Filed:

Aug 6, 2013

Appl. No.:

13/960074

Inventors:

James Thornton Houts - Bend OR, US
Ryan Gregory Sullivan - Half Moon Bay CA, US

International Classification:

A61D 7/04
A61D 3/00
A61M 16/06
A61B 19/00
A61M 16/00
A61M 16/10

US Classification:

12820329

Abstract:

The present disclosure includes a method comprising positioning a nose of a rodent within a nose chamber of a device for anesthetizing the rodent, the nose chamber configured to partially enclose an anesthetizing gas and hold the nose of the rodent in contact with the anesthetizing gas, delivering a positive flow of the anesthetizing gas into the nose chamber through a gas intake channel sufficient to anesthetize the rodent, supplying a waste gas reservoir to collect the anesthetizing gas, the waste gas reservoir in communication with the nose chamber through a gas transport channel and coupled with the nose chamber in an open configuration allowing the anesthetizing gas and ambient air to flow into the waste gas reservoir, and actively retrieving the anesthetizing gas and ambient air from the waste gas reservoir with a negative flow conveyed through a gas outtake channel in communication with the waste gas reservoir.

Abstract:

Various arrangements for monitoring occupancy of multiple parking spaces are presented herein. Arrangements may use a radar-based vehicle detector that comprises a radar antenna that has a field-of-view of a portion of a parking facility. Multiple parking sensors may be present that monitor parking spaces outside of or obstructed from the field-of-view. A parking host system may be present that communicates with the radar-based vehicle detector and the plurality of parking sensors and determines in which parking space a vehicle has parked.

Inventors:

- Englewood CO, US
Ryan Sullivan - San Francisco CA, US

International Classification:

G08G 1/042
G08G 1/14

Abstract:

Various arrangements for determining that a vehicle is present in a parking space are presented. A parking sensor can make a plurality of magnetic field strength measurements using a magnetometer. A determination that the vehicle is parked proximate to the parking sensor device within the parking space can be based on a magnetic field strength measurement in relation to the selected magnetic field strength window.

International Classification:

G08G 1/042
G08G 1/14

Abstract:

Various arrangements for determining that a vehicle is present in a parking space are presented. A parking sensor can make a plurality of magnetic field strength measurements using a magnetometer. The magnetic field strength measurements are analyzed to determine a number of the plurality of magnetic field strength measurements that are within various magnetic field strength windows A magnetic field strength window may be selected as a vehicle-detection baseline. A determination that the vehicle is parked proximate to the parking sensor device within the parking space may be made based on a magnetic field strength measurement being outside of the selected magnetic field strength window.
