Abstract: A recommended workspace at a premises is determined for a user of a software platform requesting a workspace reservation based on learned preferences specific to the user. The workspace reservation request is initiated via an interaction by the user with one or more graphical user interfaces displaying information associated with workspaces at the premises. Scores for each of multiple candidate workspaces identified for the user from amongst available ones of the workspaces are determined based on weights defined according to learned personnel preferences of the user and learned workspace preferences of the user. A recommended workspace is determined for the user as a candidate workspace of the multiple candidate workspaces corresponding to a highest one of the scores. An indication of the recommended workspace is then output for display within the one or more graphical user interfaces in response to the workspace reservation request.

Abstract: Fusing nanowire inks are described that can also comprise a hydrophilic polymer binder. such as a cellulose based binder. The fusing nanowire inks can be deposited onto a substrate surface and dried to drive the fusing process. Transparent conductive films can be formed with desirable properties.

Abstract: A system comprises: a sensor configured to detect a gesture relating to a vehicle; a network; an electronic control unit (ECU) coupled to the network, a display device, and the sensor, the ECU providing media functionality for the vehicle, the ECU configured to present a surround view video on the display device, determine a gesture state and screen coordinates for the gesture, and send the gesture state and the screen coordinates over the network; cameras providing feeds; and an ECU coupled to the network and to the cameras, the ECU providing an advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) for the vehicle, the ECU configured to receive the gesture state and the screen coordinates over the network, generate the surround view video based on the feeds of the cameras and the gesture state and the screen coordinates, and send the surround view video over the network.

Abstract: Disrupting convergence of lytic granules produced by cytotoxic lymphocytes allows non-directional degranulation, which improves and broadens killing efficiency of the cytotoxic cells in pathogenic environments such as when used for cancer therapy. Accordingly, methods of inducing multidirectional degranulation by cytotoxic effector cells in a tumor microenvironment, methods of treating a tumor, and related therapeutic composition are described.

Abstract: Methods for processing deposited metal nanowire inks with metal ions are used to form fused metal nanostructured networks. The metal nanowire inks include a hydrophilic polymer binder, such as a cellulose based binder. The metal nanowire inks can be deposited onto a substrate surface and dried to drive the fusing process. Transparent conductive films can be formed with desirable properties.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a plurality of loudspeakers, memory storing pre-stored sound files, encoding a sound for rendering by the loudspeakers, memory storing an attribute file containing attributes associated with the sounds and associated with audio streams, the attributes defining parameters for rendering each of the sounds and audio streams. An audio manager is configured for receiving the pre-stored sound files, audio streams, and attributes from the attribute file, the received attributes corresponding to the received pre-stored sound files and audio files. The audio manager is configured for, based on the received attributes, determining relative priorities for rendering the received pre-stored sound files and audio streams. An audio mixer is configured for, based on the determined relative priorities, outputting signals to the loudspeakers to render the received pre-stored sound files and audio streams according to the determined relative priorities.

Abstract: This document relates to distributed devices teleconferencing. Some implementations can employ adaptive microphone selection based on signal characteristics such as signal-to-noise ratios or speech quality, and/or based on a microphone affinity approach. The selected microphone signals can be synchronized and mixed to generate a playback signal that is sent to a remote device. Further implementations can perform proximity-based mixing, where microphone signals received from devices in a particular room can be omitted from playback signals transmitted to other devices in the same room. These techniques can allow enhanced call quality for teleconferencing sessions where co-located users can employ their own devices to participate in a call with other users.

Abstract: A winged vertical take-off and landing aircraft with compound control surfaces comprising flaps and ailerons which can be operated simultaneously with each other offers improved aerodynamic performance and maneuverability. Configuration of the compound control surfaces may be varied to optimize performance in hovering (vertical) flight modes, cruising (horizontal) flight modes, and transitional flight modes.

Abstract: A resource server system granting to users access to a resource based on the very fact that the users' computing systems can demonstrate that they heard an audio signal. Specifically, the resource server system detects receipt of a message from a client computing system, and interprets the message as representing that the client computing system heard an audio signal. In response, the resource server system grants a user of the client computing system access to the resource. This may be performed for multiple client computing systems that each demonstrate that they heard the audio signal. Thus, the principles described herein allow for the granting of access to resources to other computing systems within the audible proximity of a computing system that transmitted the audio signal.

Abstract: A transmitting computing system's use of an audio signal to grant users of receiving computing systems access to a resource. These other receiving systems are in close proximity to the transmitting system so that they hear the audio signal on their microphones. Upon receiving the audio signal, a given receiving system sends a message representing that received audio signal to a resource server system that regulates access to that resource. The transmitting system and resource server system may have coordinated that the ability to send such a message is sufficient for access to be granted to the sender of that message. The resource server system thus determines that the message correlates to the resource, and thereby grants the user of the receiving system access to the resource. Thus, the principles described herein allow for an actual audio signal to efficiently grant resource access to other proximate users.
