface depicts the objects and a user interface element for each visual code. Each user interface element is selectable to identify the object associated with the visual code. The user interface is provided for display at a second location. Selection data is received that specifies a selection of a particular user interface element. Command data is sent to a computer located at the first location, which causes the computer to highlight the object associated with the visual code of the selected user interface element.
Abstract:
A welding, plasma cutting, or heat induction system to train a welding operator. The system includes a display configured to show a prerecorded video selected from multiple prerecorded videos. The prerecorded videos correspond to a welding application, a plasma cutting application, a heat induction application, or some combination thereof.
Abstract:
Printed instructions (4000) can be included with the tray (100) in a medical procedure kit. The printed instructions (4000) can include instructional material (4202), such as pictorial, step- by-step instructions for using the medical procedure kit. The printed instructions (4000) can be configured as a booklet. The printed instructions (4000) can be adhesively attached to outer packaging (4201), and can include a peelable label (4402) that is separable from the printed instructions (4000) and is configured for attachment to medical records. Colorization of the various components can assist in ensuring safe usage of the medical procedure kit.
Abstract:
The present invention provides test or training a cartridge for a drug delivery device as well as a method for resetting of such cartridge, wherein the cartridge comprises: - a body (12; 42) of substantially cylindrical shape, - a piston (18; 58) slidably disposed in the body (12; 42) in an axial direction, - a closure means (14; 44) disposed at an axial end portion of the body (12; 42) wherein the body (12; 42), the piston (18; 58) and the closure means (14; 44) confine an interior volume (16) coupled to the exterior via at least one fluid escape channel (28; 38; 49).
Abstract:
A fly casting training apparatus includes a shaft, a ball movable within the shaft, and adjustable limit stops for setting the range of motion of the ball within the shaft. The apparatus is used to simulate a fly casting experience, with the limit stops adjustable to simulate long casting motions, short casting motions, and casting motions there between. The device also includes an elastic band that may be used to simulate the double haul casting method.
Abstract:
