Abstract: Embodiments of a targeted surface disinfection system are disclosed. The system includes a set of one or more UV lamps, a high voltage power supply for driving the lamps, a mobile carriage including a chassis supporting the set, an articulated head assembly including at least one UV lamp from the set, a vacuum pump, and a suction hose extending between the vacuum pump and the head assembly for dissipating heat generated by the at least one UV lamp. The system also includes a pulse configuration control unit for configuring an output of the high voltage power supply for driving the set to emit a UV radiant energy upon a target surface requiring disinfection, where the set of one or more UV lamps emits the UV radiant energy at a rate of at least 20 pulses per second.

Abstract: A pulsed UV disinfection system includes a xenon UV lamp mounted in an articulated head assembly and a chassis housing a high voltage power supply for driving the lamp and a pulse configuration control unit for configuring the output of the power supply. The head assembly and the chassis are positioned on a mobile carriage. The pulse configuration control unit is programmed for driving the UV lamp at a rate of between 20 and 50 pulses per second, with each pulse emitting between 30 and 150 joules of UV radiant energy. The system also features remote video imaging of a target area, remote control of the carriage and head assembly as well as a remote emergency shutdown.

Abstract: A user device receives a mobile application that defines multiple environments associated with the mobile application and launches the mobile application. After the launching the mobile application, the user device retrieves an environment selector value for the mobile application and initializes the mobile application with configuration data for a particular environment of the multiple environments. The particular environment is selected from the multiple environments based on the environment selector value.

Abstract: Exemplary systems and methods for user polling are disclosed. An exemplary method includes a service provider subsystem receiving, from a poll provider subsystem, data representative of a poll comprising at least one poll question, transmitting the poll in a first data format to a plurality of translators for translation and distribution to a plurality of access devices associated with a plurality of users and with a plurality of distinct, heterogeneous media platforms, receiving from the plurality of translators, data representative of one or more responses to the at least one poll question provided by one or more of the plurality of access devices, aggregating the data representative of the one or more responses, generating poll results based on the one or more responses, and transmitting data representative of the poll results to the poll provider subsystem and/or the plurality of access devices. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method performed by a network device may include determining a transmission bit rate associated with a content, determining a bit rate of a network, determining a number of data streams to be transmitted through the network based on the determined bit rate, where a combined bit rate of the number of data streams is equal to or greater than the determined transmission bit rate, receiving the number of data streams transmitted through the network and reassembling the number of data streams to provide a single data stream of the content.
