Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for coordinating and controlling power flow during in-flight bidirectional energy transfer events between an electrified vehicle, one or more charging trailers, and optionally, one or more electrified recreational vehicles. The systems and methods may prioritize energy transfers between each connected energy unit based on various parameters, including but not limited to in-transit travel logistics, environmental information, time of day, etc. Charge energy may be transferred to the appropriate power source to meet customer needs with varying levels of priority according to an energy transfer prioritization control strategy that is derived from the various inputs that are considered.

The retrofit door includes a front surface, a plurality of sidewalls extending from the front surface, and a rear surface extending inward from the plurality of sidewalls. The rear surface is spaced apart from the front surface and defines an opening into a cavity of the retrofit door. The fiber optic apparatus and the retrofit door are configured such that when the fiber optic apparatus and the retrofit door are mounted, the at least one cavity of the retrofit door provides volume to accommodate the fiber optic apparatus.
Abstract: A device may receive receipt information associated with items in an order. The receipt information may include item identifiers and price descriptors associated with the items in the order. The device may receive product information associated with the items in the order. The product information may include product identifiers based on images of the items in the order and object descriptors. The device may map a first item identifier for a first item in the order and a first product identifier for determining that the first item corresponds to a first price descriptor and a first object descriptor. The device may map a second item identifier for a second item in the order and a second product identifier for determining that the second item corresponds to a second price descriptor and a second object descriptor. The device may assign the first and second items to respective first and second sub-receipts.

Abstract: A first layer of anisotropic material extends along a first plane and includes anisotropic components being parallel to a second plane non-parallel and non-perpendicular to the first plane. The anisotropic components are arranged in cycloidal or helical patterns. The cycloidal or helical patterns define one or more Bragg planes that are non-parallel and non-perpendicular to the first plane and either substantially parallel or substantially perpendicular to the second plane.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to triggering virtual keyboard selections using multiple input modalities. An interface manager can display an interface, such as a virtual keyboard, to a user in an artificial reality environment. Implementations of the interface manager can track user eye gaze input and user hand input (e.g., hand or finger motion). The interface manager can resolve a character selection on the virtual keyboard according to the tracked user gaze input based on detection that the user's hand motion meets a trigger criteria. For example, the interface manager can: detect that the tracked user hand motion meets the trigger criteria at a given point in time; and resolve a selection from the virtual keyboard (e.g., selection of a displayed character) according to the tracked user gaze on the virtual keyboard at the given point in time.

Abstract: Devices, systems and methods for applying a bioadhesive substance to an internal surface of the eye, such as the retina, can include an outer sleeve having a proximal end, a distal end, a passageway extending along a length of the elongate body and an opening at the distal end of the elongate body, an applicator tip including an elongate body having a proximal end and a distal end, an applicator portion coupled with the distal end of the elongate body, and a substance supply lumen extending along a length of the device through which a bioadhesive substance can pass so that the bioadhesive substance can be applied to at least the applicator portion of the applicator tip. Some embodiments of the device can also have a source of the bioadhesive substance in fluid communication with at least the substance supply lumen.
Abstract: A disclosed method facilitates a computationally efficient way of identifying cohorts of telemetry point values that are statistically significant indicators of a computing event satisfying a condition of interest. The method includes computing Z-scores for the telemetry point values in an event-based dataset; identifying, based on the Z-scores, significant telemetry point values that are statistically significant indicators of the condition of interest; generating a significance-ordered prefix tree based on the significant telemetry point values and the Z-scores; using the significance-ordered prefix tree to identify cohorts to evaluate in combination; computing a cohort Z-score for each of the identified cohorts and identifying, based on the cohort Z-scores, a subset of the cohorts that are statistically significant indicators of the condition of interest.
Abstract: A transaction card having a metal layer, an opening in the metal layer for a transponder chip, and at least one discontinuity extending from an origin on the card periphery to a terminus in the opening. The card has a greater flex resistance than a card having a comparative discontinuity with the terminus and the origin the same distance from a line defined by a first long side of the card periphery in an absence of one or more strengthening features. Strengthening features include a discontinuity wherein one of the terminus or the origin are located relatively closer to the first long side of the card periphery than the other, a plurality of discontinuities wherein fewer than all extend from the card periphery to the opening, a self-supporting, non-metal layer disposed on at least one surface of the card, or one or more ceramic reinforcing tabs surrounding the opening.

Abstract: In a method used for maximizing performance of a storage system, saturation points of the storage system for I/O requests of different types and sizes are identified. Normalized tokens are determined based on the saturation points. Unique numbers of normalized tokens are associated with the I/O requests of different types and sizes. A number of normalized tokens for a queue depth limit of a storage device is determined. From the queue depth limit, normalized tokens are allocated to each node in the storage device. I/O requests are processed according to the allocations of normalized tokens.
