    Abstract: An aerial vehicle is configured to operate within indoor spaces. The aerial vehicle is programmed with positions of waypoints within three-dimensional space, and to calculate a trajectory for traveling through such waypoints in a manner that minimizes snap of the aerial vehicle. Where a distance between a pair of the waypoints is sufficiently long, the aerial vehicle inserts intervening waypoints for planning purposes, and programs the aerial vehicle to travel at a maximum speed between the intervening waypoints. Upon detecting an obstacle with a first range using one or more sensors, the aerial vehicle reduces its speed and monitors a second, shorter range using the sensors, and compensates for motion between such readings.

    Abstract: System and methods are provided for detecting, tracking, and managing outages of transaction processors. An indication is received indicating a potential outage associated with a transaction processor computer configured to process transactions of an online retail website. The indication can be received from a threshold monitoring service and/or from a machine-learning detection system. A computing service can be initiated to confirm and track the outage over time. An outage may include a number of situations in which the transaction processor fails to process transactions according to a set of predefined processing parameters. If the outage spans a particular time period, the service can perform a number of remedial actions (e.g., notifying an administrator of the outage, etc.).
