Publication number: 20240129259Abstract: A durability assessment system may receive a request, from a computing system, for a durability index describing an entity. The durability assessment system may determine the durability index based on information about the resource usage by the entity, such as a resource availability score or a resource allocation score. The durability assessment system may compare the obtained resource availability score and resource allocation score to ranges associated with a set of durability indices. Based on the comparison, the durability assessment system may determine a durability index for the entity. The durability index may indicate an ability of the entity to return accessed resources. In some cases, the durability assessment system may provide the durability index to an allocation computing system that is configured to determine whether to grant access to resources based on the durability index.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: Todd Duncan HOOVER, Brandi Nicole RECKER, William Charles GATES, Sean Patrick MCKEOWN, Matthew Richard JACKSON, Dinesh Hiro WADHWANI

Patent number: 11859778Abstract: In embodiments, a first light engine produces a first light spectrum having a first CCT. A second light engine produces a second light spectrum having a second CCT. The first light spectrum is emitted from a first region of an enclosure; a second light spectrum is emitted from a second region; and a mixture is emitted from a third region that separates the first and second regions. The second CCT is less than the first CCT; a difference between the first and second CCTs is at least 10,000K. The first light spectrum may have a first emission peak in a range of 450 to 480 nm and a second emission peak in a range of 380 to 420 nm. The second light spectrum may have a third emission peak in a range of 480 to 500 nm and a fourth emission peak in the range of 450 to 480 nm.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2022Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: Biological Innovation and Optimization Systems, LLCInventors: Robert Soler, Eric Schafer, Erica Voss, Michael Phillips, Duncan Jackson

Patent number: 10477646Abstract: Systems, devices, and techniques are provided for operating a display and/or an illumination source based upon the direction of a user's gaze and/or a desired illumination level in a monitored area. One or more elements may be controlled with sensor input and application lighting preferences. For example, when a user receives a video call, light may be activated to illuminate their face. When the user is looking at the display, the display will be at the brightness necessary for the lighting conditions. When the user looks away from the screen, the screen may dim further and the lighting elements for the desk can brighten. Similarly, embodiments may adjust the lighting in a monitored location based upon lighting levels identified in other areas.Type: GrantFiled: December 6, 2018Date of Patent: November 12, 2019Assignee: Universal Display CorporationInventors: Emory Krall, Ruiqing Ma, Michael Hack, Eoin Billings, Duncan Jackson

Publication number: 20180360606Abstract: An implantable controllable fluid flow valve structure for location within an anatomical tube such as a vein or artery, or between apertures in the walls of a vein and artery, is described. The structure has a relatively rigid tubular housing 1 with a tubular elastic cylindrical member 2 within it where the ends of the cylindrical member 2 are attached to the interior wall of the tubular housing 1. The space between the housing wall and the elastic cylindrical member can be increased, for example by pumping fluid 8 under pressure into it, which causes the elastic cylindrical member 2 to distend and thus reduce the flow cross-section of the valve. Mechanical means may be used to effect such distention. The valve structure is particularly useful for use as a valve to control flow through an arteriovenous fistula made surgically, and can also be used as an artificial sphincter.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2016Publication date: December 20, 2018Inventors: Paul LEONARD, Duncan JACKSON, Eoin BILLINGS
