A quick response (QR) code provided from a recipient is read. The QR code includes the pre-authorized amount to be withdrawn from an account associated the user and image data associated with the intended recipient. Image data associated with the recipient is captured. Image analysis is performed on the captured image data associated with the recipient. The analyzed captured image data associated with the recipient is compared with the image data associated with the intended recipient. A determination is then made if the recipient is the intended recipient based on the comparison. When the recipient is the intended recipient, the pre-authorized amount is provided to the recipient from the account associated with the user.

Abstract: The invention provides a color Doppler ultrasound imaging method. The method includes acquiring a plurality of sparse color Doppler ultrasound image frames and B-mode ultrasound image frames. The color Doppler and B-mode image frames are then pre-processed before estimating a vector flow based on said frames by means of solving a flow vector field in a whole field of view of the image frames through an optimization framework, in which a mask is adapted to define a sparse area of observed color Doppler measurements within the sparse color Doppler image frames. A new color Doppler image frame is generated based on this estimate and included in the output image.

Abstract: A custom system data stream stitches together aspects of various data streams from source systems. In one implementation, an analytics circuit of a computing system extracts, from a first data stream received from a system quality assurance (QA) management system, test case data. The analytics circuit parses metadata, including a user story identifier, from the test case data. Based on the user story identifier, the analytics circuit parses, from a second data stream received from a system development lifecycle (SDLC) management computing system, SDLC item data that includes a project identifier. Based on the project identifier from the second data stream, the analytics circuit determines at least one computer application impacted by activity associated with the test case data from the first data stream. Items from the source data streams are dynamically identified for inclusion in the custom system data stream. The custom system data stream is bound to a graphical user interface.

Abstract: A media playout system receives a broadcast log transmitted from a media scheduling system. The broadcast log includes a restricted show, and the media playout system makes a first determination a blackout period assigned to the restricted show. The blackout period indicates a period of time associated with the restricted show during which at least one media item is prohibited from being scheduled.
