Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for identifying rogue plants in an agricultural field. One example computer-implemented system includes accessing data specific to an agricultural field, where the data includes an image of the field captured, by at least one capture device, during a particular growth stage of a crop in the field. The method also includes applying a trained classifier model to the sub-images from the image and classifying, using the trained classifier model, each of the multiple plants included in the sub-images as a rogue plant or as not a rogue plant.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for using one or more components of a device, such as a camera, to generate complementary heat for the device, such as a camera lens of the device. In one aspect this can be accomplished by activating the one or more components and/or by causing the one or more components to operate in a particular manner expected to generate heat. The generated heat may be instead of or in addition to heat generated by one or more dedicated heaters. The selected components may produce heat as an incidental effect for performing other functions of the device.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses for power management of doorbell systems are described herein. A doorbell system comprising at least a camera and a chime may cause a connection to be established. The connection may be established between the camera at least one user device. A first indication to cause the chime to output a first audio notification may be received. Based on determining that the connection is established between the camera and the at least one user device, prevention of outputting the first audio notification by the chime may be caused.

Abstract: A device (e.g., a security device, a video doorbell, a security camera, etc.) may receive an input voltage and based on the input voltage may determine the input power available to the device. The device may access various power level requirements associated with one or more functional components associated with the device. The device may then determine one or more functional components to activate or set to an active status on the device based on the input power available to the device, component power level requirements for one or more of the functional components, and other factors such as priority levels and preferences.

Abstract: Described is a system and method for proactively determining and resolving events having low confidence scores and/or resolving disputed events. For example, when an event, such as a pick of an item from an inventory location within a materials handling facility occurs, the event aspects (e.g., user involved in the event, item involved in the event, action performed) are determined based on information provided from one or more input components (e.g., camera, weight sensor). If each event aspect cannot be determined with a high degree of confidence, the event information is provided to an associate for resolution.

Abstract: Doorbell systems can include a doorbell and a remote communication device. In some embodiments, the remote communication device can be communicatively coupled to a wireless network of a building, to the doorbell, and to a remote computing device. In several embodiments, the remote communication device facilitates communication with at least one of the doorbell, the remote computing device, and a remote sensor.

The at least one light can illuminate in a variety of colors and illumination patterns corresponding to the type of emergency event.

Abstract: Described is a system and method for presenting event information to a user and, if necessary, obtaining confirmation of different aspects (user, item, action) of the event. In some implementations, an event includes a user, an action, and an item. For example, an event may include a user picking an item from an inventory location, a user placing an item into a tote associated with the user, etc. if the aspects of the event cannot be determined with a high enough degree of confidence, a user interface may be generated and sent to the user requesting confirmation of one or more of the aspects of the event.

Abstract: Doorbells can send data to each other to enable a first doorbell user to warn a second doorbell user regarding a suspicious visitor. A first user can indicate a first trait of a visitor via a first remote computing device. The first user can create a user group to enable the members of the user group to use their doorbells to take pictures of suspicious visitors and to send the pictures of the suspicious visitors to other members of the user group.

Abstract: Various aspects described herein for implementing computer implemented techniques for facilitating promotional campaigns, market-making, and regulatory compliance activities relating to blockchain-based digital assets. At least one aspect of the present disclosure is directed to techniques for managing and facilitating transactions in digital assets and physical collectibles using blockchain technology, including minting, revealing, and offering automated buyback functionalities for Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) and Physical Collectibles (RWAs).

Abstract: A doorbell system can be used to block a first electricity that is less than a first threshold from entering an electronic chime. By blocking the first electricity from entering the electronic chime, the electronic chime is not allowed to emit a notification sound. The doorbell system can also be used to allow a second electricity that is greater than the first threshold to enter the electronic chime. By allowing the second electricity to enter the electronic chime, this can allow the electronic chime to emit a notification sound in response to a visitor being present.

Abstract: A product dispenser with a reservoir for a product and a cap. The cap has a first assembly and a second assembly. The first assembly can include a button configured to dispense the product through a lower end orifice of the pipette, when the button is actuated. The second assembly can include a pipette rigidly connected and in fluidic communication with a chamber configured to change its volume depending on the movement of the first assembly relative to the second assembly and the movement of the button.

Abstract: A security system can be configured to mount to a power outlet. The security system can include an outwardly facing portion configured to face away from the power outlet and an inwardly facing portion having a first electrical prong and a second electrical prong that protrude into the power outlet to mount the security system to the power outlet. The security system can also include a detection system comprising a camera and a motion detector.

Abstract: Doorbells often include a button to enable visitors to ring a chime to summon building occupants. In some embodiments, doorbells include a camera to take pictures of visitors. In several embodiments, doorbells include covers that are light filters. These light filters can cover infrared light sources such as infrared light emitting diodes. The light filters can pass infrared light while blocking visible light. In several embodiments, a front portion of a camera assembly fits through a hole in a light filter. Light filters can help secure camera assemblies and can form a portion of a doorbell's outer housing.

Abstract: A security system can include an electronic doorbell comprising a first camera configurable to capture an image of a first zone, a button configurable to enable a visitor to sound an electronic chime, and a first microphone configurable to capture sounds. The security system can also include an electronic garage door controller communicatively coupled to the electronic doorbell, the electronic garage door controller comprising a second camera configurable to capture an image of a second zone, and a second microphone configurable to capture sounds. The security system can also include a remote computing device communicatively coupled to at least one of the electronic doorbell and the electronic garage door controller. The remote computing device can be configurable to display at least one of the image of the first zone and the image of the second zone.
