Abstract: Operations for a data normalization server include augmenting an emergency event notification from a regional emergency notification concentrator with situational awareness data for an emergency event characterized in the emergency event notification to provide an augmented emergency notification and providing a broadcast dispatch data object (BDDO) that is generated based on the augmented emergency notification to an Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) transport encoder. The BDDO includes a dispatch message with data characterizing the emergency event notification and the situational awareness data. The operations for the data normalization server also include generating an application programming interface (API) call for an ATSC transport encoder. The ATSC transport encoder encapsulates a portion of the BDDO in a broadcast stream for an ATSC broadcaster responsive to the API call.

Abstract: Operations of an Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) receiver include receiving an ATSC broadcast signal, the ATSC broadcast signal including signaling characterizing content of a plurality of channels, wherein a dispatch channel includes dispatch messages. The operations include analyzing a low level signaling (LLS) table for the dispatch channel to determine whether a dispatch message has been added to the ATSC broadcast signal and selecting a mode of operation based on the analyzing. The modes of operation include a sleep mode if a version of the LLS table for the dispatch channel has not changed and a dispatch mode in response to detecting a change in the version of the LLS table. In the dispatch mode, dispatch messages not destined for the ATSC receiver are ignored and an emergency operation is actuated in response determining that a particular dispatch message is destined for the ATSC receiver.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products are provided for dynamically reconfigurable tuning for wireless power and data communications. A wireless charging (WLC) device may improve the efficiency of variable power and data communication to a chargeable device with variable relative positioning and coupling in 3D space by dynamically reconfiguring transmitter tuning. A WLC transmitter may be dynamically reconfigured (e.g., between symmetric and asymmetric antenna impedance matching) based on at least one of the type of wireless transmission or a wireless transmission efficiency for the type of wireless transmission. For example, the controller may dynamically select a configuration for wireless power (e.g., or data) transmission based on the most efficient configuration determined from dynamically measured efficiencies for asymmetric and symmetric wireless power (e.g., or data) transmission. Tuning may be dynamically reconfigured, for example, by controlling an automatically variable inductor (e.g.

Abstract: A system and method for dynamically enhancing the clarity of a text overlapping its associated content on an electronic display. Clarity scoring modules can be used to determine clarity scores for both the text and its associated content. A combined clarity score is calculated, and adaptations (e.g., repositioning, resizing, changing Style, or replacing words) are applied the text to optimize its readability. Adaptations are tailored to improve clarity without having to separate the text and its associated content, using predefined weights to prioritize recognizability. The system ensures the adapted content remains within designated display areas and accommodates complex scenarios like text placement within specific image regions. Machine learning models may suggest optimal adaptations. This method improves the legibility of text and associated content, particularly in scenarios requiring dynamic adjustments for translations or overlaid text on images.

Abstract: One or more systems for automated preparation of a regenerative epidermal suspension comprises a base unit, a cartridge assembly containing a cup, and a tissue disaggregator. The system may also include related tools. The system executes one or more sequences wherein a first motor actuates the pestle against a tissue sample that is disposed along a screen within the cup while the tissue sample is in contact with, in sequence, an enzyme solution, a first buffer solution, and then a second buffer solution.
