Abstract: Multi-color flash with image post-processing that uses a camera device with a multi-color flash and implements post-processing to generate images is described. In one aspect, the multi-color flash with image post-processing may be implemented by a controller configured to control a camera and flashes of at least two different colors. The controller may be configured to cause the camera to acquire a first image of a scene while the scene is being illuminated with the first flash but not the second flash, then cause the camera to acquire a second image of the scene while the scene is being illuminated with the second flash but not the first flash, and generate a final image of the scene in post-processing based on a combination of the first image and the second image.
Abstract: In response to a current block being partitioned into a first partition and a second partition based on a geometric partition mode, a first prediction type for the first partition and a second prediction type for the second partition are determined based on a flag associated with one of intra prediction, inter prediction, and intra block copy (IBC). Each of the first and second prediction types is one of the intra prediction, the inter prediction, and the IBC. Based on the first prediction type, a first prediction mode for the first partition of the current block is determined. Based on the second prediction type, a second prediction mode for the second partition of the current block is determined. The first partition of the current block is reconstructed based on the first prediction mode and the second partition of the current block is reconstructed based on the second prediction mode.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for securing a network, for admitting new nodes into an existing network, and/or for securely forming a new network. As a non-limiting example, an existing node may be triggered by a user, in response to which the existing node communicates with a network coordinator node. Thereafter, if a new node attempts to enter the network, and also for example has been triggered by a user, the network coordinator may determine, based at least in part on parameters within the new node and the network coordinator, whether the new node can enter the network.

Abstract: Systems and apparatuses for access-controlled electrical docking stations that automatically switch power to an electrical system between generator power and utility power are disclosed herein. An illustrative electrical docking station can include a cabinet that houses a circuit breaker, a generator interface to connect generators to the electrical docking station, an Automatic Transfer Switch, and a power supply. The power supply can supply converted DC power and protection to different accessories for the electrical docking station including an alarm, a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA), and a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism can be configured to lock a door to the generator connectors in a closed position when the ATS is energized by a generator and to not lock the door when the door is in an open position. In some such circumstances, the alarm can shine green or provide an audible alarm and shine red respectively.

Abstract: A radioactivity measurement device for measuring an activity level of a radioisotope source is provided. The radioactivity measurement device comprises a housing and a self-powered detector. The housing comprises an outer shell and an inner shell, wherein the inner shell is adapted to house an insertable radioisotope source, and wherein the outer shell and the inner shell are configured to form a hollow annular region. The self-powered detector, positioned within the hollow annular region of the housing, comprises at least one tubular emitter configured to provide a source of electron emission proportional to a radioisotope activity level of the insertable radioisotope source and at least one tubular collector configured to sink the electron emission. A radioactivity level measurement system comprising at least one radioactivity measurement device, a shipping cask incorporating the radioactivity level measurement system and a method for shipping the shipping cask are also provided.

Abstract: A system and method upwards ink deposit onto a substrate in existing printing systems. The system provides for multiple orientations of the print head including jetting in the vertical (or generally upwards) direction to mark a substrate. The system allows the ink jetting to be easily integrated into existing converting or printing processes without the need to add auxiliary web transporting devices such as a turn bar since the print head is jetting the pigment-based ink sets vertically as illustrated in the document provided. To jet vertically the ink viscosity needs to be closely controlled utilizing in line ink heating systems that are deployed throughout the ink supply circuit. The system measures the difference between meniscus and pressure with a predetermined amount of heat applied to the system using in line/integrated heating devices in order to accomplish a vertical jet at speed.
Abstract: An interconnection scheme between a filter cartridge and its corresponding manifold whereby a magnetic shear force is introduced to remove a blocking mechanism that would otherwise prohibit attachment. The magnetic shear force may also be employed to activate or deactivate a switch or valve, or engage or disengage an engagement mechanism relative to other components upon interconnection. The magnetic shear force is generated by complementary correlated magnet structures moved into close proximity to one another. The interconnection scheme may be a linear or rotational attachment of the filter cartridge with respect to the manifold. A valve assembly utilizing magnetic shear force may be employed to activate a bypass action between a manifold ingress port and egress port, thereby allowing water to flow when a filter cartridge is removed from the manifold and directing water to the filter cartridge when the valve assembly is activated.
Abstract: Systems and methods for threat evaluation and data collection are described herein. An example method may commence with collecting, by a wearable device, sensor data from one or more sensors installed on the wearable device. The wearable device may be worn by a user and be communicatively coupled to a central data portal and one or more external sources. The method may include receiving external sensor data from the one or more external sources. The method may continue with processing the sensor data and the external sensor data to evaluate a user state. The user state may be indicative of at least one physical threat to the user or at least one medical condition of the user. The method may further include transmitting the user state to the central data portal. The central data portal may be configured to process the user state for storage and visualization.
