  • Publication number: 20250010210
    Abstract: In a video game message generation system, a first neural network may analyze a player's gameplay data in real time to determine a moment of gameplay to record. A recording module records the moment of gameplay determined with the first trained neural network. A second trained neural network determines one or more recipients for the recording of the determined moment and a third trained neural network operable drafts a message associated with the determined moment to the determined recipient(s). A user interface presents the player an opportunity send the recording of the determined moment and the one or more messages to the one or more recipients.

  • Publication number: 20200397153
    Abstract: This disclosure presents a product display and merchandising device, system and method that may include multiple such product displays and merchandising devices, and a method for dispensing products to customers using such product display and merchandising device. The merchandising system may efficiently utilize storage space and provide an aesthetic display by automatically aligning different products to a front display surface. The merchandising system may use multiple holders or clips on a conveyor belt to hang and display products. A customer may pull and remove a front piece of the products. As the customer pulls the front piece of merchandise or product, the action moves the conveyor belt and brings a next piece of products forward, to the position that the front piece of the product previously occupied. As such, the merchandising system may enable customers to freely remove products and maintain a tidy and neat display of the products.

  • Publication number: 20180035486
    Abstract: An offset is monitored which is applied by at least one access node (100) of a cellular network to adapt a signal quality value determined for a radio connection to a communication device (10). The adapted signal quality value is applied in a first control loop to select, a modulation and coding scheme for the radio connection. The offset is adapted in a second control loop, starting from an initial value and depending on feedback information concerning transmissions on the radio connection. Depending on the monitored offset, the initial value of the offset to be applied by the at least one access node (100) with respect to further radio connections to communication devices is determined.

  • Patent number: 9816437
    Abstract: This is a system that stores energy by compressing atmospheric air and confining it in tanks or caverns, combining the thermodynamic cycle followed by the atmospheric air (Brayton cycle) with another thermodynamic cycle followed by an auxiliary fluid, that is confined in the same cavern within a membrane, following two sections of a Rankine cycle, one during the air compression and entry into the cavern process and the other during the air outlet and turbining process, using heat from the exhaust gases from the turbine as a heat source for an additional Rankine cycle, and being able to use the tanks or caverns for making an extra constant volume heating of compressed air and/or of the auxiliary fluid.
