Abstract: A self-contained mechanical device is provided that is mountable to a lawn tractor or other similar powered unit, via a standard mounting system, such as a hitch-type mount, for movement of bulk material or heavy objects around a work site or storage facility. The device includes a casterable frame to which a manually or tiltable hopper is mounted. The device also includes a hinge system between the hopper and frame. A knuckle is provided as a connection point to facilitate storage in translation of the device from a substantially horizontal position to a substantially vertical position.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for facilitating selective delivery of aggregate material in bulk from a back of a dump truck or other truck bed to one or more wheelbarrows in a controlled manner. The disclosed embodiments further provide a system that could be operated by a single individual, including the single individual that is then manually moving the wheelbarrow from the truck to the particular location of the delivery site where the aggregate material is to be finally dispensed. The disclosed systems provide a self-contained mechanical device that is comparatively-easily mountable to the back of a dump truck or other truck bed for use, and is electrically, or electric over hydraulically, powered through the electrical system of the vehicle in order to avoid any need for additional power requirements.

Abstract: A method of determining ice accretion on a surface of an aircraft can include supplying a known power to a heating element formed in a patch, wherein the patch includes a temperature sensor. A controller module can compare a sensed thermal signature with a threshold signature and determine the presence of ice accretion on the aircraft.

Abstract: Methods and systems for generating a presentation file. The systems and methods described herein may analyze received imagery in accordance with one or more criterion, and then select at least a portion of the received imagery based on the portion satisfying the at least one criterion. The systems and methods may then generate a presentation file such as a video slideshow that includes the selected imagery portion(s).

Abstract: Methods and systems for identifying at least one participant in imagery related to an event. The methods described herein may involve receiving imagery related to an event and executing at least one of an indicia identification procedure to identify at least one visual indicia in the imagery and a facial identification procedure to identify at least one face in the imagery. The methods described herein may then identify a person in the imagery based on at least one of the execution of the indicia identification procedure and the facial identification procedure.

Abstract: A system and method are provided employing a self-contained mechanical device that is mountable to, for example, a lawn tractor or other similar powered unit, via a standard mounting system, such as a hitch-type mount, to facilitate movement of bulk material or heavy objects around a work site or storage facility. The disclosed embodiments provide a casterable frame and or platform system to which a manually or automatically tiltable platform or hopper may be mounted. Powered movement around a particular site may be facilitated by a small tractor, such as a lawn tractor. Manual unloading may be facilitated using a hinge system between the platform/hopper and frame. A knuckle may be provided as a connection point of the system, to control movement of the system and to facilitate storage of the system in translation of the system from a substantially horizontal position to a substantially vertical position.

Abstract: A nail driving assembly for driving a nail without bending over includes a tube that may be gripped. The tube has a length of at least 90 cm. Thus, the tube extends between a support surface and a user without having the user bend over. A striking unit is slidably positioned in the tube and the striking unit is selectively aligned with a nail in the support surface. The striking unit is selectively struck thereby facilitating the striking unit to drive the nail without having the user bend over.

Abstract: A software application displays user interfaces for functionality of the software application. A user interface element is displayed on a user interface for the software application. A configuration screen for user configuration of the software application is displayed in response to a user command indicating selection of said user interface element. The configuration screen includes content corresponding to a state of the software application when the user command is received. The configuration screen may include content based on entered data in the user interface or on a data entry point of the user at the time of selecting the user interface element. The user interface element is displayed in a location on a plurality of user interface screens that is substantially identical for each screen. The configuration screen may include user preferences.
