Abstract: The technology as disclosed herein includes a method and apparatus for deboning a meat item, and more particular for deboning a poultry item including performing an initial shoulder cut for removing boneless breast meat from the poultry carcass or frame. The method and apparatus disclosed and claimed herein is a combination of a robotic arm including an ultrasonic knife implement and a vision system for varying the cut path based on the shape and size of the poultry item. The combination as claimed including the ultrasonic knife can perform a meat cut while penetrating the meat with less force than the typical penetration that occurs when using a traditional knife.

Abstract: A method of performing regional heating of a substrate by electromagnetic induction heating. The method may include applying a semiconductor film to the substrate and controllably energizing a coil positioned near the substrate. The energized coil(s) thereby generates a magnetic flux, which induces a current in the substrate and/or the semiconductor film, thereby heating the substrate and/or semiconductor film. The method may also include relative motion between the coil and the substrate to provide translation heating of the semiconductor film. Additionally, a crystal seeding mechanism may be employed to further control the crystallization process.

Abstract: Methods and systems for facilitating generation of electronic advertising messages based on model web pages. A visual content request is received that identifies a model web page. Source code is retrieved that includes patterns that can be matched to identify visual features of the model web page. Visual content information is provided to an advertising message generation service to construct advertising messages that include at least a portion of the identified visual features. Constructed advertising messages are received, including at least one modified advertising message that incorporates a user-selected image extracted from the model web page. The identified visual features of the model web page can include text format, text color, background color, images, and video sequences.

Abstract: A facility for constructing an advertising message in connection with a web page is described. The facility obtains text associated with the web page, and uses the obtained text to generate a query. The facility uses the generated query to select a stock photography image, and generates an advertising message that incorporates the selected stock photography image.

Abstract: A facility for generating advertising messages is described. The facility receives a feed containing information describing each of a plurality of textual advertising messages. For each of the textual advertising messages described by the information contained by the received feed, irrespective of any user input, the facility identifies a web page associated with the textual advertising message; extracts visual content from the identified web page; and constructs an advertising message that contains the extracted visual content.

Abstract: A facility for analyzing electronic advertising is described. The facility determines that a particular client device has been used to activate a first advertising message for a particular cause. In response, the facility identifies a second advertising message for that cause that was presented on the same client device at a time before the first advertising message was activated. In response, the facility determines that the activation of the first advertising message is at least partly attributable to the presentation of the second advertising message.

Abstract: Aluminum belt-discharge bodies configured for installation on frames of straight truck or trailer chassis used in construction materials hauling. The use of aluminum provides substantial weight savings, which allows for an increase in the payload that can be hauled by the truck to the paving machine. The belt bodies also feature a wider unloading belt as compared to conventional steel live-bottom trucks, which increases efficiency, reduces unloading time and generates faster cycle times. The wider bottom lowers the center of gravity of the vehicle, resulting in more stability and safety. Furthermore, a wider body with sloped side walls reduces and/or eliminates the effects of transportation segregation of the asphalt or aggregate being hauled. Belt-discharge bodies according to the invention effectively remix the material being hauled as it is unloaded.

Abstract: An action uniform resource identifier (URI) is sent from a web service to a user device in response to a request from the user device. The action URI identifies at least one native task for execution by the user device. The task, when executed, interacts with at least one resource local to the user device. The received action URI is provided by the user device to an application to perform the task involving the local resource. The response may include hosted UI elements not available on the user device. The hosted UI elements enable presentation of new data types on the user device, which may not be adequately presented using pre-defined UI templates. The hosted UI elements interact with elements of the pre-defined UI templates to generate new UI layouts. The action URIs and hosted UI elements are provided and execute without replacing already-installed application code.
