摘要： In a motor vehicle having an engine with an exhaust catalyst and an oxygen sensor upstream of the catalyst and an oxygen sensor downstream of the catalyst, a method for detecting whether the catalyst has aged. Over a test block period of time, the method periodically obtains upstream data points from an oxygen sensor located upstream of the catalyst and from and oxygen sensor located downstream of the catalyst. Absolute differences are calculated between consecutive pairs of the upstream data points and the downstream data points. A ratio between the sums of absolute differences is then calculated, and the ratio is used to determine whether the catalyst has aged.

摘要： A machine is disclosed for wind sensing on sailboats. Wind is important for sailing, but sailboats lean away from the wind when under sail. Vertical wind angles reduce the accuracy of existing anemometers. The cup blades disclosed here do not lose rotation speed when heeling over. Since it is now easy to have a sophisticated chartplotter display on a mobile device in waterproof case even on small boats, this waterproof wind sensor is a wireless “appcessory” that can talk to smartphones, tablets, computers, e-readers and marine electronics. The circuit board is encapsulated and is itself the wind direction arrow. A fluxgate compass on the circuit board provides wind direction. The apparatus is solar-powered, so there is no wiring to install or chafe. This allows a further inventive step for raising the anemometer using the mast track without needing to climb up or lower the mast.
摘要翻译：公开了一种用于帆船上的风感测的机器。风对于帆船来说很重要，但帆船在远离风的时候会偏离风。垂直风角降低了现有风速计的精度。这里公开的杯形刀片不会在倾斜时失去转速。由于现在很容易在移动设备上使用复杂的图表绘图仪显示在防水外壳中，即使在小型船上，这种防水风力传感器也是无线的“配件”，可以与智能手机，平板电脑，电脑，电子阅读器和海洋电子产品交谈。电路板封装，本身是风向箭头。电路板上的磁通指南针提供风向。该设备是太阳能供电的，所以没有布线安装或安全。这允许使用桅杆轨道升高风速计的进一步的创造性步骤，而不需要爬升或降低桅杆。

摘要： On sailboats of any size, it is now possible to have advanced navigation using ordinary mobile devices. By sharing one's wind data and receiving data from other internet-enabled anemometers, micro-weather maps can be used to assess tacking routes, even through multiple wind zones. Crowd-sourced real-time wind maps are better than generic weather forecasts. GPS data can also be easily shared without special equipment, for performance analysis or viewing race standings in real time or replays. Methods are disclosed for polar plot learning to determine optimal tacks. The performance of other boats can also be assessed based on boat speed, GPS location, heading, wind speed and wind direction, with no polar plots needed. Rather than advantage lines or VMG, a method is disclosed for calculating tacking distances to display a novel indicator of projected Completion Time and standings for boats on a race map.

摘要： A method is disclosed that resolves a long-standing seafaring problem of how close to the wind to sail. Sailboats need a convenient way to determine the optimal heading to minimize the Tacking Time to Destination (TTD). Unlike Velocity Made Good (VMG), the method disclosed here allows route planning before the trip, predicts travel time on different points of sail, allows comparison of the optimal tacking routes, and also plots the different routes so that it is inherently obvious that a particular tacking angle is longer and more off-course but will arrive sooner because of the speed on that heading. These principles can be implemented with manual dials that define the distance and speed, to calculate the relative or actual travel time on a leg without using electronics. Software is also described that visually illustrates the current and optimal headings by calculating Tacking Time to Destination before departure.
摘要翻译：公开了一种解决长途航行问题的风险。帆船需要一种方便的方法来确定最佳航向以最小化到达目的地的Tacking Time（TTD）。与Velocity Made Good（VMG）不同的是，这里公开的方法允许在行程之前进行路线规划，预测不同航点上的行驶时间，允许比较最优路线，并绘制不同的路线，这样本身就很明显特定的固定角度越来越长，越来越偏远，因为该航向的速度将会更早到达。这些原则可以用定义距离和速度的手动拨盘来实现，以便在不使用电子元件的情况下计算腿上的相对或实际行驶时间。还描述了软件，通过在出发前计算到目的地的打包时间来直观地说明当前和最佳标题。

摘要： Single-camera image processing methods are disclosed for 3D navigation within ordinary moving video. Along with color and brightness, XYZ coordinates can be defined for every pixel. The resulting geometric models can be used to obtain measurements from digital images, as an alternative to on-site surveying and equipment such as laser range-finders. Motion parallax is used to separate foreground objects from the background. This provides a convenient method for placing video elements within different backgrounds, for product placement, and for merging video elements with computer-aided design (CAD) models and point clouds from other sources. If home users can save video fly-throughs or specific 3D elements from video, this method provides an opportunity for proactive, branded media sharing. When this image processing is used with a videoconferencing camera, the user's movements can automatically control the viewpoint, creating 3D hologram effects on ordinary televisions and computer screens.
摘要翻译：公开了用于普通移动视频内的3D导航的单摄像机图像处理方法。除了颜色和亮度，可以为每个像素定义XYZ坐标。所得到的几何模型可用于从数字图像获取测量值，作为现场测量和设备（如激光测距仪）的替代方案。运动视差用于将前景对象与背景分离。这提供了将视频元素放置在不同背景中，用于产品放置以及将视频元素与计算机辅助设计（CAD）模型和来自其他来源的点云合并的便捷方法。如果家庭用户可以从视频中保存视频播放或特定的3D元素，则此方法为主动，品牌媒体共享提供了机会。当这种图像处理与视频会议摄像机一起使用时，用户的移动可以自动控制视点，在普通电视和计算机屏幕上创建3D全息图效果。

摘要： Improvements are disclosed here for a sailboat wind sensor (PCT/CA2014/000416) in which the solar panels form the tail of the wind direction arrow, and a digital compass is built into the wind direction arrow. The battery is moved to the nose cone and held in waterproof container to serve as a counter-weight, eliminating the brass nose cone which is traditionally used on anemometers to substantially reduce the weight. A new method of encapsulating the electronics in the tail is disclosed, using ultrasonic welding of a shell over the circuit board, rather than molding a resin over the electronics.
