Abstract: Systems and methods for automated cap removal with an autosampler system are described. In an aspect, an autosampler system includes, but is not limited to, a sample rack; a sample vessel stabilizer configured to transition the sample rack between a load/unload state and a lock state; an uncapper supported by a first z-axis support; and a sample probe supported by a second z-axis support, wherein the uncapper is configured to remove a cap from a sample vessel held by the sample rack when the sample rack is in the lock state, and wherein the uncapper is configured to change the position of the removed cap to permit access to an interior of the sample vessel by the sample probe without removing the sample vessel from the sample rack.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for automatically reviewing structured query language (SQL) statements comprises the steps of receiving SQL code from a user seeking to access a database, parsing the SQL code to retrieve SQL keywords, mathematical operators, and logical operators, applying a complexity score calculation algorithm to the parsed code, calculating a complexity score, and executing the SQL code on a computing system which stores the database if the complexity score is less than or equal to a threshold. On the other hand, if the complexity score is greater than the threshold, the SQL code may be flagged to be rewritten.

Abstract: A system for providing vehicle information at an automobile point of purchase includes a user device having a camera or other image capturing device that is used to capture an image of an automobile. An application on or associated with the image capturing device can either transmit the image to a service provider for processing, or can implement one or more steps in a feature recognition process locally, and thereafter transmit the data to a service provider. In either case, the service provider can then complete the feature recognition processing and identify the automobile from the image. The service provider can then communicate with a make and model database to provide useful information on the vehicle, which can then be transmitted to the user device and conveniently displayed.
