Abstract: Virtual spaces can be added to both 2D and 3D representations of physical spaces allowing for enhancements of those spaces. The virtual spaces can belong to business locations, such as a bakery or coffee shop, and content for those spaces can be controlled by the owner or user of that location. Virtual spaces belonging to public spaces can be provided as digital space for content providers. Valuation of the virtual space can occur based on various requests and use metrics of that virtual space and provide a marketplace for the addition of virtual content. Layers or groups of virtual spaces can be created and enabled or disabled by a user viewing the representation with the virtual space.

Abstract: A frusto-conical filter includes at least one layer of a filtering material, wherein one or more layers of the at least one layer of a filtering material comprises a plurality of pleats. Each of the pleats has a center axis which essentially maintains a constant distance from the center axis of its adjoining pleats. The media filter has a first end and a second end, the second end being spaced apart from the first end, and one of the first and second ends is larger than the other of the first and second ends. A method of making this media involves cutting out a frusto-conical section from a generically shaped media and aligning it in such a way as to maintain the constant distance of the pleats from the adjacent pleats.

The memory includes instructions such that the processor is programmed to receive sensor data including wheel speed measurements, suspension displacement measurements, and tire leak detection data from a vehicle, estimate a rough road measurement based on a deviation of a wheel speed with respect to an average wheel speed and or based on suspension displacement sensor signals and generate temporal spatial map data indicative of a location and a roughness severity metric of a roadway portion based on the rough road measurement and tire leak detection data.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes an architecture and design of Unauthorized-Blocking-Role (UAB). UAB is a mechanism which prevents higher privileged users of cloud-hosted software from performing unauthorized activities on protected objects, such as management objects. UAB works by periodically monitoring the permissions of customer users on key management objects in an object hierarchy in management software. If a customer user is detected to have privileges higher than the user should have on those objects, UAB applies restrictive role-based access controls (RBACs) on the user. Similarly, UAB also monitors protected principals and protected roles to ensure that their privileges are not modified by a customer user.

Abstract: An electrical stimulation system includes a sheath that includes conductive points that are operative to facilitate electrical stimulation to a bodily portion of a user. Drive-sense circuits (DSCs) generate electrical stimulation signals based on reference signals and provide those electrical stimulation signals via electrodes to the conductive points of the sheath. The electrical stimulation signal is coupled into respective locations of the bodily portion of the user that are in proximity to or in contact with the conductive points of the sheath. In addition, the DSCs sense, via the conductive points of the sheath and via the electrodes, changes of the electrical stimulation signals based on coupling of them into the respective locations of the bodily portion of the user. The DSCs provide digital signals that are representative of the changes of the electrical stimulation signals to one or more processing modules that includes and/or is coupled to memory.

Abstract: An improved light fixture includes a housing that connects to a power source at one end and interfaces with a heat sink, lighting module, and associated lens at the other end. A lens retainer includes an aperture that allows water to flow into a cavity formed within the lens retainer when installed. A portion of the heat sink is exposed to the cavity and can form a surface of the cavity. As a result, the exposed surface of the heat sink can come into direct contact with water that flows through the aperture of the lens retainer. The lens retainer can use multiple apertures in fluid communication with the cavity, providing a path for water to provide a cooling flow to the heat sink.
