Described is a digitized mail control system. The system may include a server having a memory storing mail data associated with a user and a user computing device coupled to the server. The server may be programmed to receive an access signal from the user computing device that has accessed the system. In response to receiving the access signal, the server may process the user data and locate the stored mail data associated with the user data. The server may then create and send for execution on the user computing device instruction to display mail data including sender information and action buttons associated with predetermined actions to take in response to the sender information. The server may receive a signal including a selected action associated with a selected action button with regard to a selected sender and automatically execute program code corresponding to the selected action.

The invention relates to a controller unit and a method, which when executed by a computer arrangement in a production line ensures validity of a product and/or product related information. The method comprises: identifying the product; printing at least a selected portion of a current block of a publicly available blockchain, said block comprising time-dependent data, which can only be determined at the time of the creation of the block on the product and product related data at production time; and storing the time-dependent data along with the unique identification for validation of the product and/or the product related information.

A transparent substrate that encodes data therein having optically readable identification indicia corresponding to identifying information regarding the substrate. The optically readable identification indicia may be readable from the transparent substrate by altering the reflectivity of the transparent substrate in indicia portions that may be read by a scanner or reader (e.g., a barcode reader). The optically readable identification indicia may be provided on a common surface with a data zone in which data is encoded in the transparent substrate. Alternatively or additionally, the optically readable identification indicia may be provided on another, different surface than the surface on which the data is encoded in a data zone.

System and methods for processing audio signals are disclosed. In one implementation, a system may include a wearable apparatus including an image sensor to capture images from an environment of a user; an audio sensor to capture an audio signal from the environment of the user; and at least one processor. The processor may be programmed to receive the audio signal captured by the audio sensor; identify at least one segment including speech in the audio signal; receive an image including a representation of a code; analyze the code to determine whether the code is associated with the user and/or the wearable apparatus; and after determining that the code is associated with the user and/or the wearable apparatus, transmit at least one segment of the audio signal, at least one image of the plurality of images, and/or other information to a computing platform.

Disclosed are various approaches for providing touchless visitor management. A visitor can complete a visitor registration process using a client device of the visitor and obtain a virtual badge credential to a visitor's device. A physical access control system credential as well as a visitor badge can also be obtained to the visitor's device.

A measurement accessory device connectable to a measurement apparatus or to a device under test wherein the measurement accessory device comprises means for providing characteristic data of said measurement accessory device in machine readable form used by said measurement apparatus during measurement of said device under test.

A personal food inventory system (PFIS) allows for storage of food items in a personal inventory associated with a user account, as well as tracking of food items consumed by the user account. The PFIS is linked to an application for communicating between an account user and the PFIS items that are received into the personal inventory and items consumed or otherwise removed from the personal inventory. The PFIS is linked to one or more preferred vendors for easy entry of items into the personal inventory. The PFIS also provides recommendation of dishes the account user can prepare based on the personal food inventory and/or a vendor inventory associated with the preferred vendor. The PFIS further provides user notifications for items nearing their expiry date. The PFIS also provides notification to the account user regarding usage of the personal food inventory system by tracking consumption.

Examples of systems and methods for a wearable system to automatically select or filter available user interface interactions or virtual objects are disclosed. The wearable system can select a group of virtual objects for user interaction based on contextual information associated with the user, the user's environment, physical or virtual objects in the user's environment, or the user's physiological or psychological state.

Disclosed are various embodiments of a multi-scale fiducial. A multi-scale fiducial may have three or more scales, where the child fiducials are nested or otherwise linked by a relative position to the parent fiducials. Multi-scale fiducials may facilitate target identification and tracking at varying distances, potentially without the aid of a scale-invariant recognition algorithm. One application of multi-scale fiducials may involve target identification for autonomously controlled aerial vehicles.

A worker management device that manages a worker wearing workwear includes: a main body; a light receiver that is provided on a part of the main body that is exposed when the main body is attached to the workwear, and receives light including predetermined identification information; a controller connected to the light receiver; and a communication unit connected to the controller.
