Abstract: System and method to provide contextual services, the method including: capturing a characteristic of a first person inside or within a predetermined distance of a monitored space; accessing a database of identifying characteristics of potential visitors to the monitored space; identifying the first person by use of the database, to produce an identified visitor; and providing to a second person an information related to the identified visitor. The system may include: a database of identifying characteristics of potential visitors to a monitored space; a surveillance device configured to capture a characteristic of a first person inside or within a predetermined distance of the monitored space; a processor configured to identify the first person by use of the database, to produce an identified visitor; and a communication interface configured to provide to a second person an information related to the identified visitor.

Abstract: A Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) is disclosed. The PSAP is configured to enable the detection of language preferences, capabilities, or inabilities and, based on such detection, assist the PSAP agent in assisting the PSAP caller. The PSAP may additionally or alternatively utilize the detection of language information to assist in the decision to route or re-route the PSAP caller to appropriate PSAP resources.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for suppressing spatial noise based on phase information. The method transforms audio signals to frequency-domain data and identifies time-frequency points that have a parameter (e.g., signal-to-noise ratio) above a threshold. Based on these points, unwanted signals can be attenuated the desired audio source can be isolated. The method can work on a microphone array that includes two microphones or more.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein provide systems and methods for integrating user orientation into a voice command system. In a particular embodiment, a method provides receiving audio information spoken by a user during a time period and determining whether the audio information includes a voice command. The method further provides determining a first orientation of the user during the time period and complying with the voice command based on the first orientation.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and systems are provided such that a Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) may utilize a new model to handle Open Line emergency calls, including audio optimization, automation, analysis, and presentation. Embodiments of the present disclosure assist with the difficult task of identifying background noise while trying to listen and talk to a caller, and give the best possible audio from the caller to the emergency call-taker or dispatcher. More particularly, an audio stream is split into at least two instances, with a first instance being optimized for speech intelligibility and provided to a call-taker or dispatcher and a second instance being provided for background sound analysis. Accordingly, the new PSAP Open Line model may allow for significantly more efficient emergency assessment, location, and management of resources.

Abstract: A big bag comprising a base wall, a ceiling wall, and lateral walls formed and secured between the base and the ceiling walls for forming a closed formation, and further comprising a combined closure means provided on said base wall having a secondary closure part fastened to a primary closure part secured to said base wall for closing an outlet spout mounted to the base wall, and said outlet spout being discharging material therethrough; wherein said combined closure means (6) comprises at least a primary attaching means provided on said primary closure part fastened to said base, and at least a secondary attaching means provided on said secondary closure part, the secondary attaching means being capable of engaging to the primary attaching means.

Abstract: The present invention is about a mechanism in the a container such as a FIBC, which enables the immediate neutralization of the electrostatic charges generated during filling, emptying or transporting of the containers. FIBCs are used to carry bulk solid powders, such as sugar, flour, starch and chemical substances. The FIBC, which enables neutralization of the electrostatic charge generated within the material in the bag, developed with this invention, is characterized by inner devices knitted preferably with multi-filaments or mono-filaments and tapes, made of polymers in the form of a web or net with a special antistatic additive, established to an appropriate place in the FIBC so as to have maximum contact with the bulk solid powders in the FIBC in order to neutralize the electrostatic charge at distant points of the FIBC's wall.

Abstract: A flexible intermediate bulk container (FIBC) for transferring various type of materials, including industry-based granule materials, fine materials like sugar, flour, comprising baffles sewed to edge region of the FIBCs for preventing bulging formation on lateral surfaces thereof so defining an essential volume and subsidiary volume in the FIBC and said baffles having holes for promoting material transfer between the essential volume and subsidiary volume the development comprising said baffle (3) formed as a net structure having plurality of filaments (4), plurality of net passages (10) between these filaments (4) and connection elements (8) the filaments (4) are attached thereon.
