Patent number: 11983302Abstract: System and method are provided for assigning a service identifier for use by an IHS (Information Handling System), where a new service identifier may be assigned to the IHS due to replacement of hardware of the IHS. The IHS is provisioned with an inventory certificate that identifies hardware components of the IHS, including a service identifier for the IHS. Support provided for the IHS is tracked based on this service identifier. A hardware component of the IHS is removed, where the service identifier is assigned to this removed hardware component. A replacement hardware component is installed in the IHS. An updated inventory certificate is generated that assigns a new service identifier to the replacement hardware component installed in the IHS. The IHS is provisioned with the updated inventory certificate that specifies the new service identifier. Support provided for the IHS is now tracked based on the new service identifier.Type: GrantFiled: January 21, 2022Date of Patent: May 14, 2024Assignee: Dell Products, L.P.Inventors: Jason Matthew Young, Aaron M.

Publication number: 20240115824Abstract: Systems and methods can determine respiratory rates of a patient using a respiratory device by performing one or more frequency analyses of a signal from the gases flow. The signal from the gases flow can be one that varies with the patient's breathing. The system can include a non-sealed patient interface, such as a nasal cannula in a nasal high flow therapy, or any other patient interfaces. The respiratory system can also detect whether the patient has taken off the patient interface and/or whether the patient connected to the patient interface is talking or eating. Data of the patient's use of the respiratory system and the patient's respiratory rates can provide therapy compliance and long-term trend of use information and/or progress in the patient's respiratory functions and/or other physiological functions.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 30, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Inventors: Rhys Matthew James Williams, Charles Grady Cantrell, David Martin Russell, Brett James Ryan, Bryn Alan Edwards, Anton Kim Gulley

Patent number: 11921290Abstract: A display device includes a waveguide assembly comprising a waveguide configured to outcouple light out of a major surface of the waveguide to form an image in the eyes of a user. An adaptive lens assembly has a major surface facing the output surface and a waveplate lens and a switchable waveplate assembly. The switchable waveplate assembly includes quarter-wave plates on opposing sides of a switchable liquid crystal layer, and electrodes on the quarter-wave plates in the volume between the quarter-wave plates. The electrodes can selectively establish an electric field and may serve as an alignment structure for molecules of the liquid crystal layer. Portions of the adaptive lens assembly may be manufactured by roll-to-roll processing in which a substrate roll is unwound, and alignment layers and liquid crystal layers are formed on the substrate as it moves towards a second roller, to be wound on that second roller.Type: GrantFiled: January 8, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Magic Leap, Inc.Inventors: Roy Matthew Patterson, Chulwoo Oh, Ravi Kumar Komanduri, Charles Scott Carden, Michael Nevin Miller, Vikramjit Singh, Shuqiang Yang
