  • Patent number: 10171939
    Abstract: A network device capable of performing rule-based actions dependent on geolocation-based conditions or realtime conditions from an external source. The network device can obtain its geolocation, obtain a rule based on a condition, query sources for and/or calculate updated statuses of the condition based on the geolocation, and perform actions based on the updated status of the condition, the geolocation, and the rule. The network device is capable of safely shutting down when voltage supplied to the network device falls outside of and acceptable range.

  • Publication number: 20180361579
    Abstract: Articulated assemblies are all around us in nature as well as within the artificial environments and artificial systems we create. Computer based simulations are used to view, analyze, and modify motion specifications and sequences for articulated assemblies in the generation of avatars for multimedia and designing robotic/android systems. Articulated assembly specifications along with terrain and physical laws are employed in establishing an actuation and motion sequence for the assembly. However, other factors such as emotion, state of mind, etc. impact how the assembly actually moves and the physical aspect of the assembly. Embodiments of the invention allow for management of cyclic and acyclic elements to the overall motion through graphical user interfaces as well as the rapid establishment of new motion models through fractional combination of existing motion models as well as the association of a motion model to multiple articulated assemblies allowing simulations of herds, crowds etc.

  • Publication number: 20180304365
    Abstract: A 3D printer includes a build plate providing a surface on which an object is printed. Prior to printing, a sheet is fixed to the surface of the build plate. The sheet is composed of a material that adheres to a binder component of the feedstock used to print the object. During printing, the first layer of the printed object forms a bond with the sheet, which secures the location of the first layer and resists movement of the object during printing. Following printing and the object gaining sufficient rigidity, the object and sheet can be removed together from the printer. The sheet may then be peeled from the object, and the object can undergo debinding and/or sintering to create a finished object.

  • Patent number: 10104059
    Abstract: A permissions management system is disclosed for enabling a user to securely authorize a third-party system to access user account data and initiate transactions related to a user account, without disclosing to the third-party system account credentials. The system enables the user to also securely de-authorize the third-party system. For example, records may be automatically generated that securely store account information, including one or more permissions related to the account and/or the third-party. A token associated with a record may be shared with the third-party system, but neither the record itself, nor the user account credentials, may be shared with the third-party. Accordingly, the third-party may request user account data and/or initiate transactions by providing the token, but does not itself know, e.g., the user account credentials. Further, the user may set various permissions related to the token, and may also revoke the token (e.g.

  • Patent number: 10014240
    Abstract: An array includes a substrate having a frontside surface and a backside surface. A backside cavity is formed in the backside surface. Backside through vias extend through the substrate from the frontside surface to the backside surface. Embedded component through vias extend through the substrate from the frontside surface to the backside cavity. An embedded component is mounted within the backside cavity and coupled to the embedded component through vias. In this manner, the embedded component is embedded within the substrate. By embedding the embedded component within the substrate, the overall thickness of the array is minimized. Further, by electrically connecting the embedded component to the embedded component through vias, which are relatively short, the impedance between active surface ends of the embedded component through vias and the bond pads of the embedded component is minimized thus providing superior power management.
