Abstract: In general, the present disclosure describes inventory management systems and methods which track all inventory of items within a retail supply chain. A computerized system aggregates inventory movement events to produce a common source of truth for the location and disposition of items within a supply chain. Order events and inventory events are received from multiple data sources. Additionally, a current inventory level for each item at each location within the supply chain is provided according to the data source. The computerized system normalizes the information in the event messages before it is stored in the centralized inventory database. The inventory information in the database can be accessed by multiple consumers through an API to obtain the most up-to-date information about the disposition and location of an item.

Abstract: Large numbers of files having widely varying structures and formats may be ingested, and used to generate dynamic slot indexes that enable fast and reliable searching of the files. Unique data patterns within the files are used to generate unique pattern models, which enable model-specific mappings of file fields to slots of a dynamic slot index. Accordingly, the dynamic slot indexes may reuse a single slot for multiple fields. Complex queries may then be processed in a time-efficient and resource-efficient manner, even when rapidly ingesting huge numbers of files having indeterminate data patterns from many different sources.

Abstract: Examples of synchronization of a gyroscope in a virtual-reality (VR) environment are described. In some examples, gyroscopic feedback for VR application content may be predicted. In some examples, a time shift corresponding to a physical system lag of a gyroscope may be added to synchronize the gyroscopic feedback with the VR application content. In some examples, the gyroscopic feedback may be applied based on the time shift.

Abstract: As a farming machine travels through a field of plants, the farming machine operates in a normal operational state to perform one or more farming operations. The farming machine detects an operational failure of a component of the farming machine using measurements obtained from one or more sensors coupled to and monitoring the farming machine. The operational failure of the component impacts performance of a first farming operation of the farming operations. The farming machine configures the farming machine to operate in a remedial operational state. In the remedial operational state, the farming machine diagnoses the operational failure of the component using the obtained measurements. In the remedial operational state, the farming machine selects a solution operation to address the operational failure of the component based on the diagnosis. The farming machine performs the determined solution operation.
