  • Publication number: 20200177340
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method is performed. An access point (AP) device may communicate signaling relating to a client device allocation for a location-related measurement. The AP device may transmit a trigger frame. The AP device may receive a response to the trigger frame from a client device. The response may include an uplink orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) transmission. A location-related measurement of the client device may be determined based on the response to the trigger frame.

  • Patent number: 10652599
    Abstract: Techniques, systems, and methods are disclosed to generate messaging to view content on media devices based on predictive factors. Information may be received to trigger one or more predictive factors and then generate a candidate set of offers to view content at a media device based on the information. Based on the one or more predictive factors, confidence values may be determined for each offer in the candidate set of offers. The candidate set of offers may be ranked based on the associated confidence values. Subsequently, presentation of at least one offer of the candidate set of offers may be caused to display in a user interface screen on the media device based on the ranking.

  • Publication number: 20200087858
    Abstract: A device for producing a pattern combination on a clothing includes the following: a rotary screen, a cylindrical jacket surface with a perforation pattern that defines a first pattern component. Material in the liquid or pasty state is pressed through the perforations of the jacket surface of the rotary screen and deposited on the surface of the clothing in order to produce the first pattern component on a surface of the clothing, while the rotary screen, rotating several times about a longitudinal axis thereof, rolls on the surface of the clothing in at least one path that continuously revolves on the surface of the clothing at least once. At least one device produces, synchronously and/or simultaneously, a second pattern component, which device is connected indirectly or directly to the rotary screen. The device for producing the pattern combination also includes a post-run system.

  • Publication number: 20190272720
    Abstract: A security system architecture and method of operation that combines a local security network with control panel and sensors, a central monitoring station (CMS), and a separate operator computer server that provides a web portal for both the homeowner and CMS, that maintains a persistent connection between the control panel and CMS allowing failsafe dual-path signaling. This dual-path signaling technique is extended to provide an effective “smash and grab alarm”, and various approaches to dual-path signal management are disclosed including handshaking, persistent domain monitoring, relayed Operator 3-to-CMS signaling, etc. Improved processes for remotely accessing video are also disclosed along with an improved process for remote control panel configuration, and control panel interfacing with home automation appliances.

  • Patent number: 10392295
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a composite material, particularly a composite material for ceramic tiles, stone cladding, surface tops (e.g. worktops), and the like. The composite materials are typically derived from waste products. The composite materials of the present invention are formed from a glass component and a non-glass mineral component (e.g. ceramics and/or glaze). Generally the composite materials do not require any binders (especially synthetic binders) to hold the materials together. Therefore, the composite materials and products made therefrom are typically recyclable.

  • Publication number: 20190251398
    Abstract: Method, electronic device, and computer readable medium embodiments are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes training a neural network using a first image dataset and a first truth dataset, then using the trained neural network to analyze a second image dataset.

    Abstract: Method, electronic device, and computer readable medium embodiments are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving image data, manipulating the received image data based on a set of transform parameters, and analyzing the manipulated image data to generate metadata. The metadata statistically describes the received image data. The method also includes selecting a neural network from a plurality of neural networks to perform a second analysis, wherein the neural network is selected based on the generated metadata. The method additionally includes performing a second analysis of the received image data by the selected neural network based on the generated metadata to extract information from the received image data.
