Abstract: Systems and methods that offer significant improvements to current content processing management systems for heterogeneous and widely distributed content sources are disclosed. The proposed systems and methods are configured to provide a framework and libraries of extensible components that together are designed enable creation of solutions to acquire data from one or more content repositories, possibly distributed around the world across a wide range of operating systems and hardware, process said content, and publish the resulting processed information to a search engine or other target application. The proposed embodiments offer an improved architecture that incorporates manager nodes and worker (processing) nodes, where worker nodes are configured to scan and process data, while manager nodes are configured to handle all allocation of work (including throttling) and control state and failover. Such an arrangement enables the system to perform with greater scalability and reliability.

Abstract: Systems and methods for determining operation commands for a fixture within an area of a facility. One example system includes a processor configured to: receive, from a first fixture associated with an area within a facility, operational data related to an operation of the first fixture; receive, from a second fixture associated with the area within the facility, environmental data related to a condition of the area; process the operational data and the environmental data through a status model to determine a status for the area, the status model trained with operational data and environmental data previously received from the first fixture, the second fixture, and other fixtures associated with the facility; determine an operation command for a third fixture associated with the area within the facility based on the status; and provide the operation command to the third fixture for execution.

Abstract: In some embodiments, the systems and methods built in accordance with the present disclosure may analyze audience engagement with a presentation displayed during a live meeting and may provide feedback to a presenter during and/or after the presentation. In some embodiments, the provided feedback may include determining one or more metrics indicative of participant engagement levels. Participant engagement levels may then be used to adjust live meetings in real-time and/or after the live meeting has ended. A system may include one or more presenter computing devices, one or more participant computing devices and a server system including a data analytics module configured to determine metrics indicative of participant engagement levels.

Abstract: A dry product spreader is provided that includes a bin that includes a bin discharge opening. The dry product spreader further includes a conveyor located at the bottom of the bin. The conveyor is capable of discharging dry product material from the bin through the bin discharge opening. The dry product spreader further includes a spinner assembly for spreading the dry product material and positioned to receive the dry product material from the bin discharge opening. The dry product spreader further includes a material conveyance system to displace dry product material received through the bin discharge opening before the dry product material reaches the spinner assembly. The dry product spreader further includes a distribution manifold configured to receive dry product material displaced by the material conveyance system. The distribution manifold is configured to return dry product material displaced by the material conveyance system to be spread by the spinner assembly.

Abstract: A system for augmenting 360-degree aspect monostatic radar cross section of an aircraft. The system may comprise a pair of pods mountable on opposing wing tips of an aircraft and each having a pod housing with an elongate body tapering forwardly to a nose and rearwardly to a tail. Each pod may comprise a forward SDL disposed within the nose, a rear SDL disposed within the tail, and a pair of mid-body SDLs disposed within a mid-section of the pod housing. The SDLs may be arranged within the pods to reflect radiation and provide coverage around the aircraft over a region of about 360 azimuth degrees. Each SDL may comprise radar absorbing material located on an interior reflective surface, and portions of the elongate bodies may be constructed of radome material. The SDLs may be Luneburg lens having diameters of at least approximately 8-inches.

Abstract: A roof apparatus provides a uniquely configured clip assembly or interface that connects upper roof panels to under supporting beams. In one embodiment, the clip or interface provides multidirectional movement of roof panels to under support beams. In one embodiment, a specially configured U-beam can be an understructure beam that carries utilities such as piping or electricity.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for detecting molecules of interest within a collected sample are described herein. In certain embodiments, self-contained sample analysis systems are disclosed, which include a reusable reader component, a disposable cartridge component, and a disposable sample collection component.

Abstract: Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) and Molecular Layer Deposition (MLD) provide precise and conformal coatings that are employed to modify the properties of powders for additive manufacturing (AM). We have surprisingly discovered that use of a limited number of ALD cycles can impart improved flowability. In various aspects, the coating may provide one or more advantages such as novel material properties, increased flowability, improved sintering, enhanced stability during storage, and prevention of premature sintering.

Abstract: A metal roof construction provides a roof frame that includes multiple rafters. A plurality of clips or anchor plates are fastened to each rafter. Each anchor plate or clip has an anchor plate space surrounded by one or more plate members. The anchor plate has a plurality of spaced apart openings. A sliding anchor occupies the anchor plate space. Each sliding anchor has multiple spaced apart pedestals that extend from the anchor plate space upwardly through an opening. Multiple roof decking sections are mounted on the rafters. Each decking section extends under a part of the anchor plate. The anchor plate has one or more flaps that extend downwardly from the decking sections and next to a rafter. Fasteners attach each flap to a rafter.
