Abstract: Described herein is a cloud-based omnichannel customer interaction service, also referred to as a contact center service, that deploys an improved data model for capturing customer interaction data. From the data model, a database schema is instantiated to include a set of related database tables. The arrangement and relationship of the data and the database tables improves the functioning of the contact center service in a variety of ways, to include seamless concurrent communications between customer and agent across multiple channels, and seamless transitions between agents, who can be added to a customer interaction with relative ease.

Abstract: Embodiments are described for detecting optical discrepancies associated with image capture analyzing pixels in multiple images corresponding to common points of reference in a physical environment. In an embodiment, photometric error values are averaged over time to compute the mean error at each pixel. Once the estimate of the mean error has a sufficient number of updates above a specified value, the estimate is thresholded to provide a mask of any optical discrepancies occurring in the stereo pair of images. Applications include detecting optical discrepancies in images captured for use by a visual navigation system in guiding an autonomous vehicle (e.g., an unmanned aerial vehicle).

Abstract: A battery pack test connector that is configured for testing battery packs by connecting to a terminal on the battery pack to conduct the testing. The battery pack test connector can be configured to perform electrical testing, vacuum/pressure leak testing, or both electrical testing and vacuum/pressure leak testing. The ability to perform both electrical testing and leak testing using the same, single test connector eliminates the need for separate test connectors, one for electrical testing and one for vacuum/pressure leak testing. The test connector may also include a removable and replaceable cartridge that includes electrical contacts, a vacuum/pressure leak test passageway, and a mechanical seal for conducting leak testing. The cartridge allows replacement of worn parts without replacing the entire test connector.

Abstract: The present invention is a peer-to-peer (or peer-to-server) technology that allows users or devices to purchase computing power, sensor data, and content from one another via cryptocurrency (Carbon12). Shared computing power distributed across multiple devices permits convenient devices with compact hardware as CPU requirements. The technology includes protocols and methods for transmission, exchange, valuation, advertisement of devices' computing power, sensor data, cache memory, certain algorithmic functions, and finally, settlement features for purchasing or selling the aforementioned. The network and its features allow users to display, consume, and compute augmented reality content through their devices, solving multiple AR and computer vision space issues. Payments using the cryptocurrency Carbon12 provide users with an incentive to share their dormant computing power, thereby creating a network of participating nodes, increasing the capability and accessibility of the present invention.

Abstract: In an electrical distribution system including a solid-state circuit breaker (SSCB) and one or more downstream mechanical circuit breakers (CBs), a solid-state switching device in the SSCB is repeatedly switched ON and OFF during a short circuit event, to reduce a root-mean-square (RMS) value of the short circuit current. The resulting pulsed short circuit current is regulated in a hysteresis control loop, to limit the RMS to a value low enough to prevent the SSCB from tripping prematurely but high enough to allow one of the downstream mechanical CBs to trip and isolate the short circuit. Pulsing is allowed to continue for a maximum short circuit pulsing time. Only if none of the downstream mechanical CBs is able to trip to isolate the short circuit within the maximum short circuit pulsing time is the SSCB allowed to trip.
