  • Publication number: 20240148367
    Abstract: The systems and methods, in one embodiment, include a convolutional neural network (CNN) model trained by a modified version of the CycleGAN process. The CNN filters ultrasound images generated by a handheld ultrasound device to generate images that are perceptually similar to images generated by a cart-based ultrasound device in terms of quality. The resulting images look sharper and less noisy compared to the original inputs. The invention is a tool within the actions menu of a mobile app. When the tool is open, users can turn filtering on and off. The users will turn filtering on to reduce noise so they can reach the right scanning spot faster. After which because of body habitus, still there might be some noise that this tool can clean up. The user can then decide to have the filtering on or off during the diagnostic process.

  • Publication number: 20240005576
    Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method may include displaying vehicle environment awareness. In some embodiments, a visualization system may display an abstract representation of a vehicle's physical environment via a mobile device and/or a device embedded in the vehicle. For example, the visualization may use a voxel grid to represent the environment and may alter characteristics of shapes in the grid to increase their visual prominence when the sensors of the vehicle detect that an object is occupying the space represented by the shapes. In some embodiments, the visualization may gradually increase and reduce the visual prominence of shapes in the grid to create a soothing wave effect. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20140258183
    Abstract: A system that helps users get unstuck determines an archetype to which the user's stuck moment belongs and then provides a diagnosis and one or more tools. Each archetype has a corresponding prescription, each prescription has a corresponding computer-implemented tool. The diagnosis for the person determines a prescription for that person, and the prescription for that person determines at least one computer-implemented tool for that person to deal with the stuck moment.

  • Patent number: 7874602
    Abstract: An apparatus, in accordance with one embodiment comprises an upper portion; a lower portion comprising at least one terminal end having a receiving area formed on a first side of the lower portion, facing the upper portion, on which at least a looped handle may rest and a handling area formed on a second side of the lower portion opposite the first side forming a grip to lift the apparatus; and a connection mechanism for connecting the upper portion and the lower portion, wherein the connection mechanism allows the upper portion to swivel in relation to the lower portion, such that in an open position the looped handle may be placed on the receiving area, and in a closed position the upper portion swivels to cover the terminal end of the lower portion and the receiving area in a closed loop to secure the looped handle, eliminating possibility of the looped handle sliding off the receiving area and the terminal end of the lower portion.
