Abstract: Systems and methods for producing remote assistance via augmented reality (AR) by utilizing a field service device and a remote expert device are disclosed herein. An example method includes a field service device generating a non-AR video feed, and sending the non-AR video feed to a remote expert device. A user of the remote expert device then annotates the non-AR video feed by drawing a scribble pattern onto the non-AR video feed. The remote expert device then sends the scribble pattern to the field service device as an array of coordinates. The field service device then maps the received scribble pattern to a plane to create an AR scribble pattern. The field service device then creates an AR video feed based on the AR scribble pattern.

Abstract: A method in a server of generating assistive data includes: receiving, at the server from a client device, a request for assistive data, the request including (i) client contextual data, and (ii) a type indicator corresponding to a first request type or a second request type; selecting between an automated response mechanism, when the type indicator corresponds to the first request type, and a manual response mechanism when the type indicator corresponds to the second request type; responsive to selecting the automated response mechanism, retrieving automated assistive data from a repository based on the client contextual data; and returning the automated assistive data to the client device.

Abstract: A method, device and system for picking items in a warehouse a method of controlling picking of items in a warehouse is provided. The method comprises: receiving, at processor of a mobile device, using a communication interface of the mobile device, location sensitive data associated with at least one item to be picked within the warehouse, the mobile device comprising the processor, the communication interface and a display; and, rendering, at the display using the processor, instructions for picking the at least one item in the warehouse, the instructions including the location sensitive data, the instructions updated to emphasize different subsets of the location sensitive data based on a current location of the mobile device relative to a location of the at least one item in the warehouse.

Abstract: A method and a system for operating a radio network controller (RNC) in a wireless communication system. The RNC generates a group database comprising a plurality of transmitting groups and a resultant Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) associated with the transmissions received from each member within each transmitting group meets a pre-defined SINR threshold. The RNC tests the received SQMs associated with a new transmitting subscriber unit with the resultant SINR associated with each transmitting group to assign the new subscriber unit to at least one transmitting group on determining that the new transmitting subscriber unit could be added to the at least one transmitting group without reducing a resultant SINR associated with the at least one transmitting group below the pre-defined SINR threshold.

Abstract: In a digital voice communication system, a transmitting radio (100/102) checks for activity on a channel. If activity is not detected on the channel, the transmitting radio transmits at least one voice frame on the channel. If activity is detected on the channel, the transmitting radio temporarily buffers the at least one voice frame and waits a period of time prior to re-checking the channel for activity. If activity is still detected on the channel, the transmitting radio repeats the step of waiting until activity is no longer detected on the channel; otherwise, the transmitting radio transmits the at least one voice frame that was temporarily buffered.

Abstract: A radio programming device (100) that allows for operating mode information (Table 2) as preprogrammed in a radio (101) to be accessed and compared against a mode name alias data base (Table 1). When matches are found, the appropriate mode name alias is provided to the radio, and the radio stores it and uses it thereafter when operating in the corresponding operating mode.

Abstract: A decryption device wherein an encryption/decryption module can be operated at various clock speeds, and wherein an associated processor controls these clock speeds depending upon the moment to moment processing interrelationship between the encryption/decryption module and the processor. In particular, when loading a new key into the encryption module, or when utilizing the encryption module to decrypt an encrypted new key, the processor alters the usual clock rate for the encryption module.
