In a system and method for detecting carbon dioxide in an enclosed volume, a CO2 detection system is triggered to awaken from a deep sleep state. Once awake, the system queries system sensors to determine the current system parameters, including current CO2 level and temperature. Current and expected CO2 decay rates are calculated, and the system determines whether the current CO2 decay rate is within an expected normal range for an unoccupied enclosed volume. If the volume is static, i.e., not moving, and the CO2 rate is rising and the temperature is rising, a series of alerts are sent to contacts previously set up by the user. If the alerts are not cleared by a user, emergency management personnel are notified.

This disclosure relates generally to systems and methods of translating between Universal Serial Bus (USB) and synchronous serial protocols. In one embodiment, an apparatus includes an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) configured to operate in a multi-protocol generic mode and in an adaptive clock mode. The ASIC is configured to implement a multi-protocol generic command processor in the multi-protocol generic mode where the ASIC is operable to be commanded so as to execute a generic bus command that converts between the USB protocol and any commanded synchronous serial protocol. Furthermore, the ASIC can synchronize the execution of the generic bus command with an externally generated clock signal on the synchronous serial side when the ASIC is also provided in the adaptive clock mode. In this manner, a computer device with a USB port can use the ASIC as a bridge for data communications with a radio having a synchronous serial port.

A handheld injector is provided for injecting liquid, such as flavoring or basting material, into meat or poultry. The injector includes a pistol-shaped housing which encloses a battery-powered motor for constant-rate delivery of liquid from a peristaltic pump. The injector also includes a fluid conduit within the housing through which liquid is pumped from a reservoir of liquid to a needle for injection into the meat.
