Abstract: A windrow path detector for use by baling equipment. A camera system is mounted on the baling equipment and provides image data representing a stereo view of a windrow ahead of the baling equipment. A pre-processor to generates a depth image. A neural network receives the depth image and the image data from at least one camera, and is trained to use that input to generate a predicted center line over the windrow. A center path process uses the predicted center line to define a navigation path, which it delivers to a navigation system on-board the baling equipment.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes various systems and methods for measuring environmental parameters. In one embodiment, such as system comprises a pole that is equipped with various instruments (sensors) at various heights along the length of the pole.

These parameters can include one or more of wind speed and direction, air turbulence, air temperature and humidity, concentrations of pollutant gases within the air, and concentrations of pollutant particles within the air. In some embodiments, the system can further measure other parameters that are relevant to the migration of the air and, therefore, the pollutants it contains.

Abstract: Provided are techniques for sharing confidential information with privacy using a mobile phone. A voice preference and language preferences are received for an information provider profile of an information provider, where the language preferences include a first language for typing text and a second language for speaking the text. During an on-going live phone call between the information provider and an information requester, selection of a text to talk feature is received. Text is received in the first language, where the text includes confidential information. The text is converted from the first language to text in the second language. The text in the second language is converted to a voice message that is spoken in a voice identified by the voice preference through the on-going live phone call to provide the confidential information with privacy. Then, control is returned to the on-going live phone call.

Abstract: A fix defining at least one unique change to at least a portion of a computer program can be identified. The fix can be applied to the computer program to generate a test version of the computer program As each of the unique changes is applied, program code unites in the computer program changed can be identified. A number of test cases available to test the program code units changed can be determined by matching each of the program code units changed to corresponding data entries. A test readiness index indicating a readiness of the fix to be tested can be generated. The test readiness index can be based on a number of unique changes to the computer program defined by the fix and a number of test cases available to test the unique changes to the computer program defined by the fix. The test readiness index can be output.

Abstract: A fix defining fix defining a plurality of unique changes to a computer program can be identified. Program code units in the computer program changed by the unique changes are identified and corresponding data entries in a first data structure can be generated. A number of test cases available to test the program code units in the computer program changed by the unique changes can be determined by matching each of the program code units to corresponding data entries contained in a second data structure that correlates program code units to test cases. A test readiness index indicating a readiness of the fix to be tested can be automatically generated. The test readiness index can be based on a number of unique changes to the computer program defined by the fix and the number of test cases available to test the unique changes. The test readiness index can be output.
