Further provided is an electrochemical cell comprising an anode or a current collector, a first electrolyte, a polymer membrane separator, a second electrolyte, and a cathode, wherein: the polymer membrane separator is positioned between the anode and the cathode: the first electrolyte is in contact with the anode and a first face of the polymer membrane separator; the second electrolyte is in contact with the cathode and a second face of polymer membrane the separator.

Abstract: A vehicle scent dispensing device may comprise a scent cartridge configured to contain a scenting agent, a controller configured to determine a scent diffusion level of the scenting agent, a valve, and a fan. The controller may be configured operate the valve and control the fan to regulate an airflow pathway to the scenting agent and to draw air through the airflow pathway and over the scenting agent based on the scent diffusion level.

Abstract: A system for removing shingles on a roof is provided. One embodiment includes a navigational apparatus for traversing the roof and a roof shingle removal apparatus attached to the navigational apparatus for removing the shingles. The improved removal apparatus pries existing shingles from the roof, and then stores the shingles in a debris bin before emptying the shingles in a precise location.

Abstract: A method includes storing, in a memory device of a measurement system comprising at least a processor, correlation data indicating that a first attribute is correlated with a second attribute. The method further includes receiving, at a network interface of the measurement system, a first request to initiate a first messaging action directed to a target audience segment, the target audience segment associated with the first attribute. The method further includes, subsequent to receiving the first request and based on the correlation data indicating that the first attribute is correlated to the second attribute, transmitting a second request to a server via the network interface, the second request to initiate a second messaging action instead of the first messaging action. The second messaging action corresponds to a second group of users associated with the server.

Abstract: A method includes receiving an input identifying a target audience segment (e.g., reflecting a behavior, perspective, or opinion an advertiser would like to influence/increase). The method further includes identifying a first attribute measured by a measurement system, where the first attribute is determined to correlate to users tracked by the measurement system and that belong to the target audience segment, which reflects the behavior that the advertiser wants to influence/increase. The method further includes identifying a second attribute that corresponds to the first attribute, where a messaging action directed to the first attribute, the second attribute, or a combination thereof is available at one or more digital networks. The digital networks may require payment for message delivery or may allow such messaging for free. The method further includes initiating the messaging action aimed at driving behavior directed to the first attribute, the second attribute, or a combination thereof.

Abstract: A system for installing shingles on a roof is provided. One embodiment includes a navigational apparatus for traversing the roof and a roof shingle installation apparatus attached to the navigational apparatus for installing the shingles. The roof shingle installation apparatus is designed to remove a shingle from a bundle of shingles, and position the shingle, and fasten it to the roof.

Abstract: Systems and methods of measurement and modification of advertisements and content are described. In one example, a measurement system receives measurement data from a client device. The measurement data identifies an event associated with an advertisement or a content item presented by the client device. The measurement system determines performance data associated with the advertisement or the content item based at least in part on the received measurement data. The measurement system also sends the performance data to at least one of a server or the client device to cause at least one action related to the advertisement or the content item.

Abstract: Systems and methods of measurement and modification of advertisements and content are described. In one example, advertisements/content items (or web servers or applications that present the advertisements/content items) send signals to a measurement server in response to certain events or actions. The signals identify the advertisement/content item and the user that caused the event or performed the action. The measurement server aggregates received signals from different advertisements/content items to determine metrics such as digital brand lift (e.g., a change in brand awareness due to an advertisement/advertising campaign). The measurement server can send computed information back to an advertisement/content item, so that the advertisement/content item (or web server/application) can self-modify and/or deploy additional advertisements/content items.

Abstract: A tank head including a plurality of input ports, a plurality of output ports, and a connection fitting is provided. The plurality of input ports are in direct communication with one another, the plurality of output ports are in direct communication with one another, and the connection fitting is capable of associating the tank head with a fluid tank. Ends of each one of the input and output ports within the pluralities are capable of being associated with a first end of a connection adapter.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for a low-voltage electrostatic discharge clamp. A resistor pwell-tied transistor may be used as a low-voltage ESD clamp, where the body of the transistor is coupled to the source by a resistor, thereby reducing a DC leakage current and minimizing latch-ups in the transistor while maintaining effective ESD performance.

Abstract: A valve testing device and method for determining whether a fluid control valve, such as an automatic transmission valve, is operating acceptably. The device and method of the present invention passes pressurized fluid through the valve and to a flow measuring means where the flow rate of fluid through the valve can be measured. Because contamination within such a valve can contribute to unacceptable flow rate measurements, the device and method of the present invention can also pass purge fluid through the valve in a direction that is opposite to the normal flow of working fluid through the valve.
