  • Publication number: 20250194719
    Abstract: An apparel article (12) with a grip texture on an exterior surface formed by a grip field of a plurality of spaced-apart nodules (16) extending from the exterior surface to a distal end and each defining a concave recess (44) therein. The apparel article may comprise (A) a glove body having a cuff with an open end and a hand portion from which four finger tubes and a thumb tube extend, for receiving a hand. and the exterior surface having at least one grip field for gripping an article and (B) a shoe cover with a sole having the grip field for resisting slippage on walking surfaces.

  • Publication number: 20250191452
    Abstract: The present document describes techniques for providing a context-based user interface. These techniques include an electronic device having a user interface that dynamically adapts to a context of a visitor or a type of visitor. Characteristics associated with the visitor are detected, using sensors, and used to determine a context of the visitor. The user interface is then populated with curated, customized context-based options that correspond to the context of the visitor. The context-based options represent possible reasons for the visitor's visit and are estimated based on the detected characteristics. The visitor interacts with the user interface to select an appropriate context-based option to convey their intent for visiting an occupant of a building associated with the electronic device. Then, a notification associated with the selected context-based option is provided.

  • Patent number: 12106645
    Abstract: This document describes techniques, apparatuses, and systems for batch size adjustment using latency-critical event recognition. The techniques described herein enable an electronic device (e.g., security camera) to determine the likelihood of an event of interest (e.g., latency-critical event) occurring in data (e.g., audio and/or video) captured by the electronic device. To make such a determination, the electronic device may switch upload modes to upload the data, using a different batch size to reduce latency, to another device for user access, based on the likelihood of an event of interest occurring in the data. In this way, the techniques, apparatuses, and systems for batch size adjustment using latency-critical event recognition provide an efficient way to provide all-day security monitoring.

  • Patent number: 9921571
    Abstract: This application relates to methods for applying automated precision machining operations to an oversized workpiece with a compact computer numerical control (CNC) machining apparatus. By shifting an oversized workpiece through a working area of the CNC machining apparatus, the CNC machining apparatus can apply machining operations to any portion of the workpiece in an automated manner. To achieve precision results, a position of the workpiece is tracked as the workpiece is shifted through the working area. In some embodiments, a probe can be utilized to track the shifting of the workpiece by determining a location of a machined feature after a particular shift has been completed. In this way, a position of the workpiece can be tracked without having to rely upon tolerances inherent to a workpiece manipulator.

  • Publication number: 20070286554
    Abstract: A re-terminable, no-crimp ST-type optical connector assembly includes a spring-loaded ferrule holder assembly and a reusable activation system for termination of the assembly. The optical connector can be terminated by a suitable cam activation tool. The connector includes a housing, such as a bayonet, matable to a mating adapter, a backbone retained within a rear of the housing, a ferrule holder provided within the backbone, and a cam provided between the ferrule holder and the backbone. The ferrule holder includes an alignment key exposed to mate with a cam activation tool to lock rotation of the ferrule holder relative to other connector components. The cam includes a cam activation cutout at a front face thereof that mates with a cam activation tool interface to enable rotation of the cam between de-activated and activated positions, the cam activation cutout also receiving the alignment key of the ferrule holder therethrough.
