Abstract: A container having a base and a lid is provided. The lid may be rotatable about a hinge from a closed configuration to an open configuration and may be secured, via one or more latching assemblies. The latch assembly may comprise a latch body, a locking member, a biasing member, and an activating member. The lid may have a handle that has a stowed and a carry position, where the handle may be maintained in the stowed position until acted upon by a first force greater than a threshold force to move the handle from the stowed position to the carry position. Similarly, when in the carry position, the handle may be maintained in the carry position until acted upon by a second force greater than the threshold force to move the handle from the carry position to the stowed position.

Abstract: Various embodiments include a camera with folded optics and lens shifting capabilities. Some embodiments include voice coil motor (VCM) actuator arrangements to provide autofocus (AF) and/or optical image stabilization (OIS) movement. Some embodiments include suspension arrangements.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for analyzing network traffic data to generate complex statistics associated with the network traffic in real-time through parallel processing and data pipelining. In one implementation, a system includes a processor and a memory. The memory stores instructions that cause the processor to generate a plurality of program instances, wherein a first program instance observes the network traffic and uses a plurality of execution threads to distribute portions of the network traffic to additional program instances tasked with generating statistics associated with the network traffic. In other embodiments, a plurality of additional execution threads to the first program instance are tasked with generating the statistics. In either case, the generated statistics are placed into a data pipeline organized into time intervals of generated statistics, wherein the computation of higher-order statistics are computed as the lower-order time intervals are processed.
