A fuel cell catalyst material includes metal catalyst particles formed of a metal material and a carbon-based coating composition at least partially coating at least some of the metal catalyst particles. The carbon-based coating composition includes a carbon network. The carbon-based coating composition is doped with a dopant. The carbon-based coating composition includes a number of defects formed by one or more vacated carbon atoms in the carbon network. The carbon-based coating composition is made from a non-aromatic carbon molecule.

A water treatment system centrally communicates and controls one or more water treatment devices to regulate the use of the one or more water treatment devices. The water treatment system is configured to enable a localized, on-demand supply of purified water throughout a building or a network of buildings. The water treatment system may control a degree of purity (e.g., water hardness or concentration of dissolved salts) via mixing of purified and unpurified water streams in a controllable ratio (e.g., via one or more controllable valves or one or more tunable water softening units).

A proton exchange membrane fuel cell includes an anode catalyst layer, a cathode catalyst layer, a proton exchange membrane separating the anode catalyst layer from the cathode catalyst layer, an oxygen inlet configured to supply oxygen to the cathode catalyst layer, and a hydrogen inlet separate from the oxygen inlet and configured to supply hydrogen to the anode catalyst layer. The fuel cell is operable to convert the hydrogen from the hydrogen inlet to hydrogen ions at the anode catalyst layer and to produce an H2O byproduct at the cathode catalyst layer where the oxygen reacts with the hydrogen ions. The fuel cell includes a water outlet for the H2O byproduct that is separate from the oxygen inlet.

A method of producing a coating. The method includes determining a surface defect region of a coating on a substrate and a location of the surface defect. The method further includes selectively and locally correcting the surface defect by applying a corrective coating region to the surface defect region based on the location of the surface defect via spatial atomic layer deposition (SALD) using an SALD reactor.

Techniques describe apparatus and method for generating computed results based on sensor readings for detecting features, such as edges, corners etc. The sensor apparatus may include a sensor element array that includes a plurality of sensor elements. The sensor elements may be arranged in a 2-dimensional array, such as columns and rows. The sensor elements may be capable of generating sensor reading based on environmental conditions. The sensor apparatus may include a dedicated computer vision (CV) computation hardware in in-pixel circuitry, peripheral circuitry or dedicated microprocessor coupled to the sensor element array and configured to receive output from one or more of sensor elements. The dedicated CV computation hardware may include configurable blocks for detecting features using CV operations, wherein the configurable blocks may be configured to switch between multiple CV operations, such as linear binary pattern (LBP) and/or histogram of signed gradient (HSG) computer vision operations.

Techniques describe computing computer vision (CV) features based on sensor readings from a sensor and detecting macro-features based on the CV features. The sensor may include a sensor element array that includes a plurality of sensor elements. The sensor may also include in-pixel circuitry coupled to the sensor elements, peripheral circuitry and/or a dedicated microprocessor coupled to the sensor element array. The in-pixel circuitry, the peripheral circuitry or the dedicated microprocessor may include computation structures configured to perform analog or digital operations representative of a multi-pixel computation for a sensor element (or block of sensor elements), based on sensor readings generated by neighboring sensor elements in proximity to the sensor element, and to generate CV features. The dedicated microprocessor may process the CV features and detect macro-features. Furthermore, in certain embodiments, the dedicated microprocessor may be coupled to a second microprocessor through a wired or wireless interface.
