Abstract: A system and method for managing items for fulfilment of an order in a warehouse are provided. The method comprises retrieving, at one instance, at least one item of the one or more items associated with an order being processed; scanning the items to generate a scan information therefor; assigning one of storage bins of a plurality of storage bins to the order being processed based on the acquired scan information; one of one or more sorting robots, provided on one or more platform levels to collect the said at least one item and transfer the said at least one item to the assigned storage bin to the order being processed; and transferring the said assigned storage bin to a packaging station in the warehouse, when each of the one or more items associated with the order being processed are transferred to the said assigned storage bin.

Abstract: An instrumented baseball or softball bat knob comprising a knob housing including a generally cylindrical member inserted into a handle end of the bat and a knob portion attached to the cylindrical member. The knob portion has a diameter that is larger than a diameter of the handle end of the bat. An electronics package is mounted within the knob housing and includes one or more sensors, a microcontroller (processor), memory device and a battery to generate and store data relative to conditions of a batter's swing. The electronics package may also include a wireless transmitter/antenna/transceiver to transmit swing condition data to an external, remote processing unit.

Abstract: A real-time transport packet creating system and method are provided for use with a source terminal, a destination terminal and a real-time transport packet. The real-time transport packet creating device includes a receiver, a latency generator and a transmitter. The receiver can receive the real-time transport packet from the source terminal at a first time. The latency generator can generate an output real-time transport packet. The transmitter can transmit the output real-time transport packet to the destination terminal at a second time. The output real-time transport packet is based on the received real-time transport packet, the first time and the second time.

Abstract: A method (250) for signaling a facsimile pass through mode over a voice over internet protocol voice service is disclosed. The method (250) includes: establishing (260) a voice over internet protocol call; detecting (270) that a facsimile tone has been received by a sender; and sending (280) a facsimile pass through notify message, from the sender, in response to detecting that the facsimile tone has been received. Advantageously, the method 250 can be adapted to inform the voice over internet protocol service provider about the details of an ongoing facsimile call in pass through mode. Advantageously, this can provide usage information, quality of transmission information, billing information and other useful information.

Abstract: Systems and methods for computing latency introduced by media transcoding operations are described. In some embodiments, a method may include receiving incoming Real-Time Protocol (RTP) packets, each having time of arrival and a payload encoded with a first codec and receiving outgoing RTP packets, each having a time of transmission and a payload encoded with a second codec. The method may also include calculating a latency associated with a transcoding of at least one of the incoming RTP packets into at least one corresponding one of the outgoing RTP packets based upon a difference between the time of transmission of the at least one corresponding one of the outgoing RTP packets and the time of arrival of the at least one of the incoming RTP packets. In some cases, the incoming and outgoing RTP packets may be Voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP) packets.

Abstract: A method (250) of intercepting a VOIP communication is disclosed. The method (250) includes: detecting (260) whether a subscriber-caller to be monitored goes off-hook; intercepting (270) the subscriber-caller when off-hook, if lawful intercept is authorized; and sending (280) substantially all communications between the subscriber-caller and a subscriber-callee, to a subscriber-agent. Advantageously, this can provide an efficient, useful, repeatable and scalable way to intercept VOIP communications.

Abstract: A method (250) of measuring activity over a VOIP call is disclosed. The method (250) includes: detecting (260) whether a voice over internet protocol call includes a comfort noise payload format; and counting (270) the number of comfort noise packets transmitted during a voice over internet protocol call. Advantageously, this can provide usage information, quality of transmission information, billing information and other useful information.
