  • Publication number: 20240085716
    Abstract: A system for providing variable opacity includes a polarization assembly disposed at a vehicle. The polarization assembly includes a first panel having a plurality of first polarizing elements, and a second panel having a plurality of second polarizing elements, the first panel and the second panel overlapping in a path of light incident on the vehicle. The system also includes an actuation device configured to linearly translate the first panel relative to the second panel between a first position in which the polarization assembly is transparent to the light and a second position in which the polarization assembly at least partially blocks the light.

  • Publication number: 20210332408
    Abstract: Poly and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAs) are extremely resistant to natural degradation. Described herein are compositions, assays, and methods for generating microorganisms capable of accelerating degradation of these products using a directed evolution strategy. A minimal media including the target carbon source of interest, creates selective pressure for microorganisms capable of degradation. Extremely slow growth rates on these alternative carbon sources is nevertheless measureable using automated image capture and processing pipeline allows one to observe very small changes in cell growth over the course of a very long period of time, thereby identifying microorganisms that could not otherwise be identified.

  • Publication number: 20130346218
    Abstract: Various embodiments pertain to techniques for utilizing confidence indicators to adjust bidding values used to obtain impression opportunities. In various embodiments, a system clusters a plurality of ad impression opportunities according to received information regarding each of the ad impression opportunities. Information about the clusters, referred to as data spots, is calculated and utilized to classify the data spots into one or more categories. Bidding strategies are assigned to each category. When the system receives an ad impression opportunity from an impression provider, the system identifies a data spot to which the received ad impression opportunity corresponds and determines a bid for the ad impression opportunity according to the bidding strategy assigned to the category into which the identified data spot is classified.
