Abstract: A method of repairing an air data probe includes assessing an air data probe for a damaged portion. The method includes depositing a material on the air data probe to repair the damaged portion of the air data probe. An air data probe includes a probe body including a sense port inlet defined through a wall of the probe body. At least a portion of the wall surrounding the sense port inlet is defined by a deposited material having a different microstructure than a material defining another portion of the wall.

Abstract: An air data probe includes a strut including a socket defining an interior surface of the strut and an interior groove extending radially into the interior surface. The air data probe also includes a probe head partially positioned within the socket, the probe head including an exterior surface and an exterior groove extending radially into the exterior surface, the exterior groove being axially alignable with the interior groove. The air data probe further includes a retaining ring partially positionable within the exterior groove and partially positionable within the interior groove when the exterior groove and the interior groove are axially aligned to axially retain the probe head to the strut while allowing the probe head to rotate relative to the strut.

Abstract: Approaches enable three-dimensional (3D) display and interaction with interfaces (such as a webpage, an application, etc.) when the device is operating in a 3D view mode. For example, interface elements can be highlighted, emphasized, animated, or otherwise altered in appearance, and/or arrangement in the renderings of those interfaces based at least in part on an orientation of the device or a position of a user using the device. Further, the 3D view mode can provide for an animated 3D departure and appearance of elements as the device navigates from a current page to a new page. Further still, approaches provide for the ability to specify 3D attributes (such as the appearance, action, etc.) of the interface elements. In this way, a developer of such interfaces can use information (e.g., tags, CSS, JavaScript, etc.) to specify a 3D appearance change to be applied to at least one interface element when the 3D view mode is activated.

Abstract: Devices, systems and methods are disclosed for emphasizing particular text in reflowable content. Primary text, such as keywords or sentences related to a most recent input, and secondary text, such as row(s) of text including the keywords and/or sentences, are determined. The primary text may be emphasized using a first effect and the secondary text may be emphasized using a second effect, while an opacity of non-emphasized text may be reduced. Content is displayed initially with the first effect, the second effect and the reduced opacity, and an animation sequence removes the first effect and the second effect and increases the opacity in intervals until the content is displayed uniformly. Thus content that is of interest to a reader (such as a previous reading location) may be emphasized when a screen refreshes with reflowed content.

Abstract: A dock device connects participating devices such as a tablet device and an audio activated device, allowing them to operate as a single device. These participating devices may be associated with different accounts, each account being associated with particular “speechlets” or data processing functions. A natural language understanding (NLU) system uses NLU models to process text obtained from an automatic speech recognition (ASR) system to determine a set of possible intents. A second set of possible intents may then be generated that is limited to those possible intents that correspond to the speechlets associated with the docked device. The intents within the second set of possible intents are ranked, and the highest ranked intent may be deemed to be the intent of the user. Command data corresponding to the highest ranked intent may be generated and used to perform the action associated with that intent.

Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for determining transmit weights are provided. One method includes selecting users to pair for multi-user multiple input multiple output transmission, calculating multi-user multiple input multiple output (MU-MIMO) transmit weights in a communication system employing an analog electrically steered array with Q antennas, applying the multi-user multiple input multiple output weights to the transmitted signals, and transmitting the weighted signals from an antenna array. The calculating may include calculating the MU-MIMO transmit weights so that a sum of power across a same element of the selected users' weight vectors is equal on all of the antennas and one of either sum throughput across users or sum signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) across users is maximized.

Abstract: A system that generates a personalized content grouped by type and ordered by relevancy. The system determines relevant data for individual feature groups, determines first feature groups that have relevant data to display and displays a page of content for each of the first feature groups. For example, a first page of content may indicate a clock, temperature, weather forecast or timer, a second page of content may correspond to communications and indicate a recent message, a third page of content may correspond to a calendar and may indicate an upcoming event, a fourth page of content may correspond to shipping notifications and may indicate an upcoming shipment, a fifth page of content may correspond to contacts and may indicate an available favorite contact and a sixth page of content may correspond to trending news. The device may generate synthesized speech corresponding to the display of content.

In various implementations, the aerosol delivery device comprises a control body having a housing, an electrical energy source located within the housing, a heating member operatively connected to the electrical energy source, an aerosol source member that includes an inhalable substance medium, and an indexing mechanism coupled to the heating member. The indexing mechanism is configured to move the heating member relative to the aerosol source member so as to sequentially heat one of two or more segments of the aerosol source member.

Abstract: Systems and methods for displaying an audio indicator including a main portion having a width proportional to a volume of a particular phoneme of an utterance is described herein. In some embodiments, audio data representing an utterance may be received at a speech-processing system from a user device. The speech-processing system may determine a maximum volume amplitude for the utterance, and using the maximum volume amplitude, may determine a normalized amplitude value between 0 and 1 associated with a volume that phoneme's of an utterance are spoken. The speech-processing system may then map the normalized amplitude value(s) to widths for a main portion of an audio indicator, where larger normalized amplitude values may correspond to smaller main portion widths.
