    摘要: The present invention is directed to a battery management system for managing one or more second-life battery packs. The system comprises one or more buffer modules. Each buffer module is configured for coupling to a corresponding battery pack. Each buffer module is operatively configured to determine a type of battery pack upon detection of the corresponding battery pack being coupled thereto. Each buffer module includes a battery pack controller for controlling charge and discharge cycles for each battery pack based on the type of battery pack as determined by the corresponding buffer module. Each buffer module includes a bi-directional DC to DC converter for converting a voltage input from the corresponding battery pack to a predetermined system output voltage.

    摘要: The present invention provides an object recognition system for recognising objects within an environment, including: tags, each tag being associated with a respective object, each tag including: a tag memory to store an object model being a computational model indicative of a relationship between the respective object and a shape encoding layer; a sensing system including: a sensing device to sense the environment; a sensing system memory to store a sensing device model being a computational model indicative of a relationship between sensor data captured using the sensing device and the shape encoding layer; sensing system processing devices to: receive object models from a transceiver; retrieve the sensing device model from the sensing system memory; acquire sensor data indicative of the environment from the sensing device; and analyse the sensor data using the sensing device model and the object models to thereby recognise the objects within the environment.

    摘要: A process of forming an electrode interconnection between at least two adjacent unit devices in an integrated multilayer thin-film electronic device comprising: providing an intermediary device that comprises: a first electrode layer on a thin film substrate comprising a first patterned coating that includes at least two spaced apart first electrode sections of adjacent unit devices; a first functional layer comprising a substantially continuous coating over the first electrode layer; and a second functional layer comprising a second patterned coating on the first functional layer comprising at least two spaced apart functional sections, each functional section positioned on the first functional layer to overlay a portion of one of the first electrode sections so to define a gap portion between adjacent functional sections that includes a portion of that first electrode section and the first functional layer; and applying a second electrode layer over the second functional layer as a third patterned coating that includes at least two spaced apart second electrode sections of adjacent unit devices, each second electrode section being positioned to overlay at least one functional section of the second functional layer and a portion of an adjoining gap portion that includes at least one portion of the first electrode section of an adjacent unit device, the third patterned coating being formed using a solution including a conductive species and at least a first solvent, wherein the first functional layer is soluble in the first solvent and the second functional layer has a low to zero solubility in the first solvent, such that application of the second electrode layer to the gap portion forms at least one electrically conductive path through the first functional layer between the first electrode and the second electrode of adjacent unit devices.
