Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system for leveraging telemetry data representing usage of a component installed on a group of sampled computing devices to confidently infer the quality of a user experience and/or the behavior of the component (e.g., an operating system) on a larger group of unsampled computing devices. The system is configured to use a propensity score matching approach to identify a sampled computing device that best represents an unsampled computing device using configuration data that is collected from both the sampled and unsampled computing devices. The quality of the user experience and/or the behavior of the component may be captured by a metric of interest (e.g., a QoS value). Accordingly, the system is configured to use the known metric of interest, determined from the telemetry data collected for the sampled computing device, to determine or predict the metric of interest for the unsampled computing device.

Abstract: An outdoor item such as a sleeping bag, jacket, hat or blanket with one or more ventilation/temperature adjustment openings. Each ventilation/temperature adjustment opening includes a fastening mechanism that when opened, an opening is formed in the outer layer and insulative material/layer of the sleeping bag but not in the inner layer, allowing the outdoor item to vent better, thereby cooling an occupant using or wearing the outdoor item thereby offering temperature regulation.

Abstract: A package may include a sled configured to receive a product, and a sleeve configured to receive the sled through a first or second opening. The sleeve may include a top wall, a bottom wall, and first and second sidewalls, defining the first and second openings. The sleeve may include a rib extending downward from the top wall and positioned substantially parallel to an edge of the top wall proximate the first opening. The rib may engage the sled when the package is in a closed position, and in response to a force sliding the sleeve relative to the sled, the rib may deflect and produce an indication of opening or closing.

Abstract: A sleeping bag with one more ventilation/temperature adjustment openings. The sleeping bag includes a length and width and the one more ventilation/temperature adjustment openings extend along a length of the front or upper side of the sleeping bag. A first more ventilation/temperature adjustment opening is located on a first side of a central opening access and a second more ventilation/temperature adjustment opening is located on a second side of the central opening access. Each more ventilation/temperature adjustment openings includes a fastening mechanism that when opened, a crevice is formed in the outer layer and insulative material of the sleeping bag, allowing the sleeping bag to vent better, thereby cooling an occupant of the sleeping bag and offering temperature regulation.

Abstract: A product with packaging includes a base box having sidewalls defining a cavity, a support structure having sidewalls disposed in the cavity, the support structure sidewalls being attached to corresponding walls of the base box. A tray is attached to the support structure and disposed in the cavity. An outer periphery of the tray is larger than an inner periphery of the cavity, such that the outer periphery of the tray presses against the inner periphery of the cavity resulting in a gapless interface between the two. An outer periphery the support structure is smaller than an inner periphery of the cavity, such that it results in a tension fit between the two that pulls the inner periphery of the cavity against the tray resulting in a gapless interface between the two.

Abstract: An anatomically segmented backpack has an upper back region, a lower back region, and a hip belt region. The upper back region includes a shoulder strap joined to a pack load carrying portion and a thorax harness. The thorax harness extends in two opposite directions under each shoulder blade of the user. The lower back region is coupled to the upper back region and a hip region. A slide mechanism is located in the pack load carrying portion of the upper and lower back region. A load-bearing element is disposed within the lower back region, for transferring a load from the upper back region to the user's hips. The hip region is joined to a front section of the pack by a load bearing hip belt that extends around the user.

Abstract: A single wall airbeam constructed of a single layer material including a core of polyester fabric having a coating of adhesive on each surface of the polyester layer. A thin polyester film is applied to one of the adhesive layers. First and second polyurethane layers are applied to the other adhesive layer. The first polyurethane layer is a thicker, higher melt point polyurethane layer that may or may not be coated in a fire retardant material. The second polyurethane layer is a thinner, polyurethane layer having a lower melting point. An airbeam is constructed using one or more pieces of the fabric and heat sealing or welding the one or more polyurethane layers of fabric at seams, when the one or more layers are placed in a confronting position.

The sleeping bag includes a length and width and the one more ventilation/temperature adjustment openings extend along a length of the front or upper side of the sleeping bag. A first more ventilation/temperature adjustment opening is located on a first side of a central opening access and a second more ventilation/temperature adjustment opening is located on a second side of the central opening access. Each more ventilation/temperature adjustment openings includes a fastening mechanism that when opened, a crevice is formed in the outer layer and insulative material of the sleeping bag, allowing the sleeping bag to vent better, thereby cooling an occupant of the sleeping bag and offering temperature regulation.
