Abstract: A three-dimensional print head apparatus may include a securing mechanism, a hopper, a nozzle, a heating system, and a fume extraction system. The securing mechanism may be adapted to secure to a wrist joint of a robotic arm. The hopper may have a cavity and a lower aperture and may be secured to the securing mechanism. The nozzle may have an upper aperture and a lower aperture. The heating system may be positioned along the barrel.

Abstract: A mounting device connects a rotary shaft to a rotatable machine element. The mounting device includes an inner sleeve for clamping onto the shaft and an outer sleeve for clamping onto the machine element. The inner and outer sleeves have cooperating tapered surfaces for tightening the mounting device. The cooperating tapered surfaces include striations. A nut connected with the inner and outer sleeves is rotatable to drive the inner sleeve relative to the outer sleeve in a first direction to tighten the inner sleeve onto the shaft and the outer sleeve onto the machine element.

Abstract: A wireless analytics system and method are disclosed that take shoppers through an initial registration process, after which they can access the Internet quickly and easily every time they visit any of the retailer's stores. During future visits to any of the retailer's store locations the shopper's device is automatically granted network access as soon as it is within wireless range. Once on the network, a shopper can access websites, social networks, and shopping resources from across the mobile web. The system collects information about these access events, including the location and timestamp of each access event. The retailer may be notified when a shopper enters their store. This information may automate the check-in process for processes within the retail store or within a mobile application.

Abstract: In some implementations, video camera networks can be used to track people or objects and determine their locations. In some implementations, location accuracy better than one meter can be achieved using video cameras. According to some implementations, Wi-Fi localization and video localization systems can be fused together to perform calibration. In some implementations, by using the video network to continuously update the Wi-Fi localization calibration database, Wi-Fi location accuracy can be improved.

Abstract: According to some implementations, an estimate of a target's location can be calculated by correlating Wi-Fi and video location measurements. This spatio-temporal correlation combines the Wi-Fi and video measurements to determine an identity and location of an object. The accuracy of the video localization and the identity from the Wi-Fi network provide an accurate location of the Wi-Fi identified object.

Abstract: In some implementations, a user can enable random device identifier generation on a mobile device. When random device identifier generation is enabled, the mobile device will generate random device identifiers in response to detecting a triggering event. The random device identifiers will be used to communicate with a network instead of the actual identifier of the mobile device. In some implementations, a data collection server can collect information about mobile devices, including actual mobile device identifiers. The data collection server can receive a request for the information collected about the mobile devices. In response to the request, the data collection server can generate a response to the requests that includes the mobile device information. In some implementations, when generating the response to the request, the data collection server can replace the actual device identifiers in the response with a random device identifier.

Abstract: A power management circuit for use in a peripheral module such as a network interface card is presented. The circuit facilitates low power network monitoring for ‘Wake On LAN’ or ‘Plug In and Go’ applications as well as for network-initiated configuration and operation of a peripheral or network interface card's host computer. The circuit detects initial application of operational power and initiates assertion of sufficient power for evaluating the earlier programmed configuration parameters. Upon completion of the evaluation of the configuration parameters, the circuit sustains standby power to the portion of the network interface card that is monitoring the network traffic for a wake-up command when the configuration parameters so dictate.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an illuminated connector that may be illuminated from a light source that is not immediately adjacent to the connector. The connector is illuminated by projecting a focused beam of light onto a translucent portion of the connector. The focused beam of light may then be redirected so as to illuminate selected sections of the connector in order to indicate diagnostic information or identify the source or model of the electronic device in which the connector is placed.
