Abstract: Concepts and technologies are disclosed herein for an extended reality safety and accessibility assistant. According to one aspect disclosed herein, a server computer can include a processor and a memory. The memory can include instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations. In particular, the server computer can receive a request from a user device. The request can include an image of a physical environment. The server computer can identify a structure within the image and can determine whether the structure is associated with a safety rating, an accessibility rating, or both. In response to determining that the structure is associated with a rating, the server computer can generate extended reality display data including an augmented reality object that is representative of the rating.

Abstract: A multimodal audio broadcast assembly for selectively enabling individual and group listening includes a pair of earbuds and a docking station. Each earbud is selectively engageable a respective ear of a user so that the earbud is removably engaged to the respective ear. The earbuds can receive wirelessly an audio signal from an electronic device and can broadcast the audio signal into the ears of the user. The docking station operationally engages the pair of earbuds so that the docking station is positioned to charge the pair of earbuds. The docking station also can receive the audio signal from the electronic device. A dock speaker is engaged to the docking station and is positioned to selectively broadcast the audio signal.

Abstract: A variable effect activation system includes one or more sensors that generate data. The data can be assessed to determine if the data is indicative of a valid input to an interactive effect. Valid inputs may be assessed based on a lenient or relatively non-stringent threshold to permit a wide variety of guest actions to be considered valid inputs. While many of these guest actions may not be recognized as part of preprogrammed interactions with an interactive environment, the system nonetheless assesses characteristics of these inputs to provide an appropriate response, e.g., via activation of an interactive effect in a manner that aligns with the characteristics.

Abstract: A container is provided including a base, a front panel joined to the base, a right panel and a left panel joined to the base, two rear flaps positionable in a closed configuration comprising a first rear flap joined to the right panel and positionable perpendicular to the right panel and a second rear flap joined to the left panel and positionable perpendicular to the left panel, a rear panel joined to the base, and a top joined to the rear panel. The closed configuration includes the top oriented atop the front panel, right panel, and left panel and the rear panel proximate the two rear flaps.

Abstract: The invention generally relates to detecting an analyte in a medium. In certain aspects, the invention provides systems and methods for detecting an analyte in a medium comprising one or more light-emitting diodes, each operating at a single wavelength in a deep ultraviolet (UV) range for excitation of a target in a medium and a plurality of semiconductor photodetectors. The system is configured such that each semiconductor photodetector detects only a subset of emission from the excited analyte in the medium. In some examples, systems and methods of the invention comprise a light-emitting diode and a semiconductor photodetector for detection of the absence or presence of a non-specific contaminant.

Abstract: The invention generally relates to detecting biological substances. In certain aspects, the invention is directed to a method directing one or more wavelengths of light within a deep ultraviolet (UV) spectrum into a medium to excite a biological substance in the medium, detect emission from the excited biological substance via a plurality of semiconductor photodetectors, and analyze the deep UV emission data for presence of a deep UV spectral signature indicative of the biological substance, wherein presence of the deep UV spectral signature indicates that the medium comprises a biological substance. The invention is also directed to identifying a pathogen in a medium comprising a pathogen and a non-pathogen biological substance.

Abstract: A method for distributed pod-editing may be performed by an enhanced pod editor, and may include the following steps: receiving a framework for a pod, wherein the framework identifies one or more content items already assigned to one or more slots in the pod by one or more pod editors; determining attributes of the content items already assigned to the pod in a native taxonomy of the enhanced pod editor; determining restrictions on the pod's slots based on the attributes of the content items already assigned to the pod and on the pod's editorial constraints; rejecting content items already assigned to the pod that violate the restrictions on the pod's slots (if any); identifying candidate content items that comply with the restrictions on the pod's unfilled slots (if any), and selecting candidate content items and assigning the selected content items to the pod's unfilled slots

Abstract: A railcar body comprises at least one panel assembly having a first panel and a second panel, both extending longitudinally along the railcar body and adjacently to each other. The inner wall of the first and second panels, which are longer than their outer wall, respectively have at least a first and a second mating interface which are different from each other and compatible so as to be located at a predetermined distance from each other, thereby creating a gap of a predetermined width between two juxtaposed edges of the panels. This panel assembly is designed to be compatible with a laser welding process.
