Abstract: A multi-axis robotic vial loading system designed for transporting containers. The multi-axis robotic loading system includes a conveyor belt for transporting vials to a multi-axis robotic arm. The multi-axis robotic arm includes a gripper configured to attach to one or more vials. The multi-axis robotic arm moves the vials from the conveyor belt to a storage container.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can generate individual feature data for each user of a plurality of users. A first cohort comprising a first plurality of users is generated, wherein the first plurality of users are selected from the plurality of users based on the individual feature data. A first set of cohort feature data associated with the first cohort is generated based on individual feature data for the first plurality of users. The first set of cohort feature data and a first set of cohort membership information are transmitted to a modeler. The first set of cohort membership information identifies each user of the plurality of users.

Abstract: A sleeping bag system has the appearance of a stuffed character when not in use as a sleeping bag and includes a torso including a torso compartment therein, a first limb having a first arm compartment therein which is in connection with the torso compartment, a second limb having a second arm compartment therein which is in connection with the torso compartment, at least a third limb having at least a first leg compartment therein which is in connection with the torso compartment. The sleeping bag system further includes an opening in the torso providing access to the torso compartment from outside of the sleeping bag system and an item removably storable in the torso compartment which is adapted to provide stability to the sleeping bag system such that the sleeping bag system can sit upright without support when not in use as a sleeping bag.

Abstract: A design for snowsports devices such as skis and snowboards uses non-Newtonian materials. Non-Newtonian materials exhibit rate-sensitive characteristics, with stress vs. strain properties dependent on the rate of loading. The snowsports device with non-Newtonian materials has variable stiffness and damping, with both increasing according to an increased applied load-rate such that a single snowsports device exhibits soft flex characteristics under low applied load-rates, but stiffer flex characteristics under high applied load-rates. The flex of the snowsports device is self-adjusting, with no manual adjustment input required by a user. The non-Newtonian material may be incorporated into the structure of the snowsports device in a number of different ways, including in the core, in composite sheet layers, and other locations.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for storing and retrieving visual representations of audio in real-time. The system generates a plurality of sets of waveform display data from a digital audio signal and stores the display data in addition to the audio signal. In the preferred embodiment, each set of waveform display data describes a different time scale representation of the audio signal. The system can edit and playback the audio signal from the visual presentations described by the waveform display data sets. The system implements a file management system to relate each set of data describing the visual representations and the audio signal.
