  • Publication number: 20160216454
    Abstract: A method for positioning an optical fiber having an end portion within an alignment groove of an alignment device includes orienting the optical fiber in the alignment groove of the alignment device; causing the optical fiber to elastically flex; using an interference point to assist in forming a curved profile of the flexed fiber, and using inherent elasticity of the flexed optical fiber to assist in retaining the end portion of the optical fiber in contact with the alignment groove. A connection system includes a connector, alignment device, and adapter, with an interference point on at least one of the connector, alignment device, or adapter.

  • Publication number: 20160112409
    Abstract: Approaches for facilitating spatial and temporal verification of users and/or user devices are disclosed. In some implementations, a user device may be detected within a short wireless communication range. A wireless communication session with the user device may be initiated based on the detection. Information identifying a first integrity-based certificate may be received from the user device during the wireless communication session during a first time period. Information identifying a second integrity-based certificate associated with a second time period may be provided responsive to determining that the first integrity-based certificate is a valid integrity-based certificate associated with the first time period. The second integrity-based certificate may be configured to allow network access for the user device during the second time period.

  • Publication number: 20160027313
    Abstract: According to an aspect, a method of performing environmentally-aware landing zone classification for an aircraft includes receiving environmental sensor data indicative of environmental conditions external to the aircraft. Image sensor data indicative of terrain representing a potential landing zone for the aircraft are received. An environmentally-aware landing zone classification system of the aircraft evaluates the environmental sensor data to classify the potential landing zone relative to a database of landing zone types as environmentally-aware classification data. Geometric features of the potential landing zone are identified in the image sensor data as image-based landing zone classification data. The potential landing zone is classified and identified based on a fusion of the environmentally-aware classification data and the image-based landing zone classification data.
