摘要： A distributed intelligence lighting system is comprised of a global controller, one or more local controllers, wall stations, sensors and lighting fixtures. In one aspect, the lighting system provides schedule-based, occupancy-based, and/or daylight-responsive automated control and multi-level or ON/OFF manual control of lighting loads. System components communicate over a topology-free and polarity-free modular low voltage digital network that combines power and control wiring in an easily installed labeled and keyed cable. Embodiments according to the system do not require any components to be addressed, manually configured, or programmed (beyond setting the project location and current time and date) for energy code compliance. Manual and after-hours override control is accomplished via local low voltage wall stations or occupancy sensors. Global controllers generally each incorporate an onboard modem and user interface with LCD display, both permitting programming of advanced features, override, system monitoring, and diagnostics.

摘要： A system includes an image repository that maintains a plurality of images submitted by submitting users. Upon submitting an image, the submitting user may specify one or more communicative actions to be launched in the event that a searching user presents the same image to the repository. The presented image is searched against every image in the repository using image matching technology. If a match is found—that is, if the presented image is substantially the same as an image previously submitted and stored in the repository (i.e., the same image or a photograph thereof)—then one or more communicative actions, previously defined by the submitting user and associated with the stored image, are launched towards the searching user. A submitting-user-defined communicative action may include any action that communicates information to the searching user, such as sending the searching user a predefined email or text message, playing a predefined media file, displaying information stored in a profile of the submitting user, etc.

摘要： In accordance with the teachings described herein, systems and methods are provided for configuring signaling radio bearer information in a user equipment protocol stack. A wireless network may be used that includes a radio access network for transmitting information between a user equipment device and a core network. An instruction may be received to generate a signaling radio bearer configuration information element (IE) that includes configuration information for a pre-selected number of signaling radio bearers. The signaling radio bearer configuration IE may then be generated, while ensuring that the signaling radio bearer configuration IE includes configuration information for a required minimum number of signaling radio bearers. The signaling radio bearer configuration information element may be transmitted from the radio access network to the user equipment device for use in configuring the signaling radio bearers in the user equipment device.
