Abstract: Implementations described herein relate to providing device messages in image compilations based on user content. A computer-implemented method includes determining that a playback mode is entered on a device to display one or more image compilations, each image compilation including images for successive display. Message criteria are obtained for device messages, each device message indicating a device function associated with images of the image compilations or of a user image library. A device message is selected based on associated message criteria. An image is identified in the user image library, the image being in the image compilations, depicts a type of image feature in the image compilations, and/or has characteristic(s) modifiable by the device function. The device message is displayed during image compilation playback and includes the identified image and a message control option. In response to user selection of the message control option, the device function is initiated.

Abstract: A smart molten metal pump system and method automatically controls the operating speed of the pump rather than requiring an operator to control the speed. The system includes a pump, a controller for controlling the speed of the pump and one or more vibration sensors (such as an accelerometer) to measure vibration. The controller receives input about the vibration of the pump or one or more pump components, and possibly other data, such as the temperature of the molten metal, and/or the depth of the molten metal, ad/or parameters related to the operation of the pump. The controller analyzes the one or more inputs to vary the speed of the pump, turn the pump off, and/or send a communication to an operator.

Abstract: A smart molten metal pump system and method automatically controls the operating speed of the pump rather than requiring an operator to control the speed. The system includes a pump, a controller for controlling the speed of the pump, and one or more of a temperature sensor (such as a thermocouple), one or more of a device (such as a laser or float) to measure the depth of the molten metal, and one or more of a vibration sensor (such as an accelerometer) to measure vibration. The controller receives input about the temperature of the molten metal, and/or about the depth of the molten metal, and/or about the vibration of the pump or one or more pump components, and possibly other data. The controller analyzes the one or more inputs to vary the speed of the pump, turn the pump off, and/or send a communication to an operator.
