Abstract: A system for hanging objects from a mounting surface is presented. In one or more arrangements, the system includes a mounting rail and one or more hanging members configured to attach to the mounting rail and facilitate hanging of objects therefrom. The mounting rail includes a channel member that provides a channel having a downward facing open end. The hanging members are configured to be inserted into and held within the channel of the channel member. The hanging members each have a body configured to hang or hold one or more objects. Hanging members have a head portion configured to be inserted into and held within the channel. The hanging member also has a neck portion. When the head portion is held within the channel, the neck portion extends through the open end of the channel and connects the head portion to the body of the hanging member.

Abstract: Aspects of the present invention include a feedlot bunk calling system comprising a mobile sensor arrangement comprising a ranging sensor unit, for generating a range signal indicative of a distance between the ranging sensor unit and a surface of feed within a feedlot bunk, and a positioning sensor unit, for generating a position signal indicative of a geospatial position of the mobile sensor arrangement. The system further comprises a computing module configured to generate an estimate or indication of an amount of feed in the feedlot bunk, based at least in part on the range signal and the position signal.

Abstract: A method of and system for presentencing a user interface for the visually impaired is carried by dividing a user interface area of a user interface into a plurality of sections, mapping a different audible tone to each one of the plurality of sections, associating each one of the plurality of sections with a category, displaying a pane in one section of the plurality of sections, the pane having information about the category associated with the one section, receiving a first touch gesture on the pane, outputting a first audio signal having an audible tone mapped to the section, and depending on a type of the first touch gesture, outputting speech data for at least some of the information, the some of the information depending on a duration and a direction of the first touch gesture.

Abstract: Techniques to provide a user interface usable by anyone including the visually impaired are disclosed. Embodiments include dividing a display area of an electronic device into a workspace comprising a plurality of sections; associating each section with a different category; displaying a pane in a section including information for the associated category; receiving a touch gesture on a pane for a section; and outputting an audio signal comprising information of the pane. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Mechanisms for navigation via three dimensional audio effects are described. A current location of a device and a first point of interest are determined. The point of interest may be determined based on a web service and the current location of the device may be determined via mobile device signals. A zone that includes the point of interest may be determined. A three dimensional audio effect that simulates a sound being emitted from the zone may be generated. The three dimensional audio effect may be transmitted to speakers capable of simulating three dimensional audio effects. The transmitted three dimensional audio effect may aid in navigation from a current location to the point of interest.
