Abstract: An example method for picking a media sheet from a media tray, the method comprising: controlling a media picker to perform a pick procedure to pick the media sheet from the media tray; upon detecting an error condition in the pick procedure, translating the media sheet in a direction within a plane of the media sheet; and controlling the media picker to retry the pick procedure to pick the media sheet from the media tray.

Abstract: A blowout preventer (BOP) health monitoring system includes a controller having a tangible, machine readable-medium storing one or more instructions executable by a processor. The one or more instructions are configured to receive feedback from a sensor, where the feedback is indicative of a pressure within a BOP stack over time, determine a position of a plurality of components of the BOP stack, determine a start point and an end point of a pressure test based on the feedback, determine a decay and a hold duration of the pressure test based on the feedback, the start point, and the end point, determine a health index of the BOP stack based on the decay and the hold duration, and provide an output indicative of a condition of the BOP stack based on the health index.

Abstract: A serviceable machine includes a door assembly having a door, and a jointed assembly that extends between an external surface of the serviceable machine and the door. The jointed assembly is operable to move the door between a closed position in which an interior region of the serviceable machine is covered, and an open position in which the interior portion of the interior region is unobstructed. The jointed assembly may extend connectivity to the door when the door is in either the open or closed positions. Additionally, the door can mechanically and electrically decouple from the jointed assembly.

Abstract: An example system includes a main body and a module. The main body includes a first guide portion, and the module includes a second guide portion. The module is removably attachable to the main body. The first guide portion and the second guide portion form complimentary parts of a media guide when the module is attached to the main body.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a method for acquiring de-ghosted data that can be utilized for calibration of a seismic source (air gun) model. Positions of a plurality of seismic receivers can be determined to enable efficient removal of an interference effect of ghost signals originating from mirrored versions of at least one seismic source that are received at the plurality of seismic receivers (hydrophones). Data (de-ghosted or near de-ghosted) can be acquired from the plurality of seismic receivers located at the determined positions by operating the at least one seismic source. A calibrated model of the at least one seismic source can be prepared based on the acquired (de-ghosted) data.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a request for web-widget manipulation. The request includes a scope of manipulation. The method further includes identifying at least one managed web widget as being covered by the scope of manipulation. In addition, the method includes identifying at least one instance of the at least one managed web widget as being covered by the scope of manipulation. Further, the method includes extracting a plurality of user-interface (UI) display items relative to the at least one managed web widget and the at least one instance. The plurality of UI display items includes at least one global UI display item and at least one website-level UI display item.

Abstract: A vanity for a visor having a cover attached to a frame at a pivot point is disclosed. An extension arm is connected to the cover and a metal pin extends from the extension arm. At least one metal stamping extends from the frame. When the cover is closed, the extension arm rotates the metal pin into contact with the metal stamping. When the cover is opened, the extension arm rotates the metal pin out of contact with the metal stamping. First and second actuation tabs may be connected to the cover and a pair of stamping legs extend from the frame. When the cover is closed, the first actuation tab prevents contact between the pair of stamping legs but permits contact between the pair of stamping legs when the cover is open. When the cover is opened, the second actuation tab causes contact between the pair of stamping legs.

Abstract: A vanity mirror frame (70) has insert-molded electrical contacts (117, 118) for holding a lamp in place in the frame and which, when assembled to a visor core, makes aligned electrical connections with the visor core electrical supply. Further, the vanity mirror frame includes a unique socket (78) for pivotally receiving and holding a mirror cover in place. Detent springs extend between the frame and cover for snap opening and closing of the cover between closed and open positions. The cover includes an additional cam (95, 97) which cooperates with an electrical switch when the cover is open to provide operating power to the lamp.

Abstract: A process for compressing data sent to command driven remote video terminals is disclosed. A command string representation of the current contents of the remote terminal's video buffer is maintained locally at the host computer. This command string representation is a sequence of commands, in the terminals command language, that will write the contents of the screen in a manner as expected by the application that originated the transmitted data, if the sequence were sent to the terminal device following an erase/write command. Incoming current command strings are sorted by buffer address order and analyzed and merged with the command string representation of the buffer contents via a very efficient single pass process that provides a new expected state representation, an erase/write command string, and a write command string which expresses only the differences between the current terminal buffer contents and the desired presentation.
