  • Patent number: 12352302
    Abstract: A T-bolt locking device provides positive engagement of a T-bolt with a track as well as prevents disengagement from the track when loosening the T-bolt sufficiently to allow movement of an accessory along a slot in the track to a new position. Tightening the accessory onto the T-bolt secures flanges of the head of the T-bolt against an inner surface of the track while fixing the accessory to the track. The T-bolt locking device comprises opposing tabs configured to pass through the slot in the track and receive the flanges of the head of the T-bolt, whereby the locking device is in the engaged position, preventing rotation of the head of the T-bolt in relation to the tabs. When fastening the T-bolt and locking device, if the locking device does not seat against the track surface, this indicates that the T-bolt is under-rotated and not properly engaged with the track because the opposing tabs of the locking device are contacting the upper face of the T-bolt flange.

    Abstract: A computer system animates data visualizations. The system displays a graphical user interface, including a schema region with data field icons representing data fields from a data source and a canvas region displaying a data visualization having visual marks representing data according to visual properties. A user associates a data field icon, representing a data field, with a visual property of the visual marks. In response, the system modifies the data visualization so that the visual property of each visual mark is displayed according to data values of the data field. A user associates a second data field icon, representing a second data field, with a second visual property of the visual marks. The second visual property specifies a nonstop animation format. In response, the system modifies the data visualization to animate the visual marks according to the second visual property and data values for the second data field.

  • Patent number: 12353547
    Abstract: A computing system is configured for detecting anomalies in deployment configurations of container images at a container network. One or more datasets associated with deployment configurations of a container imager are collected, and a plurality of features are extracted based on the one or more datasets for an ID of the container image. A probability score is then generated based on the plurality of features, using a machine-learning model trained on datasets associated with historical deployment configurations of the container image that have been performed via the container orchestration service. The probability score indicates a probability of whether the deployment configurations of the container image are anomalous or not anomalous when compared historical deployment configurations of the container image. An allow list is generated that includes container images and their respective IDs that have a majority of their deployment configurations that are not anomalous.

  • Patent number: 12356117
    Abstract: The disclosed techniques provide promotion of engagement by transitioning viewing perspectives to a temporary viewing perspective showing clusters of group activity. A system shows each person a view of a large virtual environment, e.g., in a stadium full of representations of meeting attendees. Each person sees the virtual environment from a point of view originating from each person's representation, e.g., a first-person avatar view. When a group activity meets one or more conditions, the system determines parameters of a temporary perspective view from a point-of-view of a virtual camera based on the positions of people in a cluster of representations. The parameters of the temporary perspective view can be selected to show a threshold number of representations found in a cluster in a virtual environment. The system can then transition the view of each member of the group from a first-person perspective to the point-of-view of the virtual camera.

    Abstract: A magnetic switch can be configured to have or provide a variable, user-selectable radial flux pattern. In an example, the switch comprises a magnetized outer structure and a magnetized inner structure provided at least partially inside of the magnetized outer structure. In an example, at least one of the magnetized inner and outer structures is rotatable relative to the other one of the magnetized inner and outer structures about an axis of rotation that is common to the magnetized outer structure and magnetized inner structure. The radial flux pattern can extend away from the common axis of rotation and can vary in strength according to a relative position of the magnetized inner and outer structures. In other examples, the switch can comprise multiple layers of magnetized structures.
