Method for Monitoring Personal Protection Equipment Compliance

Embodiments relate generally to methods and systems for monitoring personal protection equipment (PPE) compliance. A method may comprise receiving, by a user identification (ID) module, information from sensor modules attached to PPE devices worn by the user, determining if the sensor modules indicate that the PPE devices are active or inactive, communicating the information from the user ID to a supervisor console, and displaying this information by a supervisor console. The user ID may be associated with a specific user, and the sensor modules may be associated with specific PPE devices. When it is determined that a required PPE device is inactive, corrective action may be taken by the supervisor.

Wireless Telemetry Auto Tuning For Torque Measurement System

A torque measurement system that includes a rotor device and a stator device can perform automatic tuning to improve the initial tuning performed during design and assembly. The stator device can include a variable capacitive

Vibrational Alarms Facilitated by Determination of Motor On-Off State in Variable-Duty Multi-Motor Machines

Apparatus and associated methods relate to a vibrational sensing system (VSS) including an accelerometer and a data processor, which determines an “operational state” of a mechanical drive unit, the processor further employing the “operational state”

Virtual Mask Fitting System

Apparatus and associated methods relate to determining a fit-quality metric for a mask/face combination based upon a calculated dead-space volume between a virtual mask and a virtual face virtually aligned so as to create an

Voltage Regulator with Piecewise Linear Loadlines

Apparatus and associated methods relate to providing a piecewise loadline having a number of segments with different slopes and selecting a segment of the piecewise loadline based on an output current of a power supply.
