Abstract: A method of communicating an alert includes: encoding data received from a plurality of sources by a central content controller (CCC) and determining existence of one or more alerts. If no alerts exist, the encoded data is assigned as streams to subchannels. For existing alerts, a market area (MA) is determined and the alert is assigned as a stream to a data subchannel and the encoded data is assigned as streams to remaining subchannels. For each MA without an applicable alert, the encoded data is assigned as streams to the subchannels. The assigned data is transmitted to regional controllers (RCs) for broadcasting to the associated MAs.

Further, the glass element has a stress profile such that it does not fail when it is subject to 200,000 cycles of bending to a target bend radius of from 1 mm to 20 mm, by the parallel plate method. Still further, the glass element has a puncture resistance of greater than about 1.5 kgf when the first primary surface of the glass element is loaded with a tungsten carbide ball having a diameter of 1.5 mm.

Abstract: Systems and methods for switching communication pathways between a mobile device and connected “Internet of Things” (IOT) device are described to improve scalability and communication between devices. An application on the mobile device may determine whether local or virtual local endpoints are available to route communications without using a remote IoT server endpoint. Communications and updates from multiple co-located, but not necessarily user-related connected devices may be aggregated, and sent to a remote IoT server to reduce the peak load scalability requirement of the server.

Abstract: Example implementations include aspects for controlling a security system monitoring an environment, comprising collecting sensor data from a plurality of sensors located in the environment, and determining whether a plurality of characteristics of a security event are present in the environment. A determination for each characteristic includes a confidence score indicative of a likelihood that the characteristic is present. The aspects further include identifying, from a plurality of pre-determined environment states, a state of the environment based on a current time and an event schedule of the environment, and generating a combined score that is a function of each respective confidence score and a plurality of weights, wherein each weight corresponds to a respective characteristic and has a value based on the state of the environment. The implementations further include determining that the combined score is greater than a threshold score, and generating an alert indicative of the security event.
