Abstract: A method for generating documentation for a segment of code, comprising executing a code in a development environment for: identifying in a file an updated code segment having a first set of lines, each similar according to at least one text similarity test to one of a second set of lines of a copy of an original code segment that is part of a source documentation object and where the first set of lines is not contiguous in the updated segment and additionally or alternatively the second set of lines is not contiguous in the original segment, by applying the at least one similarity test to at least one original line of the original segment and at least one updated line of the updated segment; and generating an updated source documentation object by modifying the copy of the code segment in the source documentation object according to the updated segment.

Abstract: A technique for collecting environmental data from a remote region comprises use of a collector device with a sensor to collect environmental data and a memory to store the collected data. Collector devices are distributed to locations within the region, and the collector devices collect and store environmental data. Locations within the region are prioritized. Incentives are generated to transport environmental data based, at least in part, on the priorities. When a collector device is transported from the remote region to a location with connectivity to a host system, the stored environmental data is uploaded.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for the generation and execution of an environmental protection plan may be deployed to aid with a reduction of, for example, air-borne and/or surface pathogens within an environment. The environmental protection plan may use one or more sanitizing devices to emit sanitizing radiation (e.g., far UVC light) into the environment to kill or otherwise neutralize pathogens such as viruses and bacteria within the environment. At times, the environmental protection plan may be responsive to one or more aspects (size, objects contained therein) of the environment, a use for the environment, a modeled and/or actual pathogen load within the environment, desired levels of pathogen reduction within the environment, and/or human and/or animal safety limits for the sanitizing radiation.

Abstract: A method comprises executing a code in a development environment for: documenting versions of source files of a software program in a plurality of source documentation objects, where at least one of the source documentation objects comprises a textual description comprising one or more text-extracts, each text-extract comprising at least one marked token extracted from one of the versions of the source files; accessing a new version of a source file; performing an identification of when at least one updated token in the new version is different from the marked token; and in response to the identification: classifying the updated token according to differences identified between the updated token and the marked token; and subject to the classification being a member of a set of updatable changes, generating an updated source documentation object by modifying the text-extract in the textual description according to the classification and the differences.

Abstract: A system for preserving or establishing an ecosystem comprises an assembly coupled to a guidance component. An assembly comprises an enclosure and a substrate, and is configured to contain one or more organisms within the enclosure. The guidance component causes the assembly to be transported to a destination environment. The assembly is decoupled from the guidance component. The assembly detaches from the substrate, to integrate the one or more organisms into an ecosystem of the destination environment.

Abstract: An underwater positioning system comprises a plurality of underwater beacons. A beacon, in response to a signal sent by an underwater vehicle, responds with a signal comprising one or more characteristics to identify the beacon. Components of an access algorithm are provided to the underwater vehicle. The access algorithm determines a location of the beacon based on the beacon's identity. A position of the vehicle is determined based at least in part on the location of the beacon.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for enhancing the physical games with augmented reality is described. A system identifies a characteristic of a physical object that is located on a physical surface. The system obtains, based on the characteristic, information indicative of a rule set for the game and a state of the game based on the characteristic. A game engine is initialized based on the rule set and game state. The game engine generates a subsequent state for the game. The system renders, based on the subsequent state, an augmented reality display that incorporates the physical surface and physical object.

Abstract: An augmented-reality system classifies a subject observed in video data obtained from a first area. A goal of a user of an augmented reality device is determined based on video data obtained from a second area. A correlation between the goal of the user and the classification of the subject is determined. An augmented reality display is generated to include a visual indicia of the subject, the visual indicia generated to represent the correlation between the goal and the classification.

Abstract: A system for recognizing gestures generates a skeletal model from video data of a subject. A defined subset of attributes of the skeletal model are mapped to defined positions of a vector. A gesture is recognized by evaluating a neural network using the vector as input. The neural network, trained using training vectors generated according to the definitions of skeletal model attributes and vector positions, classifies a gesture based on the input vector.

Abstract: A system for providing a virtual reality experience obtains, from a first sensor, image data of a first subject upon entry to an area. The system obtains pose information for the first subject during a period in which the subject is within the area. A graphical asset is generated from the image data. A skeletal model is maintained based on the pose information. A virtual reality scene is generated, using the asset and skeletal model, from the perspective of a second subject.
