Abstract: An Augmented Reality (AR) wayfinder tracks the current location of a user within an indoor location relative to a path defined through the indoor location for the user. The path is broken into segments, each segment is a straight line between two nodes, and each node represents either a starting point in the path, a turn along the path, or an ending point in the path. As the user traverses the path, a remaining distance between the user device and the next node in the path is calculated. An AR object with attributes that correlate to the remaining distance to the next node is blended into and superimposed into a video that the user is viewing through the user device of the physical environment as the user travels along the path.

Abstract: A method of plugging channels of a honeycomb body and a honeycomb body including plugged channels. The method includes applying a shear force to a plugging mixture including a plurality of inorganic particles, clay, and a liquid vehicle to alter the viscosity of the plugging mixture from a first viscosity prior to the vibrating to a second viscosity which is less than the first viscosity. A honeycomb body is placed into contact with the plugging mixture such that a portion of the plugging mixture having the second viscosity flows into the plurality of channels. Application of the shear force is stopped or reduced to increase the viscosity of the portion of the plugging mixture in the plurality of channels to greater than the first viscosity.

Abstract: A trench-less plug assembly having a fluid release element, further including: a top retaining ring, a bottom retaining ring, a plurality of rods vertically connecting the top retaining ring to the bottom retaining ring. A retaining plug is adapted to traverse vertically along the plurality of rods, and a main fitting adapted for receiving the bottom retaining ring. A gasket is disposed between the main fitting and the retaining plug. The plurality of rods engage the retaining plug with threads, whereby the retaining plug is positioned vertically between the top retaining ring and the bottom retaining ring by rotational movement of the retaining plug. The main fitting is adapted to attach to a main pipeline, and the main fitting is adapted to receive a riser enclosing the fluid release element. In one example, the main fitting attaches to a main pipeline using a saddle.

Abstract: An interface for displaying supplemental dynamic timeline content, such as in connection with the output of content is described. Upon reception of a selection of a selectable element associated with a supplemental content item in the content, an updated supplemental timeline indicating one or more time periods at which the supplemental content item is output in the primary content is output.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for presenting content with time-based metadata. Methods may comprise transmitting the time-based metadata to a playback device. The time-based metadata may comprise a plurality of time stamps that are triggerable at different points of a timeline of content and one or more of the time stamps may be associated with corresponding metadata content. The playback device may trigger a sequence of time stamps of the time-based metadata and the triggered sequence of time stamps may be synchronized with the occurrence of one or more events in the timeline of the content.

Abstract: ‘Cherry Parfait #19’ is a new variety most notably characterized by its fruit. It has the combination of a pink color and a distinct citrus flavor having highlights of lemon, grapefruit, orange and mango. The fruit is firm and crisp, but easily broken apart between the cell walls of the fruit. The ‘Cherry Parfait #19’ is a ramified type of tree with a spreading tree habit.

Abstract: ‘Honeysuckle Rose #1-6’ is a new variety derived from ‘Simmons Gala’ characterized by a unique red tint extending into the flesh and a combination of crispness, a thick fruit skin, long stem, resistance to early fruit drop, resistance to fire blight, and late ripening.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of operating a quilting or sewing machine. In the method, an operator may switch the modes in which the sewing machine is operating. The modes may be switched when the sewing machine is in operation or when the machine is stopped. The modes to which the sewing machine may be switched to and from may be pre-set modes as defined by an operator. The modes that may be switched to and from may include settings for stitch mode and stitch speed. The buttons may be physical buttons associated with the sewing machine's handles, or they may be digital buttons associated with a tablet device.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system and method for rendering media related content and web services. According to one or more embodiments, media content is rendered from a source. In one or more segments of the media source, at least one of an object, person or location is identified and additional information, relevant content or services about the person, object or location are displayed or made accessible while or after the media content is being rendered, on one or more devices and/or on one or more paired devices.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a quilting machine and more specifically a long-arm stitching machine, or stitcher. The stitcher includes handles that are used to trace a laser dot on a pantograph pattern located in front of the fabric being quilted. Tracing the laser dot ensures that the needle and thread associated with the sewing machine head duplicates the pattern being traced. In the present invention, the handles are placed to one side of the sewing machine head to allow an operator to remain upright when watching the laser trace the pattern or the needle and thread quilting the fabric.

Abstract: A member for cooperation with the stator of an electric machine and for mounting electrical connectors to the stator is provided. The member includes a body, a mounting feature and a receptacle. The mounting feature is operably associated with the body and is adapted for mounting the body onto the stator. The receptacle is operably associated with the body and is adapted for receiving at least a portion of one of the electrical connectors.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a sewing machine, specifically a long-armed stitcher. The present invention includes a computer device that may store pantograph patterns therein. The data including the pantograph patterns may be sent to projection units associated with the sewing machine head of the long-armed stitcher. The projection units use projection elements to project the pantograph patterns on the fabric to be stitched, allowing an operator of the stitcher to trace the projected pattern with a needle associated with the sewing machine head. Measurement devices associated with the sewing machine head determine head movement and alter the projected pattern accordingly such that the needle of the sewing head may continue to follow the pantograph pattern despite the head having moved in order to trace the pattern.
