Abstract: A light fixture includes an array of light-emitting diode (“LED”) light sources, a driver circuit that drives the array of LED light sources, and a controller. Controlling the light fixture includes receiving a first output color spectrum for the array of LED light sources that corresponds to a fixture color output spectrum, performing an optical modification of the fixture output color spectrum, determining, based on the optical modification, a compensation value to modify the first output color spectrum to a second output color spectrum that compensates for changes to the fixture output color spectrum resulting from the optical modification, generating, based on the compensation value, a first control signal to drive the array of LED light sources at the second output color spectrum, and controlling the driver circuit using the first control signal.

Abstract: A method in a client backoff filter. The method includes receiving, from a server, a backoff data packet having backoff metadata. The method also includes saving the backoff metadata in a cache local to the client backoff filter. The method also includes receiving a subsequent request for service. The method also includes checking whether an attribute of the subsequent request for service matches the backoff metadata in the cache. The method also includes performing, responsive to checking, an action including at least one of the group including: blocking, responsive to the attribute matching the backoff metadata in the cache, transmission of the subsequent request for service to a server, and transmitting, responsive to the attribute failing to match the backoff metadata in the cache, the subsequent request for service to the server.

Abstract: Example illustrations of a storage rack configured to store a transportable aircraft landing system are disclosed. A storage rack may include a base structure configured to be secured upon a single pallet, and a plurality of vertically extending support members, or wall members, that are fixed to the base. The rack may thereby define an enclosure separated into a main enclosure and an upper enclosure elevated from the base structure. The storage rack may also include a hinged structure that is pivotally mounted and configured to enclose an interior storage area adjacent the enclosure in a closed position. The hinged structure may be pivotable from the closed position to an open position allowing access to the interior storage area.

Abstract: Certain aspects of the disclosure provide a method for transferring an achievement token, comprising: receiving a request to transfer an achievement token to a user; querying a smart contract to obtain a requirement associated with the achievement token; verifying, via a blockchain, the user completed the requirement, including retrieving user evidence associated with the requirement from the blockchain; and storing user evidence with a transaction history associated with the transfer of the achievement token to the user; and transferring, via the blockchain, the achievement token to the user.

Abstract: A gaming machine includes a processor and a presentation device coupled to the processor. The processor is programmed to determine that a free play trigger condition is satisfied, and to execute one or more free plays based on the free play trigger condition to create one or more free play outcomes. Each free play outcome is a winning free play outcome or a non-winning free play outcome. The presentation device is configured to present winning free play outcomes when at least one free play outcome is a winning free play outcome. Non-winning free play outcomes are not presented.

Abstract: A laminate sheet article including: a core including an electrical semi-conductor or an electrical conductor; and a continuous glass clad layer on at least four of six sides the core of the sheet article. Also disclosed is an apparatus for making a sheet laminate article as defined herein. Also disclosed is a method of making and using the article.

Abstract: Techniques are described for automatically presenting workflow(s) in an application based at least partly on detected signal(s). A radio-frequency signal may be emitted from a transceiver and received by a transceiver of a user device when the transceiver is in proximity to the device. In response, an application including functionality to activate a payment card can launch.

Abstract: A method includes obtaining a help file including steps for a task and generating a knowledge graph including instructions corresponding to the steps. The method further includes extracting, from a user input of a user, an intent to complete the task. Responsive to extracting the intent to complete the task, obtaining the knowledge graph is obtained. Using the knowledge graph, an instruction of the knowledge graph is presented to perform an action in a workflow to complete the task.

Abstract: A method including receiving, from a server, a backoff data packet including first information and second information. The first information includes a backoff command to cease transmitting at least some requests to a service executing on the server, and The second information includes metadata. The method also includes adding the backoff data packet to cached data stored in a cache. The method also includes receiving, from a client, a request data packet including a request for the service. The method also includes comparing request information, associated with the request data packet, to the cached data, including at least comparing the request information to the metadata. The method also includes blocking, responsive to a match between the request information and the cached data, the request data packet from being transmitted to the service.
