Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented methods and systems provide solutions for mitigating misdetection of display devices in connection with a subscription service. In some examples, the described methods and systems receive a content request from a display device, where the content request is correlated with a particular subscription service account. In some examples, the systems and methods further determine that the display device is not associated with the particular subscription service account. To verify the display device, the systems and methods utilize display timings and scan timings associated with a verification token to prove that the display device is validly located and can therefore be trusted in connection with the subscription service account. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Abstract: An elevator monitoring system includes a monitoring controller for communicating with a remote monitoring installation. The monitoring controller has a signal input for connecting the monitoring controller to a sensor system of the elevator monitoring system. The sensor system includes a first sensor module for determining a state of an elevator controller of an elevator system monitored by the elevator monitoring system, and a second sensor module for determining movement information of the monitored elevator system. The sensor system combines an output state of the first sensor module and an output state of the second sensor module into a single output state by a logical AND operation and provides this single output state as an input for the signal input.

Abstract: A rainscreen support system includes a pair of backup wall brackets having a baseplate, an extension leg extending outwardly from and transverse to the baseplate and a fastening finger extending from an end of the finger transverse to the extension leg. The fastening fingers having a thickness. An adjustable vertical support member has a mounting leg and a transverse leg. The mounting leg has openings that correspond with and receive the fastening fingers. The openings have a width larger than the thickness of the fastening fingers. The adjustable vertical support member is installed on the fingers by positioning the member on the fingers, through the openings and lowering the support member so that the fingers rest on an inner surface of the mounting leg. The support member is adjustable toward and away from the backup wall bracket baseplate to adjust a distance between the support member and the backup wall.

Abstract: An assembly for a papermaking machine includes: a seal strip with an upper surface configured to provide a seal for a suction roll; a seal strip holder, the seal strip residing in the seal strip holder and movable relative thereto; and a wear monitoring system. The wear monitoring system may include a magnet and magnetic field sensors or an ultrasonic transducer to monitor movement of the seal strip relative to the holder, thereby indicating wear.

Abstract: In some examples, user models are generated to represent experience of users with respect to their roles. Models that represent conditions are also generated. As part of generating a support element for a particular user, a triggering event is detected (e.g., an update to a user record), a condition is identified, a condition model and a user model are compared to identify a condition preparedness score. This score is used to generate the support element, which is shared with a user device of the user.

Abstract: A facade support system for supporting a veneer on a structure includes a bracket configured to be attached to the structure. The bracket includes a back panel having opposite front and rear faces and a connecting member extending from the back panel in a generally forward direction. The connecting member defines a recess adjacent a front end of the connecting member. The bracket includes a support attachment member at least partially disposed within the recess. The facade support system includes a veneer support constructed to be attached to the bracket by the support attachment member. The veneer support is constructed to be disposed in a mortar bed joint of the veneer.

Abstract: A method for inferring a health status of call devices in an elevator arrangement uses a monitoring device for implementing the method steps of: determining elevator usage information by detecting: changing of an opening status of an elevator door, interrupting of a light curtain at an entry to an elevator car, and/or changing of a weight of the elevator car; determining elevator travel information concerning a starting floor and/or a target floor for an elevator car motion taking place antecedent or subsequent to the detected elevator event; inferring the health status of a monitored one of the call devices based on the elevator usage information and on the elevator travel information. The method allows determining the health status of call devices such as car call devices and hall call devices with a reduced number of sensors.

Abstract: Multiple sensors are used to determine proximity of a user with respect to one or more media devices. Different types of sensors may determine different types of information regarding user proximity, such as presence or absence, proximity, distance, orientation, movement, identity, or a number of users that are detected. The information, sensor types, and times at which the information is acquired are used to generate data that associates specific devices, sensor types, information regarding user proximity, and the times at which the information is acquired. Instructions may be provided to various devices to cause performance of actions based on the generated data.
