Abstract: A non-parametric method of, and system for, dimensioning an object of arbitrary shape, captures a three-dimensional (3D) point cloud of data points over a field of view containing the object and a base surface on which the object is positioned, detects a base plane indicative of the base surface from the point cloud, extracts the data points of the object from the point cloud, processes the extracted data points of the object to obtain a convex hull, and fits a bounding box of minimum volume to enclose the convex hull. The bounding box has a pair of mutually orthogonal planar faces, and the fitting is performed by orienting one of the faces to be generally perpendicular to the base plane, and by simultaneously orienting the other of the faces to be generally parallel to the base plane.

Abstract: Systems (100) and methods (1000) for operating a Security Tag ("ST"). The methods involve rotating a Rotational Clip ("RC") of ST (132) towards a Housing Base ("HB") of ST until RC (406) contacts a latch (610) disposed within HB (404), where an article resides between a first pad (602) fixedly coupled to RC and a second pad (604) movably coupled to HB. An angled surface (626) of RC slides against an angled surface (624) of the latch so as to cause compression of a cap spring (614) and a latch spring (612). The cap spring is disposed in HB such that a center axis (818) thereof is perpendicular to a center axis (816) of the latch spring. When the latch becomes aligned with an aperture (628) formed in the rotational clip, the latch travels into the aperture as result from a pushing force applied thereto by the latch spring.

Abstract: Semiconductor Quantum Cascade Lasers (QCLs), in particular mid-IR lasers emitting at wavelengths of about 3 - 50 µm, are often designed as deep etched buried heterostructure QCLs. The buried heterostructure configuration is favored since the high thermal conductivity of the burying layers, usually of InP, and the low losses guarantee devices high power and high performance. However, if such QCLs are designed for and operated at short wavelengths, a severe disadvantage shows up: the high electric field necessary for such operation drives the operating current partly inside the insulating burying layer. This reduces the current injected into the active region and produces thermal losses, thus degrading performance of the QCL. The invention solves this problem by providing, within the burying layers, effectively designed current blocking or quantum barriers of, e.g. AIAs, InAIAs, InGaAs, InGaAsP, or InGaSb, sandwiched between the usual InP or other burying layers, intrinsic or Fe-doped. These quantum barriers reduce the described negative effect greatly and controllably, resulting in a QCL operating effectively also at short wavelengths and/or in high electric fields.

Abstract: Data from many buildings is used to machine train a cascade of classifiers. The cascade learns to classify in layers that relate to each other. One classifier identifies one characteristic and the other classifier uses the identified characteristic to identify another characteristic. For example, a cascade learns to classify buildings, efficiency, or cost associated with particular building automation systems (e.g., building A has increased heating cost), to classify the fault leading to the cost (e.g., hot water supply temperature causes increased cost), and to classify the source of the fault (e.g., valve position or valve) in a cascade. The resulting machine-learnt cascade is applied to data for any number of buildings.
