Abstract: Implementations are described herein for augmenting a traditional search session with stateful chat—via what will be referred to as a “generative companion”—to facilitate more interactive searching. In various implementations, a query may be received, e.g., from a client device operated by a user. Contextual information associated with the user or the client device may be retrieved. Generative model (GM) output may be generated based on processing, using a generative model, data indicative of the query and the contextual information. Synthetic queries may be generated using the GM output, and search result documents (SRDs) may be selected. State data indicative of: the query, contextual information, one or more of the synthetic queries, and the set of search result documents, may be processed to identify a classification of the query. Based on the classification downstream GM(s) may be selected and used to generate one or more additional GM outputs.

Abstract: A system according to one embodiment includes an access control device comprising a lock mechanism configured to secure access to a passageway, and a UWB accessory device configured to receive a credential of the mobile device via Bluetooth communication, determine, using UWB ranging of the UWB accessory device, a location of a mobile device relative to the passageway secured by the lock mechanism of the access control device, determine whether a user of the mobile device intends to access the passageway based on the determined location of the user relative to the passageway, and communicate an indication that the user intends to access the passageway to the electronic lock via Bluetooth communication, and wherein the access control device is configured to unlock the lock mechanism in response to the indication that the user intends to access the passageway.

Abstract: A vehicle may comprise an actuator system. The actuator system may comprise an indicia portion (e.g., a retroreflector, etc.), a masking element that exposes the indicia portion in a first state and covers the indicia portion in a second state, and a linkage coupling the masking element to an actuator. In the case of a bidirectional vehicle, operation of the actuator may be based at least in part on a determination of the vehicle changing a direction of travel. The actuator system may cause a first set of one or more actuator systems disposed on a first end of the vehicle to transition from a first state to a second state and/or cause a second set of one or more actuator systems disposed on a second end opposite the first end of the vehicle to transition from the second state to the first state.

Abstract: A co-registration system includes a processor circuit that displays one or more intravascular images corresponding to locations along a blood vessel and associated bookmarks within a corresponding x-ray image. The processor circuit receives, from an x-ray imaging device, x-ray images while an intravascular catheter moves through the blood vessel. The processor circuit receives, from the catheter, intravascular data representative of the blood vessel. The processor circuit co-registers the intravascular data to an x-ray image received from the x-ray imaging device. During an imaging phase, the processor circuit generates and displays, based on the coregistered data, bookmarks along the blood vessel. During a later treatment phase, the bookmarks are also displayed in different x-ray images, along with one or more intravascular image corresponding to locations along the blood vessel at which a treatment device is positioned.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods, devices and systems for performing the removal of thrombus from a vessel lumen. More particularly the present invention relates to a thrombectomy system that includes an elongate catheter and a disposable aspiration pump and methods of performing medical procedures to remove clots, thrombus and emboli to re-establish the normal intravascular flow of blood.

Abstract: Features are disclosed for a dynamic security seal indicating a security of an application. A computing device can receive a request to implement a dynamic security seal for an application. The computing device can validate a relationship between an entity and the application and between an image and the application. Based on validating these relationships, the computing device can generate a dynamic security seal. When implemented, the dynamic security seal may display a plurality of faces. A face of the plurality of faces may be the image. The dynamic security seal can sequentially display the plurality of faces based on various criteria.

Abstract: A system comprises an interface and a processor.
