Abstract: Systems and methods disclosed herein provide a geo-targeted online reservation system that ensures authenticity of customer devices requesting reservations by generating reservations only if threshold authentication conditions are satisfied. For example, a computing device registered with a server system receives inputs for requesting a reservation of a limited release product and for configuring the product. To authenticate the computing device, the server device transmits an electronic message to the computing device requesting the computing device to respond. A response to the message is one threshold authentication condition for generating the reservation. Upon determining that one or more threshold authentication conditions are satisfied, the server device generates a reservation for the product.

Abstract: A chair sled attachment assembly includes a base structure, a support bracket, and a base access panel. The base structure is connected to a gaming machine cabinet in a base position projecting in a front direction from a front side of the cabinet and defines a base volume separate from a secure volume of the cabinet. The base structure also defines a base access opening to provide access to the base volume. The support bracket is located within the base volume adjacent to the base access opening and includes a support bracket connecting arrangement to which a chair sled receiver is connectable in a chair sled receiver operating position. The base access panel is removably secured to the base structure in a cover position substantially covering the base access opening.

Abstract: A device is described that includes a first microprocessor configured for interfacing with a digital access control backend, and a second microprocessor configured for dedicated communications with an access control manager device backend. The first microprocessor is a master device that controls the operation of the second microprocessor as a secondary device. The proposed device is configured for operation of the first microprocessor and the second microprocessor at low clock speeds and to maintain a hash segregation between locally received data sets and data sets transmitted to an external authentication system.

Abstract: A packaged film assembly includes a packaging material and a switchable film. The switchable film is packaged in and attached to at least a portion of the packaging material.

Abstract: Systems, devices, methods, and computer readable media for electronically controlling a user's access to one or more controlled resources are provided. A near-field communication-based mobile credential data payload is provisioned on a mobile device capable of establishing a contactless payment transaction and a low energy proximity beacon signal is periodically broadcasted. The beacon signal and an emulated contactless payment transaction can be utilized in concert to determine that the identity is authorized to access the one or more controlled resources.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for selecting a plant comprising a functional restorer gene for maize S-type cytoplasmic male sterility comprising the steps of (a) screening a population of plants for at least one marker nucleic acid, wherein the marker nucleic acid comprises an allele linked to the functional restorer gene for maize S-type cytoplasmic male sterility; (b) detecting the marker nucleic acid; (c) identifying a plant comprising the marker nucleic acid; and (d) selecting the plant comprising the marker nucleic acid, wherein the plant comprising the marker nucleic acid further comprises the functional restorer gene for maize S-type cytoplasmic male sterility. The present disclosure also provides methods for restoring fertility in a progeny of an S-type cytoplasmic male sterile plant and methods for transferring an Rf3 gene into a progeny plant.

Abstract: A packaged film assembly includes a packaging material and an insert film. The insert film is packaged in and attached to at least a portion of the packaging material. The packaging material is not laminated to another surface.

Abstract: A system and methods for interpreting a user's movement through space as a passive behavioural biometric is described. Using patterns of user's movement through space, the system detects anomalies in user movement, provides or restricts access to a restricted space without adding extra friction to the user, and generates risk events. An adjacency matrix (i.e., footprint) is generated by analyzing a user's movement through space and creating a weighted directed graph for the user. Anomalies are detected by comparing a user's footprint against the same user's earlier footprint, or the footprints of other users within a group, or the footprints of all other uses in the system.

Abstract: A newly identified protein that is encoded by a polynucleotide sequence associated with cytoplasmic male sterility restorer activity (Rf3) is described. The cytoplasmic male sterility restorer gene can be inserted through breeding introgression into plant genomes to restore cytoplasmic male sterility in plants. Further applications of the newly identified polynucleotide sequence associated with cytoplasmic male sterility restorer activity include a mutation (rf3) which results in cytoplasmic male sterility. The cytoplasmic male sterility restorer gene can be inserted through breeding introgression into plant genomes to result in cytoplasmic male sterility in plants. Methods for detecting the cytoplasmic male sterility restorer (Rf3) and the cytoplasmic male sterility (rf3) gene sequences are further described.
