  • Patent number: 9584549
    Abstract: A computing platform may receive, from a network device, a message identifying data that was transmitted by a user device located in a private network associated with an organization. The network device may be located at a boundary between the private network and a public network. The data may include one or more images and may be destined for a network address associated with the public network. The computing platform may generate and store a record corresponding to the message. The computing platform may receive, from an analysis platform, data indicating whether the image(s) comprise content that violates a data leak prevention (DLP) policy of the organization. The computing platform may identify the record corresponding to the message and may update the record corresponding to the message to reflect whether the image(s) comprise content that violates the DLP policy of the organization.

  • Patent number: 8694256
    Abstract: A system and method for streetlight control is provided. A lamp sensor inside a reflector of the streetlight is utilized to detect the output of a lamp of the streetlight. During daytime periods when the lamp is OFF, the lamp sensor is utilized to act as a day/night sensor by detecting ambient light near the lamp. When the ambient light level falls below a sufficient level indicative that night is approaching the lamp is turned ON and the lamp sensor utilized to detect the lamp output of the streetlight.

  • Patent number: 7734356
    Abstract: Methods and corresponding systems for controlling a light fixture include a memory for storing data and software. A multi-tap capacitor has a plurality of tap capacitors integrated into a capacitor housing. A plurality of switches are each coupled to one of the plurality of tap capacitors for selectively coupling the tap capacitors together to produce a variable multi-tap capacitance. A processor is coupled to the memory and the switches to facilitate: detecting a trigger for changing a lumen level output by the light fixture; determining a new lumen level in response to the trigger; determining a capacitance value that corresponds to the new lumen level; and configuring the plurality of switches to produce the multi-tap capacitance that corresponds to the new lumen level. The processor can record data in the memory that represents times of lumen changes and switch settings, which data correlates to power consumption.

  • Patent number: 7608815
    Abstract: A method of compensating a photo sensor (and a corresponding photo sensor with compensation) insures the accuracy of the photo sensor, e.g., over environmental variations or photo cell variations. The method comprises: providing a first signal indicative of a light level; providing a second signal indicative of an environmental parameter, e.g., temperature; and calculating, responsive to the first signal and the second signal, a compensated signal that is indicative of an absolute light level. The calculating can be performed by a processor and utilize calibration and compensation information or parameters, which can be obtained experimentally.
