Abstract: A cruise control system for a vehicle having an engine and a power take-off throttle control capable of controlling the speed of the engine includes a cruise control device in communication with a speedometer of the vehicle and the power take-off throttle control. The cruise control device includes a processor configured for receiving a user selection of a set ground speed, determining a current ground speed of the vehicle, via communication with the speedometer, comparing the current ground speed with the set ground speed, and taking further action to maintain the current ground speed close to the set ground speed. The further action taken by the processor may include transmitting an acceleration signal or deceleration signal to the power take-off throttle control to increase or decrease a speed of the engine if the current ground speed is determined to be lower or higher than the set ground speed.

Abstract: The system generally includes a crosspoint switch in the local data collection system having multiple inputs and multiple outputs including a first input connected to the first sensor and a second input connected to the second sensor. The multiple outputs include a first output and a second output configured to be switchable between a condition in which the first output is configured to switch between delivery of the first sensor signal and the second sensor signal and a condition in which there is simultaneous delivery of the first sensor signal from the first output and the second sensor signal from the second output. Each of multiple inputs is configured to be individually assigned to any of the multiple outputs. Unassigned outputs are configured to be switched off producing a high-impedance state.

Abstract: Integrated management of connected assets that utilize different technologies and that are located across disparate wireless communications networks is facilitated herein. A method can comprise evaluating, by a system comprising a processor, first data associated with a first device operable with a first computing platform and second data associated with a second device operable with a second computing platform different from the first computing platform. The method can also comprise transforming, by the system, at least a first portion of the first data and at least a second portion of the second data into third data. The third data can be compatible with the first data and the second data. Further, the method can comprise rendering, by the system, the third data as an integrated view of at least the first portion of the first data and at least the second portion of the second data.

Abstract: Implementations generally relate to locking a camera onto a sub-region to capture images of the sub-region with a moving camera. In some implementations, a method includes determining a first region in a scene detected by a camera while the camera is in a first physical position. The method further includes receiving user input to target a sub-region within the first capture region of the scene and capturing the first image of the sub-region while the camera is in the first physical position. The first image is displayed in a fixed orientation on a preview portion of a display screen. The camera is moved to a second physical position and a second capture region of the scene is detected. The method further includes capturing a second image is of the sub-region and displaying it in the fixed orientation on the preview portion of the display screen. The second image is effective to inform a user of whether capture of the sub-region is altered by camera movement.
Abstract: Display systems with a single plate optical waveguide and independently adjustable micro display arrays and related methods are provided. A method includes coupling: a first light portion received from the first micro display array to a first input grating region of the optical waveguide, a second light portion received from the second micro display array to a second input grating region of the optical waveguide, and a third light portion received from the third micro display array to a third input grating region of the optical waveguide. The method further includes directing: a first diffracted portion of the first light portion to a first expansion grating, a second diffracted portion of the second light portion to a second expansion grating, and a third diffracted portion of the third light portion to a third expansion grating. The method further includes using a single output grating outputting combined light.
Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for the display of a multi-screen virtual billboard.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to a technique for processing data based on touch events on a touch sensitive device. A first touch event is detected indicating a selection of a value for an attribute using a touch input device from a first portion of a touch sensitive display screen of the touch sensitive device. A second touch event is detected indicating a change in position of the touch input device from the first portion to a second portion of the touch sensitive display screen of the touch sensitive device. In response to detecting the second touch event, a query is determined for searching a database based on the value for the attribute.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to synchronizing data. In aspects, properties are synchronized from an organization property store to a cloud property store and/or vice versa. The list of properties to synchronize may change based on the cloud services to which the organization subscribes, changes to the cloud services, or for other reasons. Furthermore, the list of properties to synchronize may be limited to certain objects of the organization which may also change over time.
Abstract: Methods and systems are described for delaying presentation of an update to a user interface. In one aspect, first update information is received for sending to a display device to update a previously updated, existing visual component. A specified visibility condition is detected as not being met. In response to detecting the visibility condition is not met, the sending of the first update information is deferred. The visibility condition is detected as met. In response to detecting the visibility condition is met, the sending of the first update information to update the visual component is performed.
Abstract: Original data that represents a real-world object or activity and organized along three or more dimensions is received. The original data is represented as a product of several multipliers including a sparse core, such that the sparse core has fewer non-zero values than a tensor representation of the original data, and one or more unitary matrix multipliers. Modified data is generated based on the original data using the multipliers. This includes compressing, or reconstructing missing elements in, the tensor representation of the original data, such that the modified data provides a description of the real-world object or activity that is less complete or more complete, respectively, relative to the original data.
