  • Patent number: 12244782
    Abstract: Augmented reality systems provide graphics over views from a mobile device for both in-venue and remote viewing of a sporting or other event. A server system can provide a transformation between the coordinate system of a mobile device (mobile phone, tablet computer, head mounted display) and a real world coordinate system. Requested graphics for the event are displayed over a view of an event. In a tabletop presentation, video of the event can be displayed with augmented reality graphics overlays at a remote location.

  • Patent number: 12184811
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to providing in-person audio access for remote users. A remote access audio system can detect in-person audio through an array of microphones installed at a site. The remote access audio system can process the in-person audio using speech recognition techniques to determine that an in-person conversation is occurring. The remote access audio system can apply a model to the in-person conversation to determine whether the conversation is relevant to a remote user and transmit an option for the remote user to remotely join or be added to the conversation.

  • Patent number: 12177319
    Abstract: Implementations selectively message member account data to client applications to reduce server load. When a monitored load on cloud servers meets a criteria, a hold status may be triggered. During the hold status, member accounts may be monitored and client applications may be transmitted push messages, for example when a change is detected in a member's monitored account. The push messages can contain the detected changes, such as a posted transaction that triggered the message. Implementations of the client application can be configured to display local data (stored from the push messages) during the hold status in response to a member's request to access/view their account. Because server to client communication is limited to messages that contain member account changes, an overall server load can be reduced.

  • Patent number: 12093932
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to techniques to simulate conditions while progressing towards a goal state using token conversions. Tokens can be assets associated with a defined goal and can be implemented to segment accounts for a defined purpose and to improve user planning. An account can be segmented by converting a portion of the user's account balance to tokens to progress towards the goal. In some implementations, a simulation can generate a target token conversion schedule that achieves a target number of tokens at a target date. However, user behavior can change the observed token amounts and cause deviations from the schedule. The simulations can alter the token conversion schedule and arrive at a new target date for the target number of tokens. In some implementations, automated agents and machine learning components can be used to implement the token tracking and simulations.

  • Publication number: 20240032465
    Abstract: A sickle header has right and left cutter bar assemblies each having a knife assembly configured to move in a reciprocating motion. A first transfer plate connects the knife assembly of the right cutter bar assembly and a second transfer plate connects the knife assembly of the left cutter bar assembly. A center sickle drive assembly includes first and second epicyclic drives connected to the right cutter bar assembly translate rotational movement of a drive motor gear into linear oscillating motion of output cranks that are connected to the first transfer plate. Third and fourth epicyclic drives connected to the left cutter bar assembly translate rotational movement of the drive motor gear into linear oscillating motion of output cranks that are connected to the second transfer plate, such that the cranks of the epicyclic drives simultaneously drive the knife assembly of the respective cutter bar assembly in a reciprocating motion.

  • Publication number: 20230311274
    Abstract: An abrasive disc sheet article having patterns of vitrified abrasive particle agglomerate molded islands attached in annular bands on a flexible disc backing is used for high-speed water-spray cooled abrading and polishing without hydroplaning of workpieces. Hydroplaning is prevented as excess coolant water flows around the islands instead of forming a thick water film that separates the island abrasive and the workpiece. Vitrification encapsulates individual abrasive particles in glass to strongly support them to resist abrading forces and to allow them to be progressively worn down for full utilization of expensive diamond particles. Slow eroding of the agglomerates also results in very long abrade life of the abrasive discs. A porous filler material attached to the disc backing between the island structures carries water to contact the wafer surface and cool it during abrading. Interchangeable discs having different abrasive particle sizes are quickly attached with vacuum to flat rotatable platens.

  • Patent number: 11691241
    Abstract: Embodiments of a high-speed rotatable workpiece abrasive polishing head are disclosed that allow flat surfaced hard material workpieces or sapphire or semiconductor wafers to be polished at high abrading speeds that can use water-mist cooled quick-change fixed abrasive island-type discs. Workpieces can be quickly attached with vacuum to a rotatable workpiece plate having a curved (e.g., spherical) bearing with an offset spherical center of rotation located at the workpiece abraded surface. Abrading contact there prevents lateral abrading friction forces from tilting workpieces and causing non-flat workpiece surfaces. The workpiece carrier plate can be rotationally driven by a floating drive shaft having a spherical spline head that contacts the workpiece carrier plate at a position close to the workpiece abraded surface to avoid tilting of the workpiece due to the shaft-applied workpiece rotation forces.
