Abstract: The vectorial magnetometer and associated methods can allow to distinguish the relative superposed amplitudes associated to different spin populations based on the known proportions of the Rabi attenuation in the different characteristic orientations of the spin populations due to application of different pulse parameters which can be specifically selected to create a contrast between the attenuation proportions stemming from the different spin populations.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for tailoring composite graphical assistant interfaces for interacting with multiple different connected devices. The composite graphical assistant interfaces can be generated in response to a user providing a request for an automated assistant to cause a connected device to perform a particular function. In response to the automated assistant receiving the request, the automated assistant can identify other connected devices, and other functions capable of being performed by the other connected devices. The other functions can then be mapped to various graphical control elements in order to provide a composite graphical assistant interface from which the user can interact with different connected devices. Each graphical control element can be arranged to reflect how each connected device is operating simultaneous to the presentation of the composite graphical assistant interface.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods that perform structure-based access control. In particular, rather than relying upon a user-specific credential scheme, which can require manual sharing of user-specific credentials and/or switching between the multiple accounts to access the particular devices, applications, or services associated with such accounts, the systems and methods of the present disclosure facilitate user credentials to be inherited by or otherwise assigned to a structure identifier associated with a structure (e.g., a home in which the user resides), thereby generating a set of structure credentials. This enables other users in the structure, who may be part of a collaborative user group, to access devices, applications, and/or services using the structure credentials.

Abstract: Remote automated assistant component(s) generate client device notification(s) based on a received IoT state change notification that indicates a change in at least one state associated with at least one IoT device. The generated client device notification(s) can each indicate the change in state associated with the at least one IoT device, and can optionally indicate the at least one IoT device. Further, the remote automated assistant component(s) can identify candidate assistant client devices that are associated with the at least one IoT device, and determine whether each of the one or more of the candidate assistant client device(s) should render a corresponding client device notification.

Abstract: The present disclosure is generally related to a data processing system to validate vehicular functions in a voice activated computer network environment. The data processing system can improve the efficiency of the network by discarding action data structures and requests that invalid prior to their transmission across the network. The system can invalidate requests by comparing attributes of a vehicular state to attributes of a request state.

Abstract: Various implementations relate to generating, locally at an assistant client device, specific control commands that, when transmitted to a corresponding smart device, are directly interpretable by the corresponding smart device to effectuate a state change at the corresponding smart device, or at a corresponding additional smart device directly controlled by the corresponding smart device. Various implementations additionally or alternatively relate to utilizing local assistant client devices in discovering, provisioning, and/or registering smart devices for an account of a user.

Abstract: Example aspects of the present disclosure are directed to processing voice commands or utterances. For instance, data indicative of a voice utterance can be received. A device topology representation can be accessed. The device topology representation can define a plurality of smart devices associated with one or more structures. The device topology representation can further define a location of each of the plurality of devices within the associated structures. A transcription of the voice utterance can be determined based at least in part on the device topology representation. One or more selected devices and one or more actions to be performed by the one or more selected devices can be determined based at least in part on the determined transcription and the device topology representation.

Abstract: A utility cabinet includes a housing having an interior compartment, a rear wall, a top wall, a bottom wall, a first side wall, a second side wall, a front opening, and a side opening. A frame is connected to the housing and moveable between a first position where the frame is entirely in the housing and a second position where at least a portion of the frame is outside of the housing. The frame is configured to receive one or more utility components. A front door is connected to the housing and moveable between a closed position covering the front opening and an open position providing access to the front opening. A side door is connected to the housing and moveable between a closed position covering the side opening and an open position providing access to the side opening.

Abstract: A bogie configured to move along a track of an amusement ride includes two first lateral wheels, on each side of a vertical center plane of the bogie, for rolling along a run of the track. A second lateral wheel is mounted on each side of the vertical center plane and is movable perpendicular to the vertical center plane between a first position proximate the vertical plane and a second position spaced-away from the vertical plane. The bogie also includes a mechanism that provides a force to normally bias the second wheel toward the first position. The mechanism is configured such that the magnitude of the provided force increases with increasing separation between the second lateral wheel on one side of the vertical center plane and the second lateral wheel on the other side of the vertical center plane.
