  • EVENT DETECTION, EVENT NOTIFICATION, DATA RETRIEVAL, AND ASSOCIATED DEVICES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS
    Publication number: 20240078884
    Abstract: Methods and systems provided. A system may include a mobile surveillance unit positioned within an environment and including one or more sensors configured to detect one or more events occurring within or near the environment. The system may also include an application program configured to: cause, responsive to a detected event, a first data set associated with the event and captured by a first sensor of the one or more sensors to be conveyed from the mobile surveillance unit; and cause, responsive to the detected event, a second, different data set associated with the event and captured by a second sensor of the one or more sensors to be conveyed from the mobile surveillance unit.

  • Smoking article
    Patent number: 5345951
    Abstract: A smoking article in which a flavored aerosol is generated by heat transfer to a flavor bed from the combustion of a heat source is provided. The article generates substantially no sidestream smoke. The transfer of heat from the heat source to the flavor bed is accomplished by convective and radiative heat transfer.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 12, 1992
    Date of Patent: September 13, 1994
    Assignee: Philip Morris Incorporated

  • Smoking article
    Patent number: 5159940
    Abstract: A smoking article in which a flavored aerosol is generated by heat transfer to a flavor bed from the combustion of a carbon heat source is provided wherein the carbon heat source and the flavor bed are contained within a non-combustible substantially cylindrical hollow ceramic sleeve. The article generates substantially no sidestream smoke. The transfer of heat from the heat source is accomplished by convective and radiative heat transfer.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 22, 1988
    Date of Patent: November 3, 1992
    Assignee: Philip Morris Incorporated

  • Carbon heat source
    Patent number: 5076296
    Abstract: A carbonaceous heat source for a smoking article is provided. The heat source is designed to maximize heat transfer to a flavor bed in the smoking article. The heat source undergoes substantially complete combustion leaving minimal residual ash, has a relatively low degree of thermal conductivity and ignites under normal lighting conditions for a conventional cigarette.
