Abstract: A system interconnects multiple client devices over a network. A local group of the client devices is located at a live event and a remote group is located remote from the live event. Each client device of the local group is a potential source of a live stream which, when rendered by another client device, causes display of a vantage point of the live event. The system dynamically updates a subscription list to include an indication of any client device of the local group that is actively live streaming and remove an indication of any client device of the local group that terminated live streaming. The system can enable selective access to any live streams of any client device of the updated subscription list and disable access to any live streams of any client device removed from the updated subscription list.

Abstract: Systems and methods relate generally to exposure correction of an image transparency. In an example method thereof, an adaptable filter having an adjustable transparency panel and a microcontroller is obtained. The image transparency is backlit to obtain first analog image information by the adaptable filter. An exposure level associated with the first analog image information is sensed. A transparency level of the adjustable transparency panel is adjusted responsive to the sensed exposure level. Second analog image information is obtained from the adjustable transparency panel provided to a sensor array. The second analog image information is the first analog image information with the adjusted transparency level.

Abstract: A laundry appliance includes an infuser into which users may insert a dissolvable treatment material, such as detergent pods of scented pellets. The diffuser may be removably inserted into a receptacle at least partially contained within the cabinet of the laundry appliance. One or more of a moveable cap or lid may be configured to cover an opening at the top of the receptacle, thereby sealing the receptacle. Water or air may be introduced into the receptacle through a fluid inlet line. The water or air may pass through openings in the infuser and interact with the dissolvable treatment material to produce a treatment mixture of treatment material and water or air. The treatment material may then exit the receptacle through a fluid output line, where it may be delivered to a fluid distribution element extending into the laundering chamber of the laundry appliance. The fluid distribution may then distribute the treatment solution into the chamber and onto the articles of laundry.

Abstract: A fluid flow turbine blade assembly for a turbine rotor includes a blade and a deflector extending spanwise along at least a portion of the blade. At least a portion of an upstream surface of the deflector, along at least a portion of a span of the deflector, has a concave shape in a chordwise direction such that at least a portion of a chord line between leading and trailing edges of the deflector is disposed outside a profile defined between the upstream surface and a downstream surface of the deflector. The deflector has a substantially uniform thickness or a chord-wise varying thickness between the upstream surface and the downstream surface. The deflector alters fluid flow over the blade so as to increase the blade's contribution to global torque generated by the assembly so that, with the deflector's torque contribution, the global torque of the assembly is greater than the global torque that would be generated by the blade alone without the benefit of the deflector.
