Abstract: A room manager can generate mappings for a real-world room that support a shared XR environment. For example, the real-world room can include real-world objects and surfaces, such as a table(s), chair(s), wall(s), door(s), window(s), etc. The room manager can generate XR object definitions based on information received about the real-world room, object(s), and surface(s). For example, the room manager can implement a flow that guides a user equipped with an XR system to provide information for the XR object definitions, such as real-world surfaces that map to the XR object(s), borders (e.g., measured using a component of the XR system), such as borders on real-world surfaces, semantic information (e.g., number of seat assignments at an XR table, size of XR objects, etc.), and other suitable information. Implementations generate previews of the shared XR environment, such as a local preview and a remote preview.

Abstract: Electrodes having a usability indicator to indicate a usability of the electrodes are described. The electrodes include a first electrode and a second electrode, as well as an output device(s) that are configured to output a usability indication indicative of a usability of the set of electrodes.

Abstract: Systems, methods and computer program products for securely printing coupon prints and for facilitating a digital couponing platform for creating, managing, and publishing digital coupon campaigns are disclosed. In an aspect, such digital couponing platform allows creators to market (i.e., create and publish) and review data related to promotional coupons, and consumers may request and print physical coupon prints. Consumers may request coupon prints via an application virtual machine (e.g., Java® applet) executing on an Internet-enabled computing device with several selected security features. In some aspects, coupon prints are printed by a consumer without presenting the consumer with a graphical representation of coupon print so that coupon print counterfeiting opportunities via utilization of screen capture software are reduced.

Abstract: A system is provided for sensing data and for conveying the data to a network via an RFID tag. The sensed data may be provided as simply two-state single-bit data or as multi-bit data converted from analog values. The sensor used in the system alters an RFID tag address to include one or more bits of data derived from the sensor signal. A reader may then prompt or interrogate the RFID tag and obtain both the unique identification of the sensor as well as the sensed data as one or more bits in the address. The reader may then convert the data to a network message and place the message on a conventional network for interpretation used by remote devices.

Abstract: A programmer for controlling the actuation and deactuation of a plurality of load function switches. A motorized cam drum track moves a follower pivoted about a fulcrum pin. A solenoid controlled by a microcomputer slidably moves a bar operable to selectively latch and unlatch the fulcrum pin. When latched, the pin causes the follower to pivot and effect the actuation and deactuation of the associated switch in response to the cam track and the follower, when the fulcrum is unlatched, leaving the switch unmoved. The solenoid controls latching and unlatching independently of the cam drum rotation.
