Abstract: Data processing systems and methods, according to various embodiments, are adapted for determining a categorization for each tracking tool that executes on a particular webpage based on a variety of criteria, such as the purpose of the tracking tool and its source script. The system may compare the characteristics of tracking tools on a webpage to a database of known tracking tools to determine the appropriate categorization. When a user visits the webpage, the system analyzes these categories and determines whether the tracking tool should be permitted to run based on the categories and/or other criteria, such as whether the user has consented to the use of that type of tracking tool.

Abstract: A telepresence robot may include a drive system, a control system, an imaging system, and a mapping module. The mapping module may access a plan view map of an area and tags associated with the area. In various embodiments, each tag may include tag coordinates and tag information, which may include a tag annotation. A tag identification system may identify tags within a predetermined range of the current position and the control system may execute an action based on an identified tag whose tag information comprises a telepresence robot action modifier. The telepresence robot may rotate an upper portion independent from a lower portion. A remote terminal may allow an operator to control the telepresence robot using any combination of control methods, including by selecting a destination in a live video feed, by selecting a destination on a plan view map, or by using a joystick or other peripheral device.

Abstract: A core remover for removing cores from paper rolls comprising a two-piece heating conducting tube, the top part of the tube having, a smooth tapered tip, containing a thermostat bulb and a heating element for heating the tube, and the connection elements for the thermostat and heating element extending downward through the bottom part of the tube and to the thermostat. The thermostat and heating element are connected so that control of the temperature of the heating element and tube may be made. A core with paper wrapped around it is placed over the tube and heated for a few seconds to loosen the glue. Following that, the core is manually removed and at the same time or after, the inner most sheet of paper is pulled about 2 inches from the center of the paper roll.
