  • Publication number: 20250240626
    Abstract: A method, computer system, and computer program product are provided for performing automated eavesdropping detection and remediation. A distance between a first and second wireless client device is determined with reference to a wireless access point based on wireless signals transmitted by the devices. A first and second signal loss are determined with reference to the first and second wireless client devices and the wireless access point. Material properties for any physical structures between the first and second wireless client devices are derived based on the signal losses. A sound attenuation is determined between the first and second wireless client devices based on the material properties. It is determined whether a first user of the first wireless client device can hear audio of a second user of the second wireless client device based on the sound attenuation determined between the first wireless client device and the second wireless client device.

  • Patent number: 12344016
    Abstract: Systems and methods for applying decorations onto substrates. Decorations can be transported on a web along the web path to an application station at which the decorations are applied to substrates. Movement of substrates through the application station can be controlled to effect transfer of a decoration to a substrate. The web and a substrate support that urges a substrate into contact with a decoration on the web can be moved in the same direction, e.g., at different speeds. The substrate can be rotated during decoration transfer about an axis that passes through the substrate, e.g., the substrate can be rotated 180 degrees or more during transfer.

  • Patent number: 12296570
    Abstract: Systems and methods for applying decorations onto substrates. Decorations can be transported on a web along the web path to an application station at which the decorations are applied to substrates. Movement of substrates through the application station can be controlled by rollers that are movable to permit and/or prevent entry to the application station and/or exit from the application station. The rollers can urge a substrate into contact with a decoration, and movement of the decoration and web at the application station can cause rotation of the substrate during decoration transfer.

  • Publication number: 20250147835
    Abstract: Techniques described herein relate to generating dynamic troubleshooting information for distributed computing systems. For example, a computer-implemented method can involve receiving a support request for an issue with respect to a computing environment. The support request can include a diagnostic file for the computing environment. In response, troubleshooting information associated with the issue or the computing environment can be identified in a support information database. A diagnostic software tool associated with the issue or the computing environment can be embedded within the troubleshooting information. Then, a graphical user interface displaying the troubleshooting information and including an interface element displaying a result generated by applying the diagnostic software tool to the diagnostic file can be output for use in resolving the issue.

  • Patent number: 12225289
    Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for determining a core-to-ferrule offset of a ferrule for a fiber optic connector. A reference ferrule is physically aligned with a core imager by positioning the reference ferrule so that edges of the reference ferrule in a plurality of profile images are aligned with fiducial markers in the images. The reference ferrule is incrementally rotated about its longitudinal center access, a core image captured at each rotational angle, and a reference core-to-ferrule offset determined based on the core images. A test ferrule is physically aligned with the core imager by positioning the test ferrule so that edges of the test ferule are aligned with the edges of the reference ferrule in a plurality of profile images. The core-to-ferrule offset of the test ferrule is then determined based on an offset between the test and reference cores in a composite core image.
