  • Patent number: 11172003
    Abstract: A device may generate a registration mapping that associates a client identifier of a media client and a messaging identifier of a user device. The device may store the registration mapping in a registration data structure. The device may receive, via a messaging protocol, a message from the user device. The message may include the message identifier and an input for an application session of the media client. The device may determine, based on the registration data structure including the registration mapping and the message, that the user device is associated with the media client. The device may provide, via the messaging protocol, the message to the media client to permit the application session to operate according to the input.

  • Patent number: 10785104
    Abstract: A mechanism automatically reconfigures and later restores the network configuration and settings for network devices installed at one location according to configuration and settings of corresponding network devices installed at another location. This enables a user to access these network devices the same way in both locations. This mechanism further avoids having to perform any network reconfiguration of mobile devices that may be carried between the two locations.

  • Patent number: 10255713
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for dynamically adjusting rendering parameters based on user movements may include determining viewpoint movement data for a user viewing a rendering of a 3D model at a first time, determining a first level-of-detail at which to render the 3D model based at least in part on the viewpoint movement data at the first time and rendering the 3D model at the first level-of-detail. The method may also include determining viewpoint movement data for the user at a second time, wherein the viewpoint movement data at the second time differs from the viewpoint movement data at the first time. In addition, the method may include determining a second level-of-detail at which to render the 3D model based at least in part on the viewpoint movement data at the second time and rendering the 3D model at the second level-of-detail, wherein the second level-of-detail differs from the first level-of-detail.

  • Patent number: 10244649
    Abstract: In various implementations, an enclosure may be utilized to secure component(s) for a variety of applications, such as creating a communications network. For example, an enclosure may be utilized to secure electronic component(s). The enclosure may include shell(s) and a frame coupled to create a seal that inhibits the components in the enclosure from being exposed to fluids and/or particles. The shell(s) or portions thereof may not cause substantial signal loss.

  • Publication number: 20180334232
    Abstract: A stern light manually insertible into and removable from a powered socket such as for a boat, is shown and described. The stern light comprises a light transmissive elongated post with a plurality of point light sources. Each point light source is individually controllable as to on-off and as to color, either from local pushbuttons or from a portable wireless transmitter. The point light sources may be controlled by a programmable controller which responds to the local pushbuttons or to the portable wireless transmitter, and may illuminate according to various lighting sequences, such as constantly on and such as flashing.

  • Patent number: 9965893
    Abstract: Systems and methods for performing shading operations of a three-dimensional model, such as a three-dimensional model of a geographic area, are provided. According to aspects of the present disclosure, shading operations can be performed based on a curvature of the polygon mesh such that smooth surfaces still appear smooth after shading and such that sharp edges still appear sharp after shading. In particular, a curvature-driven normal is used for shading operations that takes into account the local curvature of the polygon mesh. A curvature factor can be obtained for each vertex in the polygon mesh. The curvature factor for each vertex can be a scalar value that describes the degree of local curvature in the mesh polygons connected at the vertex. The curvature-driven normal for each fragment can be determined based on the curvature factors associated with the vertices in the polygon mesh.

  • Publication number: 20170311469
    Abstract: In various implementations, an enclosure may be utilized to secure component(s) to location(s), such as an overhead portion of a structure (e.g., a ceiling) for a variety of applications, such as creating a communications network. For example, an enclosure may be utilized to secure communications component(s). The enclosure may include one or more finishing brackets, back members, mounting brackets, gaskets, and shells. One of more components of the enclosure may be coupled (e.g. via the gasket(s)) to create a seal that inhibits the components in the enclosure from being exposed to fluids and/or particles. The shell may not cause substantial signal loss, in some implementations.

  • Patent number: 9584769
    Abstract: Remote usable surveillance apparatuses are provided with at least a single camera head and preferably with the ability to provide adjustment about one or more axis. The present invention also solves several other problems faced by designs with fixed (non-moveable) axis imaging systems. Those include but are not limited to supplying power to a camera head that tilts and rotates, particularly at a remote location. The ability of the user to interface with camera functions and setting using a tilting head, multiple power supplies and options built into a single housing without the addition of power cables or external jacks. The present invention provides a standalone concept without the aid of one or even more mounting apparatuses or devices which in turn sets it apart and creates a totally different multi-axis concept from prior art.
