The invention generally relates to a sample dispenser including an internal standard and methods of use thereof.

Sample dispenser including an internal standard and methods of use thereof

A non-transitory computer-readable medium encoded with a computer-readable program which, when executed by a processor, will cause a computer to execute a method of authenticating a 3-D object with a 2-D camera, the method including building a pre-determined database. The method additionally includes registering the 3-D object to a storage unit of a device comprising the 2-D camera, thereby creating a registered 3-D model of the 3-D object. Additionally, the method includes authenticating a test 3-D object by comparing the test 3-D object to the registered 3-D model.

System architecture and method of authenticating a 3-D object

A method includes identifying a plurality of local tracklets from a plurality of targets, creating a plurality of global tracklets from the plurality of local tracklets, wherein each global tracklet comprises a set of local tracklet of the plurality of local tracklets, wherein the set of local tracklet corresponds to a target of the plurality of targets; extracting motion features of the target from the each global tracklet of the plurality of global tracklets, wherein the motion features of each target of the plurality of targets from each global tracklet of the plurality of global tracklets are distinguishable from the motion features of remaining targets of the plurality of targets from remaining global tracklets; transforming the motion features into an address code by using a hashing process; and transmitting a plurality of address codes and a transformation parameter of the hashing process to a communication device.

Communication system architecture and method of processing data therein

A method of selectively broadcasting a message to a client by a server without knowing the client's internet protocol (IP) address includes performing target recognition and tracking on one or more targets, including position of the one or more targets, extracting target-specific context parameters from the one or more recognized and tracked targets, encoding the target-specific context parameters into a header, thereby generating a context address for the one or more targets, appending the context address to a message for the one or more targets from a predetermined set of messages based on the position of the one or more targets, thereby generating one or more packets of information, and broadcasting the one or more packets wirelessly to one or more client mobile devices each associated with the one or more targets.

Method of communicating between a client-server system and remote clients

A non-transitory computer-readable medium encoded with a computer-readable program which, when executed by a first processor, will cause a computer to execute a method of authenticating a user, the method including training a plurality of models. The method additionally includes sending, by a computer, an acoustic signal. Further, the method includes receiving, by the computer, a reflected acoustic signal, wherein the reflected acoustic signal comprises information about a signature. Moreover, the method includes receiving, by the computer, motion data about the information about the signature. The method additionally includes comparing the information about the signature to a model to generate a score. Additionally, the method includes deciding, based on the score, if the information about the signature is within a predetermined tolerance level.

System architecture and method of authenticating a user

A method of selectively broadcasting a message to a client by a server without knowing the client's internet protocol (IP) address includes receiving video feeds of an area of interest from one or more cameras, performing target recognition and tracking on one or more targets, including position of the one or more targets, extracting target-specific context parameters from the one or more recognized and tracked targets, encoding the target-specific context parameters into a header, thereby generating a context address for the one or more targets, appending the context address to a message for the one or more targets from a predetermined set of messages based on the position of the one or more targets, thereby generating one or more packets of information, and broadcasting the one or more packets wirelessly to one or more client mobile devices each associated with the one or more targets.

Ion generation using modified wetted porous materials

The invention generally relates to a sample dispenser including an internal standard and methods of use thereof. In certain embodiments, the invention provides a fluid dispenser that includes a fluid chamber. A portion of an inner wall of the chamber includes an internal standard. The chamber is configured such that fluid introduced to the chamber must interact with the portion of the chamber wall that includes the internal standard prior to flowing through an outlet of the chamber. The dispenser additionally includes a member coupled to the chamber such that it can control movement of fluid within the chamber.

A method of sequentially performing a plurality of jointing operations includes positioning an automated device to form a mechanical joint into a workpiece and forming a mechanical joint into the workpiece. Once the mechanical joint is formed, the workpiece is scanned to generate data indicating the surface geometry of the workpiece at a location including the mechanical joint. One or more geometric features of the surface geometry are identified, and if the identified geometric features are within respective predetermined specification thresholds, the automated device is repositioned to form a subsequent mechanical joint into the workpiece.

Process and apparatus for inspecting a high volume material jointing operation

The invention generally relates to systems and methods for mass spectrometry analysis of samples. In certain embodiments, the invention provides a mass spectrometry probe including at least one porous material connected to a high voltage source, in which the porous material is discrete from a flow of solvent.
