  • Publication number: 20220237213
    Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for aliased data insertions/retrieval for key-value stores. In aspects, a data set comprising a primary key, one or more secondary keys (“aliases”), and data values may be received by a data storage system. The system may allocate an internal identifier to the primary key and store the internal identifier and the primary key in a first table. Each of the secondary keys may be used to create a key-value pair comprising the secondary key and the internal identifier. The key-value pair(s) may be stored in the first table with the corresponding primary key. The internal identifier and the data values may be stored in a second table. Subsequently, the primary or secondary key may be used to interrogate the first table for the internal identifier. The internal identifier may then be used to interrogate the second table for the data values.

  • Publication number: 20220233285
    Abstract: A system and method for creating a model of a patient's mandible and any teeth supported from the mandible and manipulating the mandible relative to anatomical features of the patient's maxilla. The system uses markers positioned on the mandible and on the maxilla to create a functional mandibular axis that approximates an axis through the condyles of the patient. The functional mandibular axis and geometric and anatomical information about the patient's upper and lower jaw are then used to create prostheses for the patient. The system is also used for making corrections to the prosthesis.

  • Publication number: 20220233945
    Abstract: A kit for playing a game on ice. The kit includes two or more game discs and a set of instructions for playing the game. The game discs are shaped to enable their passage over imperfections in the ice. Specifically, the game discs are tapered, such as with beveling but not limited to that. The taper reduces the chance that the disc will be stopped or diverted as it travels over the ice. The game requires the formation of two holes spaced from one another in the hole without extending through the ice. The game is played by sliding the discs toward the holes and scoring based on disc entry into the hole as well as closest proximity to the hole.

  • Publication number: 20220236495
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and method for connecting an optical fiber to a ferrule. The system and method facilitate the process of epoxying the optical fiber in a manner that avoid inadvertently adhering the fiber to the side of a connector housing, which can result in breakage of the optical fiber when in the field. The system and method provide a mechanism for easily epoxying the optical fiber to the ferrule while still allowing for sonic radial movement of the optical fiber within the connector housing, which is desirable. The system and method incorporate an end cap that centers the optical fiber in the connector housing during the connection process and also acts as a strain relief when in the field.

  • Publication number: 20220238767
    Abstract: An array of phosphor pixels is positioned on an array of semiconductor LED pixels with thermally curable adhesive between them. Selected LED pixels of the array are electrically activated; resulting heat cures the adhesive to attach the corresponding phosphor pixel to the activated LED pixel and to release the corresponding phosphor pixel from a carrier. Removal of the carrier removes unattached phosphor pixels, leaving behind phosphor pixels attached to the LED pixels that were activated. The process can be repeated for phosphor pixels of different colors.
