Abstract: A content management platform automatically identifies content items that are presented during videoconferences. The platform is configured to access a video file that contains a plurality of frames of a recording of a videoconference, where the recording of the videoconference contains a record of screen sharing by one or more participants in the videoconference.

Abstract: An indoor location is mapped into a grid comprising grid cells, each cell associated with items or objects detected as being present in the corresponding cell. The grid, grid cells, and linked items and/or objects are generated and updated using an Augmented Reality (AR) algorithm that maps a physical environment into cells and measures distances and directions within the environment relative to each cell. Walking paths (routes) to the items within the indoor location are generated using the grid information. As a user walks a path, the user's position within the indoor location is mapped and tracked to the cells and the path revised based on the user's actual position. A user device provides video via an AR application to track the user's position; a rendering of the position and path are superimposed within the video being viewed by the user on the user-operated device.

Abstract: Techniques for determining calibration data associated with a radio frequency (RF) testing environment are discussed herein. For example, an RF signal can be input to the RF enclosure and selectively applied to discrete attenuators. The attenuators can attenuate a strength of the signal and a signal strength can be measured by various user equipment (UEs) that are located within an RF enclosure. In some examples, a plurality of measured reference signal received power (RSRP) values can be determined by a plurality of UEs associated with a particular attenuation level. Different attenuation levels can be measured, and an average attenuation can be determined for attenuation steps. Measured attenuation steps can be extrapolated to other attenuation levels to expedite the calibration process. Then, a testing plan can be applied to the RF enclosure and the calibration data can be used to ensure accurate signals for testing UEs.
