Abstract: A threat management facility detects a device on an enterprise network and determines whether the device is one of a set of managed devices for the enterprise network. When the device is not one of the set of managed devices, the threat management facility may selectively direct the device to a portal that provides support to the user of the device while the device awaits admission to the enterprise network. As the user interacts with the portal, the portal may manage admission of unrecognized devices onto the enterprise network while making efficient use of network administrator resources.

Abstract: A motorized window treatment provides a low-cost solution for controlling the amount of daylight entering a space through a window. The window treatment includes a covering material, a drive shaft, at least one lift cord rotatably received around the drive shaft and connected to the covering material, and a motor coupled to the drive shaft for raising and lowering the covering material. The window treatment also includes a spring assist unit for assisting the motor by providing a torque that equals the torque provided by the weight on the cords that lift the covering material at a position midway between fully-open and fully-closed positions, which helps to minimize motor usage and conserve battery life if a battery is used to power the motorized window treatment. The window treatment may comprise a photosensor for measuring the amount of daylight outside the window and temperature sensors for measuring the temperatures inside and outside of the window.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of determining an indication of whether a vehicle in a crash is a total loss. The method may include (1) receiving (i) image data, (ii) sensor data, and/or (iii) telematics or other data indicative of a direction of a crash force; (2) determining a type of geographic area in which the crash occurred; (3) determining a make, a model, and/or a year of the vehicle; and (4) determining the indication of whether the vehicle is a total loss based upon (i) (a) the image data, (b) the sensor data, and/or (c) the data indicative of the direction of the crash force, (ii) the type of geographic area, and (iii) the make, the model, and/or the year of the vehicle. By determining the indication of whether the vehicle is a total loss based upon such data and/or factors, time may be saved and resources may be conserved.

Abstract: The present invention provides for a mechanism that allows for the creation of devices and machines that function to move, position and hold relative to straight lines and parallel planes. The functions are enabled without the use of sliding surfaces or linear bearings, and, in the case of robotics, without the use of complex calculations and control systems. The mechanism of the present invention incorporates a four bar planar parallelogram linkage with the ground link fitted with at least one additional coplanar pivotable link. The additional link and one of the four bar linkage's rocker links are fitted with circular means. Crossed flexible pulling and holding means are applied in a way so that, when the additional pivotable link is moved in a direction, the connected rocker link moves in the opposite direction, and, when the additional planar pivotable link is held in a certain position, the connected rocker link is held in the same relative position.

The batteries may be located out of view of a user of the motorized window treatment (e.g., in a headrail or in a battery compartment). The motorized window treatment may use various power-saving methods to lengthen the lifetime of the batteries, e.g., to reduce the motor speed to conserve additional battery power and extend the lifetime of the batteries.
