The method may also include processing the transfer via the transfer gateway and transmitting a completion notification to a mobile device associated with the mobile number and to the smartglasses.

Abstract: Disclosed are examples of systems, apparatus, methods and computer program products for batch job processing using a database system. In some implementations, a data object relationship structure of a first record can be identified. Based on a type of data dependency of the data object relationship structure, a first record and a second record can be determined to be associated. A first batch number can be assigned to the first record and the second record. A first batch job can be defined. It can be determined that a third record is not associated with the first record. A second batch number can be assigned to the third record and a second batch job can be defined.

Abstract: A robot uses types of behavior such as approach, follow, avoid, and so forth to move about an environment and interact with a user. An occupancy map provides information about obstacles in the environment. A predicted trajectory of the user is determined that is indicative of expected locations and confidence of those expected locations. The predicted trajectory may be based on the user's movement and the occupancy map. Based on the predicted trajectory and the occupancy map, a target point and a path to the target point is determined. The path may also be based on a proxemic cost map that specifies how regions with respect to the user may be traversed.

Abstract: Described herein is a system and techniques for classification of subjects within image information. In some embodiments, a set of subjects may be identified within image data obtained at two different points in time. For each of the subjects in the set of subjects, facial landmark relationships may be assessed at the two different points in time to determine a difference in facial expression. That difference may be compared to a threshold value. Additionally, contours of each of the subjects in the set of subjects may be assessed at the two different points in time to determine a difference in body position. That difference may be compared to a different threshold value. Each of the subjects in the set of subjects may then be classified based on the comparison between the differences and the threshold values.
