Abstract: A rotary joint includes a shaft having a first end, a second end, and a cavity. The rotary joint includes a first waveguide section having a first proximal end and a first distal end. The first proximal end of the first waveguide section is positioned within the cavity and secured to the inner surface of the shaft. The rotary joint includes a second waveguide section that includes a second proximal end and a second distal end. The second proximal end of the second waveguide section is positioned within the cavity of the shaft and unsecured to the inner surface of the shaft to form a radial gap between an outer surface of the second proximal end and a laterally adjacent portion of the inner surface of the shaft. The shaft and the first waveguide section are configured to rotate about the rotational axis and relative to the second waveguide section.

Abstract: Techniques for managing a parts catalog of part objects corresponding to media content items are provided. Upon receiving a request to build a new part object for a part provider management system for a new content item, one embodiment collects a plurality of contribution references corresponding to a plurality of contributions relating to the new content item. A new part object is built based on the plurality of contributions and using a part creation graph corresponding to a type of the new content item. The new part object is published to a parts catalog for the part provider management system, for consumption by one or more downstream systems.

Abstract: Devices and methods are provided for determining video data using contributor trust scores. A device may receive first data associated with a video program, wherein the first data are received from a first contributor, the first contributor having a first reliability ranking. The device may receive second data associated with the video program, wherein the second data are received from a second contributor, the second contributor having a second reliability ranking. The device may determine that the first reliability ranking is higher than the second reliability ranking. The device may send the first data to a catalog including additional video data.

Abstract: A portable appliance with a housing defining a space for operating components. The operating components define an air moving mechanism for causing atmospheric air to be drawn into the housing space to at least one of: a) cool at least one of the operating components; b) be treated by at least one of the operating components; and c) cause movement of a fluid within the housing space. The housing has a first wall with a downwardly facing surface in which an inlet opening is defined through which atmospheric air is drawn into the housing space. The housing further has a spacing wall that underlies the inlet opening and bounds in conjunction with the first wall an intake space through which atmospheric air is guided in a generally horizontal path towards the inlet opening.

Abstract: Systems and methods for creating product advertising campaigns in accordance with embodiments of the invention are disclosed. In one embodiment, a product target generation server system includes a processor, product data including a plurality of attribute-value pairs describing a set of products, semantic models including data describing relationships between product targets, concepts described using categories and attribute-value pairs, and target grouping data constituting a set of groupings of product targets, global performance data including performance data, wherein the processor is configured to identify at least one category in a portion of the product data, determine a product advertising structure based on the product data and the identified at least one category, match a portion of the groupings of product data with the product targets within the global performance data, identify performance data, and generate at least one product target using the identified performance data and the product data.

Abstract: An apparatus for delivering humidified air to a surrounding space and having a housing defining a space within which incoming air is treated, a receptacle for a supply of fluid, and an outlet. A plurality of operating components are supported by the housing, including a nebulizer that causes fluid in the receptacle to become entrained in incoming air. The treated air flows through the housing outlet to the surrounding space. The nebulizer operable by at least one electronic component that generates heat as the nebulizer is operated. The apparatus further has a heat sink assembly on the housing in heat exchange relationship with the at least one electronic heat generating component. The heat sink assembly is: a) cooled by air moving through the housing space; and b) not directly exposed to fluid in the receptacle.

Abstract: A remote-controllable lighting device comprising a first substrate and an adjacent second substrate maintained in a spaced apart relationship to allow airflow therebetween and at least partly overlapping each other, at least the second substrates carrying thereon at least one emission sources, the first substrate being located towards a proximal end of the device and the second substrate being located towards a distal end of the device; said first substrate being arranged so as to allow light generated by the at least one located second light emission source to pass thereby in a direction defining a primary light emission direction and said first light emission source located so as to emit light in said primary light emission direction; said first and second substrate being in thermal communication so as to allow heat generated by the at least one light emission sources to flow between the substrates so as to provide thermal distribution between the substrates, the first and second substrate being formed of a
