Abstract: A method of initiating an auto-secure operation associated with a movable barrier operator, the method including: capturing, via a camera system, image data associated with a region of interest associated with the camera system; processing, via a processor, the image data to determine whether a person is present in the image data; transmitting a person detection signal from the processor to an access control platform component based on determining the person is present in the image data; formulating, by the access control platform component, a person detected notification in response to receiving the person detection signal; transmitting the person detected notification to a user device; and initiating, by the access control platform component in response to receiving the person detection signal, an auto-secure operation including sending a close command to a movable barrier operator to cause the movable barrier operator to close a movable barrier.

Abstract: An incorrect copy of a record of data can be prevented from being transmitted to a distributed ledger system. A first file can be received and can include information, in audio or video form, with a description of a subject matter of the record of data and with an authorization to transmit the copy to the distributed ledger system. The first file can be sent to a device. A second file can be received from the device and can include information that confirms that the description of the subject matter, included in the first file, is correct, and that confirms that an entity, which controlled production of the first file, has permission to authorize causing the copy to be transmitted to the distributed ledger system. The correct copy can be caused, based on a receipt of the first and the second files, to be transmitted to the distributed ledger system.

Abstract: A microwave oven deodorant device includes a microwave safe bag having an interior space, and a plurality of apertures. An absorbent member is positioned within the interior space and is coated with a liquid based scented fragrance. A cover is removably positioned onto the bag so as to cover each of the apertures to create an airtight environment within the bag. Upon removal of the cover, and receiving heat from an oven, the scented material produces steam that escapes through the apertures.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a product comprising: a container (1) having a volume Vc, sealed by a sealing (6), and a dairy composition (2), having a volume Vd, which is comprised in the sealed container, characterized in that the dairy composition comprises caseinomacropeptide (CMP) and 0.60<Vd/Vc<0.72. The dairy composition is preferably a fermented dairy composition. Preferably the dairy composition or fermented dairy composition comprises CMP at a concentration of at least 0.3%. Further claimed is a fermented dairy composition comprising CMP as well as the use of CMP as a foaming agent in fermented dairy compositions.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems and methods for securing one or more printed circuit boards to a substrate. The substrate may include retention tabs that form a receiving slot that receives an edge of the printed circuit board. The retention tabs and printed circuit board may have corresponding engaging features designed to retain the printed circuit board within the receiving slot and that, in some embodiments, can permit slight movement of the printed circuit board within the receiving slot to accommodate any thermal expansion of the board during use.

Abstract: A requester requests a secure certificate for a domain name from a validating entity, such as a certification authority. To verify that the requestor has control over the domain name, the validating entity generates a pass string. The requestor enters the pass string into a domain zone. The validating entity determines if the pass string was entered in the domain zone. If the pass string is present in the domain zone, the validating entity may issue the secure certificate. If the pass string is not in the domain zone, the validating entity may deny issuing the secure certificate to the requestor.
