Abstract

Incoming sensor data from a data collection device may be received at the data processing platform that includes the plurality of data processing microservices. A data processing microservice of the data processing platform may detect that the incoming sensor data from the data collection device caused an error. As a result, the incoming sensor data may be queued in a faulty data cache of the data processing platform. Subsequently, at least one of the data processing microservice or the incoming sensor data stored in the faulty data cache may be modified such that the incoming sensor data is processed by the data processing microservice without the error. Following the processing, the incoming sensor data may be deleted from the faulty data queue of the data processing platform.

Abstract

A subscriber device may perform a key exchange with a network operation center (NOC) computing device to receive a secret key. A list of group identifiers of personal devices for which the subscriber device is to handle events may be received at the subscriber device. The subscriber device may receive an encrypted event packet from a personal device via a direct communication connection. The subscriber device may decrypt the encrypted event packet at the subscriber device using the secret key to generate a decrypted event packet and extract a group identifier from the decrypted event packet. In response to determining that the group identifier is included in the list of group identifiers received from the NOC computing device, an event handler of a plurality of handlers stored in the subscriber device that corresponds to an event included in the decrypted event packet may be identified to handle the event.

Abstract

A data model computing device receives a first data model with a first set of attributes, a first margin of error, a first set of predictions, and an underlying data set. Subsequently, the data model computing device receives a second data model with a second set of attributes, as the test data for a machine learning module. Based on the first and second data model, the machine learning function generates a second set of predictions and a second margin of error. The data model computing device performs a statistical analysis on the first and second set of predictions and the first and second margin of error to determine if the second set of predictions converge with the first set of predictions and second margin of error is narrower than the first margin of error, to determine if the second data model improves the prediction results of the machine learning module.

Abstract

An electronic device includes an M.2 connector, a protection circuit, and a processor. The processor is configured to determine whether a module inserted into the M.2 connector is a 4G module or a 5G module. In response to that the processor determines the inserted module is the 4G module, the processor causes the protection circuit to execute a protection process. In response to that the processor determines the inserted module is the 5G module, the processor causes the protection circuit not to execute the protection process. In the protection process, the protection circuit blocks an electrical connection between a first pin of the M.2 connector and a first power supply and blocks an electrical connection between a second pin of the M.2 connector and a reset signal. A method for making two communication modules be compatible in a single M.2 connector and a computer-implemented method thereof are also provided.

Abstract

A memory management method for continuously recording digital content and a circuit system operating the method are provided. The circuit system includes a control circuit, a memory, and a storage device. The memory has a buffer that is defined as a pre-buffer or a main buffer based on a current recording mode. In the method, the circuit system loads continuously-received data and sequentially saves the data in the buffer that is defined as the pre-buffer in a first-in-first-out manner before a start-record instruction is received. After the start-record instruction is received, the data buffered in the pre-buffer is combined with the data that is continuously recorded to the main buffer. This file is then written to the storage device until a stop-record instruction is received.

This disclosure describes techniques for capturing still images during video streaming to identify patterns in a region-of-interest on the captured still images. The video streaming may be performed by an imaging device that includes or is communicatively connected to one or more sensors (e.g., radar, light sensor, etc.) The one or more sensors may be configured to perform data measurements such as vehicle speed measurements, light intensity measurements, and/or the like. In one example, during the video streaming, the data measurement may be compared with a corresponding threshold. In this example, the imaging device may be triggered to capture still images of the surrounding area based on the comparison between the data measurement and the corresponding threshold. Thereafter, the still images may be processed to identify the region-of-interest on the still images.

Abstract

Incoming sensor data from a data collection device may be received at the data processing platform that includes the plurality of data processing microservices. A data processing microservice of the data processing platform may detect that the incoming sensor data from the data collection device caused an error. As a result, the incoming sensor data may be queued in a faulty data cache of the data processing platform. Subsequently, at least one of the data processing microservice or the incoming sensor data stored in the faulty data cache may be modified such that the incoming sensor data is processed by the data processing microservice without the error. Following the processing, the incoming sensor data may be deleted from the faulty data queue of the data processing platform.

Abstract

A scanning method for multiple barcodes is applied in an electronic device. The electronic device loads a tag template, and the tag template has a plurality of detection zones each corresponding to a target barcode and a target barcode type. The electronic device captures a tag image with a plurality of barcode patterns to be detected, and each barcode pattern to be detected has coordinate information on an image coordinate system. The electronic device overlays the tag image with the tag template to determine whether each barcode pattern to be detected is located in one of the detection zones. When the barcode pattern to be detected is located in one of the detection zones and matches the corresponding target barcode type, the electronic device reads the barcode pattern to be detected to obtain a read result.

Abstract

A communication broker service of a microservices platform may direct a distributed queue management service to monitor multiple data distribution outboxes of a plurality of microservices of the microservices platform for message data. The communication broker service may receive an indication from the distributed queue management service that the distributed queue management service has retrieved message data from a data distribution outbox of a first microservice. The communication broker service may apply a business logic to identify one or more second microservices that are configured to receive the message data from the first microservice. The communication broker server may then direct the distributed queue management service to distribute the message data of the first microservice from a data store of the distributed queue management service to one or more corresponding data distribution inboxes of the one or more second microservices.
