Abstract: A storage, retrieval and processing system for processing objects is disclosed. The storage, retrieval and processing system includes a plurality of storage bins providing storage of a plurality of objects, where the plurality of storage bins is in communication with a retrieval conveyance system, a programmable motion device in communication with the retrieval conveyance system for receiving the storage bins from the plurality of bins, where the programmable motion device includes an end effector for grasping and moving a selected object out of a selected storage bin, and a movable carriage for receiving the selected object from the end effector of the programmable motion device, and for carrying the selected object to one of a plurality of destination bins.

Abstract: An opposed piston combustion engine is revealed that uses a crank to actuate one piston while using a cam to actuate a second piston within a shared cylinder. This engine allows crank leverage, compression, and ignition to occur closer together for a more efficient opposed piston engine.

Abstract: The invention generally relates to a facility wide sorting and/or sequencing system for improving product processing operations and, more particularly, to a facility wide system and related functionality for simultaneously sorting and sequencing mixed mail pieces such as, for example, flats and letter mail pieces. The flats and letter mail pieces are placed in frames so that all types of mail pieces can be sorted and/or sequenced simultaneously through merging and diverting a stream of filled trays into and out of different streams at a full or substantially full transport speed.

Abstract: Systems and methods of providing a content feed in an entry site for a user device accessing a network device, such as a wireless network access device, are provided. Content items may be gathered. Whether a whether a first user device is accessing a first network device configured to provide wireless network access at a first location in a first geographical area may be determined. A first entry site for the first user device to access network resources through the network device may be managed. One or more of the content items may be selected for the first entry site based on selection criteria particular to the first location. The one or more content items may be incorporated into a first content feed. The first content feed may be provided to the user device.

Abstract: A vehicle moving apparatus includes a torque transmitter (16) positioned on the outer circular plane of a wheel with a tire (15). A collar (50), is positioned on the inside circular plane of the tire (15) and flexible linear-force elements (31), routed radially around the outer diameter of the tire (15), connect the collar (50) to the torque transmitter (16). A source of torque or a torque arm (71) can be connected to the torque transmitter (16) that enables a single user to move a vehicle.

Abstract: The present invention relates to systems and methods for the peer review, originality analysis, and contextual mark-up of formatted electronic documents. In particular, the present invention provides systems and methods that utilize layered peer review, originality analysis and contextual markup modules in one view. These systems and methods have many applications, including use for online editing and education.

Abstract: The present invention relates to systems that search documents and highlight occurrences of text found in previously published documents, publications, Internet websites and electronic documents. In particular, the present invention relates to originality assessment of a variety of documents (e.g., student papers, college admissions essays, PhD theses, magazines, newspapers, and book publications).

Abstract: Systems for removing or attenuating friction and/or click noise generated during writing with a smart pen are disclosed. In a smart pen, the writing cartridge is biased towards a first side of the smart pen internal cavity by a low-force biasing system without affecting writing cartridge movement. For example, the writing cartridge is comprised of a magnetic material and a magnet is embedded into the first side of the smart pen internal cavity to bias the writing cartridge towards the first side. Alternatively, the material comprising the writing cartridge or smart pen internal cavity is modified, reducing friction between the components. As another alternative, a DSP method identifies analyzes one or more parameters of received audio data to differentiate click noise from audio data, and may receive data from a movement sensor indicating when the writing cartridge has moved to reduce power consumption for identifying click noise.
