  • Publication number: 20210314312
    Abstract: Disclosed are various examples for transferring device identifying information during authentication. An enrollment request is received from a management component executed by a client device. A management service generates a unique device identifier for the client device and embeds it within a certificate to generate a device-identifying certificate. The management service instructs a certificate authority service to generate a public key that includes the unique device identifier and a private key for the client device, and provides the device-identifying certificate and the private key to the client device.

  • Patent number: 11063928
    Abstract: Disclosed are various examples for transferring device identifying information during authentication. In some examples, an authentication request is transmitted to an identity manager. Instructions to negotiate a ticket are received from the identity manager. A ticket is negotiated from a key distribution center using a certificate comprising a unique device identifier of the client device. The unique device identifier is embedded in the ticket by the key distribution center based on verification that the certificate is valid. Authentication of the client device is completed through the identity manager using the ticket.

  • Patent number: 10424009
    Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for facilitating a shopping experience that spans multiple display devices of multiple computing devices. Image data for a selected item is obtained from an item catalog. The selected item corresponds to a user selection made via a first computing device. An image of the user is obtained. An image of the selected item is rendered relative to the image of the user on a display of a second computing device. The image of the selected item is generated from the image data.

  • Patent number: 10341325
    Abstract: Disclosed are various examples for determining whether a client device complies with compliance rules while authenticating a user account. A client certificate can include an identifier corresponding to a client device. An identity provider can extract the identifier while authenticating the user account. The identity provider can determine whether the client device complies with compliance rules prior to authenticating the user account on the client device.

  • Patent number: 9894423
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for providing composite content, such as video content, by compositing. A template content may be received and may have one or more color blocks. One or more drop-in content sets may each have one or more drop-in content that correspond to the one or more colors of the template content color blocks. The one or more color blocks of the template content may be replaced with its corresponding drop-in content from one of the one or more drop-in content sets to generate a composite content. Furthermore, the composite content may have demographic, geographic, and/or behavioral parameters associated with it to enable targeting the composite content, such as in the form of advertisements and/or product or service recommendations, to one or more users.

  • Patent number: 4385727
    Abstract: An irrigation emitter tube having, when free of pressure a pair of wall portions, one wall portion being essentially flat between its margins, the other also being essentially flat except for an outwardly arched longitudinally extending portion, the lateral margins of the wall portions being joined by semi-circular portions of low radius; the emitter tube, when subject to internal pressure, being expansible into essentially cylindrical contour, the radius of which is essentially identical to the radius of the arched portion; that is, the curvature of the arched portion remains essentially constant from zero to maximum pressure. The arched portion is provided with a series of emitter ports and the internal surfaces of the arched portion surrounding the ports are utilized by the valve elements to form at a predetermined low pressure a series of flush flow discharge passages and to form at a greater pressure a series of drip flow discharge passages.

  • Patent number: 4382549
    Abstract: An irrigation emitter including a housing forming a chamber having diverging inlet and outlet walls, the diverging walls forming an apex which receives an end of an emitter plate therebetween; the emitter plate, when subject to pressure at the inlet wall below a predetermined low pressure occupying a position closing the inlet; the emitter plate, when subject to greater low pressure, forming momentarily with the outlet wall a flush flow outlet passage; the confronting surfaces of the outlet wall and emitter plate defining therebetween a drip flow passage. The emitter plate may be circular or rectangular and the portion of the chamber between the emitter plate and outlet wall may be enlarged to effect pressure reducing turbulent flow prior to discharge.

  • Patent number: 4147307
    Abstract: A multiple emitter flow control which utilizes an irrigation flow tube provided with a series of outlets which receive a series of flexible emitters, the walls of each emitter being biased to form a flush flow passage extending radially inward from its corresponding outlet, the flush flow passage being collapsible, when the walls are subject to a bending force, causing the emitter to deflect angularly from its outlet, and also collapsible, when subject to water pressure above a preselected value, each emitter when collapsed by a bending force or by water pressure forming a drip flow passage from the interior of the irrigation tube through its outlet; the walls of the irrigation flow tube between irrigation cycles being biased to a normally flattened profile. An embodiment of the emitter being of greater length than the minor dimension of the flattened irrigation flow tube.

  • Patent number: 4122590
    Abstract: A means and method of installing emitters in irrigation tubing, wherein a core assembly dimensioned for ready insertion in a thinwall irrigation tube is provided with internal rollers which are confronted by fixed external rollers positioned to function through the walls of the irrigation tube so as to retain the core assembly in a fixed position as the tubing is moved between the internal and external rollers; the core assembly including an anvil periodically engaged by an external radially movable cutting tool to form in the irrigation tube a series of emitter receiving perforations; the core assembly also including a fork member for spacing the perforated wall of the irrigation tube from the opposite wall thereof to facilitate reception of emitters forced therein by an external mandrel; the anvil and fork and their respective cutting tool and mandrel adapted to be spaced at preselected distances depending on the required emitter spacing.
