Abstract: A recipe is obtained from a user and a mixing machine is configured based on the recipe. A beverage is mixed based on the recipe and dispensed. The use of the recipe by the mixing machine is monitored and compensation for use of the recipe is determined based on the monitored use and the configuration of the mixing machine.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for an intelligent environmental drone are described. The aeronautical drone includes an environmental condition generator. A camera system is configured to capture an image of an environment near the aeronautical drone and an image and sensor processing module is configured to identify a target entity by processing the image captured by the camera system. A tracking and guidance module is configured to track the target entity and determine a location for the aeronautical drone to create a generated condition area of a specified size and location and to position the generated condition area around the target entity.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for controlling a speed regulator are described. A monitor detects a speed of a vehicle. A speed regulator controller retracts the speed regulator from an extended configuration to a retracted configuration based on the detected speed in response to the vehicle traveling at a speed less than a defined speed, the speed regulator being configurable to extend and retract.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for a speed regulator. A casing comprises a plurality of flat shutters, the casing configured to protrude in an extended configuration and to lay flat in a retracted configuration. A plurality of plates are configured to rotate between the extended configuration and the retracted configuration, and configured to configure the plurality of shutters in the extended configuration and the retracted configuration.

Abstract: A candlewick includes a flotation device, a wick, and a bracket configured to position a first portion of the wick above a waterline of the flotation device and to position a second portion of the wick below a waterline of the flotation device.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for controlling an air flow are described. A monitor obtains an environmental parameter and an air deflector controls the air flow exiting an air duct. An air deflector actuator configures the air deflector, the configuration of the air deflector being based on the environmental parameter.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for an intelligent protective drone are described. The aeronautical drone comprises an environmental protective shield that provides protection from environmental elements. An image of an environment near the aeronautical drone is captured and processed to identify a target entity. A geographic location of an effective protective area provided by the environmental protective shield is identified and a location for the aeronautical drone is determined that places the target entity within the effective protective area.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for performing a work-driven game are described. An indication of a completion of a performance of a work event is obtained from a work processing system, the work event contributing to a production of a work product. A completion of a performance of an exercise event is obtained from an exercise machine. A combined value of the work event and the exercise event is determined and a gaming asset associated with the work-driven game is awarded in a game processing system in response to the indication of the completion of the performance of the work event and the completion of the performance of the exercise event, the gaming asset awarded being based on the combined value.
