A method in a controller of a mining vehicle entails detecting a remote object, determining a distance between the mining vehicle and the remote object and determining that the remote object is not in a direct line of sight with respect to the mining vehicle. The method entails adjusting the determined distance using a compensation factor, thereby obtaining a compensated distance between the mining vehicle and the remote object. The method entails performing a collision avoidance action based on the compensated distance between the mining vehicle and the remote object.

Techniques are provided for orphan object detection, invalid sequence number detection, and asynchronous object cleanup. A storage system may store data within one or more tiers of storage, such as a storage tier (e.g., solid state storage and disks maintained by the storage system), a remote object store (e.g., storage provided by a third party storage provider), and / or other storage tiers. Orphan objects, within the remote object store, that are no longer used by the storage system may be detected and / or deleted. When an aggregate of volumes is deleted, corresponding objects, within the remote object store, may be identified and / or deleted. Invalid sequence numbers (e.g., lost or corrupt sequence numbers locally maintained in a metafile) assigned to objects within the remote object store may be identified, deleted, and / or fixed.

Techniques are provided for caching data during an on-demand restore using a cloud block map. A client may be provided with access to an on-demand volume during a restore process that copies backup data from a snapshot within a remote object store to the on-demand volume stored within local storage. In response to receiving a request from the client for a block of the backup data not yet restored from the snapshot to the on-demand volume, the block may be retrieved from the snapshot in the remote object store. The block may be cached within a cloud block map stored within the local storage as a cached block. The client may be provided with access to the cached block.

Various systems and processes may be used to achieve measurement of remote objects. In particular implementations, systems and processes for remote object measurement may include the ability to capture a digital image of an object to be measured and electronically sense the distance to the object to be measured. The systems and processes may also include the ability to electronically determine a size of the measured object and transmit the location, image, and determined size of the object to a remote server system.

Techniques are provided for restoring a directory from a snapshot of a volume backed up to an object store. The snapshot may be backed up from a node to the object store, such as a cloud computing environment. A user may want to restore the directory within the volume without having to restore the entire volume, which otherwise would waste computing resources, storage, network bandwidth, and time. Accordingly, the techniques provided herein are capable of restoring just the directory from the snapshot that is stored within the object store. Because snapshot data of the snapshot may be stored across multiple objects within the object store, certain objects are identified as comprising snapshot data (backup data) of the directory and content items within the directory. In this way, the snapshot data of the directory is restored from these objects to a restore directory at a restore target.

The application provides a cold and hot data management method and device, electronic equipment and storage medium. The method comprises the following steps: receiving a cold data migration strategy configured by a user; migrating target data in a local database to a remote object storage according to the cold data migration strategy; when a hot request for the migrated data is received, restoring the migrated data from the remote object storage to a temporary data container; verifying the integrity of the data in the temporary data container; after the verification is passed, switching the access to the migrated data in the local database from accessing the remote object storage to accessing the data in the temporary data container. Thus, the intermediate state of data inconsistency or service interruption of the production environment during switching is fundamentally eliminated, and the reliability and continuity of the data service are significantly improved.

A system and method for improving aiming at ranged objects in a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game are provided. Initially, a touch gesture is received at a tool selection area in a dynamic image provided by the MOBA game, allowing the user to select a tool (e.g., an ability, virtual weapon, spell, etc.) to aim at an object within the virtual world. Next, a second touch gesture is received at a minimap in the virtual world, which automatically adjusts the dynamic image from an angle corresponding to the user-controlled character to an angle representing the selected location within the minimap. Finally, a third touch gesture is received at the aiming tool, which provides the aiming range of the selected tool within the adjusted dynamic image, allowing the user to aim at objects more precisely and accurately.

In some examples, a database system includes processing modules with access to a remote object store and a local database storage associated with the database system. The processing modules perform a database operation that involves use of a plurality of instances of spool data. The processing modules store a first instance of spool data in the remote object store based on a first characteristic of the first instance of spool data, and the processing modules store a second instance of spool data in the local database storage based on a second characteristic of the second instance of spool data.

A method performed by a radio access network (RAN) node for device authorization in integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) includes determining, by the RAN node, that at least one ambient intemet-of-things (AIoT) device is within a vicinity of a remote object and determining whether the at least one AIoT device is authorized to participate in a sensing session.

Techniques are provided for backing up and restoring a file system or storage virtual machine located within a remote object store. A specification is parsed to identify resources associated with and including a primary resource hosted within a remote object store and to identify REST API endpoints of the resources. GET operations targeting the REST API endpoints of the resources are performed to retrieve the resources and properties of the resources. A link relationship specification is parsed to identify links corresponding to dependencies amongst the resources. A backup of the primary resource is generated to include the resources, the properties of the resources, and dependency information derived from the links. The backup can be used to restore the primary resource to the remote object store in manner that preserves the dependencies amongst the resources.
