Abstract: A system described herein may provide a technique for using modeling techniques to identify events, trends, etc. in a set of data, such as streaming video or audio content. The system may perform lightweight pre-processing operations on a different set of data, such as object position data, to identify timeframes at which an event may potentially have occurred, and the modeling techniques may be performed at portions of the streaming content that correspond to such timeframes. The system may forgo performing such modeling techniques at other portions of the streaming content, thus conserving processing resources.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for dissolving metals by photocatalysis. A metal-containing material to be dissolved is dispersed in a mixed solution of photocatalyst-containing cyanide and organic chloride; then, a photocatalyst is added; next, an oxygen-containing gas or a substance which is capable of generating oxygen is introduced; and irradiation is applied for a period of time to dissolve metals. Compared with the prior method, the present invention is advantageous in moderate reaction condition, energy conservation, environmental protection, low cost, and convenient operation, and is suitable for mass industrial treatment on metal dissolution.

Abstract: Devices and methods for using separate advertisement streams in a single beacon device are disclosed herein. An example beacon device includes at least one processor, a radio transceiver, and a memory. The memory may store instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the beacon device to receive a set of beacon information captured during a scan period. The instructions may further cause the beacon device to transmit a captured beacon stream (CBS) that includes beacon information from the set of beacon information. The instructions may further cause the beacon device to transmit, to a mobile device, a waypoint beacon stream (WBS) including a protocol data unit (PDU) data payload. The PDU data payload may encode a media access control (MAC) identifier adjacent to a type field indicative of a format for heartbeat data encoded in the PDU data payload.

Abstract: A wireless communication device may determine that a channel is to be used to transmit an advertisement. The wireless communication device may determine a channel-specific gain associated with transmitting the advertisement via the channel. The wireless communication device may generate the advertisement to include information identifying a channel identifier of the channel and the channel-specific gain. The wireless communication device may transmit the advertisement for locationing based on a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) of the advertisement.
