Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for automated inspection and part enrollment. In one implementation, a selection of an area of a part is received within a graphical user interface depicting a representation of the part. Based on the selection of the area of the part, a location of the selected area is determined. Image capture parameter(s) are determined based on the determined location. Based on (a) the determined image capture parameters and (b) the location of the selected area, an inspection path is computed with respect to the part. The computed inspection path is executed with respect to the part via an inspection system.

Abstract: The present invention provides controllers, systems and methods that apply techniques for determining signal sequence characteristics that propagate through a sequence of buffers. One of the buffers represents buffering characteristics of a network through which the signal sequence propagates. The signal sequence may include packets of a media stream and the network may include a wireless network.

Abstract: A method is used to reduce a size of an electronic collection of media elements (41, 43, 45). The method includes the steps of assigning a weight to each media element (41, 43, 45) in the collection and reducing size of the media elements (41, 43, 45) in dependency of a desired overall collection size reduction and the weight assigned to each media element (41, 43, 45). An electronic device includes logic circuitry operative to perform the method of the invention.

Abstract: The invention relates to a transcoding system comprising an application platform and a transcoding platform for executing transcoding transactions that comprise the transmission of a request from the application platform to the transcoding platform, the execution of said request by said transcoding platform, and the transmission of a response to said application platform, said request and response having specific formats given in detailed tables. Moreover, the request has a transcoding parameter element comprising a transformation element that defines a transformation through which a content must go, amongst a plurality of supported transformations also defined in a detailed table.
