  • Publication number: 20240095784
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for server-side contextual analysis of content available at a given uniform resource identifier (URI), which utilizes headless browser techniques to analyze a more complete and accurate version of page content than using existing techniques. For example, systems and methods are described for performing contextual analysis of content that would typically be displayed to a client device but is not included in an HTML file or other initial page source file available at the initially provided URI. The contextual analysis performed may include analyzing text using natural language processing and analyzing images using computer vision techniques.

  • Patent number: 9791568
    Abstract: A sensing device is for sensing an outer surface of a roll of material. An infrared (IR) laser source is configured to direct IR laser radiation to the outer surface of the roll of material. A single photon avalanche diode (SPAD) detector is configured to receive reflected IR laser radiation from the outer surface of the roll of material. A controller is coupled to the IR laser source and the SPAD detector to determine a distance to the outer surface of the roll of material based upon a time-of-flight of the IR laser radiation.

  • Patent number: 9409513
    Abstract: A braking intensity indicator system for a vehicle of a type that includes a foot operated brake pedal and at least one brake light may include a proximity sensor to be associated with the brake pedal and a controller. The controller may be configured to cooperate with the proximity sensor to determine a plurality of brake pedal positions versus time during foot operation of the brake pedal, and selectively adjust an intensity of the at least one brake light based upon the determined plurality of brake pedal positions versus time.
