Abstract: A method includes, generating a schedule for an asset tag, the schedule defining: a unicast trigger time for transmission of a unicast trigger to the asset tag; a transmit time succeeding receipt of the multicast trigger; and a wake window intersecting the transmit time and the receipt of the multiact trigger. The method also includes transmitting the schedule from a node network to the asset tag and configuring the asset tag based on the schedule. The method also includes, at the node network, broadcasting the unicast trigger and, at an asset tag: entering a wake mode; receiving the unicast trigger; transmitting a ranging signal; and entering the sleep mode. The method further includes, at the node network: deriving location of the asset tag based on instance of the ranging signal received by nodes in the node network.

Abstract: Medical devices configured for in vivo assays of one or more analytes can sometimes be problematic if left inserted in a tissue, such as skin, for an extended time. Certain medical device surface profiles may aid in alleviating this issue. Accordingly, medical devices may comprise a base surface having a tissue-facing surface profile defined thereon, and a sensor extending through the base surface and at least a portion of the tissue-facing surface profile. The tissue-facing surface profile deviates from the base surface, and the tissue-facing surface profile is also configured to undergo a change in shape, hardness, or a combination thereof after contacting a tissue for a length of time. A dynamic material may be present in at least a portion of the tissue-facing surface profile.

Abstract: Examples disclosed herein involve a computing system configured to (i) receive, from an image-capture device, image-capture metadata that provides information about a set of images that were passively captured by the image-capture device, (ii) based at least on the received image-capture metadata, apply a collection policy for determining whether to collect any of the set of images that have been passively captured by the image-capture device and thereby determine that a selected subset of one or more images in the set of images are to be collected from the image-capture device, (iii) instruct the image-capture device to upload the selected subset of one or more images, and (iv) after instructing the image-capture device to upload the selected subset of one or more images, receive the selected subset of one or more images from the image-capture device.

Abstract: A medical gown (701) includes a layer of material (100) with a seam (401) disposed across the layer of material. The material can include a weave (110) of untwisted, continuous filament polyester. The material can also include a carbon filament (109). The seam is sealed by applying a tape (200) across the seam and applying heat to cause the tape to attach to the weave.

Abstract: Experiment performance data associated with a first advertisement campaign is generated during a first advertisement campaign experiment. The experiment performance data includes a first set of experiment performance data and a second set of experiment performance data. A first set of simulated performance data for the first advertisement campaign using first set of auction instances with the advertisement campaign setting having second advertisement campaign value is generated. A second set of simulated performance data for the first advertisement campaign using the second set of auctions instances with the advertisement campaign setting having the first advertisement campaign value is generated. Accuracy of the first set of performance data and the second set of performance data is determined by comparing the first performance data to the second set of experiment performance data, and by comparing the second performance data to the first set of experiment performance data.
