Abstract: A video monitoring system can include multiple collectors to receive video beacon data from multiple video monitoring interface modules. At least one beacon stream is connected to receive data from multiple collectors. A processing module receives the beacon stream and provides a real-time event stream used for real-time data analysis and a video view stream used for long-term data analysis.

Abstract: A wagering game system includes a peripheral device with a peripheral device display and at least one processor configured to execute at least one application to display information on the peripheral device display. The system also includes a wagering game terminal with a terminal display configured to display a wagering game and a player-accessible interface configured to allow a player to communicatively couple the peripheral device to the wagering game terminal. The at least one application includes a wagering game application relating to the wagering game displayed on the terminal display of the wagering game terminal, and the at least one processor of the peripheral device executes the wagering application to display, on the peripheral device display, wagering game information relating to the wagering game.

Abstract: Improved RDAP systems, RDAP services, and RDAP methods identify users and clients and keep track of their RDAP activities. The RDAP systems, services, and methods analyze the activities of a user (or a client) and detect or determine whether or not the user is engaging in undesirable, malicious, or otherwise abnormal activities. If so, the RDAP systems, services, and methods take action to reduce, eliminate, or otherwise mitigate the undesirable, malicious, or abnormal activities of the user.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for identifying a paddle region. One of these method includes generating a map of a paddle region for a paddler of an aquatic device based on weather, nautical conditions, experience level of the paddler, and the duration of the trip; and presenting the map to the user on a computer device.

Abstract: Support wires can be used to hold up light tiles to provide a lightweight display system or technique.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems and methods for allowing a single representation of a trigger for payment across different environments using machine readable codes. A machine readable code may be encoded with a URL and information about a product to which the machine readable code is attached. A first electronic device may be able to scan and decode the machine readable code into first recognizable product information using a complaint application. The compliant application may populate a first form on the first electronic device for a first transaction with the recognizable product information without having to access a server. A non-compliant application on a second electronic device will launch a browser using the URL and provide the unrecognizable product information to the server for decoding. The server will decode the unrecognizable product information into a second recognizable product information that may be used to populate a second form for a second transaction.

Abstract: Methods and systems for verifying whether a submission of a request is likely from a human user or an automated program are described. A request may be received from a user device. A human challenge-response test adapted for displaying on the user device is displayed on the user device. Upon viewing the human challenge-response test, the user enters the user's solution to the human challenge-response test on the user device. A response hash value is created based on the user's solution. The response hash value is sent to a computing device for verification.

Abstract: A system for inspecting railroad rail using phased array ultrasonic technology measures the time of flight of ultrasonic signals at locations across the rail head to determine the wear profile of the rail. The rail wear profile is then used to adjust the focal laws of the phased array ultrasonic probes to dynamically compensate for changes in the rail profile as the inspection vehicle moves along the rails.

Abstract: A system for inspecting railroad rail using phased array ultrasonic technology includes both high-speed and high-resolution inspection modes that obviate the need for an operator to dismount the truck to perform detail inspection. In high-speed inspection mode, the phased array probes operate at fixed angles with respect to the rail to identify potential rail defects as the vehicle moves along the track. The vehicle can then return to the location of a potential rail defect and switch to a high-resolution inspection mode in which the phased array probes sweep over a range of beam angles at the location of a potential rail defect.

Abstract: An immersive video system includes a display, a sensor that provides information about a user's location relative to the display, a projector capable of projecting images onto the user, and a processor in communication with the display, the sensor, and the projector. The processor manipulates the images projected onto the user based on user location data from the sensor.

Abstract: Network traffic is monitored to detect attempted inter-network communications, including attempts by devices internal to the network to communicate with resources external to the network and attempts by devices external to the network to establish VPN sessions with resources internal to the network. Upon detecting an attempted inter-network communication, the device responsible for initiating such communication is identified. Then, it is determined whether the identified device is running a valid protection agent. If so, the attempted inter-network communication is permitted. If not, the attempted inter-network communication is blocked in compliance with a network security policy and the identified device is prompted to download and install a protection agent from a designated storage location, or to activate a previously installed protection device. The prompt may include a hyperlink for initiating download of the protection agent.
