Abstract: Methods and systems for selecting and delivering content are provided. More particularly, content can be delivered to an output device from a user device through a device adaptor, such as an over-the-top (OTT) device. The OTT device or devices available to the user device are determined by a communication server. In particular, the OTT device or devices available to the user device are limited to those OTT devices associated with an output device in the user's room, or that the user is otherwise authorized to access.

Abstract: A method of pumping DEF (diesel exhaust fluid) in a diesel emissions control system. The method includes pumping DEF from an auxiliary DEF tank to an onboard DEF tank. The DEF is pumped from the auxiliary DEF tank to the onboard DEF tank. The fluid pathway is purged with air after pumping the DEF from the auxiliary DEF tank to the onboard DEF tank. The air is pumped (1) through the fluid pathway from the auxiliary DEF tank, or (2) into the auxiliary DEF tank.

Abstract: A cot can include a support frame that extends between a front end and a back end. A front leg and a back leg can be slidingly coupled to the support frame. A front actuator can be coupled to the front leg and slide the front leg to retract and extend the front leg. A back actuator can be coupled to the back leg and slide the back leg to retract and extend the front leg. One or more processors can execute machine readable instructions to receive signals from one or more sensors indicative of the front end of the cot and the front leg. The one or more processors can actuate the back actuator to extend the back leg to raise the back end of the cot, when the front end of the cot is supported by a surface and the front leg is retracted a predetermined amount.

Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling the exposure of data privacy elements are provided. The systems and methods may generate an artificial profile model. The artificial profile model may include a constraint for generating new artificial profiles. A signal may be received indicating that a computing device is requesting access to a network location. One or more data privacy elements associated with the computing device can be detected. An artificial profile can be determined for the computing device.

The one or more data privacy elements may be automatically modified according to the constraint included in the artificial profile model. The method may include generating a new artificial profile for the computing device. The new artificial profile may include the modified one or more data privacy elements. The new artificial profile may mask the computing device from being identified.

Abstract: An apparatus for enclosing a storage area of a vehicle is described. A first door encloses a first portion of one side of the storage area. A second door encloses a second portion of the one side of the storage area. A first pair of hinges is associated with the first door. Each of the first pair of hinges are located at opposite ends of a first edge of the first door and enable the first door to move between an open position and a closed position with respect to the first portion of the storage area. A second pair of hinges is associated with the second door. Each of the second pair of hinges are located at opposite ends of a first edge of the second door and enable the second door to move between an open position and a closed position with respect to the second portion of the storage area. A first pair of latches associated with the first door latch the first door into the closed position. A second pair of latches associated with the second door latch the second door into the closed position.

Abstract: A system configured to improve the operations associated with generating virtual representations on limited resources of a mobile device. In some cases, the system may utilize viewpoint bundles that include collection of image data with an associated pose in relative physical proximity to each other to render a virtual scene. In other cases, the system may utilize 2.5D manifolds including 2D image data and a weighted depth value to render the 3D environment.

Abstract: A crash-ready, portable, item compartmentalization device may include a shell which includes a first half shell and a second half shell. The first half shell and the second half shell may have substantially similar dimensions and define an interior space and an exterior space. One or more pouches may be removably coupled to the shell in the interior space. The crash-ready, portable, item compartmentalization device may be relocated throughout the interior of an emergency vehicle when used with an equipment mounting system or taken to the field for use away from the emergency vehicle. The individual pouches may also be removed and replaced with stocked pouches to replenish the crash-ready, portable, item compartmentalization device.
