Abstract: A head-mountable device can operate in concert with one or more optical assemblies thereof to provide multiple users with shared experiences and content enjoyment. Such operations can be facilitated by a connection between the head-mountable device and one or both of its optical assemblies to allow different users to receive content. Such a connection can be made possible by a communication link that directly and/or physically connects the head-mountable device and one or both of its optical assemblies when the one or both of the optical assemblies is removed from the head-mountable device for operation by a separate user. The ability to provide multiple outputs on separate components allows separate users to participate in a shared experience.

Abstract: A nitrogen liquefier configured to be integrated with an argon and nitrogen producing cryogenic air separation unit and method of nitrogen liquefaction are provided. The integrated nitrogen liquefier and associated methods may be operated in at least three distinct modes including: (i) a nil liquid nitrogen mode; (ii) a low liquid nitrogen mode; and (iii) a high liquid nitrogen mode. The present systems and methods are further characterized in an oxygen enriched stream from the lower pressure column of the air separation unit is an oxygen enriched condensing medium used in the argon condenser.

Abstract: A Ransomware Activity Detection System (RADS) characterizes historic read/write IO activity on a storage volume, and also characterizes historic data characteristics of the storage volume, such as the percentage reducibility of the data held in the storage volume. The RADS monitors the storage volume to identify differences between current read/write IO activity and historic read/write IO activity, as well as difference between current data characteristics of the storage volume and historic data characteristics of the storage volume. When the RADS detects a significant difference in read/write IO activity on a storage volume, that is coupled with a significant changes to the data characteristics of the storage volume, the RADS protects the storage volume and generates an alert of the possible occurrence of a ransomware attack. Protection may occur prior in connection with any bulk read operation to proactively protect storage volumes against ransomware attacks.

Abstract: A method for checking a level of damage of at least one part of an aircraft. According to the disclosure, such a method comprises at least: a collection step for receiving data representative of measurements of at least one flight parameter, the data being generated during a mission of the aircraft by at least one embedded sensor; a projection step for projecting points onto a map in order to form an image point; an identification step for identifying, for each image point, an image zone in which the image point is located; and an analysis step for statistically analyzing the identified image zones and determining the level of damage of the at least one aircraft part.

Abstract: A system and method for interference detection. The system and method receives flight data comprising a plurality of flights. The system and method identifies a plurality of signal drop events based on at least the flight data. The system and method determines one or more co-located signal drop event subsets based on at least the plurality of signal drop events and filter criteria. The system and method determines one or more interference events based on the one or more co-located signal drop event subsets, wherein each of the one or more co-located signal drop event subsets is based on at least two or more of the plurality of signal drop events.

Abstract: A data platform for managing an application as a first-class database object. The data object can include User Interface (UI) components. The data application can be shared by a provider account to a plurality of consumer accounts using a share object and based on grant commands. The consumer accounts can deploy and operate the UI component based on the share object.

Abstract: A stowable propulsion system for a marine vessel. A base is configured to be coupled to the marine vessel. A propulsion device is configured to propel the marine vessel in water. A shaft extends along a length axis and pivotably couples the propulsion device to the base. The propulsion device is pivotable into and between a stowed position and a deployed position, wherein pivoting the propulsion device causes the shaft to rotate about the length axis.

Abstract: Presently disclosed is a power production plant that is operable to store and generate power. In a “charge mode” (when electricity price is low), an air separation unit (ASU) cools and liquefies ambient air into liquid oxygen (LOx), which is then stored in a storage vessel. In a “discharge mode” (when electrical price is high), the stored LOx is used by the power production plant to combust a fuel and form a combustion product stream that can be expanded in a turbine to generate power. The power production plant particularly can utilize carbon dioxide as a recycled, circulating or working fluid so that substantially all carbon dioxide produced in the power production can be captured.

Abstract: Example embodiments relate to multiple operating modes to expand dynamic range. An example embodiment includes a camera system. The camera system may include a first image sensor having a first dynamic range corresponding to a first range of luminance levels in a scene. The system may also include a second image sensor having a second dynamic range corresponding to a second range of luminance levels in the scene. The camera system may further include a processor coupled to the first image sensor and the second image sensor. The processor may be configured to execute instructions to identify objects of a first type in a first image of the scene captured by the first image sensor and identify objects of a second object type in a second image of the scene captured by the second image sensor.

Abstract: A remote healthcare system is described. The remote healthcare system includes a system interface that includes patient and user interfaces in the form of electronic device applications that are accessed by a patient and a user, respectively. The remote healthcare communication system enables secure, HIPAA compliant phone, video, and data-sharing between the patient and user. During a video session, the user may be able to access the patient's medical records and/or other patient health-related data.

Abstract: A system for seed orientation includes a seed disk capable of rotation in operation and having at least one singulator to adjust an orientation of seed to a desired seed orientation for placement within a furrow during planting. A vision system in proximity to the seed disk determines seed orientation data for seed on the seed disk.
