Abstract: A self-laminating rotating cable marker label is constructed of a transparent film having a first adhesive area, an adhesive-free smooth area, and a second adhesive area. A print-on area forms one side of the transparent film, the print-on area adapted to receive indicia identifying the cable about which the marker label is applied. A perforation extends across the transparent film providing a line of separation of the transparent film. When wrapped around a cable, the second adhesive area overlies the print-on area such that the cable identifying indicia is visible through the transparent second adhesive area. As the transparent film is wrapped around the cable, the first adhesive area adheres to the cable. The remainder of the transparent film is rotated, breaking the perforation, whereby the smooth area of the film in contact with the cable provides smooth rotation of the label around the cable.

Abstract: Automatically create abstractions of large sets of data and then probabilistic inferences based on the abstractions. The probabilistic inference is derived from the logical hierarchy using Bayesian statistics to infer a probabilistic event based upon a characteristic of the data in a hierarchy of synthetic events. The logical hierarchy of a set of a plurality of synthetic events is related by at least one characteristic of data is built by accessing a first set of data. The first set of data is organized based on a first characteristic. A second set of data different than the first set of data is accessed. A second set of data based is organized based on a second characteristic. The first characteristic and the second characteristic are processed to generate a synthetic event. The synthetic event is a third set of data representing a result of a mathematical computation defined by an operation S(p1)==>F(p2).

Abstract: An inspection station includes a conveyor, a first scanner, a second scanner, a controller, and an interface. The conveyor is configured to continuously transport a vehicle body through the station. The first scanner is configured to detect features of the vehicle body and associated feature coordinates relative to a global coordinate system. The second scanner is configured to detect paint thicknesses on surfaces of the vehicle body and associated paint thickness coordinates relative to the global coordinate system. The controller is programmed to map corresponding pairs of the feature coordinates and paint thickness coordinates into a single set of local coordinates having a datum defined by the vehicle body such that each of the local coordinates defines a location of one of the features relative to the datum and one of the paint thicknesses at the location. The interface is configured to display the features and corresponding paint thicknesses.

Abstract: A system comprises a hashing logic, which executes instructions to convert raw data into a first logical address and payload data, where the first logical address describes metadata about the payload data. A hardware translation unit executes instructions to translate the first logical address into a first physical address on a storage device. A hardware load/storage unit stores the first logical address and the payload data at the first physical address on the storage device. A content addressable store is associated with a reference to the logical addressed data in this location addressable high dimensional store, where the content addressable store is searched for the desired content word using at least one temporal attribute to retrieve the corresponding references with low latency. A hardware exclusive OR (XOR) unit compares two logical address vectors to derive a Hamming distance between the two logical address vectors.
