Abstract: A method for manipulating an initial video stream captured by a camera in a video conferencing endpoint into multiple views corresponding to regions of interest. The method comprises detecting objects of one or more predefined types in a frame of the initial video stream; selecting a plurality of crop regions (2200a, 2200b, 2200c) from the frame of the initial video stream, and transmitting the plurality of crop regions. Each crop region includes at least one bounding box and each bounding box includes a detected object of a predefined type.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a rotary embolectomy device. The device includes a rotatable bit which contacts a blood clot within a cannula, thereby disintegrating the clot. The clot can be removed by means of suction, complete disintegration, or a collecting basket.

Abstract: A customer self-help system employs artificial intelligence and machine learning to identify self-help content that is responsive to a user query by analyzing and searching a plurality of customer self-help systems. The customer self-help system generates a self-help relationship model by applying one or more processes/algorithms on training set data. In response to a user query, the customer self-help system identifies ones of the plurality of customer self-help systems that are relevant to the user query and searches the relevant ones of the plurality of customer self-help systems for self-help content that is responsive to the user query. The customer self-help system then provides the self-help content to the user in response to receipt of the user query from the user.

Abstract: Crop synchronized auto focus and exposure may be provided. First, a command corresponding to a new crop region of a sensor of a camera may be received. Then new capture settings corresponding to the new crop region may be obtained. Next, a frame may be captured from the sensor of the camera according to the obtained new capture settings. The captured frame may then be cropped according to the new crop region.

Abstract: A combined CV joint boot and inner seal includes a boot portion having a first end and a second end and having a shaft sealing portion at the first end for sealing with a first shaft of the CV joint. A front can sealing portion is positioned at the second end of the boot portion. An inner seal portion extends generally inwardly towards the CV joint longitudinal axis to block lubricant from migrating into the interior of the boot portion.

Abstract: Described herein are implementations of various technologies for a method for configuring a seismic data acquisition network. A first message may be received from a first node of the seismic data acquisition network over a first direct communication link. The first message may comprise a first precision quality of a first reference clock to which the first node may be synchronized. A second message may be received from a second node of the seismic data acquisition network over a second direct communication link. The second message may comprise a second precision quality of a second reference clock to which the second node may be synchronized. One of the first precision quality and the second precision quality may be determined to have a higher precision quality. A real time clock may be synchronized to one of the first reference clock and second reference clock having the higher precision quality.

Abstract: An inner seal is provided for protecting a CV joint boot for a CV joint. The CV joint includes a bearing, a back sealing means and a front can. The bearing operatively connects a first shaft and a second shaft. The bearing has an inner race and an outer race and has a front and a back. The first shaft is connected to the inner race. The second shaft is connected to the outer race. The front can is connected to the outer race. The back sealing means seals against leakage of lubricant from the back of the bearing. The inner seal comprises an inner seal body having a front can sealing portion for sealing with the front can to inhibit the migration of lubricant from the bearing therebetween. The inner seal body has a shaft sealing portion for sealing with the first shaft to inhibit the migration of lubricant from the bearing therebetween. The inner seal body has a shield portion that extends between the front can sealing portion and the shaft sealing.

Abstract: Described herein are implementations of various technologies for a method for configuring a wireless seismic acquisition network. A plurality of seismic receivers may be positioned over a survey area in a fixed pattern. A first message may be received from the receivers. The first message may indicate one or more base stations that are available for transferring seismic data from the receivers to a recording system. A second message may be received from the base stations. The second message may indicate a maximum number of receivers for which each of the base stations can transfer seismic data. One of the base stations may be assigned to each receiver without exceeding the maximum number.
