Abstract: A method and system are disclosed for locating or otherwise generating positional information for an object, such as but not limited generating positional coordinates for an object attached to an athlete engaging in an athletic event. The positional coordinates may be processed with other telemetry and biometrical information to provide real-time performance metrics while the athlete engages in the athletic event.

Abstract: Systems and methods directed at enhancing the capability of a federated authentication system by configuring the system with extensibility points for adding new account stores and customizing claim transformations. The federated authentication system includes accounts stores, a security token service (STS), and custom claim transformation modules. The account stores are configured to maintain data associated with accounts and to provide security claims in an intermediate format. The STS is configured to retrieve the security claims provided by the account stores and includes built-in transformations for transforming each security claim from the intermediate format to formats associated with resource providers. The STS is further configured to provide extensibility points for custom claim transformations that are not available from the built-in transformations. The custom claim transformation modules are configured to perform at least one custom claim transformation.

Abstract: A system provides single sign-on capabilities for accessing a Web application through a passive client across multiple realms within a federation. A federation refers to different organizations or realms that have employed agreements, standards, and/or cooperative technologies to make user identity and entitlements portable between the organizations. Communications are redirected through a client in one realm to obtain a security token that can allow the resource server in the other realm to authenticate the user for access to the Web application.

Abstract: Systems and methods directed at transforming security claims in a federated authentication system using an intermediate format. The systems and methods described herein are directed at transforming security claims in a federated authentication system using an intermediate format. The federated authentication system includes an identity provider and a resource provider. The identity provider receives a request for information from the resource provider to authenticate an account by an application associated with the resource provider. A security claim associated with the account is retrieved where the security claim is provided by an account store in a format specific to the account store. The security claim is transformed from the account store specific format to an intermediate format. The security claim is then transformed from the intermediate format to a federated format recognized by the resource provider. The transformed security claim is provided in a security token to the resource provider.

Abstract: The present invention provides various improvements in components for optical based moisture sensing systems and to moisture sensing systems incorporating the components. In at least one embodiment an imager sensor based moisture sensing system is provided that is capable of detecting a moisture pattern.

Abstract: The described systems, methods, and data structures are directed at data transfer using Hyper-Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) query strings. A block of data is partitioned into sections. Each section is encoded in a query string of a HTTP message. Each HTTP message is sent to a server by redirecting through a client. Multiple redirected messages are sent until the entire block of data is transferred to the server. The data block may be stored as a cookie on the client so that the data block does not have to persist on any server. Data transfer using HTTP query strings may be implemented to transfer a security token from a security token service (STS) server to an application server.

Abstract: A system for authenticating computer users comprising a single active directory disposed in an intranet, a web server disposed in a DMZ associated with the intranet, and a web client coupled to the web server through an internet connection that is capable of signing on to the web server.
