  • Patent number: 11399283
    Abstract: Systems and methods provide for provisioning network access using a tenant service set identifier (SSID) or an SSID of a specified duration and distributed authorization. A network management system can provision a wireless local area network (WLAN) and the SSID in an access point to enable a primary guest device to access the WLAN for a specified time period (e.g., a start time and end time). The network management system can cause the SSID and authentication data (e.g., authentication token, Pre-Shared Key (PSK), etc.) to be transmitted for receipt by the first client device. After the start time and in response to successfully authenticating the first client device, the first client device can authorize a second client device to access the WLAN. The network management system or the AP can disable access to the network via the SSID at the end time.

  • Patent number: 11393135
    Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods for using a deformation model of a first object that is within a degree of similarity to a second object instead of creating a deformation model for the second object. In some implementations, a method includes obtaining an input to instantiate a first object in a graphical environment. The first object is characterized by a first set of response parameter values. A second object is identified. The second object is characterized by a second set of response parameter values that are within a threshold range of the first set of response parameter values. A deformation model of the second object is obtained. The deformation model defines a change in a visual property of the second object based on a condition. A change in a visual property of the first object is displayed based on the deformation model of the second object.

  • Patent number: 11341704
    Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods for selectively applying a tool and/or a rig to a skeleton of an object based on an upcoming motion. In some implementations, a method includes obtaining, from a memory location, a response characteristic to be exhibited by an object while displaying the object in a computer graphics environment. A tool is selected that allows the object to be manipulated to exhibit the response characteristic in the computer graphics environment. The tool is associated with a skeleton of the object. A manipulation of the object is displayed within the computer graphics environment in accordance with the response characteristic after associating the tool with the skeleton of the object.

  • Publication number: 20220023536
    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques and a device operable to determine a total amount of insulin delivered to the user over a predetermined time period. The total amount of insulin includes a total basal dosage delivered in basal dosages and a total bolus dosage delivered in bolus dosages over the predetermined time period. A proportion of the total amount of insulin delivered to the user provided via the total basal dosage amount over the predetermined time period is calculated. In response determining the proportion of the total amount of insulin attributed to the total basal dosage amount of insulin exceeds a threshold, an average basal dosage to be delivered within a subsequent time period that is approximately equal to the threshold may be determined. An instruction may be generated and output to deliver a modified basal dosage that substantially maintains the average basal dosage over the subsequent time period.

  • Publication number: 20210283720
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods of manufacturing a workpiece fixture (10) and also a target material fixture (10), for use in precision manufacturing processes. A sheet material is supported on a generic material fixture (10) and the sheet material precision processed to form support blades (16, 18) for a target workpiece fixture (10). Each support blade (16, 18) has a support locus and interstices are positioned in the support loci where a target pattern and the support loci coincide. Thus, there are no unnecessary clearances between the workpiece support (10) and the workpiece. The interstices that are present are located only where necessary to reduce or eliminate any interference between the precision manufacturing process and the fixture (10), when it is used in a precision process involving the target pattern.
