Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method, device and system to efficiently liquefy and isolate a gas from a gaseous mixture. In an embodiment of the present invention, separation of gasses from the atmosphere can be carried out using a cooled surface to separate the gasses from the atmosphere. In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, removal of CO2 from the atmosphere can be carried out by using the method, device and system to efficiently cryogenically separate CO2 from air and capture the CO2 from a gaseous mixture using a surface and release the ‘CO2 lean air’ into the atmosphere and store the captured liquefied CO2.

Abstract: A set of media items accessible to users of a platform is identified, each media item including a reference to one or more objects. In response to a request from a client device associated with a user of the platform for access to a media item, a determination is made of one or more objects referenced by the media item that satisfies one or more criteria based on consumption data associated with the set of media items. The consumption data includes information about a consumption of the set of media items by other users of the platform over a time period. A source indicator associated with the determined objects is obtained. A user interface of the client device is updated to include, with the media item, an annotation of the objects to indicate that the objects are associated with the source indicator.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and media for automated compliance determination of content items are provided.

Abstract: This disclosure describes an unmanned aerial vehicle (“UAV”) configured to autonomously deliver items of inventory to various destinations. The UAV may receive inventory information and a destination location and autonomously retrieve the inventory from a location within a materials handling facility, compute a route from the materials handling facility to a destination and travel to the destination to deliver the inventory.

Abstract: Technology is disclosed for annotating and source linking the objects displayed in an image. An example method including detecting, by a processing device, an object in an image; associating the object in the image with a source indicator; annotating, by the processing device, the image to indicate the object is associated with the source indicator; receiving a user selection of the object in the image; and identifying a source based on the source indicator and on contextual data associated with the user selection, wherein the source comprises information about the object.

Abstract: A transaction is pre-staged by providing transaction preferences, such as a financial instrument, a transaction type, and a transaction amount, to a user device. The user device captures a visual code at a terminal, such as an ATM. The visual code includes terminal attributes, including a signed hash and call-back URI. The user device authenticates the visual code using the signed hash and requests the transaction through the issuer server. The issuer server creates and sends the card data to the call-back URI. The terminal uses the card data to create a transaction request it routes to through its acquirer server.

Abstract: Encapsulation packages for stent-deployable monitoring devices formed of resonator sensors and allowing for magnetic biasing elements that exhibit a targeted impact on the mechanical characteristics of a stent are provided. Encapsulation packages are formed of different types and include a longitudinal shield and curved end on profile for aligning the shield within the deployable stent, the shield having perforations such that a resonator can be positioned adjacent the perforations for allowing particulate within the stent to collect and be measured by the resonator during deployment.

Abstract: Methods and systems for providing requested media items with supplemental media items customized for requesting users are described herein. A processing device receives a request of a first user for a first media item of a second user. The processing device determines that the first media item of the second user corresponds to a plurality of second media items of the second user. A set of rules is identified on how to select a second media item, from the plurality of second media items, to be integrated with the first media item of the second user, the set of rules being provided by the second user and comprising one or more conditions pertaining to the first user. The second media item is selected from the plurality of second media items based on the identified set of rules.

Abstract: Mechanical vibrations are generated on a frame of an aerial vehicle as a response to operation of the aerial vehicle, such as rotation of motors and/or propellers. Likewise, environmental conditions, such as wind, humidity, etc., may also cause vibrations on the frame of aerial vehicles. These vibrations may be destructive to the aerial vehicle, impact stability of the aerial vehicle, and/or result in audible sounds. Disclosed are systems and methods for measuring and/or predicting the vibrations on the frame of the aerial vehicle, generating anti-vibrations, and outputting those anti-vibrations such that the anti-vibrations modify vibrations on the frame of the aerial vehicle.

Abstract: A retrofit assembly includes a first lighting module, a second lighting module, and a hub positioned between the first lighting module and the second lighting module. When the first lighting module and second lighting module are at least partially received within cavities formed in the hub, longitudinal axes of the first lighting module and the second lighting module are aligned approximately parallel to one another.

Abstract: A system and method for operating an automated aerial vehicle are provided wherein influences of ground effects (e.g., which may increase the effective thrusts of propellers by interfering with the respective airflows) are utilized for sensing the ground or other surfaces. In various implementations, operating parameters of the automated aerial vehicle are monitored to determine when ground effects are influencing the parameters associated with the propellers, which correspondingly indicate proximities to a surface (e.g., the ground). Such ground effect sensing techniques may be utilized as a backup to other sensors (e.g., which may be determined to not be functioning properly and/or may be otherwise inhibited due factors such as to rain, snow, fog, reflections, bright sunlight, etc.).

Abstract: This disclosure describes an automated mobile vehicle that includes one or more distance determining elements configured to detect the presence of objects and to cause the automated mobile vehicle to alter its path to avoid the object. For example, a distance determining element may be incorporated into one or more of the motors of the automated mobile vehicle and configured to determine a distance to an object. Based on the determined distance, a path of the automated mobile vehicle may be altered.
