Abstract: An augmented reality system having a light source and a camera. The light source projects a pattern of light onto a scene, the pattern being periodic. The camera captures an image of the scene including the projected pattern. A projector pixel of the projected pattern corresponding to an image pixel of the captured image is determined. A disparity of each correspondence is determined, the disparity being an amount that corresponding pixels are displaced between the projected pattern and the captured image. A three-dimensional computer model of the scene is generated based on the disparity. A virtual object in the scene is rendered based on the three-dimensional computer model.

Abstract: In certain instances, a data management application (software application) that manages moving data files, and the like, from a primary high-speed storage system. An end-user can configure the data management application for particular files via management policies. Based on the management policies, after a file is migrated from the primary storage system to a targeted secondary storage system, a breadcrumb pointing to a webpage for the migrated file is left behind in the primary storage system. The webpage can be used to manage the migrated file, such as moving the migrated file back to the primary storage system.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media that support automated account maintenance and fraud mitigation for secure accounts such as vendor master accounts or client master accounts. To illustrate, a system receives a request from a user to update an account. The system extracts request data from the request, for example using natural language processing and optical character recognition. The system performs validation operation(s) (e.g., entry validation, location validation, domain validation, etc.), in some implementations using one or more machine learning models. Upon successful validation, if the user is an authorized contact for the account, the system authenticates the request (e.g., via request of an authorization code) and updates the account.

The data management server restores the cold data blocks in the second subset.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for remote code execution between computing environments having various dissimilarities. Client requests at a source environment lead to calls of various types lacking immediate support within the source environment. Calls are delegated to the target environment, where function schemas, data schemas, or copies of source-side schemas are variously used to reconcile called source-side entities with their target-side counterparts. Inconsistencies between name and data representations and datatypes are also addressed. Serially communicated (JSON) parameters are resolved into required target-side multi-level parameter structures, and vice versa. Expedited bulk data access to/from a database layer is supported. A use case is described for phased migration of a software application. Generic and extensible remote code execution allows rapid migration, adaptation, or deployment of software applications across diverse computing environments.

The system determines a remaining shelf life based on the determined product shelf life, and generates an event based on the remaining shelf life meeting a threshold. The system updates an indication of the remaining shelf life on a graphical interface for action.
