Abstract: A method and system for frequency matching a resonant cavity is disclosed. Light is received in a resonant cavity having at least a first mirror and a second mirror defining a path along which light is reflected. At least the second mirror is actuatable to vary the length of the path of the resonant cavity. An intensity of the light exiting or reflecting from the resonant cavity is monitored, and an error correction is determined. The second mirror is actuated towards a pose relative to the first mirror at which a frequency of the light is in resonance with the length of the path. In this manner, the resonant cavity is frequency matched to the light to maintain the resonant cavity in resonance.

Abstract: A method for sharing media within a chat room system, including: providing a virtual chat room that is accessible by a first user device and a second user device, receiving, from the first user device, a first media item generated by an application executed on the user device to share within the chat room, sending the first media item for distribution to the second user device via the virtual chat room, receiving a second media item from the second user device for provision in the virtual chat room, and sending the second media item for distribution to the first user device via the virtual chat room.

Abstract: Method for managing data for connection to a device via a network. The method includes: receiving, by a referencing server, originating from the device, data for connection to the device and at least one authentication token constituting an authentication datum for the assembly constituted by the device and a user of the device; and referencing of the device by the referencing server by storage of the connection data received in association with at least one referencing key including the at least one authentication token.

Abstract: A method for sharing media within a chat room system, including: in response to receipt of a sharing selection from a user at a device, rerouting an audio output from a default audio output of the device to a virtual audio output, capturing a primary audio stream generated by an application executed on the device with the virtual audio output, sending the primary audio stream to an external server for distribution to secondary user devices, receiving a secondary audio stream from the external server and concurrently playing the primary audio stream and secondary audio stream at an audio output of the device.

Abstract: The invention relates to an adjustable-compression suspension kit for a wheeled vehicle, comprising a first suspension with adjustable compression (24), a second suspension with adjustable compression (26), an actuator device (32) for actuating the first and second suspensions, a first cable (34) connected to the actuator device and to the first suspension, a second cable (36) connected to the actuator device and to the second suspension; the actuator device (32) being configured to move the first cable (34) in a first direction while moving the second cable (36) in a second direction in order to increase compression of the first and second suspensions (24, 26). Characteristically, the actuator device is configured to move the first cable in the second direction while moving the second cable in the first direction, in order to reduce the compression of the first and second suspensions.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes sending, to client computing devices that are each associated with a particular user identifier, conversation-group information that identifies a conversation group. The conversation-group information includes a user identifier of a first user of the conversation group. The user identifier of the first user is associated with a first one of the client computing devices. The conversation-group information also includes a server identifier of a streaming server for the conversation group. The method includes receiving, from the first one of the client computing devices, a first audio stream and a first video stream. The method includes receiving, from each of one or more of the client computing devices other than the first one of the client computing devices, a request to access the conversation group.
