Abstract: A method of determining a physical location for an address. The method includes receiving from a first global positioning system on a vehicle a first set of global positioning data indicative of a vehicle location. The method may also receive from a second global positioning system on a portable electronic device a second set of global positioning data indicative of a portable electronic device location. The method may also receive a set of location metadata associated with a picture. The method determines a residence location from the first set of global positioning data, the second set of global positioning data, or the set of location metadata. The method then associates the physical location to the address.

Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure include at least one building component detection sensor device configured to be deployed within (or proximate to) a building comprised of a plurality of building components. The at least one building component detection sensor device is configured to detect data relating to at least one building component of the plurality of building components. In addition, a building component property determination system includes a processor configured to execute instructions stored in memory to determine one or more properties of the at least one building component based at least in part on the data detected by the at least one building component detection sensor device.

Abstract: A system may include a router that may receive a plurality of data packets from one or more devices that communicatively couples to the router. The system may also include at least one processor that identifies an identity of a device based on a data packet received by the router from the device, generate an insurance policy that includes the device in response to identifying the identity of the device, and sends a notification indicative of the insurance policy to a computing device in response to generating the insurance policy.

Abstract: A variable-geometry ducted fan may include an air duct having a longitudinal axis, the air duct including an inlet of the variable-geometry ducted fan, a fan rotatably mounted within the air duct downstream from the inlet, the fan including fan blades defining a fan area, and a variable-area nozzle coupled to the air duct downstream from the fan, the variable-area nozzle including an exhaust of the variable-geometry ducted fan having a variable exhaust area.

Abstract: An airborne mobile platform generally includes a plurality of rotating rotor blades operating in an airflow that forms a boundary layer on each of the rotor blades. At least one of the rotor blades includes a section that encounters the airflow that includes an unsteady subsonic airflow having at least a varying angle of attack. At least one of the rotor blades also includes one or more vortex generators on the at least one of the rotor blades that generate a vortex that interacts with the boundary layer to at least delay an onset of separation of the boundary layer, to increase a value of an unsteady maximum lift coefficient and to reduce a value of an unsteady pitching moment coefficient for the section.
