Abstract: A baby bathing system including a bathing tub, having a reservoir and a bath basin connected to the reservoir by a weir discharging bath water from the reservoir into the bath basin. A baby bath support insert is received within the bath basin downstream of the reservoir, the baby bath support insert having a flexible seat and a base projection projecting from the flexible seat towards the bath basin. The base projection is conformally seated against an interior surface of the bath basin and supports the flexible seat raised from the interior surface of the bath basin with the baby bath support insert received in the bath basin. The base projection includes at least one aperture extending through the base projection and disposed so that bath water from under the flexible seat communicates through the base projection with outer sides of the bath basin.

Abstract: A security server provides dynamic permissions for an enterprise data source. The security server establishes permissions rules for a data source of the enterprise. For example, the permissions rules describe permissions policies applicable to users of the enterprise in given contexts. The security server evaluates the permissions rules in view of a context to produce a dynamic permissions policy for the data source. The context describes the environment of the data source at a point in time (e.g., a current time). The dynamic permissions policy describes permissions of users of the enterprise with respect to the data source and the context. The security server transmits the dynamic permissions policy to the enterprise such that the enterprise is able to implement the dynamic permissions policy at the data source.

Additionally, the cover includes a device (such as a light source, circuit, port, or sensor) in communication with the first transmission tab and the second transmission tab.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods, devices and systems for associating consumable data with an assay consumable used in a biological assay. Provided are assay systems and associated consumables, wherein the assay system adjusts one or more steps of an assay protocol based on consumable data specific for that consumable. Various types of consumable data are described, as well as methods of using such information in the conduct of an assay by an assay system.

Abstract: The technology disclosed herein provides a method including determining an acceptable parameter rate for a dual reader storage device having dual readers, identifying one of the dual readers as the preferable reader, comparing an actual parameter rate of the storage device to the acceptable parameter rate of the storage device, and in response to determining that the actual parameter rate is below the acceptable parameter rate, operating the storage device using only the preferable reader. In one implementation, the parameter rate is bit-error rate (BER) of the dual readers.

Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method of tracking telemetry data at a financial computing system is presented. The system and method includes receiving an electronic message that includes a payment transaction originating from a payment terminal, and associating a unique transaction identifier to the payment transaction. Telemetry data for the payment transaction is received from payment processing applications through a telemetry interface and aggregated into a data store. The aggregated telemetry data associated with the unique identifier is presented on a user interface by the financial computing system.

Abstract: A wireless device receives one or more messages comprising spatial relation configuration parameters of a physical uplink control channel. The configuration parameters indicate a plurality of reference signal (RS) sets. An RS set of the plurality of RS sets comprises one or more RSs. A medium access control control element, activating the RS set of the plurality of RS sets, is received. A downlink control information, indicating an RS of the RS set, is received. A spatial domain transmission filter, for the physical uplink control channel, is determined based on based on the RS. Uplink control information is transmitted, via the physical uplink control channel, based on the spatial domain transmission filter.

Abstract: Image transformation for use in a hybrid distribution architecture with improved performance characteristics is provided herein. The hybrid distribution architecture provides content to clients via a dual source system using a central cloud service and a Content Distribution Network, which uses the cloud service as its source. A client that requests a new rendition of an image provided by a chosen source of the hybrid distribution architecture will have that request handled by the source, and the source may maintain that rendition for future provision. By allowing the client to choose the source and letting that source handle the request, rather than requiring a central service hand the request, the amount of data needed to be transmitted is reduced and the speed of provision of content, modified or not, is improved for the client.

Abstract: A profilometer provides, to a controller, a feedback signal indicative of topography of an exposed surface of an object that is being manufactured by a 3d printer. The profilometer includes an emitter and a camera. The emitter illuminates a region of surface of the object with a pattern having an edge that defines a boundary of an illuminated portion of the surface. The camera receives an image that transitions between a first state in which the edge is visible in the image at a location that is indicative of the surface's depth and a second state in which the edge is not visible at all. From this second state, the controller obtains information representative of a depth of the surface.
