Abstract: Systems and methods of this disclosure make use of positive pressure to evacuate pipeline product contained within an isolated section of pipeline. In embodiments, an inert fluid is injected at a first location along the isolated section at a pressure above that of a non-isolated section of pipeline The displaced pipeline product, which may be filtered, then flows out of the isolated section at second location along the isolated section and into the non-isolated section. In other embodiments, a pressure differential between the isolated and non-isolated sections is created by lowering a pressure of the non-isolated section below that of the isolated section. The pipeline product may be a liquid, a gas, or a mixture of the two. The composition of product may be monitored as it flows through the isolated section or as it exits the section. Evacuation may be slowed or stopped based upon the composition.

Abstract: Camera equipment used for capturing a live event is expensive and may require professionals to operate the equipment. Such camera equipment is not accessible for capturing events and experiences by everyday users. Suppose media content is captured by lower-cost input devices such as mobile phones with a video camera. A production platform can use computer vision techniques to produce enhanced media content from media content captured by the lower-cost input devices. In one example, the production platform can aggregate and analyze the received media content to extract information and determine blind spots. The production platform can create or retrieve content based on the extracted information and insert the content in the blind spots. The production platform can deliver enhanced media content to an end user device, the enhanced media content may have the received media content and the inserted content.
