One note on Raddysh that I'm sure is meaningful to his family: He's returning to the #NYR lineup after being scratched in each of the last 8 games and will get a chance to finish the season against his brother Darren. This comes at the end of a tough year in which they lost their father, Dwayne, following his battle with pancreatic cancer.
#NYR Jonathan Quick says he’s known for a bit that this will be his last season in the NHL.
“With the ups and downs the season, you don't really want to admit it to yourself, you know? So as we kind of got towards the end of the season here, I let Chris [Drury] know and Sully know. Just so they can plan accordingly. I'm grateful for them. They've helped me out through this process. And let me know games I'm going to start so I can make sure to get the family there and stuff like that.”
BREAKING: The FCC today officially granted @Tesla a waiver allowing it to use Ultra-Wideband (UWB) radio technology for its wireless EV charging system that will be used to wirelessly charge the Cybercab.
Normally, this kind of radio must be handheld and can’t be installed outdoors on fixed equipment. Tesla’s charging pad is fixed and could be outdoors, so they needed an exception.
The FCC said yes because:
• The signal is very low power
• It only turns on briefly while parking
• It works at very short range
• It won’t interfere with other systems
More information from the filing: "The Tesla positioning system is an impulse UWB radio system that enables peer-to-peer communications between a UWB transceiver installed on an electric vehicle (EV) and a second UWB transceiver installed on a ground-level pad — which could be located outdoors — to achieve optimal positioning for the EV to charge wirelessly.
Prior to the UWB operation, the vehicular system uses Bluetooth technology for the vehicle to discover the location of the ground pad and engage in data exchange activities (which is not subject to the waiver).
When the vehicle approaches the ground pad, the UWB transceivers will operate to track the position of the vehicle to determine when the optimal position has been achieved over the pad before enabling wireless power charging."
In its waiver request, Tesla states that the UWB signals occur only briefly when the vehicle approaches the ground pad; and mostly at ground level between the vehicle and the pad, and that the UWB signals are then significantly attenuated by the body of the vehicle positioned over the pad.
@evgolsh hey! using your crestron home bridge plugin, its awesome! is there a way to use "Included Devices" filter in the json so i can use a wild card and only pull in devices w certain names. We have way more than 149 lights :)
#NYR win it in the shootout, with Trocheck and Miller converting their attempts for a 2-1 victory. Rangers have now won three in a row and seven of nine overall.
#NYR Adam Fox, Alexis Lafrenière, Will Cuylle, Jonathan Quick, Jonny Brodzinski and Braden Schneider went over to Ryan Lindgren’s place last night for dinner. Kaapo Kakko came too.
Lindgren picked up some Italian food!
