Abstract: Example aspects include techniques for creating an augmented reality filter on a mobile device. These techniques may include receiving, in response to a selection of a primary augment reality filter template (ARFT), a primary ARFT package corresponding to the primary ARFT, and receiving, in response to the selection of a secondary ARFT, a secondary ARFT package corresponding to the secondary ARFT.

Abstract: A disclosed method may assign, with a DHCP module, two static IP addresses to each of one or more hyper-converged infrastructures nodes. The two static IP addresses may include an out of band IP address for a baseboard management controller (BMC) network interface to an OOB management network and an internal management IP address for a network interface associated with an internal management network. Disclosed methods may then access, for each of the one or more nodes, a BMC at the OOB IP address, to invoke a BMC tool to retrieve cluster configuration information for each node. A dashboard user interface may then be generated, based on the configuration retrieved for each node, and displayed. The cluster configuration information may indicate whether the node is a cluster node, comprising a node assigned to a cluster, or a free node, comprising a node not assigned to a cluster.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for storing and retrieving large amounts of data in a non-relational database using sort keys. A server computer system may receive a request for raw data specifying a start timestamp and an end timestamp. The server determines a start key and an end key for performing a query on a distributed non-relational database storing key-value pairs, where the determining is based on the start timestamp and the end timestamp. The server may compare the start key and the end key to a sort key included in row keys of key-value pairs stored in the non-relational database. Based on the comparing, the server retrieves one or more rows of raw data from the non-relational database. The server generates a graphical representation of the one or more rows of raw data retrieved from the non-relational database. The disclosed techniques may advantageously improve the efficiency of a database management system.

Abstract: An autonomous vehicle includes audio sensors configured to detect audio in an environment around the autonomous vehicle and to generate audio signals based on the detected audio. A processor in the autonomous vehicle receives the audio signals and compares a time domain or frequency domain representation of the audio signals to a corresponding representation of a known emergency vehicle siren. The comparison causes the processor to output a first determination indicating whether the audio signals are indicative of an emergency vehicle siren. The processor also applies a trained neural network to the audio signals that causes the processor to output a second determination indicating whether the audio signals are indicative of the emergency vehicle siren. If the first determination or the second determination indicates presence of an emergency vehicle siren in the environment around the autonomous vehicle, the autonomous vehicle is caused to perform an action.
