    摘要: Discussed is a cosmetic dispenser including a communication unit, a control unit for acquiring at least one of user information and environment information through the communication unit and acquiring a cosmetic dispensing method based on at least one of the user information and the environment information, and a cosmetic dispensing unit having a plurality of cartridges for containing cosmetics and a discharge unit for discharging the cosmetics contained in the plurality of cartridges. The control unit receives input information in which an amount of cosmetics to be provided is selected by a duration of use, and the cosmetic dispensing unit dispenses each of the cosmetics contained in the plurality of cartridges in an amount corresponding to the duration of use selected according to the input information. The cosmetic dispensing unit supplies an amount of cosmetics to be used by user during the duration of use.

    摘要: A system includes a plurality of first building components, a private local blockchain, a second building component, and a client device. The private local blockchain includes a device ledger indicating each first building component, a transaction ledger maintaining a plurality of blocks corresponding to a transaction between at least two first building components and including at least one first unique identifier of the corresponding first building component and a timestamp of the transaction, a transaction processor that generates at least one block by executing a predetermined hash function using a previous block, and a local rule engine defining rules to evaluate a transaction. The second building component has at least one second unique identifier. The client device provides the at least one second unique identifier to the private local blockchain. The private local blockchain determines whether to add the second building component to the device ledger.

    摘要: A registration device includes a reader, a specification unit, a determination unit, a setting unit and a call registration unit. The specification unit specifies a plurality of candidate floors on the basis of a two-dimensional barcode. In a case where it is determined by the determination unit that a candidate floor that matches an installation floor is included, the setting unit sets the candidate floor as a departure floor and sets another candidate floor included in the plurality of candidate floors as a destination floor. The call registration unit registers a call for a car on the basis of the departure floor and the destination floor set by the setting unit.

    摘要: A network-controlled dispensing device is provided. The dispensing device may include a display, a scannable device identifier (e.g., QR code, RFID tag, etc.) that uniquely identifies the dispensing device to a scanning device, and a network device to establish communications with a server based, at least in part, on the scannable device identifier. The dispenser includes a controller to control dispensing of a product based on one or more product selections received from the server. The controller generates a dispense code in response to receiving one or more product selections from the server and presents the dispense code on the display. If the code received from the server matches the dispense code, the controller dispenses a product based on the one or more product selections received from the server.

    摘要: In a method, an electronic device obtains to-be-encoded text, where the to-be-encoded text includes N characters; the electronic device determines a target coding mode for each of the N characters from X optional coding modes; the electronic device groups the N characters into M character fields based on the target coding mode for each character, and determines a target coding mode for each of the M character fields, where M is less than or equal to N; the electronic device encodes the M character fields based on the target coding mode for each character field to obtain a first binary character string; and the electronic device generates, based on the first binary character string, a two-dimensional code of a version corresponding to a length of the first binary character string.

    摘要: Apparatus and methods for testing a scannability of a QR code within multiple scenarios is provided. Methods may include generating the QR code and creating a background-scene for being applied to the QR code. Methods may include creating a composite image by combining the QR code with the background-scene. Methods may further include generating multiple versions of the composite image to mimic the composite image within the multiple scenarios. The multiple scenarios may include one or more environments the QR code may be positioned within. The multiple scenarios may include one or more perspectives the QR code may be scanned from. Methods may further include simulating scanning each of the multiple versions to determine a level of success of the scanning of each of the multiple versions.
