  • Publication number: 20240068197
    Abstract: A loader can include a lift arm structure coupled to a frame. The lift arm structure can move between a fully-lowered position and a fully-raised position and can include a lift arm and a connecting link. A first end of the connecting link can be pivotally coupled to the frame at a first pivot point and the lift arm can be pivotally coupled to a second end of the connecting link a second pivot point. The lift arm structure can further include a lift actuator configured to pivot the lift arm about the second pivot point and an extension actuator configured to pivot the connecting link about the first pivot point. The extension and lift actuators can be controlled to move the lift arm along a variety of travel paths between any two points within a lift envelope of the lift arm structure.

  • Publication number: 20230186780
    Abstract: Example embodiments may relate to a system, method, apparatus, and computer readable media configured for monitoring a user performing various athletic movements and generating performance characteristics based on the data corresponding to such athletic movements. Users may also be encouraged to participate in athletic challenges or competitions against other users or groups of users. In addition, athletic movement data for multiple persons can be collected at a central location, and subsequently displayed to a user at a desired remote location, so that the user can compare his or her athletic activities to others.

  • Publication number: 20170187704
    Abstract: A token-verifiable proxy uploader is disclosed. A token request may be transmitted from an end-user communication device for requesting an upload token from a hosted services server that is configured to authorize transmission of a first media file to a hosted proxy server. The upload token may be transmitted to the end-user communication device. Validation of the user of the end-user communication device may be conducted without the end-user device providing any credentials to the media sharing site and in which the end-user device is does not transmit any credentials specific to the media sharing site as part of the validation. The token validation call may be in response to the hosted proxy server receiving the upload token and either: (1) the first media file from the end-user communication device; or (2) a request from the end-user communication device to upload the first media file to the hosted proxy server.

  • Patent number: 7742873
    Abstract: A navigation guidance system is provided which provides direction information from a remote server to a mobile user unit for guiding user to a desired destination. The navigation guidance system maintains time-related models for traffic speeds expected on road segments of a road database. By maintaining such time-related models, the system can more accurately provide the user with road guidance instructions to arrive at a chosen destination by a given time. The system can also provide more accurate route guidance information to a destination over different routes, even during rush hour or at off peak times. These time related models can be changed as a result of changing traffic patterns or as a result of an incident on a road segment. In a preferred embodiment, therefore, the system continuously monitors each calculated route and advise the users of alternative routes or of updated departure or arrival times as appropriate.
