Abstract: An image recognition-based configuration/authorization method for video security systems is disclosed. The method includes detecting a code label within video captured by a security camera that is part of a security system. The method also includes carrying out image recognition on an image, within which is depicted the code label, and taken from the captured video. The carrying out image recognition includes extracting token identification data and an address for a network addressable authorization entity.

Abstract: Device configurations for a machine-learned model. A device analytics system includes an electronic processor configured to determine, for a machine-learned model configured to detect a plurality of features, a prioritization ranking for a plurality of input parameters provided to the machine-learned model and receive, for each device, a confidence value for each feature included in the plurality of features. The electronic processor is configured to determine, for each device included in the plurality of devices, a performance value for each feature included in the plurality of features based on the prioritization ranking for the plurality of input parameters and the confidence value for each feature for the respective device. The electronic processor is configured to select, based on the performance value for each device included in the plurality of devices for a feature, a device configuration for the machine-learned model, and implement the selected device configuration.

Abstract: Method and 3D modeling server (110) to generate a 3D model. The method includes receiving first images captured by a camera (320) corresponding to an incident scene and receiving first metadata generated by a time-of-flight sensor (325) corresponding to the first images. The method also includes generating a 3D model at a first resolution including a plurality of 3D points based on the first images and the first metadata and identifying a first incident-specific point of interest from the first images. The method further includes transmitting for recapturing the first incident-specific point of interest and receiving second images captured of the first incident-specific point of interest. The method also includes receiving second metadata generated corresponding to the second images and updating a first portion of the 3D model corresponding to the first incident-specific point of interest to a second resolution based on the second images and the second metadata.

Abstract: A process of requesting and providing an anonymization service for sharing images or videos capturing identity of persons. An anonymization server receives a request including information corresponding to an identifier identifying the image or the video, a region within the image or video in which an identity of a person is captured, an encryption key used to encrypt the region of the image or the video, and contact information of the person. When the anonymization server receives a request from the second agency to share an encryption key for decrypting the region, the server transmits a request to the person to provide a permission to deanonymize the identity of the person captured in the image or video. The anonymization server transmits a response including the encryption key to the second agency when a response indicating a permission is received from the person.

Abstract: A turbulence-controlled vacuum debris removal subsystem safely exhausts particles ejected during photoablation. Nested interconnected chambers provide diminishing sweeping gas partial pressure and diminishing turbulence, ejecting particles from the ablation beam path between pulses, without compromising continuing particle conductance. Removal rate (debris generation rate) depends on conductance and particle sizes. The chambers interconnect through metering holes which enable optimization of partial pressure differentials. Controlled flow accomplishes debris removal, reducing turbulence of the mixture of debris and sweeping gases. A preferred embodiment uses a nest of concentric chambers, providing a clear light path. Another preferred embodiment uses orifices on chamber faces for removal and forming an envelope of gas around the processing region for dynamically containing the ejected particulate matter from the ablation site to the exhaust.

Abstract: Portable personal water purifier with a microdischarge array sealed with a radiation emitter, preferably Xel, slightly above atmospheric or water pressure in a closely-configured treatment chamber. Each array is a polyimide film separating a copper layer or mesh cathode surface from a conductor pattern of nickel anodes at UV pixel via sites, juxtaposed in effective purifying range of all the water. In a canteen embodiment, the array is presented as a divider in the water chamber, or at its sides. In a continuous-flow embodiment, the array is presented as a spiral flow-through packet between input and output connections axial to a cylindrical water jacket. Battery or plug power is provided, along with any desired input filter. Two microdischarge arrays are preferably sealed in a twin-pack about a set of stiffener rods, extending outward for re-assembly in sockets after cleaning. Other separation assurance devices are spiral and chain separators.

Abstract: An alignable, low-profile substrate chuck for processing, one by one, a number of substrate panels, which may be larger than the chuck itself. The substrate chuck is adjustable in x, y and theta while on the movable platform of a stage, and comprises a nested set of rotatable or sliding brackets adjustable in x, y and theta a positionable vacuum diffuser plate mounted within a coplanar apron on the top bracket. The vacuum diffuser plate fits within a relief cut about the periphery of the apron, which, together with a pattern of islands with their tops coplanar to a ledge formed by the relief, provide location and both bottom and peripheral support for the high-flatness vacuum diffuser plate. The vacuum airflow passes through the vacuum diffuser plate, through the pattern around supporting islands and out through a central yaw shaft about which the yaw rotation centers.

Abstract: A vehicle cover protector which protects most exposed parts of a motor vehicle from harsh climatic conditions including sun, rain, chemical fallout, pollution, dust, snow, sleet and hail. The cover is attached either within the vehicle or attached externally, mounted within a housing. A retractable cover covers the surface of the car. The cover may also be mounted over supporting members in order to provide additional protection from damage due to hail. The cover may be mounted upon two adjustable poles, which further provides for a sunshade available to persons or objects adjacent to the vehicle.
