Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing site survey, and, more particularly, to methods, systems, and apparatuses for implementing drone-based radio frequency (“rf”) site survey. In various embodiments, a computing system might receive at least one of a first signal from a first rf sensor or a second signal from a second rf sensor, in response to corresponding at least one of the first rf sensor receiving the first signal within a first operating frequency range or the second rf sensor receiving the second signal within a second operating frequency range as the drone travels through a geographical area; might analyze the received at least one of the first signal or the second signal to identify a frequency range of detected radio signals within the geographical area; and send, to a user device of a user, the identified frequency range of detected radio signals within the geographical area.

Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing intelligence enabled things (“IET”). In various embodiments, a first IET tag affixed to a first object among a plurality of objects might receive information regarding the first object and/or nearby objects. The first IET tag might determine a status of the first object and/or the nearby objects based at least partly on the received information and based at least partly on first data assigned to the first IET tag. The first IET tag might analyze the determined status to determine whether the determined status exceeds predetermined thresholds for normal parameters for the first object and/or the nearby objects. Based on a determination that the determined status exceeds predetermined thresholds for normal parameters for the first object and/or the nearby objects, the first IET tag might autonomously self-report to a computing system a state of the first object and/or the nearby objects.

Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing data transmission, and, more particularly, to methods, systems, and apparatuses for implementing data transmission utilizing techniques used for transient state computing with optics. In various embodiments, a photo-transmitter system of a chromatic transient state data transmission system might send, over optical transmission media, a data signal comprising a series of chromabit values, by emitting, using a set of colored light emitters, a combination of colors representing each chromabit value. A photo-receiver system of the chromatic transient state data transmission system that is communicatively coupled to the photo-transmitter system via the optical transmission media might receive the data signal, each distinguishable color as detected by each photoreceptor corresponding to a combination of emitted colors. A computing system might autonomously convert the data signal comprising the series of chromabit values into a converted data signal that is compatible with a receiving device.

Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing computing, and, more particularly, to methods, systems, and apparatuses for implementing transient state computing with optics. In various embodiments, a chromatic transient state computing system might receive one or more input values and might assign a “chromabit value” to each of the one or more input values. The chromatic transient state computing system might include a plurality of sets of colored light emitting diodes (“LEDs”) and a corresponding set of photoreceptors. Each distinguishable color as detected by one of the photoreceptors might correspond to a combination of colors emitted by a set of colored LEDs, each distinguishable color representing a chromabit value. The chromatic transient state computing system might perform a computing operation using the assigned chromabit values each corresponding to each of the one or more input values, and might output one or more output values resulting from the computing operation.

Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing home health monitoring of patients via extension of healthcare system network into customer premises. In various embodiments, a computing system might receive, wirelessly from a data collector assigned to a patient, collected patient data obtained by a patient device(s) associated with the patient. The computing system and/or a management console might establish a network transport link between the computing system and a healthcare data system that is accessible by a healthcare provider(s), and might send the patient data over the network transport link to the healthcare data system. The management console might store the patient data in a portion of the healthcare data system that is allocated to information regarding the patient, wherein the network transport link is configured as a one-way link that prevents access to any data stored in the healthcare data system via the one-way link.

Abstract: Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing data storage and/or retrieval, and, more particularly, for implementing data associations. In various embodiments, an associations rules engine might query data aggregation data services to determine whether a first data object (which along with a first relationship rule that indicates a one-to-one relationship between the first data object and a corresponding second data object) is associated with one or more third data objects; might abstract the first data object, the first relationship rule, and the one or more third data objects; might update, in a metadata catalog, a catalog entry corresponding to the first data object with one or more associations among various data objects; and might provide a requesting computing system with access to the catalog entry corresponding to the first data object, the computing system performing one or more computational tasks using the associations stored in the catalog entry.
