  • Publication number: 20240095702
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide for verifying user-generated content (UGC). When the UGC is a review of an entity of a good or service, the review is verified when a UGC verification system determines that the user authoring the review was a consumer of a good or service offered by the entity. At the time of a transaction for a good or service, the UGC verification system can receive and respond to a request by a point-of-sale (POS) system to generate a unique encoding. The POS system may be implemented on a device in communication with, but separate from, a platform implementing the UGC verification system. The UGC verification system tracks receipt of requests to access a content form for leaving a review, so as to ensure that each generated encoding is only used to access the content form once.

  • Patent number: 11926474
    Abstract: A refuse vehicle includes a body defining a storage compartment, a packer, a hydraulic system, a pressure sensor, and a controller. The hydraulic system includes a first pump and a second pump are configured to supply fluid power to a packer actuator. The packer actuator is coupled to the packer and the body and is positioned to move the packer to compact refuse within the storage compartment. The pressure sensor indicates a measured pressure a first fluid associated with the first pump or a second fluid associated with the second pump. The controller is configured to control the hydraulic system to supply fluid power to the packer actuator to move the packer. The controller is further configured to determine that (a) one or more other vehicle functions are active or (b) the measured pressure exceeds a threshold pressure. The controller is further configured to reduce the fluid power supplied to the packer actuator in response to the determination.

  • Publication number: 20210159478
    Abstract: An electrode assembly includes a first substrate, a first active material composite coating the first substrate, a first electrode tab is formed by an uncoated portion of the first substrate that extends continuously between a first end and a second end of the first substrate. The assembly further includes a second elongate substrate, a second active material composite coating the second substrate, and a second electrode tab formed by an uncoated portion of the second substrate that extends continuously between a first end and a second end of the second substrate. An electrically-insulative separator is between the first substrate and the second substrate. The first substrate and second substrate, stacked together with the separator located between them, are then rolled about a central axis to form a jelly roll.

  • Patent number: 10298422
    Abstract: A multi-stage amplifier circuit equalizes an input signal through multiple signal amplification paths. DC gain is kept substantially constant over frequency, while adjustable high-frequency gain provides equalization (e.g., peaking). Various embodiments include a common source topology, a common gate topology, differential signaling topologies, and a topology suitable for stabilizing a voltage supply against high-frequency transient loads. A system may include one or more integrated circuits that may each include one or more instances of the multi-stage amplifier.

  • Patent number: 10275858
    Abstract: Representative embodiments disclose mechanisms to flatten an image comprising at least one curved or bent edge. An image is received from a capture device and a UI is presented that allows a user to define a general vicinity of an item in the image to be flattened. The system analyzes pixels in the general vicinity to identify the highest probability of a corner in each general vicinity. The gradient of pixels between the corners is calculated and pixels scores are calculated based on the gradient. The pixels with the lowest scores between each corner are used as an edge. Smoothing is applied to each edge. Dimensions of the flat representation are calculated and the system maps pixels bounded by the edges and corners to pixels in the flat representation and copies the mapped pixels to the flat representation.

  • Patent number: 10075327
    Abstract: The subject disclosure is directed towards a technology that automatically mitigates datacenter failures, instead of relying on human intervention to diagnose and repair the network. Via a mitigation pipeline, when a network failure is detected, a candidate set of components that are likely to be the cause of the failure is identified, with mitigation actions iteratively targeting each component to attempt to alleviate the problem. The impact to the network is estimated to ensure that the redundancy present in the network will be able to handle the mitigation action without adverse disruption to the network.
