CPC Class H04N

Risk of damage that is caused by the breaking of a circuit may be mitigated. A smart home controller and/or insurance provider remote processor may analyze data, with an insured's permission, received from a smart device disposed on, within, or proximate to a property associated with monitoring the flow of electricity. If it is determined that risk of damage due to the flow of electricity being cut off repeatedly exists, the smart home controller or remote processor may automatically generate a repair request to schedule a repair event that mitigates the risks. The smart home controller may transmit information about the risks to a homeowner and/or an insurance provider. The insurance provider remote processor may interpret the transmitted data and perform insurance activities, such as providing a discount or premium, and/or adjusting an insurance policy associated with the property based upon the insured property being equipped with risk mitigation functionality.

A method for validating the physical parameters of a check to approve or deny the deposit transaction comprising the steps of scanning a physical check with a scanner, comparing the digital scan of the check against preset digital parameters by a field comparator to insure that the digital scan of the check meets predetermined physical check parameters and check fields and preparing a written rejection/acceptance to the check submitted in the form of a deposit receipt.

In accordance with some implementations, a method for measuring viewership of media content is disclosed. The method is performed on a client system. The client system captures presence data of one or more users of the client system with the camera. The client system then analyzes the captured presence data to determine if a respective user is a participant in a media viewership study. In accordance with a determination that the user is a participant in the media viewership measurement study, the client system determines the media content being presented. The client system creates viewership data based on the user and the media content being displayed in the proximity of the user and transmits viewership data to a server system.

The present disclosure discloses a machine condition monitoring system using three-dimensional thermography, which may automatically alert an operation when detecting any anomalies in three-dimensional thermal imaging of a machine. The machine condition monitoring system is for monitoring conditions of a machine and recording three-dimensional thermal imaging of the machine, comprising: a pan-tilt-zoom thermal imaging camera, at least one infrared reflective convex mirror, and a computer server.
