  • FRAGMENT SERVER DIRECTED DEVICE FRAGMENT CACHING
    Publication number: 20250133127
    Abstract: The media stream delivery system encodes and fragments media streams into numerous media stream fragments maintained on fragment servers. Devices obtain fragments to reconstruct media streams including live real-time media streams for playback on the devices. A device may perform caching of media stream fragments so that particular fragments need not be accessed again from a fragment server. A fragment server or even a content provider can analyze and monitor characteristics of media streams, viewing behavior, content popularity, etc., to identify fragments for caching at the playback devices. Caching indicators along with time period indicators may be included in the media stream fragments.

  • SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR BIFURCATED NAVIGATION CONTROL OF A MANIPULATOR CART INCLUDED WITHIN A COMPUTER-ASSISTED MEDICAL SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20250127586
    Abstract: A bifurcated navigation control system is configured to identify a navigation condition associated with a navigation of a component of a computer-assisted medical system component along a path from an initial location to a target location; determine, based on the navigation condition, a propulsion limitation configured to be imposed on operator-provided commands related to a propulsion of the component during the navigation of the component along the path; and direct the component to navigate, in a bifurcated navigation control mode, along at least part of the path from the initial location to the target location. In the bifurcated navigation control mode, the bifurcated navigation control system is configured to autonomously control a steering of the component while allowing operator control of the propulsion of the component based on the operator-provided commands as limited by the propulsion limitation.
