Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for indicating location status. A computing device can receive a query from a user device, a current time, and a location for the user device. The computing device identifies results responsive to the query, including one or more business results that are each associated with a business location and operating hours. The computing device can select a subset of the business results as open results based on the operating hours of the business results, the current time, and travel times from the device location to the respective business locations. Data can be provided for a search engine results page that designates the subset of the business results as open results.

Abstract: An optical measurement device includes: a measurement region in which a measurement object is disposed; a light beam scanning unit that irradiates the measurement region with light beam and scans the light beam in a scanning direction intersecting with an irradiation direction of the light beam; a light receiving unit that receives the light beam that has passed through the measurement region and outputs a light receiving signal; a signal processing unit that outputs data indicative of a dimension in the scanning direction of the measurement object based on the light receiving signal; and an optical path cover that is configured to be removably attachable to a housing of the light beam scanning unit and covers an optical path of the light beam in a range from the housing to the measurement object.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for transcoding and providing resources. A query is received. A resource is generated, and the resource, when processed by a client device, causes the client device to perform various operations. The operations include displaying a search result having an associated landing page and detecting user interaction with the search result. The operations include, in response to detecting user interaction with the search result, displaying a first portion of the landing page that is embedded within the resource and requesting, over a network, a second portion of the landing page. The operations include receiving the second portion of the landing page, and loading the second portion of the landing page. The generated resource is provided in response to the query.

Abstract: An optical measuring device includes: an emission device configured to emit a scanning light, of which an optical axis parallelly moves, to an object; a light receiving element configured to perform photoelectric conversion with respect to the scanning light after passing over the object; a calculation device configured to calculate, from a voltage wave obtained from time change of an electrical signal that is output by the light receiving element, a distance corresponding to a time range from a first edge with respect to a voltage value where the scanning light is not interrupted by the object and a second edge with respect to a voltage value where the scanning light is interrupted by the object, when a part of the scanning light is interrupted by the object for the time range.

Abstract: Utilizing publishing and subscribing clients in network media channels having a first network coupled to at least a first server and a second server. The first server includes storage configured to store media data, and a network media channel manager configured to send and receive the media data according to one or more network media channels. The first server is also coupled to a publishing client, which is configured to publish the media data using a first network media channel selected from the one or more network media channels, and a subscribing client in a local network external to a first network. The subscribing client subscribes and accesses the media data using a second network media channel selected from the one or more network media channels. One or more network media channels include at least one local channel that is limited to the local network so that only the subscribing client can present to the local channel.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for adjusting search results based on device specific utilities. In one aspect, a method includes determining whether a set of search results are ineligible for an adjustment operation based a query being a navigational query. For each query for which the search results are determined to be eligible for an adjustment operation based on a determination that the query is not a navigational query, the search results are adjusted so that the search results referencing resources in a first proper subset are boosted relative to the search results referencing resources in a second proper subset.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for modifying search results. In one aspect, a method includes receiving data that specify a set of responsive resources for a search request that was submitted by a user device. A determination is made that a resource request for a particular resource from the set of responsive resources will cause the user device to be redirected to a different resource than the particular resource. In response to the determination a reference to the different resource is inserted into a search result for the particular resource. The search result for the particular resource is provided to the user device, where the search result includes the reference to the different resource.
