  • Patent number: 11944029
    Abstract: Methods, systems and devices for mobile detection of soil compaction and soil characteristic data are provided. Operations include causing a subsurface portion of soil at a compaction detection location to be disrupted using compressed air, generating disruption data corresponding to the disruption of the subsurface portion of the soil at the compaction detection location, generating geographic location data corresponding to the compaction detection location, receiving the geographic location data from the location device and the disruption data from the disruption sensor and associating the geographic location data with the disruption data.

  • Publication number: 20240098108
    Abstract: A cluster of network flows is formed on the basis of a particular entity-to-entity relationship, and individual network flows within the cluster are further identified on an application-by-application basis to better characterize communications between two compute instances connected through a data network. By individually scoring network flows for each application with a variety of tools, and aggregating these individual scores into a composite score for the cluster of network flows, more accurate threat detections can be supported based on an increase in relevant threat data and a more complete view of risk factors.

  • Publication number: 20230413715
    Abstract: Methods, systems and devices for determining optimized tillage of a soil area are provided. Operations include transmitting, using at least one sensor, a data set regarding a physical, chemical and/or biological aspect of the soil area. Operations include receiving, using at least one computing device, the data set regarding the physical, chemical and/or biological aspect of the soil area. The at least one computing device removes a set of redundant data and the at least one computing device enhances a set of data that is not the set of redundant data. Operations include generating a visualization of the set of data that is not redundant data. The data that is not redundant data provides a data set reflecting a soil compaction measurement within the soil area and the soil area is not deeper than 36 inches from a surface of the soil area.

  • Publication number: 20130066666
    Abstract: Enhancing crop performance using a computer coupled to a memory, including receiving a plurality of area of interest (AOI) raster files from a remote sensing device via a network, and generating at least one index raster file based on the plurality of AOI raster files. At least one yield zone is defined within the AOI based on the at least one index raster file, and a hybrid and a seed rate are determined for the hybrid for use in planting in the at least one yield zone. A planting recommendation is generated for the AOI based on the hybrid and the seed rate and is delivered to a planter, wherein the planter is configured to plant the at least one yield zone using the hybrid and the seed rate.

  • Publication number: 20120021386
    Abstract: Embodiments of this invention relate to a method and apparatus for providing information about a vehicle for training a driver. Vehicle data is received from a vehicle data gathering mechanism (104) associated with a vehicle (100). Image data from an image data gathering mechanism (102) associated with the vehicle is then received. The image data is then overlaid with cotemporaneous vehicle data. The image data is then stored with the overlaid vehicle data in computer memory (108). Other embodiments are disclosed in this application.

  • Patent number: 7496666
    Abstract: A system for connecting multiple users to multiple computers uses a switch for making and breaking connections between individual computers and input/output devices such as display screens, keyboards and pointing devices at user locations. A supervisory computer system includes one or more helper computers which run programs to aid the user in selecting connections to be made. The switch is arranged to capture preselected input sequences as designating commands, such as a command to connect the helper computer, and to forward these to the supervisory computer system. The supervisory computer system actuates the switch in response to these commands so that the user can establish communication with the helper computer.
