Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods described include receiving data related to an availability for a shift, automatically triggering initiation of a communications session related to the shift, conducting the communications session, and receiving and storing a plurality of audio or audio and visual signals from the communications session. Machine learning (ML) sentiment analysis is performed on data of the communications session and based on the sentiment analysis, a reliability score is determined.

Abstract: A minimally invasive examination device for assisting in the positioning of an interventional instrument in the body of a patient. The device allows improved positioning of an interventional instrument in the body of a patient. The device comprises: a coupling element on which at least one first sensor is arranged and that is coupled to a proximal end of the interventional instrument, as a result of which the first sensor is connected to the interventional instrument (16) via the coupling element, a signal detection and processing device that is connected to the first sensor in a wireless or wired manner so as to transmit signals, wherein the signal detection and processing device (20, 34) is designed to process the signals from the first sensor, and a display device that is designed to visually display processing results from the signal detection and processing device.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices relating to video stream signal analysis are described herein. In a method, a first video stream configured with a first plurality of signals associated with inserting content may be determined. The first plurality of signals may be extracted from the first video stream and temporally compressed. A second video stream may be configured with the compressed first plurality of signals. Based on whether the compressed first plurality of signals caused any errors in processing the second video stream, it may be determined whether the uncompressed first plurality of signals are expected to cause any errors in processing the first video stream configured with the uncompressed first plurality of signals.

Abstract: A method of operating a video services receiver involves the processing of video data for presentation on a display element associated with the video services receiver. During presentation of the video event, a screenshot command is received at the video services receiver. The screenshot command originates from a remote control device assigned to the video services receiver. In response to receiving the screenshot command, a currently displayed image on the display element is captured as a saved screenshot. The method continues by providing a screenshot sharing user interface for presentation on the display element. The user interface includes at least one interactive control to facilitate sharing of the saved screenshot from the video services receiver. The method continues by outputting the saved screenshot from the video services receiver in association with a selected sharing application.

Abstract: A guitar slide adapted to be worn on a musician's finger has an annular end including a hole adapted for receiving the musician's finger, and a semiannular end adapted to extend over a tip of the musician's finger. The semiannular end forms a recess adapted for the musician's finger to rest within and is configured such that the recess becomes wider as the distance from the annular end increases.

Abstract: A motorcycle disk brake rotor in the shape of an annular ring is (i) mounted to the motorcycles rear wheel at the outside of its annulus and (ii) swept by the yoke of a disk brake caliper that is mounted to the inside of the annulus. A belt pulley affixes at its exterior circumferential region--either rigidly or "floating"--the exterior annular region of the disk brake rotor which is in the shape of the annular ring. A motorcycle disk brake caliper assembly is anchored at one mounting point to the motorcycle's rear axle shaft, and at a second mounting point to the motorcycle's suspension swingarm, engages the disk brake rotor from the inside of its annulus. The combined disk brake and belt pulley assembly is compact and visually regularly appearing. It may suitably be stylized with the same pattern as are the wheels of the motorcycle.

Abstract: A motorcycle's running, turn and/or stop lights are located in cavities at the ends of each leg of a "U" shape rear suspension swing arm. Lenses to each light are preferably integrated with the exterior contours of the swing arm, presenting illumination preferably to both the rear and the sides of the motorcycle. Connective wiring is preferably within the swingarm. The lenses are removable to expose both (i) axle nuts and (ii) axle adjustment screws, permitting full adjustment of both. The integrated swingarm and light assembly is completely compatible with, and may suitably be retrofitted to, existing motorcycles where it serves to present a sleek, smooth and compact appearance.
