    Abstract: A virtual reality training and evaluation system may comprise a visual display device, one or more user input devices, one or more computer processors, a memory, and a network communication device. Computer-executable instructions are stored in the memory and configured to cause the one or more computer processors to execute a virtual reality training program that simulates a virtual environment displayed on the visual display device. A user is typically prompted to complete a task within the virtual environment. The task may be an electrical, gas, or water construction, maintenance, or service task. User interactions with the virtual environment in order to complete the task are received via the one or more user input devices. The user's performance of the task (and related subtasks) is typically monitored and compared to defined evaluation criteria. Thereafter, the user may be provided with an evaluation.

  • Publication number: 20240361386
    Abstract: A method is provided for determining a decoupling capacitance of a device under test (DUT) interface circuitry, which is between automated testing equipment (ATE) and a DUT. The method: disconnects the DUT from the DUT interface circuitry; connects a Device Under Testing Power Supply (DPS) resource as a DUT Power Supply to the DUT interface circuitry; sets a current clamp of the DPS resource to a test application level; turns off the DPS resource voltage; sets the DPS resource to a force voltage mode; sets the current clamp to a minimum current level; turns on the output; waits a period of time to allow the decoupling capacitance to charge; places the DPS resource into a voltage measurement mode; adds any delay time to the period of time; measures the voltage before the capacitance is fully charged; and determines the decoupling capacitance.

  • Publication number: 20240361281
    Abstract: Method and system are disclosed for characterizing and quantifying composite laminate structures. The method and system take a composite laminate of unknown ply stack composition and sequence and determine various information about the individual plies, such as ply stack, orientation, microstructure, and type. The method and system distinguishes between weave types that exhibit similar planar stiffness behaviors, but which produce different failure mechanisms. Individual ply information then is used to derive the laminate bulk properties from externally provided constitutive properties of the fiber and matrix, including extensional stiffness, bending-extension coupling stiffness, bending stiffness, and the like. The laminate bulk properties are then used to generate a probabilistic failure envelope for the composite laminate.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing variable trick-play mode playback of media content in accordance with embodiments of the invention are disclosed. A playback device stores images of the media content associated with presentation times and marker information for the media content that indicates the presentation time of moments of interest. When a trick-play mode is invoked, the playback device determines a presentation time of a next marker in the playback. The playback device determines whether the current presentation time of the playback is within a specified range of the presentation time of the next marker and adjusts the speed of the trick-play playback based on the determination. The next frame to present is determined based on the adjusted speed of the trick-play playback and displayed.

    Abstract: Provided herein are system, method and/or computer program product embodiments, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof for controlling access to a website. In some embodiments, a user scans a machine-readable indicia with their mobile device to access a backend redirect page. The backend redirect page receives the access request, generates a unique session identifier, and configures a dynamic address based on the unique session identifier. The backend redirect page redirects the mobile device to an intake page of a website using the dynamic address for that page. Whenever the user attempts to load a page in the website using the corresponding dynamic address, an intake backend for frontend verifies the validity of the unique session identifier associated with the dynamic address. A session monitor tracks the amount of time since the unique session identifier was generated and invalidates the unique session identifier after a predetermined amount of time has passed.
