Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for multimodal asynchronous transportation. In one embodiment, an example system may include a portable conveyor assembly configured to receive one or more items, the portable conveyor assembly including a conveyor belt, a drive motor, and a magnet. The portable conveyor assembly may be configured to couple to an item sortation system to receive sorted items, and to couple to a vehicle for transportation of the portable conveyor assembly from the item sortation system to a different system of a fulfillment center.

Abstract: Systems and methods for improving, among other things, the commission and maintenance checks of material handling equipment are described. In an example, sensor data may be generated based on movement of test equipment by a material handling equipment along a path between locations of a facility. The path may be associated with movement of an item by the material handling equipment. The sensor data may be associated with different conditions along the path. The test may include a plurality of sensors configured to generate the sensor data. Based on the sensor data, an indication of a location along the path and a condition may be provided. The condition may be associated with the location along the path and may affect movement of the item at the location. The indication may be provided to a user equipment that is remote from the test equipment.

Abstract: Systems and methods for deduplication and disambiguation are disclosed. In example embodiments, a server accesses stored information about a first entity and stored information about a second entity. The server determines, based on the accessed stored information about the first entity and the accessed stored information about the second entity, a set of information items known about both the first entity and the second entity. The server computes, based on the set of information items, a probability that the first entity corresponds to the second entity by computing one or more expressiveness scores corresponding to a value of a first information item and a value of a second information item from the set of information items. The server provides, as a digital transmission, an output representing the computed probability.

Abstract: A bowling ball with an indicia is provided. A method for manufacturing such a bowling ball is also provided. The indicia may be preformed and attached to the core of the bowling ball before the outer layer of the bowling ball is created.
