  • Patent number: 10430153
    Abstract: Audio content may be played back in synchrony with a member of a synchrony group based on playback timing information. While synchronously playing back the audio content, the playback timing information may be transmitted to the member of the synchrony group. The transmitted playback timing information may comprise a first timestamp. In response to a pause command, the synchronous playback may be paused prior to a time indicated by the first timestamp and a second timestamp. While the synchronous playback is paused and in response to a resume command, the member of the synchrony group may be instructed to update the first timestamp based on a new start time indicative of when the synchronous playback is to be resumed and update the second timestamp such that the updated second timestamp is synchronized with the updated first timestamp. The synchronous playback may be resumed based on the updated second timestamp.

  • Patent number: 10430649
    Abstract: Text region detection techniques and systems for digital images using image tag filtering are described. These techniques and systems support numerous advantages over conventional techniques through use of image tags to filter text region candidates. A computing device, for instance, may first generate text region candidates through use of a variety of different techniques, such as text line detection. The computing device then assigns image tags to the text region candidates. The assigned image tags are then used by the computing device to filter the text region candidates based on whether image tags assigned to respective candidates are indicative of text.

  • Patent number: 10431430
    Abstract: Elastomeric components, such as a shoe outsole, are treated with a plasma application to clean and activate the elastomeric component. The application of plasma is controlled to achieve a sufficient surface composition change to enhance adhesion characteristics while not adversely physically deforming the elastomeric component. The plasma treatment is applied to increase carbonyl functional group concentrations within an altered region of the elastomeric component to within at least a range of 2%-15% of carbon atomic percentage composition. The cleaning and activation is controlled, in part, by ensuring a defined height offset range is maintained between the elastomeric component and the plasma source by a generated tool path. The elastomeric component may then be adhered, with an adhesive, to another component.
