Granted: 2022-12-08
Abstract: A method comprising: 
a computer system receiving image data of a field comprising a plurality of pixels, 
precipitation data for the plurality of pixels of the image data of the field indicating one or 
more amounts of rainfall over one or more regions of the field, elevation data indicating one 
or more elevations over the one or more regions of the field, and soil property data indicating 
one or more properties of soil found across the one or more regions of the field; 
the computer system running a flow simulation over the plurality of pixels of the 
image data of the field by: 
initializing a water level for each region of a plurality of regions of the field; 
iteratively rebalancing water levels between the plurality of regions; 
wherein at each iteration water flows from higher elevation regions to 
neighboring lower elevation regions based on the elevation data until a stopping 
condition occurs; 
wherein the stopping condition occurs when less than a threshold amount of 
water has shifted from the higher elevation regions to the neighboring lower elevation 
regions during a previous iteration; 
wherein as water flows from the higher elevation regions to the neighboring 
lower elevation regions an amount of water is removed by being absorbed by soil 
based on the soil property data; 
after iteratively rebalancing the water levels between the plurality of regions of the 
field, identifying, using regions of the plurality of regions which still contain water, a set of 
pixels within the image data that are likely to have ponding water after the rainfall.

Title: Systems and methods for utilizing rfid technology to facilitate a gaming system
Inventor: MOORE CAROLYN
IPC: G06F17/00
Filed: 2021-09-15
Granted: 2022-09-29
Abstract: In accordance with some embodiments, an RFID-enabled table game system provides for 
determining whether there is a variance between an expected balance of inventory and an actual 
balance of inventory in a game element container. If a variance is detected, the RFID-enabled 
game system may identify at least one characteristic associated with an RFID-enabled game 
element that is determined to be a source of the variance (e.g., a player position at which the 
RFID-enabled game element had last been detected, a denomination or value of the game 
element, and/or an identifier associated with the game element). In some embodiments, an alert 
may be output to game provider personnel (e.g., a dealer of a card game) at the end of a game 
play when such a variance is detected, thus allowing the variance to be corrected in an efficient 
and timely manner.

Abstract: Implementations set forth herein relate to effectuating device arbitration in a multi-device environment using data available from a wearable computing device, such as computerized glasses. The computerized glasses can include a camera, which can be used to provide image data for resolving issues related to device arbitration. In some implementations, a direction that a user is directing their computerized glasses, and/or directing their gaze (as detected by the computerized glasses with prior permission from the user), can be used to prioritize a particular device in a multi-device environment. A detected orientation of the computerized glasses can also be used to determine how to simultaneously allocate content between a graphical display of the computerized glasses and another graphical display of another client device. When content is allocated to the computerized glasses, content-specific gestures can be enabled and actionable at the computerized glasses.

Abstract: A mold apparatus and method is used to form a solid injection molded plastic part having no internal voids, a Class A finish, a sink-free exterior appearance surface, and unevenly distributed structural detail extending from the opposite surface, the detail including free-standing reinforcement ribs, attachment bosses, and the like. In the method the mold portions (14,16) of the mold apparatus are closed, charges of molten thermoplastic and pressurized gas are sequentially injected into a mold cavity (18) defining the shape of the desired part, and the mold portions are sequentially separated and closed. The pressurized gas forces the hot plastic away from one mold half and against the other mold half, and separation of the mold portions ensures uniform distribution of the pressurized gas behind the hot plastic, which pressure is maintained during cooling. Depending on the application, the plastic completely packs the cavity, fills but does not pack the cavity, and the mating faces can be abutted or maintained partially separated when the mold portions reclosed. A gas seal is formed by the plastic to prevent gas in the mold cavity from reaching the finished exterior surface of the part during shrinkage of the plastic. <IMAGE>
