Abstract: A flood footprint estimation system that can generate a requested flood footprint is described herein. For example, the flood footprint estimation system can estimate water surface elevations at various points along a stream or river. The flood footprint estimation system can then perform a smoothing operation on the estimated water surface elevations to generate a trend line or curve of the estimated water surface elevations in which each point of the trend line or curve corresponds to a water surface elevation value that is no greater than any of the water surface elevation values of the previous points of the trend line or curve. The flood footprint estimation system can use the trend line or curve to perform an iterative water expansion to determine which geographic locations may flood. Results of the iterative water expansion can be provided to a user device in the form of a user interface.

Abstract: Provided is a process that includes obtaining a directed acyclic graph describing a plurality wireless connections between a plurality of downstream nodes forming a multi-path route to an Internet connected wireless transceiver; determining an encoding kernel specifying transformations to be performed by the plurality of downstream nodes on data received from upstream nodes; transmitting at least part of the encoding kernel to at least some of the downstream nodes; and transmitting data from a data source to a downstream node in the directed acyclic graph specified by the encoding kernel such that the data is conveyed through the multi-hop, multi-path route to the Internet connected wireless transceiver.

Abstract: A method of installing a flexible bioprocess container in a bioprocessing system having a rigid housing with an interior compartment and extending between a top and an opposing base. The method includes coupling a first surface of the flexible bioprocess container to a moveable platform positioned within the interior compartment of the rigid housing; coupling a second surface of the flexible bioprocess container to the base of the rigid housing; and moving the movable platform relative to the rigid housing and toward the top of the rigid housing so as to at least partially expand the flexible bioprocess container within the interior compartment of the rigid housing.

Abstract: The present set of embodiments relate a system, method, and various devices for installation of a bioproduction system. The bioproduction system includes a rigid housing having a moveable platform to assist in the installation of a bioprocessing container within. The system also includes mounting systems for a variety of peripherals originating from the flexible container while safeguarding operators. More specifically, the system includes systems and methods for mounting bearings, organizing tube sets, and placement of the flexible container in its proper orientation.

Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for recording and transmitting data are provided. The systems, devices, and methods can be used in a variety of contexts, including in conjunction with swinging devices and prosthetics. In one exemplary embodiment, the sensor is configured in a manner that allows it be omni-directional such that its orientation with respect to the object for which it is detecting data is irrelevant to the ability to accurately record and transmit data. In another exemplary embodiment, the system allows a user to use the same sensor across multiple platforms, such as using it for golf and prosthetics, for golf and tennis, or for a regular golf swing and a putting stroke. Other devices, systems, methods, and uses of the same are also provided.

Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to a camera mount system (CMS) releasably mountable to vehicle surfaces via a plurality of leg members, each leg member extending radially from a hub to support an articulating wrist member with a distal suction attachment. In an illustrative example, the articulating wrist may adjust vertically to permit secure sealing of the suction attachment to a local vehicle roof surface. Each of the articulating wrists may couple to a corresponding distal end of one of the leg members via, for example, a ball joint. The wrist angle relative to the leg member may be releasably locked by hand operation of a locking control that, for example, also locks the angle of the wrist relative to the suction attachment. Some systems may advantageously be quickly, releasably and securely mounted from non-planar and/or irregularly shaped vehicle surfaces, for example, roofs, roll cages, hulls, doors, hoods, and bodies.

Abstract: Systems and methods disclosed herein include receiving first data sent over a first wireless communication channel from a first inertial sensor positioned in or on a first shoe worn by a user, wherein the first data are generated when the user performs a fundamental movement; identifying a first phase of the fundamental movement by finding a match, within a first tolerance, between a portion of the first data and data characteristic of the first phase; comparing a feature from the portion of the first data to a corresponding feature from a pre-established signature associated with the first phase; and when the comparison yields a result that falls outside a pre-established threshold range, displaying an indication that the feature from the portion of the first data is uncharacteristic.
